French Bankers Guilty
During the debate on the granting
of the Moroccan credits the Commu-

France was guilty of all the bloodshed
in Morocco, and that Abd-el-Krim was
fighting for the application of Will
sons doctrine of self determination of

Communists in prison for treason"
Painleve declared ne would deal
with the Communists as far as the
law allows" He added he would keep
the tri-color flying over Morocco in de-
Tense Of the sovereignty Of the sultan
and civilization"
That Painleve is keeping the tri-
color flying in defense OF the French
bankers is further shown in the fact
that the Spanish millionaire Horace
Echevarietta, and other capitalists
were entrusted with the mission of
delivering the French-Spanish peace
terms" to Krim. 1t is known that

But the terms of the agreement are
not wholly reassuring. Already Of
fetal Paris is convinced that Abd-el-
Krim, flushed by his successes in
withstanding the assaults. of the
worlds foremost military power, will
ask for better terms than those pro
posed at Madrid.
Abd-el-Krim is expected to refuse
the joint French-Spanish prefer of
Riffian autonomy under a Spanish
protectorate. If he renews his old
proposal to accept autonomy under a
French protectorate, he will seriously
embarrass the Madrid accord for the
rebellious Riff territory is under
Spain.

here at home is the revival by the

UNDERWOOD URGES
PRE-WAR TAX RATE
Calls Income Levy Policy of
C0nfiSCation and Bar
to Business.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MONTGOMERY, Ala, June 10
Prompt return to prewar income
2 per cent and a maximum surtaX of
13 per cent, was urged here last
night by Senator Oscar w. Under
wood of Alabama. in an address be-
fore the State meeting of Alabama
Tax Clubs.
This surtax is approximately one
half of that proposed in the Mellon
plan and one-third of the maximum
in the present law, which was Wit
ten by a coalition of Democrat ana
Republican insurgents.
Senator Underwood also proposed
a reduction of estate taxes from the
present maximum of 40 per cent TO
the pre-war rate of 10 per cent
Hits Some Bureaus.
The Alabama senator, who had a
prominent part in the writing of the
first income tax law, said he be-
lieved the pre-war rates would furn-
ish the needed revenue, but added
that if they did not he would give
the President blanket authority to
abolish Government bureaus, and
there are many of them that are
mere conveniences and not govern
mental necessities until our eXpendl-
lures did not exceed our revenues.
I'm other words" he declared, Il
would slow down the Government
before 1t slows down the business OF
the nation"
Condemning the present rates on
accumulated wealth as conflscatory,
Senator Underwood asserted that the
power to tax lis just as potent a
factor to use in the destruction of pri-
vate property as the red flag or the
lighted torch
Pointing out that as early as 1918
a Democratic Secretary of the Treas
ury urged reduction of the wartime
surtax rates and that another Demo
cratic Secretary of the Treasury re-
newed that recommendation year or
more later Senator Underwood said
Congress had failed to make more
than small reduction.
Not grasping the fundamental
principle that taxes are paid out OF
the accumulation of the poor, as we'll
as the rich. and can only be amassed
by labor he said, "the Congress,
fearing criticism if it reduced any tax

assessed against wealth, continued its
policy of confiscation.
Under the law of 1916 Uhe prewar
tax law nearly 80 per cent of the
revenue was derived from incomes of
over 100000, and in 1921 only Az
per cent came from that source. Your
laws had made it more profitable for
the citizen of large means to aba andon
productive enterprise and invest his
money where he need not fear con-
fiscation
The loss is really greater to the
country than it is to the individual.
He contents himself with a safe in
veStment and a limited income, but
the community that is seeking capital
for new enterprises or money for new
development of any kind must pay
extraordinary rates of interest to get
it, which in the end usually falls on
the public to pay.
Here is where we have arrived.
We have levied our taxes so high that
we have chased much of the capital
of the country into hiding and have
reduced our revenue thereby. We un-
doubtedly are slowing down the pro-
ductive enterprise of the country. We
are encouraging violations of the law
and making men regard their Govern
ment as an evil to be avoided.
