essentials is to

his of living So the political spenders at
Washington turning again to taxes on wealth. and par
ticuarly to corporation surpuses'
There are two general arguments back proposal to
corporate surpuse One is the notion that saving should
be discouraged and spending be forced The other is the
notion that wealth should be redstrbuted" by process
"eveing down. 1t is the latter which is the one wish to
. comment upon today
1t is true that good many corporations have surpuses
accumulated by setting aside funds out of their earnings
stead of paying all the earnings out as dividends In several
prior $780, corporations thus built surpuses
at the rate of two to three billion dollars year.
Subsequent events showed that they needed these supuses
for the lean years. but point today is that
tions surplus ALL and that those which do
are the whole entitled do by of their eff
cheney.
There are two general sorts of surpus Some surplus
may be unearned being the result of monopoly expoa
on of the public For such unearned surplus economics
offers defense had best be prevented by requiring
petition, by stamping out exploitation of or
laborers If not prevented it is fit object of drastic taxa
tion.
2 But some corporate supuss earned in competition
with other corporations These result from being able to sell
products at the competitive price and still make profits large
enough enable the set aside funds for expansion
for reserve against contingencies.
Such surpuses are what economists call derenas They
are the reward of superior efficiency In fact they would
exist unless there less efficient producers whose
relatively high costs have to be covered by the price of the
product.
Corporations both required in order produce
all the steel that is demanded They competing and sell
the price But has lower costs than B. Corpora
tion makes little profit Corporation A makes
large profit and instead of paying all out in dividends
it a surplus.
In time it may this surplus to improve and expand its
plant. It may drive business But are
thus enabled to get better and cheaper steel result
Such surpuse represent differences efficiency We
tax them if wish and if carefully adjusted such taxes
may increase the price of the products involved for the
efficient corporations would have to bear the tax while
the less efficient would not have pay any-they would
have surpus ...
But society would suffer just the because it would
be deprived of the motive which the efficient producers
have improve and expand Progress would be prevented
This is the old story of "1eveling downof attacking
efficiency because brings relatively large earnings Neither
companies of equal in ability When al
society gets demorazed that will let its efci
ent individuals business organizations have the benefit
of their superior efficiency, it must decay.
So say, 60 slow this corporate surplus tax. it can
be proved that corporation does not its surplus
remedy required But earned surpuses the motive for
superior social service.

find some tax that will not seem to hit many
voters CTheir chief aim in life is to get
votes and be reelected)
There are two chief ways of getting taxes
without affecting votes: Q) indirect excise
taxes which are paid in the price of such
consumer goods as cigarettes and gasoline,
(2) taxes on corporations and wealthy per-
sons. In the one case, the voter doesn't
notice the tax. In the other case, the voters
are few.
We have gone pretty far in loading the
consumer nm with indirect taxes which in

AQUARIUM PRIZE
FISH ON PARADE
Goldfish Neglected as New
and Diverting Specimens
Draw Visitors.

The goldfish and guppyi in the Bu-
reau of Fisheries aquarium are feeling
sort of sad this week because their
public is being lured away by some
of their stranger aquatic friends.
The aquarium this week is the scene
of the fourth annual exhibit Of the
National Aquarium Society, an Or
eanization formed in 1888 for the
mutual study and cultivation Of
aquatic life.
The goldfish and guppyi, being more
common aquatic household pets, are
being ignored by many OF their visi-
tors who hasten to view such animals
as sea urchinS, sea horses, burr fish,
bat fish and others, and interesting
aquatic plant life.
The exhibit opened on Sunday and
will be continued through next Sun
day. 1t may be seen between 10 am.
and $50 pm. each day.
The exhibit is designed primarily to
show how attractive home aquaria can
be made. Some of those on display
are Illuminated with neon lights of
different colors. Others show all sorts
of corrals, live-food cultures and other
sea water specimens.
Prizes will be given later in the
week to the owners of aquaria judged
the most attractive. DR.. William M.
Mann, director of the Zoo, is head of
the committee which will select the
winning exhibits.

With the latter remark, he pointed

You mean you want another din

The man did not. Discussion devel-
oped that he wanted what he thought
was part of the one dinner for which
he was ready to pay IS cents.
He thought the restaurant mighty
stupid to have listed it that way. On
its side, the management did not
