WRONG PREMISES

Bismarck, N. Oak.
Oct. q, 1892.
Dear Mr.. Wright:
Receipt of your communication as
of the 18th inst. with copies OF your
publication, "Tax Reduction Club"
is hereby acknowledged.
Since you solicit my opinion on the
subject, I shall gladly submit the
following brief statement: The tax
reduction idea Is rife the country
over. We have similar movement
here IN North Dakota. very actively
engaged in this work. Five tax-reduc-
ton measures were initiated and
passed in the recent primary through
the instrumentality of our associa-
ton.
There is no question but that the
taxes, relic of the senseless infla-
tion of the war period, are too high
and entirely out of all proportion to
our ability to pay. However, it is my
firm opinion that the tax problem is
not the fundamental source of the
economic plight the world suffers to-
day. 1t is only a symptom, an Incl
dental OF the real cancer which has
been slowly but inexorably Destroy
ing the economic life of all the civil
lied nations. That cancer is excess
sive interest, too easy credits and the
ABUSE OF it, Superinduced by high
pressure craftsmanship, the result of
1t being that scarcely a single po-
litical subdivision, from township
unit to the nation, exists without a
hNn6oH iro -
The interest is out of proportion to
the earnings of the people. We hear
Sc much about the wealth being con.
centrated in few hands. This is
only natural under this system. So
long AS we permit the great interna-
tional bankers and master financiers
to control all money and credits the
result Is inevitable.
The capitalistic system with it's at
tendant high interest is accountable
for bankrupt world. That the evil
is man-made is proved by the fact
that no primitive people ever suffers
from the disease-it is wholly a prod
uct of the devilish ingenuity of So
called civilization.
In your Booklet No. s. is leading
editorial Voters to Decide Tax Prob

which is that 1.-THE first big task" of
the voters is to carefully scrutinize
every candidate for public office and
by their ballots weed out the goats"
and undesirable incumbents. select
Ing only the hest obtainable" etc.
The inference is that the trouble of
high taxes is ascribaole to extrava-
cant and inefficient officials. Since
when was this discovered? cannot
agree that our present crop of in
cumbents should have so suddenly

HOLLYWOOD, Calf, April Is
They all quail, even the Broadway
veterans, before that devastating
moment when the curtain lifts to
disclose all Hollywood out there in
front, seated in judgment.
It was no surprise to me then
to hear Colleen Moore confess
that she's panicky about Sunday
night.
With four days yet to go before
the premiere of "A Church Mouse" "
Colleen and her husband, AL Scott,
motored here yesterday from
Santa Barbara and took up quar-
tiers on the top floor of a Beverly
Hills apartment hotel.
Talking with me little while
later, Colleen confided her fears.
'"The only thing that may save
me-" she said, "is the fact that 1T
doesn't matter if l fall right flat
when l make my entrance. At the
start of the play, I'm a scared
young girl applying for a secre,
tary's job. I'm called on to be

I'm enthusiastic about the stage.

made me offers and if they can
find a good play, I'll probably
have a try at Broadway next WIN

Colleen likes her current role
very much. 1t allows her to start
off with the kind of characterize
ton she did on the screen-bangs
and all-and later to undergo a
transformation into a SophlStl-
Gated young woman. =.
When I questioned her about
a film comeback she didn't show
much interest. Yet 1 have an
idea it's in the back of her mind
At any rate she plans to re-
main here at least a month,
maybe two or three. The Mar
tin Flavins have her Beverly Hills
home until May 4, but she plans
to take it over at that time.
After that, it's up to her hus-
band.
