standing, and that it shares all their
experiences in life. They see only
what is unfiattering to them, and I'M
derstand only that they themselves
are rSade uncomfortable. Instead of
establishing bond between them
selves and the child, they resent its
going to meetings of the groups
where it is learning these things that
are so humiliating to them. They
are annoyed because it gets into trou-
bic with its teacher in the school.
Their vanity is hurt-and no pain is
more severe than hurt vanity-by the
pitiless criticism of the child. There
are many conflicts in the life of the
parents, especially if their commun-
ism is not yet deeply rooted-has
not yet become motive force.
Thus the new relations between
adults and children is developing in
the Junior Groups and will finally
find its way into the homes of the
proletariat. There is no economic
dependence between the leaders
(teachers) Of the Junior Groups and
the children themselves. There is
no form of coercion to bring the
children into the groups. Inside of
them the life is that of a completely
free community. The adult who PLAYS
and works with the children depends
upon the confidence and trust of the
young members. His superiority is
only that of a more experienced elder.
1t is his principal task to arouse as
much independent initiative as pos
sible in the chillren. Their conflicts
in the school, their agitation and re-
cruiting work among their playmates
and school fellows strengthens their
self confidence and their critical
powers.
Children naturally expect and de-
pend upon the support of the adults.
The bourgeois educational system
utilizes this inclination to make the
children conform to rules and regu-
iations which assure the comfort and
peace of the adults. Communist
education teaches the child to over
come this inclination and to accus-
tom himself to independence.

MELONS PLAN
AIDS PROFITEERS

Huge Profits Total al

By LELAND OLDS
(Federated Press Industrial Editor

First article of a series)
Millionaire war profiteers will skin
out of paying their share Of the
cost Of the war if MELONS scheme
for reducing the taxes of the rich
is put over. Huge profits totalinQ
at least $17,OOO,O 900, 900 have been
held undisturbed awaiting this golden
moment when surtaxes would be re-
duced. If Mellon gets away with
his little game just watch these
stored up profits pour out in extra
dividends.
Corporate incometbetween 1918 and
1920, according to a c-.-ful study of
income tax figures by the National
Bureau of Economic Research,
amounted to the extraordinary total
of S55,922, 100000. The major part
OF this was war profits resulting from
the exorbitant prices which boosted
the cost of the war. After deducting
all taxes and all deficits there re-

If the wealthy owners of industry
had chosen to distribute the entire
$39, 1886, 100000 as it poured into the
corporate treasures a larger share
of the excessive profits would have
been taken by the government in sur
taxes. Thus the fnanciers whose
profteering did so much to boost the
cost of the war to unheard of
heights would have borne somewhere
near their share Of the burden. But
like good slackers they preferred to
draw out in cash only little over
half of the total, approximately $685.

pies tax gatherers.
The huge surplus profits stored
away by certain leading corporations

Undivided profits,

wouldn't you like to be security
owner when Melons surtax reduc-
ton gives the signal for the divid-
ing up of these spoils?
If you could examine the stock
holders books Of these corporations
you would probably locate a lot of
the support for Melons bill in con-
gress. Of course part of these
totals has been reinvested in the
several industries and has afforded
the basis for stock dividends which
were issued after the supreme court
had ruled them free from income
tax. But the biggest part can still
be located in hard cash or in nego-
table securities.
To most Of us the $23, 900, 1000, 900
in dividends already taken would
seem pretty fair haul. In fact
we might figure that the other ST.
00,000,000 could fairly be considered
as belonging to the people who paid
the high prices and accepted the low
wages which made such swollen
profits possible. That's the idea be-
hind the proposal of the Peoples
Reconstruction league for a progress
sive tax to be levied on these I'M
distributed profits. Such tax would
help to pay off the national war debt
rapidly and would do more to light
en- the real tax burden than Melons
whole program.

NEW YORK. Feb. 2.--Under pr4-

The average number Of miles per day
made by freight cars increased from
27,1 in November. 1922, to 29.1 in No

One of the most hopeful develop
