SIMPLIFYING THE TAX BLOW
The senate finance committee re-
Gently voted for the Sinplifed Chart
system for helping the public deter
mine its income tax. It now seems
certain that the Do-It- Without The
Dizzy-Spell idea will become law and
that the new arrivals within the in
come tax classifications will almost
be admitted on a Pay-As- You Enter
system.
Secretary Morgenthau says that
with the rank and Ale Of taxpayers
lit amt the money; it's the con-
fusion" He contends that man in
the lower brackets should be able to
60 to a post office, glance at chart
and find out what he owes Uncle
Sam without going nuts.
When the income tax was limited
to the Upper Brackets and only took
in small proportion of the people,
1t was all right to let them suffer.
There seemed no reason why they
shouldn't be given the works, UP to
and including the headache, the
spots before the eyes, the night
sweats, the nervous breakdowns
and the mad call for lawyers.
But the Every-Man-An-E instein
policy is to be dropped now that the
income tax laws have been eased so
that anybody can get in. he
Uncle Sam knows that If the rank
and file Of his citizens were ever
asked to 60 through all that trouble
making out an income tax blank,
there would be what Willie Howard
calls a REVOLT" Either that or
more mental collapses than our iils
situations could handle.
Hence the "Not A Headache In
A Carload" type of tax collection.
It is all right as far as it goes,
but it doesn't 60 far enough. We
think the tax blank should be made
prettier. And carry page of fun
mics.

gaining. which I am asking you
to resume at the end Of this meet
ing, 1 have two suggestions for
you to consider
The first is that you continue
negotiati tions. with the hope that
you can arrive at conclusion.
and that if you do not arrive at
conclusion, you will submit the
point, or points at issue to an
arbiter. or arbiters. or ANYBODY
else with any other name. and
that in the meantime coal pro-
duction continue.
The second is that you con-
slider other methods relating to
employment. As l understand il.
the wage question and the check
OF are not involved in this at all.
tell YOU frankly that the Gov
ernment of the United States will
not order, nor will Congress pass
legislation ordering, a so-called
closed shop. 1t is true that bv
agreement between employers
and employees in many plants OF
various industries the closed shop
is now in operation. This is
result Of the legal collective bar
gaining. and not of Government
compulsion on employers or en-
ri te al
per cent or more of the employees
in these particular mines belong
to the United Mine Workers
Union.
Too Much Like Hitler.
The Government will never
compel this per cent TO join
the union by a Government de-
cree. That would be too much
like the Hitler methods toward
labor.
must reiterate that because
OF the need of continuing and
speeding up the defense needs
of the United States. because they
are so clearly involved and be-
cause lack of coal for our steel
plants would injure the defense
of the Nation. it is national
necessity that the production of
this coal be continued without
delay.
And so I am asking you-I
never threaten-I am asking you
to please talk over this problem
OF continuing coal production. If
you can't agree today. please keep
on comforting tomorrow and Sun
day. I don't want any action
that is precipitate. want every
chance given.
And let me have some kind OF
= report on Monday next-a re-
port OF agreement, or at the least
a report that you are making
progress.
