say that the total of taxes collected
will be more. In the past tax in
creases have been on real estate. 1t
is high time to shift some of the bur-
den onto shoulders better able to bear
it and who receive more benefits from
government. Placing most of the tax
on general property has outgrown its
usefulness and belongs to the horse
and buggy age. Income taxes cannot
turn the trick of good tax gathering
system in a year or two but it is NOV
ing along the right line, and can be
improved as time goes on.
Government in the final analysis
is for the purpose of doing the great
est good to the greatest number of its
citizens. There can be no doubt that
a state income tax will be beneficial
to the greatest number and there
can be no doubt that there is
need for a more equitable tax gath
ering system and the Tightening of
the burden to the masses.
The statutory income tax bill in
troduced in the last session of the
Minnesota legislature was not perfect.
Naturally it was compromise of
various minds. objected to low ex-
emptiOns as did others. But the bill
was right in principle and deserved
the support of those who wish to shift
the burden of taxation. If there is a
special session of the Minnesota leg
islature 1 believe there is an excel
lent opportunity to pass this badly
needed remedial legislation in both
Houses, and Governor Floyd B. Olson
will sign the bill.

PARIS. Pl-Daytime frocks for
early fall are as rich in color as an
old-world masters canvas.
- new rich blue-green, Bordeau
red. and plum purple are among
the Outstanding tints, while tobacco
and wine browns, a warm taupe
grey. and a brilliant blue suggesting
sapphire are also seen. Most OF the
colors bespeak the spirit Of the har-
vest season.
Marocains, heavy crepe de chimes,
featherweihgt woods and velvets are
outstanding materials, since the new
fall fabrics have not yet made their
appearance.
Most Of the frocks are designed
with slightly longer skirts, close
fitting at he hips and fla-ing near
the kneeline.
A number OF them have fur trim
med scarves or waist-length jackets
to match, giving them a lightweight
wrap for cool days. A wine red jer-
sey frock with a white crepe vestee
has a pert red velvet waistlength
jacket buttoning high about the
throat and edged with black astra-
kan.
Another Of blue-green wool. de-
signed with a flaring skirt. has a
wide scarf Of the same material
with the ends tossing over the
shoulders. edged with dark brown
caracul.
Vestees and tight undersleeves Of
contrasting light color are smart new
notes on early frocks. Black marc
cain and romain frocks are designed
with white crepe de chine lace
trimmed vestees and tight white
sleeves reaching TO the elbow TO
meet the flaring black upper sleeve.
Plum-purple crepes have vests
and undersleeves Of ivory or cream.
Frocks OF ~taupe-grey are often
trimmed with deep brick-orange
in crustations to enliven the effect.
