GOOD TIMES TO

BANKERS TOLD
Load Must Be Lifted From
Business, Says Editor
at 36th Farley.

Artificial measures Of reStorins
prosperity win not prove successful
and despite the fact that stocks oi
goods everywhere are low and a re-
covery is due, good times can not
come while the unnatural and ter
rife lead Of taxes rests upon the
people"
This was the expression Of opin-
ion brought to the Indiana Bankers
Association today at the opening
session Of its thirty-sixth annual
convention, by Phil S. Hanna, editor
Of the Chicago Journal of Gem
merce.
Approximately 500 members and
their wives and friends are expect
ed to be present at the Claypool
tonight.
Hanna was the principal non
banker speaker at this afternoons
meeting. He followed w. A. Col
lings of Charlottesville, president Of
the association.
Where the cost Of government in
1913 took only 6ia cents out Of every
dollar of national income, indica-
tions are that in 1882 the tax col
lectors of state, federal, county and
local governments will try to collect
between 30 and 40 cents of each
dollar of the national income, Han
ma said.
The total of all taxes in 1918 was
s2,l00, 100000. The total this year
will be approximately $4,000, ,0O0. 900.

The reason that people did not
notice these mounting taxes until
recently is that during the palmy
days prior to 1890. credit was easy
and profits absorbed taxes read
ily. Almost everybody had ac-
cess to easy money, simultaneously
building Up the huge pyramid OF
borrowed money which since has
collapsed.
The event which pulled the

was the discovery that the bill

The vacuum set up by this dis
