What's Your Reaction?

Little did we know Saturday, as we typed off the lines which appeared in last nights Democrat about Alfred E. Smiths attack on the Roosevelt monetary pro- gram, that "A hours later the dynamic and hard-hitting radio crusader, the Rev Charles E.. Coughlin of Detroit, would lambast with might and main the former New York governor and democratic na- tional leader Of course it was in the air that MT Smith would be taken to task for his sudden and unprecedented attack on the president. We might have known that Father Coughlin would be the first to discard gloves and hit with bare knuckles.
 We don't doubt but what the radio ad- dress of the militant priest on Sunday was listened to by millions of people, They weren't aware as positive fact that he would discuss the Smith attack, but they seemed unconsciously to feel that he would And he certainly did not disap- point his hearers in this respect. Even the most ardent of Smith followers were forced to admit that Father Coughlin left nothing to the imagination in his terse. but vivid criticism of Al Smith.
 Just what the reaction of the nation will be (for the entire nation is vitally in- terested in this one-sided feud that Smith seems to be carrying on with Roosevelt) is hard to say. But we'll wager that right here in New England, where both Alfred E. Smith and Franklin D. Roosevelt are held in the highest esteem, the formers reputation has suffered considerably. There have been many explanations of his remarks of last week. No one doubts for an instant but what he spoke as earnestly and as truthfully as he ever has. He al- ways had the courage of his convictions and still retains it despite the pummeling he has taken and will absorb in the days to come. But why he believed 1t neces- sary to come forward with his statements when he did is an enigma
 Out of the entire mess (we call it that, because we have always had warm spot in our heart for Smith and think that he received a raw deal from his party In 1928) the president emerges even a big ger figure than ever. The Smith attack has not lessened his influence one bit nor has it made MT Roosevelt any less deter mined to pursue his avowed monetary policies. While the Smith criticism may result in other public figures coming for ward and siding with his viewpoint, It will not change public opinion one bit. We are convinced that President Roose- welt has the support of the public despite an imposing array of opponents.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1933-11-28
Higher Inheritance Tax

One of the unpleasant jobs Uncle Sam will have to take on in the near future IS the task of finding new ways to get money. Nobody likes the idea of higher taxes. Nobody denies that mounting tax rate is bad for business. Nobody, rich or poor, gets any particular kick out of paying his taxes.
 But nobody, on the other hand, can look at the vast sums that are being spent these days without realizing that some new sources of revenue will be necessary in the not-distant future Never before, save in war time, has the government spent at it's present rate. This money can't be plucked out of thin air.
 All of which brings us up to the latest declaration of Senator George w. Nor ris of Nebraska who urges heavy stiff fleming of the inheritance tax by the next Congress. Here is an idea which cuts two ways. Not only would it provide the government with badly needed money; It could be made into a weapon to promote that more equitable distribution of wealth which seems to be one of the goals of the era now beginning.
 In considering an inheritance tax, 1t would be we'll to get clear picture of the exact nature of the things it would be expected to accomplish. Such law remarks Senator Norris, "should allow liberal exemption-an exemption even large enough so that the beneficiary might live the remainder of his life in luxury and then it should be increased by progress sive steps so that the residue of the for tune would be passed back to the people through this method of taxation, and thus be returned to the government.
 Every man who manages to lay aside little surplus has the right to seek to pro- vide for his children. That should be pos sible, under even the stiffest sort of in- heritance tax law. But the idea of preserv- ing a vast fortune intact through gen. eration after generation, and preserving with it the great power that goes with extreme wealth, handing wealth and power down to those who have done noth- ing to earn them-that is something else again, and we properly can keep it in mind in framing our law.
 There need not be any "soak the rich" kinge to such step. Uncle Sam needs ,severy dime he can get; the country as 2 whole needs to do something about the )ongealing of great wealth in the hands Df a fortunately born few. Both goals can be reached through sane revision of kha inheritance tax.
