EquaIizing Taxes
(New York World Telegram

(New York Word-Telegram)
 In 1919 the United States Supreme Court ruled that under the Constitution State government could not tax the operations of the Federal government and .he Federal government could not tax the operations of state. 4t sRtfEf& Ff
 That decision, in itself, may have been just and proper But it established what proved to be very bad precedent For 119 years the high court harked back to that precedent and in after expand ed and elaborated tax mmunites.
 Even after adoption of the Sixteenth Amendment. giving Congress power to tax incomes from whatever derived" the Supreme Court held fast to the precedent. It ruled that the government couldn't tax the salaries of state county and municipal em- ployees, or the interest the bonds of state and local governments It said the government couldn't tax the profits which oil company made drilling on state school lands. And in reverse it exempted federal salaries and federal bonds from state taxation It held that state couldn't tax the profit from oil leases of Indian lands because Indians wards of the Federal government
 Not until this year did the high court start exam ming the validity of that precedent Recently how ever it ruled that federal PWA contractors sub ect to state taxation and that conservators and qui dators of state banks had to pay federal income And it overruled the precedent respect profits from state school lands and from Indian lands
 Given time, this happy process of sound reasoning may bring the court around to concluding justly that all citizens and all incomes should be equal before all tax laws
 We hope we live long enough to hear the court declare that precedents notwithstanding, the Con- sttution is charter of government and not one of privileges and immunities. We hope to see the day when even judges have pay the same taxes that or dinary citizens pay.

 MT. RooSevelt'S first article in Liberty is supposed to take g minutes seconds in the reading The time allotment is a Liberty formula which appears at the head ot all it's reading matter but it obviously has peculiar reevance for article the New Deal from so authoritative sourcefs The heart the New Deal IS the planned life against the cuttlroat competi- tive go-as-you-please life. And what could be more happily planned and regulated than world in which everybody knows beforehand that certain magazine article will take 22 minutes seconds to read no more less? t.S ,set
 History has known some rugged individual readers Lord Macauay could probably do the Liberty article m three minutes flat.

 The ban on book beer. with its resulting disap- continent to many millions of Germans perhaps isn't especially henous act of regmentation It is noteworthy however because it gives seasonal empha- sis to the scope of regimentation which exists in an undemocratic country

AGREEMENTS CAN BE MADE

Tentative settement-that is, agreement subject to the approval of the National Labor Relations Board
 made the labor dispute at the Glacier Sea Foods in Petersburg indicative of what can be accomplished when differing groups sit down and aim toward a definite goal dispatches point out that 1t Wasn fifteen minutes after NLR.B. meeting had been started in Petersburg in connection with the case that the agreement reached. Doubtless, some sound constructive thinking and discussion had taken place prior to that action Employer and employee had gotten down to brass tacks and roned out their major troubles before the neutral government agency had entered the picture.
 It is excellent news that settlement has been made in the Petersburg and it is hoped that it may serve as an example in the contro.ersy now raging between other canneries in Alaska and their work \ men If settlement be reached at a canning plant which handles shrimp and crabs it would appear to follow that agreement should be possible between the operators of salmon canneries and their fisher men After all the kernel of the dispute at Peters burg wages, the question which is now hold ing up operations in the salmon industry If they were adjusted in one instance why not they be in the other?
 As in all disputes of this nature, 1t probably will mean give and take and it is to be hoped that the conestng parties will not be too long in accepting that attitude Closing down of Alaskas No. industry for one season have very adverse effect upon the Territory and people setting back its business momentum long ways
