ASGVsOsAs bbkuSA Ao AA@N~ forcibly. It was remarkable not be- cause 1t added anything of impor- tance to the statement of the case. but 1t did epitomize the attitude of industry towards labors growing struggle to achieve justice In the economic structure of America.
 Addressing the chairman of the board and protesting the demand oi the steel workers for the check-on, l, he said in substance: American industry has been built on the prin- cinal of freedom. In the many years of its history American business has fashioned It's own policies. In the nast government as the friend of ln- dustry has left 1t to fashion these policies and left alone American in- dustry mas built the greatest econ- omic system the world has ever known"
 Today this is an out-moded American economic philosophy. It is the diScredited theory of indi- yidualism and absolute liberalism WHENCE CAME
 ANU1VkDUhAASW6
 The prevalent economic system or America for the past century ana half arose in historical fact as movement for freedom. In the l0tn and 17th centuries emerging na- tions. particularly England ana France, strove to perpetuate econ- omic security by drastic system of economies. Similar to the total itarian methods of today, industry then too was fashioned as system of complete state control and the state encamped on industry hun- dreds of thousands of inspectors to enforce the thousands of laws ana regulations by which every phase Of industry was ruled.
 Fettered and bound, there awoke in industry & violent reaction in search of liberty. Liberty became the plea; the philosophy of liberal- ism became the final answer. AS often happens the reaction went to the other extreme and insisted on complete independence as the rule of economic security. Laissez faire, leave business alone and 1t will get along. That was the rule of Adam Smith in 1776. That was the rule of President Hoover who even in tho depths of the depression re- fused to interfere. Things would light themselves. They always had. Ii you interfere you will only make things worse.
 But as we know things did not right themselves. They could not be left alone.
 CRIMES IN ITS
 NAME
 American business, however, still insists on its individualism or lib- eralism or liberal capitalism as 1t Is called. And how 1t has used that libcrtyl Perhaps 1t may call It's economic system the greatest in the world. but that system has proved itself by its history to be one built

we weaken their power to produce we not only curtail the prospect Of jobs for many of us, but we destroy the possibility of even maintaining present taxes. to say nothing of in- creasing them.
 In many cases so severe tax would weaken the financial ability of corporations to an extent that they would be bankrupt by the strain of war; or be in no position to meet the strain of reconstruction which must come after the war is over.
 The fact that the Government has found that corporate income was the source from which 1t could derive It's greatest immediate revenue, and the fact that 1t could tax 1t twice. once at its source and again as dividends in the hands of stock holders should not blind us to the fact that If our great industrial resources are either weakened or so discouraged that they see no pros- pect of future profits. then we will have landed in the slough of the most inefficient form of State So- cialism. The State then would have taken over all the gains of industry with no responsibility for It's losses.
 Further, by the practical elimin- ation of profits. 1t would have de- stroyed the incentive of free enter prise to improve methods, to perfect inventions, and to constantly de- crease costs. It is estimated that the Government, under the proposed law, may draw off by taxes some 30 pen cent to 86 per cent of the net income of corporations. We cannot justify the proposal to take so great q share of their income even during the war. Such process would lead to the very rapid exhaustion of the resources which are absolutely nec- essary to insure Victory.
 These extortionate taxes will have the result in many instances of com- ing so near to eliminating profit that they will reduce Government con- tracts practically to q cost-plus ba- sis. with all of tho tendency to waste and inefficiency which that encour- ages. They might easily cost tho Government more than they would raise. They could not, by the dif- ference between reasonable and ex- treme limits, yield more than half Q billion dollars.
 A Sales Tax which might yield 5 billionS: Is much more economical to collect than taxes on the lower levels of income.
 Encourages savings and inyest- ments in United States Bonds.
 Raises revenue at once: an income tax not for several months after the tax has been levied.
 Meets the dire need for greatly in- creased revenue during lo42 to avoid imitation.
 Is the one means by which VIC may an contribute alike to the Common Cause.

 Of the first thousand plants, 353 have reported on slogan contests, 320 on the erection of production charts, 370 on suggestion boxes and l23 on transportation pools. Reports have not been mandatory and the number of plants in which these &C., tivitles are in progress is believed to be much larger.
 Many increases in production have been reported 10 War Produc- ton Drive headquarters, of which forty have been outstanding Plants have reported breaking as many as 50 production records In one month.
 The drive has nourlshed in plants or all sizes. one plant having less than 30 employees. It has been es- pecially effective in the larger in- dustrial organizations, where the drive has given vast numbers of men and women a unity of purpose and comradeship not possible be- fore.

