significance attaches to the fact that all representa-.

"Our war debt still remains" the president OBJ
serves by way Of approaching the subject Of tax reduc-
tion in his message to Congress. And what follows
must suggest that also the war debt still remains the
presidents bette noire. One might suspect, indeed. that
nothing gives him more anguish, unless it be the in
gratitude which some farmers are manifesting toward
the ey-McCumber Act. It is not until one con-
templates the anxiety which the war debt occasions
him that one can appreciate the magnanimity the
president shows in asserting even to the small meas
ue Of tax reduction that it is intended to grant. The
president makes it pretty plain that if he could have
his own way, unhindered by the exigencies Of politics.
the whole of the surplus would be used in buying IN
war debt, and no part for tax reduction. Yet there
are those who must feel that a reduction from $26.-
soc, 100000 to S17,975,000,00O in ten years makes the
impotence shown by the president a bit unseemly.
Keeping the Nations credit high is a tremendously
profitable operation" the president observes, after
that the government can now borrow money
at less than 4 per cent. Yet itfs likely that il i a

Of faith in the governments solvency that has had most
to do with bringing about the lower interest rate.
which he credits altogether 20 debt reduction.
The unexpressed thought seems to Turk in the
mind that the country should be content
with the tax reduction that has already been vouch-
safed to ii. THE three measures already enacted
leave our government revenues where they are not op-
prssive. Exemptions have been increased until 49,
100000 pople make but 100000 individual taxable re-
turns. so that further tax reduction should be mainly
for the purpose Of removing inequalities" The fact
that the burden has been so concentrated may, to
some. appear to be proof Of the oppressiveness which
the president says does not exist.
