THE STUDENT VOLUNTEERS

THE college and university students meeting here
as members of the Student Volunteers are mem
bers of a significant movement. The presence of
the Archbishop of York their most distinguished
speaker is indication Of their importance.
To take stand for religious principles the
campus demands courage these days. In some uni
versites students devoted to international peace
and practical religion looked upon with sus-
picion, strange it may seem. Some university adj
ministrations group such students with Communists
because Of their international programs.
This Indianapolis convention is part of youth
movement current in all enlightened countries. The
movement is a challenge to the elders of all nations
who produced this younger generation almost with
out heritage 1t stands for break with the past
and a sincere application Of religious teaching to the
problems Of today.

MIR. GRAY OF INDIANA

DICTURESQUE Finly II Gray that frock-coated
long haired Hoosier congressman who now car
res the tradition of being the tall sycamore from
the Wabash, has returned for the session still ad-
vocating his remedy for the country's ills.
1t is this:
LET Congress assume the power to coin and reg
ulate money bestowed it under the Constitution"
According to Mr.. Gray, this is one constitutional
mandate that never has been carried out and at the
present time the job is being done by two other
fellows"-private bankers and the executive branch
of the government.
Meanwhile Congress stands by like bound-boy
at constructing and the fight between the bank
ers and the President goes on" says Mr. Gray
From the very beginning Congress abdicated
and renowned this exercise of power transferring
1t to private banking corporations. These banks
have no more Federal character than a blacksmith
shop or brickyard You might as we'll saw First
National Blacksmith Shop First National Bank"
From the time of the founding fathers until
the last session of Congress the bankers kept full
power over money, Mr.. Gray says.

THE INCOME TAX RULING

EVEN alimony received by Indiana persons from
~ residents of other states must be reported as
taxable income according to the ruling of the Gross
Income Tax Division. That puts a point upon the
income tax in the state Individuals resident for the
past three years and deriving income from other
states from whatever source, will have to dig up.
Corporations doing business in other states al
ready have qualified under the law. The ruling by
the division on the income of individuals will make
large number of Indianans appreciate what taxation
means
Investment of funds beyond the borders of In
diana has been common for years. The proceeds
have been taxed elsewhere. Now they will be taxed
in Indiana under the gross income tax law
Because Indiana is "pay-as-you-go' state and
can not issue bonds, taxes for current expenses
necessarily high. 1t is to be hoped that it does not
find itself in the same bracket with Wisconsin, from
which a number of industries have fled because of
taxes considered excessive

CONDEMNS COMPROMISE
ON BONUS PAYMENT
BY James Palmer. Putnam Count

BY James Palmer, Putnam County
A report states that congressional
Democratic leaders are at work for
a bonus compromise. 1t is the same
old story and as usual some of the
same Southern Senators and Con-
gressmen who bitterly have opposed
the bonus in the past are trying
for a compromise. The rest of the
country feel that it is about time
that the Senators and Congressman
from their home states, whether
they are Democrats or Republicans,
cease to be influenced and domi-
mated by this small group and unite
in passing a bill calling for full and
immediate payment of a debt that
should have been paid soon after
the war.
There is no ground for compro-
mise; the issue is clear and those
Senators and Congressman who
stand and vote for full and immedi-
ate payment are carrying out the
mandate of the majority of their
constituents.

OTHER OPINION
L TN VI LCUIlUIlilNNS
EGary Post Tribunel

A dispatch from washington
hints that the Townsend plan may
be toned down somewhat to meet
the criticisms that have been leveled
against it.
Its sales tax features may be
modified; and this. says the dis
patch, is because economists have
pointed out that 10 per cent of the
people of America have incomes
providing them with the bare neces-
stiles of life, and so could not af-
ford such a tax burden.
This bit of statistics may be a
useful warning for Townsendites, but
it also cuts both ways. For if 70
per cent of our citizens can just
barely meet the daily bills Of grocer
and landlord, it is pretty easy to
understand just why so many peo-
pie want the Townsend plan.
The one sure way to quiet this
clamor for universal old-age pen
sions would be to raise the incomes
of the masses so that they could
provide for old age themselves.
And that trick, unfortunately, is
easier to outline than to perform.
