Editorial Comment
The Tax Reduction Battle
Grand Forks, N. d., HERALD

Grand Forks N. d.. Herald)
1t has been predicted ever since the administra'
tons plans for tax reduction were announced that
the tax cutting bill would meet rough shedding
when 1t came before congress, and the present in
dcatiOns that these forecasts will be realized
In the face of Secretary Melons warning that the
maximum reduction justified by the condition OF
the treasury is $3.50, 100000 Senator Simmons, rank
ing democrat on the senate finance committee, has
expressed the view that 900 is the minimum
reduction which would be acceptable to his party.
Republican insurgents are also expected to jump
into the fight with demand for the retention OF
the publicity provision income taxes, which has
been shown to have about as much value as dogs
second tail, and which would be repealed under
the terms OF the administration bill. 1t is safe
bet that the insurgents will join with the demo
Gratis in demand for higher surtax rates on large
incomes than provided in the administration
bill.
This opposition will make the passage of the bill
difficult 1t may force modification of some of the
minor provisions But it is reasonably certain that
when the smoke has cleared away the public will
find that its federal tax burdens have been matcri-
ally reduced, and will place the credit for that
reduction where it belongs, with President Coolidge
and his busnesslike administration OF the nation
affairs

Dear Madonna of the Shows:
1t has been so long since ! have
written you that | wonder, Madonna
Mia. if you have an idea that have
forgotten you. If you have, please
dismiss it Immediately. because
think of you always, which means
every waking hour. But | have not
been in port for nearly week.
We have been having abominable
weather and ran into this out-of-the-
world place this morning. Of course
had not expected to touch this port
and consequently had no cabIegrams
or letters and had to rely on some
old paper that had been left there by
the last occasional ship, for any
news Of the world.
You can imagine my surprise and
JOY when happened to read your
name. You had sold your glorious
pearls to Paula Pericr and Karl
Whitney and had placed the money
in trust for your two boys. Don't
think that was happy at the
thought that you had sold your
pearls. Even though the CORE
spondent seemed to think that you
had some superstition about them
and had attributed much of the I'M
happiness that had come to you to
their possession and consequently
you had determined not to keep
+, them.

Something's Doing in Oklahoma

mysterious train of murders, extending back
period several years, has drawn the attention
OF the country to conditions existing among the
Usage Indians in Oklahoma.
Thus far nothing but the circumstances of the
murders has crept into the news dispatches. But,
whether you like to. read about murders or not, 1t
may pay to follow these dispatches
For during the next few days details of corruption
and oppression that will make you open your eyes
k,re likely to come out of Oklahoma.
Il It Is an open secret in Oklahoma that the Usage
land other-lndans there have been systematically
victmized by white for years
That, Of course, has been the common lot OF the
red since white reached America.
But we have flattered ourselves that in modern
times the Indian has enjoyed as good treatment as
lie could wish.
Disquietng stories from Oklahoma, however
contradict this. There hints Of persecution, o!
graft Of high handed swindles practiced just within
the law; tales of open robbery, OF greed that has
left Indians penniless and without redress; stories
that sound if they from medieval Russia
instead OF modern America.
The latest murder cases. fortunately will prob
ably bring these tales out into the open where the
rest OF the country read them.
g In that it is to he hoped that Americans will
be enough aroused to see that the wrongs are
srighted
s8 Watch Oklahoma. You muy learn something in
tcrestng.
