Deaf, Blind and Dumb

Describing the operations Of
the Canadian type of sales tax,
this distinguished economist
said:
"By reason of the general
setup of the tax, the con-
suner neUer knows that he is
paying. 1t is distinctly not
turnover tax; pyramiding is
effectively eliminated, and the
tax does not appear in direct
or Visible form in retail sales
prices"
With one exception, the
House Committee on Ways
and Means at the last Congress
urged the adoption of the
Canadian type of manufac-
turers' sales tax. But the House
revolted against its leadership
and would have none of it.
Now the leadership of the
House in this Congress not
only refuses to learn at the
expense Of Canada, but is
deaf, blind and dumb before
the lesson taught by its own
experience.
Even when testimony is ad-
duced before a Senate investi-
eating committee that none of
the partners in the most power

country has paid any income
tax in several years, the House

Navy Stronger Than Ours

Our danger lies in the pow
erful and aggressive navy of
Japan, from the Japan which
has been steadily provoked and
irritated by our dumb and dam
gerous habit of interfering in
matters which are none of our
concern. We scolded and hec-
tored Japan about her aggreS-
Sions in Manchuria and took
the naughty stand that never,
never would we countenance her
seizure of Manchuria. Well, I
don't think that Manchuria is
any of our business. 1 think
we have brought the japanese
from irritation to hot resent
ment, and finally to cold anger,
the kind of mood out of which
war springs SO easily.
The penalty for trying to pro-
tect a broken and diSorganized
China may very aptly be a war
to protect California and our
Pacific Coast. There is very
little question but that the Navy
takes that point of view. Other
wise why should our entire
naval strength have been taken
from the Atlantic and concen-
trated in the Pacific?
The truth is, Japan has taken
the bit in her teeth. She has
launched Napoleonic adven-
ture. She has drawn cards and
staked her future on the most
desperate gamble Of modern
times. She is determined to
stand or fall on her success in
building a new empire in the
heart of Asia. She has prac-
tically served notice that she
will fight Russia if Russia in
terferes, and she has more than
limited that she will figh5 the
United States if the United
States interfereS.
Her navy today is regarded
by competent authorities as
stronger in modern ships than
our own. She has speed, guns,
intrepidity, leadership, and an
absolutely fatalistic confidence
in victory. A million japanese
soldiers and sailors-tWo million
would die with shouts of joy
if their dying could ensure
greater glory for their Emperor
and greater power for their
country.

ACCEPT A FAIR AVERAGE.

Rich Evade, Poor Escape
Stupid Income Tax
By James T. Williams, Jr,

"FOOls," wrote Bismarck, "say
that they learn from their own
experience. 1 have always tried
to get my experience at the ex-
penSe of others"
Congress, however, refuses to
learn, either at the expense of
others or from its own expert
ence, the simple lesson taught
by the iniquities and utilities of
our existing income tax system.
The last Congress could have
learned this lesson by capt.
talizing the experience of Can
ada. The Canadian govern
ment is not socking Canadian
citizens Of modest income, by in
flicting on them an extortionate
income tax, under the delusion
that such a tax system will
"soak the rich"
Canada resorted long ago to
a general manufacturers sales
tax as the most equitable, least
burdensome, and steadiest reve-
nue. producer that could be de-
viSed.
This tax is imposed at the rate
of 4 per cent on the sale of all
goods, not exempt, produced or
manufactured in Canada or i'm
ported into Canada.
The fairness and feasibility Of
such a tax was reported to the
last Congress by IN eminent
authority-Dr. T. S. Adams,
professor of political economy
in Yale University.

Pedestrian Protection
The New Traffic Code

The District Commissioners have adopted revision of the
traffic code after months Of consideration.
The revision said to simplify to large extent the existing
regulations If that is the code will boon to au-
tomobile operators.
The present regulations complicated and so often
contradictory that motoris with the best intentions may
find himself violating have dozen rules at once
The code is designed to afford greater protection
the pedestrian
Such protection is greatly needed.
Although there still who have not attained to the
state Of afuence moderny connod by the ownership
automobile, we are all, at times, pedestrians.
The the drivers wheel apparently forgets this
soon he starts his motor
Most drivers to feel that the only function of
pedestrian at intersection is to jump
The code places quite different Interpretation upon
the status of the walker
Now if the police will remember the code and issue few
warnings to thoughss motorists the pedestrian may receive
Q measure Of consideration.

ONCE OVERS

that the person on the force
who has the least that is worth
saying, is the one who talks
the most.
The chatterer is a bore wher-
ever he may be found - the
woman chatterer is no better.
To monopolize the converse
tion, recount past experiences,
to tell stories not a whit more
interesting than the experiences
that others have had, is the
apparent end sought by the
loose tongue fellow.
But the idle conversationalist
does not know that there are
times and places for visiting,
but it is never the time or
place where others are working.
Don't let your desire for the
lirnelight make you a nuisance.
