see the picture, the present policy
of the government is a tremendous
deterrent to Investors contemplate
ing putting their money in big cor
porations in general, and utilities in
particular. Big corporations, be-
cause of the Presidents antipathy
for bigness in business-utilities be-
cause of his alleged bias against
them and because OF his frank ex-
pressions as to what returns they
should be allowed to earn.
The point of the whole thing is
that, Mr.. Roosevelt making no al
lowance for any money "unwisely'
invested by utility corporation or
any money spent for bribery or any
other dishonest" purpose, and not
being willing to allow even in
creases in land values, If they were
"unearned increment" or if the
value had advanced through no eff
fort of the company, these eonserva-
tives do not look for any rush of un-
employed capital to the utilities. Or
to any other business on which the
heavy hand of the government
mightsfall.
How They Reason
Hence, these conservatives rea-
son, the only way that money can
be employed, and thus provide jobs
for the unemployed, is to permit
going concerns to use some of the
surpluses for expansions without a.
punitive tax.
This does not mean, these con-
servatives point out, that this par
ticular money would escape taxa
ton. On the contrary, it is sure to
be taxed at least twice by the fed
eral government.
Thus if the Niagara and Hudson
company, to use a specific case,
though an imaginary one, should
earn ten million dollars above its
prudent dividend requirements, and
SHOULD desire to put this money in
to new hydroelectric plant, it
would be permitted to do so without
paying an undistributed earnings
tax on that ten millions. But it
would pay at least 16 per cent in
regular corporation earnings taxes.
This figure of 16 per cent is the
lowest any one in congress is think
ing about. It contrasts with the
present normal corporation income
tax of Is per cent. Probably, when
the law is enacted, it will be nearer
20 per cent and some want it even
higher.
Presumably this ten millions
would eventually be distributed as
dividends. When that happened the
stockholders would, of course, have
to pay their individual income taxes
on it. And meantime, any addition
al earnings occasioned by this in
vestment would, of course, be SUBJ
iect to the 16 per cent or larger reg
ular corporation earnings tax.

The thing that we predicted a

nut with high powered auto lost
control Of it along the Stroll and
after running short way on the

liberately got out of his machine and
when the police found him he was
home in bed, covered up head and
ears, dreaming, apparently forget
ting he ever owned an automobile. 1t
happened just about time for the
show in that immediate vicinity to
let out. And if this avoidable ac-
cident had occurred 10 or 15 minutes

have been more than a broken iror
