Revenue From
Sales Taxes

The sensational increase in mis-
cellaneous internal revenue collec-
tions, which include the tobacco.
beer and other sales and stamp
taxes, indicated that for a full
years operation on the present
basis more than $1,500,000, 900
would be obtained from that
source.
Approximately ss50,oo0,o 900
will be received from these sources
the fiscal year ending June so. This
is contrasted to about S770,OOO,-
900 for income taxes. In the 1892
fiscal year the miscellaneous col
lection was $5O3,000,0O O and that
from income taxes $1,O57, 900, 900.
The manufacturers sales tax and
other new levies of the 1892 reve-
nue. act went into effect in July,
1882. Revenue from most of the
taxes were satisfactory despite the
low estate of business. Gradually
the miscellaneous taxes passed the
income tax until they now show
an excess of nearly $20O,O00,o 900
although the heavily boosted in
come tax rates were effective be-
ginning with the March payment.
Several factors account for the
increase. The warm weather ha,
brought out the beer drinkers and
furthermore, the supply and quail
ity of the new beverage has i'm
proved. There has been a seasona
increase in the gasoline tax, while
the Governments revenue from
the transfer tax on stocks has in
creased along with the more active
stock market.
OTHER sales taxes undoubtedly
have gained owing to the improve
ment in business generally. Or
the other hand there has been q
seasonal decline in the electric ener-
gy tax.
The Governments deficit is re-
naming at about a billion dollar:
under last year, with the present
excess of expenditures at $1,710,-
0O0, 1000.

FOREIGNERS AND CRIME

IN the light of an investigation con-
Quoted BY the New York Times. it appears
that the oft-repeated assertion that our
foreign-born population supplies the ma
iority of our criminals is wrong.
Figures given show that so far as muir
ders are concerned. the greatest number
per 100000 OF population occur in cities
with the smallest number of foreign-born.
Memphis. with foreign-born popuia-
ton of only S.5 percent, has murder rate
Of 60, the largest in the country Jackson
vile, with percent of foreign-born, has
q murder rate Of Sit. Nashville. per-
cent fOreign-born: murder rate 38.T.
On the other hand, New York City
with SO percent of foreign-born, has muir
der rate of only So per 10000: Lowell.
Mass, 81 percent foreign-born, murder
rate IT.
OF course, the above figures do not in
dicate the actual number Of murders COM
mitted By foreign-born, as compared with
native-born. but they do show that large
foreign-bcrn population does not neeessar-
ily mean high murder rate. but quite the
reverse.
Il appears that we must look for diff
ferent explanation Of the prevalence Of
CRIME in the United States.

AN UNJUsTIFIED POLICY

Here is worth while quotation, from
an article by Thomas Woodlock in the Wall
Street Journal: I'VE take rivers and spend
hundreds of millions Of taxpayers mon
ey to make and maintain channels on which
tugs and barges may ply free of cost. We
allow these barges to charge what they
please for carrying freight for port-to-port
rates and these charges are not regulated,
nor even-appa always public We
take some more taxpayers money and put
government tugs and barges on the rivers
and forego return on their cost. And we
compel the rail carriers to permit these
water lines to infilterate wide territory
outside which is naturally tributary to the
rivers. Upon what theory of fair dealing
can such policy be justified?n
Mr.. Woodlock might likewise have
asked: Upon what theory of economies
can such a policy be justified? Our wa
terways have been almost national scan
dal for decade They have cost us more
millions of dellars than we care to count.
They have deprived the railroads which
pay heavy taxes, maintain their own equip
memo and take their chances on making a
profit without benefit of governmental
subsidies of q vast amount of freight, and
have thus been an important contributing
factor to railroad unemployment and re-
mission of return to railroad investors.
Mr.. Woodlock points out that we now
have National Recovery Act. . prime pur-
pose of which is to bring about fair compe-
tition, in all types Of industry. In the OPP
Grafton Of the Act government would do
well to begin at home with revamping of
the waterway situation.
