less we have left to set aside for
meeting emergencies for the
building of homes, for improve
ment of farms. for the construc-
ton of factories. In short. every
dollar that the Government takes
from us In taxes means just 81
less for us-a dollar that we might
use to buy things, the production
OF which would create jobs.
There is no better illustration OF
all this than the so-called surplus
tax bill jammed through Congress
this Spring.
One practical effect of this tax
law is to prevent corporation
from using its earnings in the
business. 1t must pay them out in
dividends. In consequence, earn
ings no longer provide funds for
making needed improvements. for
replacing out-of-date equipment
and for additions tosthe plant.
Now, what does this mean to q
man looking for job? 1t means
less chance Of finding work. There
will not be those jobs that come
from the gradual growth of our
small businesses, from the replace
ment of equipment, and from plant
expansion.
For those workers who already
have jobs the effect of tax law
is just as bad. Because of this
legislation it Is no longer possible
for a business. except at unbear-
able cost, to build up reserve for
meeting future losses. In other
words, business organization,
unless it already has reserves, is
put on hand-to-mouth basis.
This means that it can exist only
so long as it can make a profit.
Once trade slackens to the point
where the business cannot make q
profit, it is lost. Not having re-
serve to fall back upon. its lot is
bankruptcy and the lot Of the
workers is unemployment.
There is one other point in this
connection I would like to men,
ton: During the depression pri-
vate industry paid out over twenty
billion dollars more than 1t took
in-twenty billion dollars that
helped to cushion the depression
and keep employees working. This
expenditure was possible only be-
cause of reserves created during
prosperous years.
Yet. by careless, ill-advised tax
legislation, this present admins
tration is, in effect, forbidding a
restoration of the reserves ex-
hausted by the depression. The
sponsors of this tax law may have
thought it was smart way to
appear to soak the rich" Ac-
tually. it has no relation to soak
ing the rich" What it does is
protect the big fellow who still
has a reserve and tie a milestone
around the neck of the little fell
low This legislation prevents the
small business man from expand
ing by the usual method of plow-
ing earnings back into his organi-
zation. 1t is making harder and
harder the Unemployment OF many

of those at present out Of work.
And it Is jeopardizing the Job Of
every man and woman who today
Is working for a business corpora
ton. This is the most cockeyed
piece of tax legislation ever imposed
in Q modern country, and II ! am
elected I shall recommend the i'm
mediate repeal of this vicious
method of taxation.
Let me add, the revision Of this
bill Is only one Of the changes
needed in our tax system. Our
whole tax structure, Federal and
State, needs overhauling.
Dollar for Each
Dollar Spent Aim.
This leads us to the second prin-
ciple which I have listed-that we
must make sure that our Govern
ment gets q dollars worth for every
dollar 1t spends. BY that I mean
that we must get our moneys worth
for the taxes we pay. We must not
lose sight of the fact thai it is our
money that the administration is
wasting.
There are many cases in which 1t
is quite obvious that the country,
as q whole. gets more for the dol.
lars spent by the Government than
it would II we kept the money and
spent it ourselves. ! refer to such
expenditures as are necessary to
provide adequate protection. to
maintain our courts and to enforce
our laws. These expenditures are
essential If We are to live In an
orderly society. They help us to
maintain our political and economic
liberties and to enjoy the fruits Of
our own labor.
For these expenditures. II they
are made efficiently and with econ
omy, we do get q dollars worth for
every dollar we spend.
Until q few years ago this type
of expenditure made up the bulk
of our Federal expenses. Under
the present administration that Is
no longer true. Today the admin
istration is spending money for
almost every conceivable thing. 1t
Is spending even for the necessary
things in ways we cannot afford
in reckless ways which are beyond
our means-which would never ap-
peal to any one who has had to
work for his money-to any one who
has had to face the problem of
making both ends meet-to any one
who has had to see to 1t that his
bills get paid. The Republican
party believes in being generous in
the spending Of money for relief
and emergency purposes, but 1t
believes that these funds should be
spent without waste and absurdities.
This brings us to our third prin-
ciple-that the Government, like
the rest of us. should not get the
habit of spending more than 1t re-
ceives. The present administration
seems to have entirely disregarded
this principle. 1t is paying half OF
its bills with borrowed money. The
truth is we are living in a FOOLS
paradise-far beyond our income.
We all know this cannot con-
tinue indefinitely, because We
have known persons who have
tried it. We have seen them 60
along for . while with apparent
ease, buying first one thing and
then another. which they could
not afford, and then We have seen
them wind up "on the rocks"
Whenever q government con-
tinues to live beyond its income. 1t

