WHAT CREATES WEALTH?

Government cannot create wealth 1t can only
spend it.
That economic axiom was recently. pointed out
by B, c. Forbes in commenting the delusion
that government has limtless purse, that it can
pull bundles of cash out of a magic hat, that "a
day of reckoning never comes"
Every cent spent by political organisms must be
supplied by the taxpayer. And 9that term "taX-
payer" means every person in the country who
has job any savings, piece of, property, bust
ness, or a dollar to spend. 1t means the day la
bOrer as well as the bank president-the clerk as
well the executive. In fact, the clerk and the
day laborer have the most to lose from tax ex-
trayagance and the most to gain from tax econ
omy. Government. cannot be supported by taxing
weath-there aren't enough of them to make a
dent in the budget. The great bulk of its revenue
comes from indirect taxes clothes, fOod-a
the necessities and Injuries which the average
man and woman of small income buys. Wealth is
created when. capital is used to provide facilities
with which men can work to produce goods and
commodities and services that the people need and
want. Potential wealth is lost when the burden of
taxation makes impossible this capital investment
when it stiles at the source the Jobs and op-
portunities that would otherwise be provided.
Tax reduction is in The interest of every worker,
every farmer, every business and professional man.
1t would produce Jobs, develop industries-,and
make more taxable wealth. And there is only one
way can have tax sreductionFby spending less
tax money.-Morganton News-Herald.

Business Women'S Golf.

Business Women's Golf.
ITELEN HICKS, one of the most
famous of all woman golfers,
has decided to go into a new
game under the heading of business
women's golf.
A year ago Miss Hicks came to me
and asked what thought of the idea
The only advice to give was to take
little time to think it over and then
use her own judgment.
This is the first experiment o. the
kind made on this side of the At
lantic. Over a year ago Joyce Weth-
cred, the most famous of all woman
golfers, made the same experiment in
England. giving advice and instruc-
ton and otherwise making a living
out of the game.
Miss Hicks felt after a years con-
sideration that it was time for her to
make the same move. She has
grown tired of competitive golf, which
seems to wear women down more
than it does men. She told me that
the competitive side of the game hac
lost its appeal and lure for her over
a year ago. In addition to this, ANA
teur golf, when 1t comes to extensive
tournament play. is an extremely
costly undertaking.
Miss Hicks venture along this line
will be an interesting experiment to
watch. For one thing, she believes
good woman player can teach women
to play golf better than can q man.
With her extremely attractive person
ality she is almost certain to make
success out of her turn from the ANA
teur highway. ..--..... ..-.

OverlOOks Two Points.

~ ONNELLY overlooked two rules
in the base ball book when he
made that decision. Rule 80
says the ball is dead and not in play
in case fair hit ball strikes a base
runner or umpire before touching a
fielder" And Rule AZ says the base
runner shall be entitled, without liza
bility to be put out, to advance one
base if, while the batsman. he
becomes a base runner if a
fair hit ball strike the person or
clothing of the Umpire before
touching a fielder"
According to these rules there was
no play on the ball permissible after
it had bounced off Donnelly's un-
derpinning and Manush was clearly
entitled to take first base without
risk
Feeling that Manush deserved the
hit, despite Donnelly's ruling, the
official scorer of the game appealed
to President Harridge. That official
promptly ordered the drive to be
scored a single, but said that under
the circumstances it would be neces-
sary to let stand the assist given
Knickerbocker and the put-out given
Trosky.
