MississippiIs Sales Tax.

From the Appleton Post-Crescent
The operation Of general sales tax
is having an interesting demonstration
in Mississippi. Enacted as an emer-
gency measure to provide State revenue,
it appears to be working out success
fully and with little quibbling from the
taxpayers. Having become effective last
June, receipts from this source to Sep
tember 1 were over $500 900, indicating
an annual revenue In excess Of $4,000
600.
Mississippi's sales tax law provides
for per cent tax on all retail sales,
with the obligation for collection gen.
orally left to the individual merchants
The tax Is added to cash purchases or
to the total of monthly statements. 1t
applies also to the receipts of doctors,
lawyers, dentists, BARRIERS and all pro-
fessional or personal service occupa-
tions, but not to labor.
Variations frcm the per cent rate.
either above or below, apply to special
lines of merchandise, such as automo-
biles, gasoline and tobacco, which are
also subject to Federal tax.
Thus the tax reaches every person
who spends money, including the many
who own no property and who would
otherwise pay no taxes. 1t Is this equi-
table distribution of the tax burden
which bases the arguments Of those
who, advocate this method Of raising

"You Old Potato

The long ana anxiously awaited rap
prochement between Gov. Roosevelt
and former Gov. Smith occurred last
night, naturally and gracefully. 1t took
place at the New York State Demo-
cratic Convention, where they found
common interest in the naming OF
! Lieut. Gov. Herbert H. Lehman for
Governor, against the opposition OF
/ Tammany Hall. If Mr.. Smith has been
/ lodging the issue OF reconciliation,
evading the question, maintaining even
editorial silence on the subject while
! launching his new venture upon the
! periodical sea- it has perhaps been with
an eye upon the dramatic opportunity
for public greeting and handclasp. 1t
may be that there has been private
understanding to this effect. Certainly
| confidence has been expressed by the
Governors campaign managers that in
good season the former Governor would
! declare for the ticket, even as he had
previously declared for the party.
Whether spontaneous or studied, the
manner in which the former Governor
greeted the present Governor last night
at Albany was most happy accost.
You old potato" The utter freedom
OF the phrase must have swept away all
the bitterness of chagrin. No man can
be called an "old potato" without a
warming of his heart None can call
another by such title without sim
cerity Researchers into the language
of endearment will find no sweeter
symbol of perfect unity of hearts and
minds.
There is hint Of important develop
ments in this resumption of cordial
relations between the Governor and his
predecessor in that Office, between. in
deed, the Democratic candidate for
President and his predecessor in that
| role. They were standing together in
behalf of the nomination of man
whom they mutually admire, respect
and trust for the highest Office in the
State, against the Vaccinations and
the opposition of Tammany Hall. Mr.
Smith is a member of Tammany,
sachem of the order. Does this new
commitment forecast his entry into
campaign to reorganize Tammany,
perhaps his own elevation to the post
of leader?
But interest at present centers in
the effect of the public reconciliation
upon the presidential prospect of the
Governor. 1t cannot be questioned
that it is frightened. AS long as Mr..
Smith refrained from specific in
dorsement Of the Democratic ticket he
was a serious liability. Now that he
has clasped the Governors hand in
public and called him an "old potato"
in atfectionate greeting, he is to be
rated as an asset.

CatalOnian Wisdom.
From the Schenectady Gazette

from the Schenectady Gazette
Plans practically completed for ar
autonomous Catalan state within the
Spanish republic direct attention again
TO an interesting situation that exists
within the boundaries of many ma
lions. We know, of course, of minorities
OF different racial stocks that cause
| problems in various countries.
But IN others are groups that desire
measure OF independence. and vet
which wish TO form part of a large.
state with other groups having similar
aspirations and ideals.
The United States, of course. hardly
comes within this category. We are
rather melting pot for MANY races
whose national characteristics have been
submerged in fusing with the others.
Except, perhaps, in the Southwest. where
q large Spanish element exists. the
English language is in Nation wide use
While some immigrants cling to their
mother tongues their children or GER
talniy grandchildren make use OF
Anglo-SaXon in every day affairs.
10 go North. however, We find French
Quebec in the Dominion of Canada.
While few. probably. would care for a
reunion with France. nevertheless the
language OF that country has equal
recognition with English. In South
Africa We find Afrikander, a form of
Dutch, recognized officially with Eng
hsh. while the customs Of the two
countries intermingle.
In Canada those of French descent
IN South Africa those of Dutch. are
among the leaders of those nations.

recognized as such in all ways.
Catalonia might. by force of arms
or otherwise. declare and maintain its
independence of Spain. But its area
would be strictly limited, with no op-
portunity for expansion. Incorporated
as an autonomous part OF Spain.
Catalan leaders will certainly, as time
passes. take part in leadership of the
whole Iberian Peninsula framing Span
Sh policy and attaining power to an
extent otherwise impossible
Minorities held in subsection have
ample ]ustlflcation for demanding con-
ceSsions from those in dominant posi-
ton. But where they are accorded
fair treatment, history shows that time
and again through sheer ability they
have forged to the front and have
actually become leaders Of the so-called
majority.
Catalonians becoming an integral
part of the Spanish republic will doubt
less gain far more than were they to
a~ist on maintaining their complete
independence as a small Mediterranean
republic.

