Capital Levy Demanded
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor of The Star:
While can lay no claim to any emf
nence in the fashionable business of
postwar planning, I believe that few
observations on my part may not be
amiSs.
One thing that overshadows our en-
tire postwar economic picture is the
huge national debt we will have Heavy
taxation will be required to meet the
interest payments alone. If any of the
principal is to be paid of, taxes will
have to be still higher.
Meanwhile, as long as the debt re-
mains unliquidated we always will be
faced with the possibility of imitation or
reputation. Thus our currency is un-
settled. Our servicemen who now have
little money to buy bonds will come
back to pay taxes on the accumula ted
obligation-and little of what they pay
will return to them as interest on bonds
they hold. They will find themselves
in the position Of paying for the war
after having won 1t.
Nor will the average civilian who is
now buying bonds be much better of.
When he cashes his bonds he will have
to continue paying interest on the debt
that they represent.
A capital levy, on the other hand.
would bring In enough to pay of the
whole debt. Make such levy payable
In cash or kind. A. r. SABIN.

The Taft Amendment

The legislation to protect" serv-
lcemen from political propaganda,
known as the Taft amendment to
the soldier vote law, was intended
to serve useful purpose. But in
Its practical application the amend
ment has been reduced to an alb
surdity, and it is gratifying, there
fore, to learn that it is to be
substantially modified
AS interpreted by the Army, the
amendment has been held to require
the withholding from troops of such
things as the new biography of
Oliver Wendell Holmes, the motion
picture dramatization of the life of
Woodrow Wilson and, more recently,
even the Official Guide to the Army
Air Force. This latter publication
was barred on the ground that it
contained pen portrait of the
President, with a caption describing
him as the Commander in Chief.
This is carrying things pretty far,
and it might almost seem that the
Army was bent upon making a
horrible example of the legislation.
But the fact remains that the lam
guage of the amendment is very
broad and the penalties which it sets
up are drastic The amendment
makes it unlawful for any officer or
any person employed in the execu-
tive branch of the Government to
deliver to our troops any motion
picture, literature or other material
containing political argument or
political propaganda "of any kind"
designed or calculated to affect the
result of any Federal election. A
violation is punishable by a maxi
mum fine of $1,000, imprisonment
for not more than one year, or both.
With this language on the statute
books, 1t is not surprising that the
officials in the War Department are
taking no chances. The law deprives
them of virtually all discretion and
they evidently are proceeding on the
theory that it is better to be safe
than sorry. Under the contemplated
modification, however, they will be
given some real freedom of decision
the only restraint apparently being
that the choice of publications to be
distributed must be made impartially.
This is welcome change. After
all, we permit the officers and off,
cials of the War and Navy Depart
ments to make decisions when the
lives of the servicemen are at stake,
and it hardly seems unreasonable
to give them something of a free
hand in deciding what is and what
is not fit for them to read.

that Russia was already broken and
would never rise again, or after
Dieppe when he told the German
people that his Fortress Europe"
could never be invaded. Politically
and militarily, moreover, after al
most flve years of immense strain
and enormous losses for the Reich,
his outlook on every front appears
so hopeless as to make Germany's

Accordingly, unless he has mes
merized himself into one of the most
wishful delusions in history and sin
cerely believes. in it, or unless he
really has secret weapon indescrib-
ably more dreadful than the worst

what MusSolini did in the last days

monumental bluff because he must

and Gerald Smith,
What's the prospective strength of the
America Firsters in the coming cleo
ton? Take Michigan first, the home
of Mr. Smith and of his movement
Mr. Smith quite frankly does not ex-
pect to win the electoral vote of the
State. He does not predict how many
votes he will get. He puts 1t this way:
If the America First ticket gets
$4,000 votes here it will be sufficient to
keep the party alive and on the ballot
for the next election Such vote also
may determine which way the State
goes, Democratic or Republican. If the
ticket receives $4,000 votes, it will be
fine, and If 1t receives 100000 it will
amount to an hilarious victory for u.s."
Mr.. Smith does not know how manv
OF the old America Firsters will vote for
him this year. He does know, however.
that when he ran for the Republican
senatorial nomination In 1912 he polled
10000 votes. 1t may be some Demo-
Gratis went into the Republican pri-
mary and supported him But he had
that manv votes against a 1922 900 for
Senator Ferguson

KIND OF campaign. He is saying nothing
and carrying water on both shoulders.
He is playing up to the internationalists
and hoping for the nationalist vote,
too
Well he can't bite Willkie off at
one END of the stick and me off at the
other, and win"

the America First party, its strength,
its plans and for what it stands.

The Political Mill
BY Gould Lincoln

DETROIT, Mich.-The America First
party. headed by Gerald L. K. Smith.
frst lieutenant to the late Huey king
FISH Long Of Louisiana and later as
sociated with Father Coughlin. will
hold national convention here August
% and 30. Mr. Smith says that 1900
delegates representing every State in
the Union will be on hand.
Mr.. Smith frankly expects the ma
tlonal convention to ratifv his own
selection for the presidential nomi-
nation and that of Henry Romer of
Ohio for Vice President Although, "
ne ADDS. 1.-The convention will be at
liberty to pick any candidates it desires. "
He was nominated for President at a
preliminary convention held here the
first week in August After Gov Bricker
OF Ohio repudiated his nomination for
Vice President on the America First
ticket, made at that preliminary con-
Vention. Mr.. Smith and his supporters
picked Romer.
Romer is farmer and merchant
living at st, Henry. Ohio. He was the
former Ohio leader of the Coughlin
movement.
The convention also will write and
adopt platform. The party already
has a thumbnall program, printed on
a card the size of an ordinary visiting
card. thousands of which have been
printed and distributed 1t has five
points. First, $1,000 to every war vet
eran when mustered out. Second. $40,
SIS or $40 a day for workers by insti-
tuting profit sharing Third, cash
bonuses to farmers for production. with
increased prices for farm commodities.
Fourth, restore private enterprise by
outlaWing monopoly and eliminating
bureaucratic interference with business,
Fifth, no world government, no inter-
national bank, a strong national de-
tense. Trade with all nations-per-
manent alliances with none.
Mr.. Smith, after the convention shall
have acted. plans an active campaign
which will take him into all 48 States.

no equal in the country today. He can

General Patton

Ever since the invasion of Sicily
the German high command and its
forces in the field have had a
healthy respect for General Patton.
They know good commander when
they see one and are mauled by him.
The Unfortunate slapping incident
did not change their opinion of the
man, nor did any of the intem-
perate criticism of him in this
country. During his long absence
from combat, they have been specu-
lating a bit nervously about where
he might turn up next. Now they
think they have the answer. Ac-
cording to the Nazi news agency
Transocean, they strongly suspect
that he is in France commanding
the Third American Army" The
news agency respectfully adds that
he Is IAN exponent OF mobile war
fare"
General Eisenhower's headquar-
ters has made no such announce
ment and no Allied communique
has even limited about "the Third
American Army or the whereabouts
OF General Patton. Nevertheless,
although the Germans may be all
wrong, they cannot be blamed if
they suspect that something new
has been added to our power in
France. And since General Patton
Is most certainly IAN exponent of
mobile warfare" and since our forces
are spreading and racing like a
prairie fire right up to the environs
OF Paris, the Nazi agency's report is
at least logical and may yet be con-
flrmed as true. And If it Is, all the
loose things said about General
Patton in the past will seem worse
than childish. A great number of
Americans would be happy to see
this come to pass. vindicating a man
who may be short on diplomacy but
whose qualities as a fighting officer
are beyond dispute.
