Care for Aged Grows;
Z States Join This Year

New York (ILNS) - Thirty-five
states now have old age pension laws,
seven of them joining the ranks dur
ing the present year. Every northern
state but South Dakota now pays
old age pensions, and two Southern
States, Florida and Arkansas, have
passed pension laws. Two more
Souhern States vote on the matter
in the next two months; Texas IN
August and Oklahoma in September,
In all but two states, one must be
a citizen before he or she can become
a pensioner. In % states, pensions
begin at 65; the rest run higher, from
68 to 70. The usual maximum is $50
per month, but New York, MaHsa-
chusetts and Montana are exceptions
Six states, New York, New Hamp-
shire, California, Washington, Utah
and Wisconsin, now have some sort
of unemployment insurance laws. In
all but the last two, the funds for
pensions are pooled for the whole
state. Wisconsin and Utah permit
individual company reserves.

Big Business Criticizes the President

that both social and fiscal objectives
are involved in existing tax sys-
TENS" But it takes the ground that
the president is primarily" devoted
to "a policy of social and economic
amelioration," and that this, some
how, is wrong.
Taking up the presidents pro-
posals in detail, the board deals first
with the taxation of inheritances. Mr..
Roosevelt, says the board, is moved by
"the desire to reach great accumula-
tions of wealth, and prevent continued
concentrations of economic power"
This desire, which was hailed with
approval by the general public when
the presidents message was printed,
is strongly disapproved by the board.
Death taxes are high enough now.
IF any right Of disposition of an es-
tate at the owners death is to be re-
tanned by the owner of large amount
of property, the existing rates are
about as high as can be justified on
any ground"
The president proposed graduated
corporations tax, in which company

By GEORGE L. KNAPP

The National Industrial Conference
Board, an organization supported by
business and mainly by big business,
has issued q report on President
Roosevelt's tax proposals which
clearly was intended to serve as cam
paign text book for high finance in
the election struggle of next year. 1t
might be summed up in the words of
the old-time conservative when asked
about woman suffrage: "I'm agin il"
The National Industrial Conference
Board is "agin' the presidents pro-
posals, together and in detail.
THE message sent by the presi-
dent to the congress on June 49," be-
gins the NICB, "is a compete and un-
qualified endorsement of the use of
taxation for no fiscal purposes. 1t is
not a fiscal document, but a state
ment of social and economic philoso-
ply in the application of which taxa
tion is to be used as a convenient in
strument."
The board admits that practical

Britain Tries
Comeback on Cotton

Business is climbing in Britain, and
bill introduced in parliament is
designed to make it climb more rap
idly.
This is the cotton spinning industry
bill. One reason why Japan is annex
ing so much of Britain's former tex
tile market is that at least quarter
of British mills are obsolete, or so
near it that they cannot compete in
a world market.
The cotton spinning industry bill
creates a Spindles Board, and gives it
about $10,000,000 for a start. The
board is to buy up and dismantle about
one-fourth of all British spindles the
out-of-date fourth, of course. This is
a loan from the government, to be
repaid by tax on all remaining
textile mills. The argument is that
with this dead weight thrown over
board, the British textile industry
can meet Japan in the world market
without fear.
In many ways, this plan is much
like the AAA plan in this country;
but there is one big difference. Brit
ain has no supreme court.
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1935-08-30

is taxed not ony according to profits,
but according to size. For example,
the Associated Gas & Eectric which
spent 100000 to bully congress into
defeating the death sentence" in the
holding company bill, now pays only
on profits, which, by the time the
holding companies get through with
them, are not particularly large. The
president would make the A. G. & E.
pay also tax according to its size.
The NICB considers this wholly
wrong. It believes that if the giant
corporation had not come in to control
business, "as nation we would be
paying more for a less satisfactory
product"
No proof is offered of this claim.
The board likewise opposes the plan
to increase the surtaxes on very large
personal incomes. That, it claims,
would not produce enough added in
come for the treasury to be worth
while. The board points out that only
as men reported incomes above 81
0OO, 900 each in 1888. The returns from
taxing the excess above that level
would be negligible" The board does
not tell that 513 men had incomes of
more than 81 100000 each in 1929, that
their total net income was Sl,2l2,-
600, 900, and that the taxes on such a
sum would be far from negligible"
Finally, the board does not see any
use III trying to abolish tax except
securities. 1t would take a constitu-
tional amendment to do that, and the
states would not ratify such an
amendment.
In other words, the National In
dustrial Conference Board condemns
President Roosevelt for views which
he shares with vast majority OF the
American people.
