THE s1MDO INCOME PEOPLE

New houses are needed for a great
mass of people whose incomes are
less than $1,000 a year, said DR.. Paul
Douglas of Chicago to the National
League of Women Voters. He felt
the people should seek less for
beautifully designed public and Office
buildings, and think more OF those
who are now living in miserable
slum houses.
1t is not easy in large cities, at
least. to put up buildings on the
basis of present costs. in which these
low income people can AFFORD to rent
apartments, Some plan for getting
the costs of construction down is
needed. But it is hard to bring up
good citizens in crowded human
hives where dirt and disorder pre-
vail. .-...- ..... 49,.

WHAT BECOMES OF LIQUOR TAX
MONEY?

Government oficials are disap'
pointed with liquor tax receipts
Beer taxes appear to be fairly re-
munerative, but income from othei
levies has been such as to indicate
the American public wasn't as
thirsty for cocktails as might be ex-
pected. at the end of long dry spell
That seems strange. The newly
opened liquor stores are doing a
rushing business. Hotel trade has
increased noticeably. Liquor adver-
tising has been extensive. In fact,
there is every indication that liquor
has been, and is being. sold and
served in large quantities. But
what becomes of the tax money?
The suggestion that there should
be an investigation already has been
made in several legislatures. The
political mind is like that. First it
enacts a law, ignoring the obvious
ly-needed safeguards. Then it de-
mands an investigation. After that
comes a white-wash or a scandal.
political needs. And then the
depending upon which best serves
legislative mill starts grinding all
over again!
Can it be that the prohibition
bootlegger has turned tax evader?
Liquor taxes are pretty high for
sales taxes. Competition in the
liquor business is keen. Price-cut-
ters are getting the trade. II part
or all of the taxes can be evaded,
liquor can be sold at bargain
prices" That's what happened, and
still is happening. in the cases OF
gasoline and gasoline taxes. There
are federal, state and local gasoline
taxes: there are federal, state, and
local liquor taxes. The rates, COM
are not greatly at vari-
ance.
Well, where there's a tax there's
evasion. isn't there?

necessarily produce scarcity. II in
duces people not to raise things that
the public is unable to buy. But
they are at liberty to grow other
things. When a farmer is diverted
from producing things that can't be
sold, to growing something which
his family can use or which can be
sold, 1t looks more like good busi-
ness. When a factory finds that
certain goods don't sell. 1t produces
something else. The purpose of this
act is to induce farmers to do the
same.

PRODUCING SCARCITY

Congress has passed law which
will force the cotton growers to
keep their production within 1O.-
100000 bales. Some people call this
producing an artificial scarcity. and
they say It is wrong. They say
that with so many people in rags.
there can be no over production OF
cotton.

Ipswich Likes Bees

Ipswich. besides being a useful
sort OF word for the makers of lin
ericks. is also the name Of a town
In Suffolk that is thick with honey.
In Ipswich there are so many bee
keepers, so very many bees and so
much honey that II the entire pop
ulation went on a steady diet Of
bread and honey indefinitely. there
would still be plenty left for sale.
During the past two years the Ips-
wich and East Suffolk Beekeepers'
association gained a hundred new
members In Ipswich alone. In Ips-
wich the bees cannot be calculated.
They total mp to several millions.
Moreover. a beekeeper who has 49,
600 bees in the late spring will have
100000 in the height OF summer. In
which case. the output of honey for
such a beekeeper will amount to
five or six hundredweight for the
season.-Pearson's Weekly.
