ton Of all taxes and the payment Of
bonuses for the citizens at large.
It is all humorous. The leopard
has not changed its spots. The DEM
Ocrats have always been, and always
will be, committed to the theory that
there are more tax eaters than pay
ers, on taxing everybody in sight and
then hunting cut the few who may
be under the table. The change is,
because, having realized, as Chairman
Butler of the Republican National
committee recently said in his Phila-
delphia speech, that they were now
only torn and tattered fragments of
what once was a great party and that
the people of the nation are for the
president and economy, they have
adopted this course Outwardly at
least They are not for it because
they, the Democrats, believe in it, bat
because they feel 1t is politically nee
essary, and then being Democrats
they have adopted the program Of
trying to fool the people into the be.
lief that they invented it. In these
dull days if it were not for. the antic;
Of the Democrats in such cases thi;
would indeed be a sour world.