Moon and the Pacific.
om the Oakland Tribune

from the Oakland Tribune.
The breadth and depth of the Pacific
and the proximity of the moon have
given some astronomers, and not all
amateur ones. an idea which for some
time has been current in popular dis
cussions. In some plastic period they
say, the moon was thrown off" this
globe, went whirling in space until it
found its little orbit, and the cavity
which was left became the Pacific.
So many have accepted this theory
that, at last. well credited astronomer,
DR.. Neuberg of Meissen, Germany,
comes forward to show the impossibility
OF any such cosmic incident. He says
the material contained in the moons
mass is some thirty-one times as great
as any material contained in the Pacific
Ocean, even If the space of that ocean
had originally been Occupied by solid
land. If the earth and moon were
once united, as the astronomical
chances are that they were, it was
when they were thrown of together
from the sun. THE earth and the
moon are sisters, not mother and child
the moon, indeed, little sister, but
too large ever to have been a fragment,
after the earth had assumed its globu-
lar form and cooled to rigidity Of sub
tance."
The Neuberg announcement, while of
course not new to astronomers, has
caused the amateurs and the writer's
a brief period Of discussion. One such
on the New York Sun observes that
SO far as we see or know the moon
exists entirely for the benefit of the
inhabitants of the earth. It affords
pleasing and helpful degree of light
for certain number of nights in each
month. And this light really does not
come from the moon except as it is
reflected from the sun. The moons
operations are quite feeble as compared
with what must be the privilege en-
joyed by the inhabitants of Jupiter
If Jupiter has any inhabitants, which Is
altogether unlikely. For Jupiter has no
less than nine satellites, at least three
of which are as big as. If not bigger
than. our moon. and their nocturnal
illumination must be correspondingly
brilliant and continuous. Why the
earth, which Is inhabited by ostensibly
intelligent beings, should have been put
of with one satellite, while Jupiter
presumably an uninhabitable mass, has
nine, Is matter which neither astrono-
mer nor philosopher can explain.

course on the part of the club owner
ship. The fact that johnson has been
at the head of the team for four years
] without winning pennant Is not in
itself full justification Of change, for
only one club out of eight can win the
pennant, ahd the chances are always
against that triumph. 1t may be and
probably is the fact that the supreme
command" feels that the once great
pitcher has not the quality of handling
men to get the utmost out Of them on
the ball field. Base ball managership is
an exacting responsibility and calls fer
something more than knowledge of the
technique of the game. It requires
psychological understanding and diff
ferentiating capacity in dealing with
widely varying temperaments.
OF immediate interest is the matter of
the succession Who will be the new
manager? Will he be one of the present
players on the Washington team, or an
outsider? Local public feeling doubtless
favorS the former course. There are
several of the present team who would
appear to have the managerial quality.
OF only slightly secondary interest is
the question of Johnson's future Base
bail is his profession and he will proba-
bly, remain in it. The fact that he did
not win pennant for Washington will
not preclude the possibility of such
success in another field, perhaps in one
OF the two big leagues, perhaps in a
lesser organization. But wherever he
goes. in whatever capacity he will have
the affection and the best wishes of the
people of Washington before whom he
has appeared for SO many years as
player and as manager.

Our Foreign Affairs.

With reference to international re-
lations, it cannot be said of the two
leading candidates for the presidency,
as Bismarck said Of Lord Salisbury, that
they are foreign to affairs" Yet, with
the campaign fewer than five weeks
to go, it is strange that neither Presi-
ent Hoover nor Gov. Roosevelt has
devoted any special attention to the
world concerns of the United States.
How real, how complex, how numerous,
how far flung these are was detailed
in a dispatch to The Star yesterday
from Mr.. Paul Scott Mowrer at Geneva.
They ramify from Europe to Asia and
into South America. Most of them are
at this moment causing the deepest
heart searching at the League OF Ma
tions, but to date none has bulked at
all conspicuously in the contest for
the American presidency.
President Hoover, as he did again at
Des Moines last night, consistently
diagnoses the country's economic ills as
basically due to world eruption. In
the corn country. as was natural, he
dwelt upon the importance of foreign
markets to the American farmer. He
made two significant statements in that
connection. The President said he would
appoint representative of agriculture
to the forthcoming world economic con-
ference, and he indorsed the use Of
annual payments on war debts for the
specific purpose of expanding foreign
markets for American farm products.
But the country has still to be initiated
into the details of these projects. Just
what our farm representative is to do
at the economic conference, or just how
it is proposed to expand the foreign
market" for American agriculture, Mr..
Hoover does not indicate.