TEXAS SENATOR ADDS FIDDLE TO CAMPAIGN
By RICHARD M. fdOREHEAD Limited Press Stan COFreapOndent) )

Limited Press Stan COFrespOndenD
 Houston. Tex. July 14 CUP1 -- Texas first double-feature political show, starring United States Sen ator w. Lee O'Daniel, is on the road this summer.
 Texans are accustomed to the en- tertaining campaigning of O'Daniel, former radio-selling -four merchant, from his two successful races for governor and one for the Senate. But the double feature is new.
 To his Please-Pa&S-the- Biscuits troupe, O'Daniel has added can- didate for governor and second orchestra. The gubernatorial candi- date is Hal Collins, widely known to Texas radio audiences through daily radio program selling min eral crystals made in his hometown of Mineral Wells, Texas.
 Music and Mattresses
 O'Daniel and Collins have been friends for many year. A year ago, Collins entered the special race to choose a successor to Texas late Sen. Morris Sheppard. He cam paigned with music and free mat tresses for the largest family at each rally.
 Coke Stevenson, Texas rancher governor who was elevated from the lieutenant-governorship by O'Dan- iels election to the Senate, is seek ing to retain the office. His cam paign is of the conventional type, with numerous public speeches, plus early-morning radio broadcastS to catch the farmers ear. But no ballyhoo.
 The O'Daniel- Collins troupe in- cludes the senator's famous hilly- billy band and Texas Rose" girl singer; Collins fiddle orchestra, cowgirl warblers and blackface comedy team. One of the senator's sons, Mike. still plays in the or chestra. The other son, Pat, is in the army.
 Sell Bill of Rights
 The little collection barrels car ried in previous ODaniel cam paigns with the label "Four-Not Pork" are missing. But the candi- dates have two money~raising of- ferings with their current attrac- ton. They are the w. Lee O'Dan- iel News" campaign paper, and handsomely printed copies of the Bill of Rights which sell to the voters for twenty-five cents each
 O'Daniels main platform" is a criticism of labor racketeering, an appeal for return of prohibition, which the late Senator Sheppard sponsored: and ridicule Of his two opponents, former Governors James w. Alfred and Dan Moody. The sen ator ordinarily refers to his oppo- nents as s"the gold dust twins
 Collins theme Is mainly a cru sade against vice He is asking the voters to send him to the state capitol at Austin to rid 1t of pro fessional politicians" O'Daniel, as governor. crippled the professional politicians power at Austin, says Collins. The mineral crystals sales man wants to finish the job.
 The first Democratic party prim- ary in Texas will be held July 25. In races where run-of Is neces- sary. second election will be held Aug. g

CT twice and of taxing him on A sliding scale, irrespective of the size of his share of income received in dividends. We started on a similar ly sound basis but have now depart ed from 1t.
 This theory of an excess profits tax, based upon sliding scale, was exaggerated by proposals advanced by the Ways and Means Committee of Congress that the tax on the ex- cess profits should either be at a rate of 94 per cent of the excess. or on sliding scale varying from 55 per cent to 86 per cent of the excess.
 The extent to which 1t is now at- tempted to push the assessment of excess profits taxes well Illustrates the political dangers to which 1t Is exposed. It feeds upon itself until 1t reaches the point where 1t kills the goose which has laid the golden egg. The major wealth of the coun- try rests in its producing units. If

State Victory
Puzzles Coach

EAST LANSING, Jan. 23.-Ber
r. Van Alstyne. Michigan State
basketball coach, looked into his
crystal ball today and hoped that
the Spartans wouldn't duplicate
their most recent performance
when they travel TO Notre Dame
tomorrow night.
However the future looked quite
misty in the crystal ball 10 Van
Alstyne, especially after watching
the SpartanS capture their ninth
victory in l. starts last night
against the University of Cincin-
natl. 1870.
Van Alstyne. along with $500
spectators, saw the Michigan State
squad roll up such a sudden lead
in the first 10 minutes that the
reserves were called upon for the
rest of the first half.
The second half. however. saw
The SpartanS hit their lowest ebb
OF the season. Their attack begged
down completely, and at one point
Cincinnati came within six points
of tying the score after Michigan
State had held a 23-10 lead at
half time.
