Uncertainties over the crop outturn,
the European political situation and
the continued weight of the movement

NEW YORK, October A.-Wide
gains by sugar company bonds flashed
brightly in a dull bond market today.
Demand for these issues in the last
few days has lifted them sharply and
they now stand at the highest levels
in many weeks. The inquiry for sugar
issues, trading circles said, developed
as a result of the improved statistical
position of the industry, together
with the hope of producers that
quotas for the commodity will be ex-
tended another year.
Camaguey Z per cent certificates
gained 2l2 to 23l2, new high for
the year, and Vertientes certificate Is
rose "a to 1872, also a new 1886
high. Francisco certificate Ties added
2 at 845s and Manati TIES gained
is to 62ls.
Rail issues moved indifferently and
finished the session little changed
Utility and industrial bonds were
finished the session little changed.
United States Governments were
inactive and clung to narrow trading
ranges, with closing prices little
changed.
The Associated Press averages for
the various groups were unaltered ex-

possible taxpayers is busily explain
ing why someone else should carry
the load.
Since the taxes must come it is
wise to make the best of it. We can
a. least notice the brighter side of the
picture. One thing to remember is that
we can pay taxes with less strain if
we have large incomes from which to
nav them. As business improves, as
employment grows, the burden will
seem less, in fact, it will be less. A
nrosperous country can easily pay
taxes which would be impossibly
heavy in times of depression. -

WARSAW, Feb. 20. up
The Polish-Lithuanian annlmoSity'
created by the status of Vllna,
shows no signs of abating as the
controversy ends its 18th year.
No diplomatic or consular re-
lations have existed between the
two countries since 1920 when
the Polish occupation of Wilma;
the capital of the one-time Grand
Duchy of Lithuania, caused the
indignation against Poland when
has smouldered in Lithuanla ever
since.
So strong is the feeling be-
tween the two countries over TINS
city that when their respective
foreign ministers met in Geneva
last year for the first time since
the war, the mutual desire 1oi
friendly relations was reported TO
have been set at naught because
Joseph Beck could not promise
the cession of Wilma and Stasys
Lozoratjtis could not surrender
Lithuania's claim to it.

put is it? First, much depends on the
re.son why the debt was incurred. III
Tho money was borrowed only TO De
wasted. the waste is to be deplored.
r. il was instead used to construct q
panama Canal or develop a mucn
needed public irrigation project, we
have something very worth while 10
chow for it. Only a very queer econ
onist indeed would argue that such
eynenditures are wasteful or that we
should resent taxes that are imposed

purposes.
Lot us suppose, however, that the
borrowed money was spent unwisely
ar even wastefully. How burdensome
are the taxes? Well, they are certainly
unpleasant for the one who has to
nav them. But are they a loss to the
country? If 10 per cent or 20 per
cent Of our total income should be
used to pay debt charges, is that huge
amount entirely lost?
By no means. For every debtor
there is a creditor. The Government
has issued its bonds. The government

owns the bonds and the owner OF the
bond is a creditor. What is collected
from some of us as taxpayers is dellV-
cred to those of us who are bond
holders. There is some loss on the
way TO pay the cost of collection and
disbursement, but the funds raised by
t.y.tion are passed on-they are not
lost.
It is a mistake, then, to think o.
taxes as something that is completely
lost to the country. To the extent that
the money is raised to pay public en-
ployees to do something, the question
to be raised is whether we want TINS
particular service rendered and
whether we want it done by govern
ment rather than by private business
To the extent that the tax money is
used to support a public debt, there
is no loss to the country, since what
is taken as taxes IS passed on to bond
holders.
This does not mean that the tax
problem is easy. 1t is one of the most
difficult we have. Yet it is worth while

GEN. MITCHELL
E-ARMY AIR
CHIEF IS DEAD
Passing Of Former Fiery
Critic in New York Hos
pital Sudden 4}m&'

NEW york. Feb. .28. tUP)-
Brig. Gen. William d. Mitchell,
retired former fiery chief of the
army air corps, died at Doctors
hospital late yesterday. He had
been confined there several
weeks. He was Sc. ..,
The wartime commander of the
army's aviation forces had been
suffering from influenza cOmpli-
Gated by a heart condition which
his physician. DR.. Adrian Van S.
Lambert, attributed to overwork.
1t was believed that his con-
dition was improving but a turn
for the worse developed this af-
ternoon. A few hours later he
, died,
At the hospital his death was
described as "sudden."
1t occurred at 4 as p. M.
Mitchell was admitted to the
hospital on January %.
Surviving are his widow, the
former Elizabeth Trumbull Miller
of Crosse Pointe, Mich, whom he
married in 1928 and two children,
Incv Trumbull and William.
Mitchell shared the field with
! Gen. Smedley d. Butler as the
most outspoken army officers of
the last two decades.
1t was his insistence on talk
ing straight from the shoulder
that led to his retirement from
a distinguished army career,
which unlike that Of most of his
fellow officers, did not begin at
West Point.
Most of Mitchell's criticism was
directed against the army all
| service organization. In February
1925, he bluntly charged the wal
department was "quite incapable
of creating, handling Or admins
tering air power in All efficient
manner" .-.... $500,
President Coolidge appointed 9
special board to investigate the
charges as. well as to determine
the efficacy of a unified air ser
vice such as Mitchell advocated
After ten months the board de
MED the charges and dismissed
the idea of an independent all
corps. .. =,
Then came the disaster to the
dirigible Shenandoah and a near
tragedy to naval plane attempt
ing a flight to Hawaii. Mitchell
beloved that, "These accidents
are the direct result of incompet'
ency, criminal negligence and al
most reasonable administration
of the national defense by the wal
and navy departments"
Less than two months later, on
October 20, 1925, the secretary
of war ordered court martial ia
try Mitchell for violation of the
! Goth article of war, which prohlb-
its conduct prejudicial to good or
der and military discipline" He
was found guilty, sentenced to
immediate suspension from his
rank with forfeiture Of all pay
and allowances for five years
President Coolidge upheld the
suspension but restored part of his
pay and allowance.
Mitchell resigned the, following
day. He retired to ,obscurity as
a gentleman farmer, but his IN
terest in aviation never waned.