show that in the year 1882 SO cents
out of every dollar collected by our
Federal Government was secured
from direct taxes The other Al
cents was collected from indirect
and hidden taxes, paid. for the
most part, by people with incomes
of $25 a week or less.
That was for 1882. Four years
later what do we find? We find that
81 cents out of every dollar col
lected by the Federal Government
came from hidden taxes. In other
words, the share of the cost OF
government falling mainly on those
with incomes of $25 week or less
has increased Is per cent during
the three years of the present adj
ministration. They are paying lar
more than their rightful share OF
the cost of government. Any house
wife can tell you this, because the
housewife knows, better than any.
body else, how the mounting cost
of living is curtailing the COM
forts of the home. And you cannot
long fool her with the pretense
that only the rich will pay.
This increase has come despite
the fact that the tax rates on in
comes of individuals and corpora
lions have been raised. 1t has come
despite the fact that they are
paying far more actual money into
the Treasury than they did in 1882.
In other words, the larger pay
mentS by well-to-do individuals
and corporations have not been
enough to cover the waste and ex-
travagance of this administration.
What is the result? Those of our
citizens with small incomes have
had to pay an increased proper
ton of the cost of the Federal Gov
eminent.
And just how have those with
small incomes paid more? When
we consider the Government rs q
whole-Federal, State and local
We find that they have paid in a
thousand different ways. Take
bread, for example. When we buy q
loaf of bread for 10 cents we pay
about cents for the bread. The
other 2 cents goes for taxes. If
We smoke a package of cigarettes
a day we pay $22 year in taxes.
So it is in all our spending. We
cannot buy stitch of clothing
without the Government taking in
taxes part of the money we pay
out. We cannot buy an ounce of
food at our grocery store with
out being taxed to support the
Government. We cannot go to a
movie, or to a base ball game, or
ride in an automobile without this
invisible tax arm of government
reaching out and taking a part of
the money We spend. This has been
a growing tendency of government
in recent years.
Most of these taxes, it is true.

not see them. But the taxes are
there just as truly as they are in
the sales tax on gasoline. They
cost just as much, and are just as
real as they would be if they were
taken right out of our pay en-
velopes. These hidden taxes
Federal, State and local-amount
to about 20 cents out of every dol
lar We spend. In the case of the
Federal Government alone they
amount to over SIS month for
every family.
Financial Policies
Affect individuals.
1t is in this way that the Gov
ernment's financial policies affect
us as individuals. The more the
Government wastes. the more
money it has to take from us. The
more it takes from US, the less food
and clothing We can buy for our
selves, the less we have for the
education of our children and the

of annoyance to hay-fever victims.
Recent scientific tests proved this was
not true.
A surprising find near the end of the
trail Is the Indian pipe, aptly nick
named the corpse plant. This clammy
white plant derives its nourishment
from decayed vegetation usually near
rotting trees. 1t strangely resembles
an inverted Indian peace pipe. Little
wonder that this lonely, nodding plant
makes such a sad appearance in the
dank, dim-lit fastness of the forest,
for it quickly withers and blackens
when exposed to sunlight.

Intriguing folklore Is associated
with witch hazel. another labeled
plant. According to legend, the magic
wands of witches were made of its
branches, and even today superstitious
people use witch hazel twigs for
divining rods to locate buried treas
ure or well water. When the exact
location is reached, the switch is sup
posed to tremble. The Indians used
witch hazel for medicine, and today
it is a common ingredient of tonics
and astringents. OF all the Towering
plants, witch hazel blooms last, even
after the other flowers have gone to
seed. Not until the Fall of the year
do the witch hazel seeds begin to pop.

round appeal. During the sweltering
Summer heat, towering shade trees
furnish pleasant retreat from the
broiling sun. AS the seasons change,
nature lovers return again and again
to view the striking display of wild
plants.
The Rock Creek Park Mature Trail"
is being developed by Donald Nc
Henry, ingenious naturalist of the Ma
tional Capital Parks. The circuitous
path traverses the four general types
of terrain in Rock Creek Park-open
meadow, swamp land, pine forest and
moist woodland. Eventually most Of
the 1880 species of the parks native
fora will be seen on the trail. Plants
and trees indigenous to the park, but
not now growing along the trail, will
be transplanted here.
Every day trail mixers meander
along this interesting path, where the
luxuriant fora is identified by tags,
which also indicate the distance from
one labeled plant to another. The
wide sylvan trail, slightly over mile
long, can accommodate 500 amateur
botanists at the same time. Near the
trail entrance the thickets are being
cleared to provide parking space.
Soon the beginning of the trail will be
marked by picturesque rustic bower
and direction arrows will prevent
mixers from wandering off the path
Native birds frequent this secluded
spot. The liquid note of the wood
thrush, the saucy blue Jay and the
familiar oven bird fill the day with
incessant song. The park service plans
to erect bird theater" near the en-
trance of the trail so that mixers may
study local birds. Feeding trays will
be placed near the "theater" to attract
the birds. Persons resting in the
shady arbor can watch the feathered
creatures in their natural environment.
Upon the walls of the "theater" will be
descriptions and pictures of the bird
species, which will enable the observer
to identify the winged friends he sees
on the trail.
On the initial leg of the journey,
the trail hiker goes through moist
woodland. where the damp, rich soil
nurtures dense underground. Soon a
conspicuous tag draws the attention
to poison ivy. The inscription advises
the wayfarer to remember the plant
by extending his middle three fingers
to represent the three leaves Of this
infamous vine "If you have touched
poison ivy today" the tag continues,
wash that part Of your body in
strong laundry soap. If you forget,
and little itchy, white blisters appear
on your skin, see doctor"
Although the scientific name,
Toxicodendron, means poison tree,
this vine Is related to the cashew-nut
tree, and strange to say. 1t is used in
curing certain skin diseases.
