Taxes Are Relative

(Rocky Mountain News)
 SECRETARY SNYDER makes sense when he says that should not be reduced this year because any surplus the obtain could better be used to reduce the public debt.
 But he is talking nonsense and thinking in terms of politics when he lends his voice to the demagogc but orepeated that when taxes reduced they should not be reduced by flapercentage across-he board reduction because the with high income would get the greater monetary relief.
 When the taxes being laid on don't recall that anybody ventured to rise up and say for instance that unfair because 20 per cent increase would mean that man who had heretofore paid $10O tax would only have pay $20 additional while another taxpayer who already had been paying $lOO,0O0 would have to pay $20,000 additional
 Of course, with a lower income won't have his tax reduced much in dollars He couldn't and still be taxpayer He doesn't have enough taxable income Tax revenues and tax reductions should be thought of in terms of revenue, not votes.

come of our budget. Fact that Rus sia's whole national income is very little more than our proposed na- tional budget ought to embarrass nobody but Russia. And the fact that Russia plans to spend more than our country for military serv- ices ought to be embarrassing, in these times of peace, to Russia. However, large expenditures for the sake of national defense may be necessary until the peace is se- sure. But we need not conclude that the habit of heavy spending is to be our full and complete offer ing to the dove of peace.
 Trimming down expenses is not an easy task for Congress. Snaips progress will be made unless the people make themselves heard. A big and wasteful budget now, car rying with it a tax penalty upon the enterprise of our people, could do much to start us downhill tow ard the kind of economy Russia has. Most Americans, T believe would rather be allowed to spend their own money than nave the government spend it for them.

l' Q.

BUGS IN THE BUDGET

Did you know that income of the federal government for the next fiscal year will be nine times, may be ten times, what is was in the boom period of 1929? IL will be at least seven times the receipts the federal government had in 1889. Weak nation t would be, indeed that could not balance a peacetime budget with the receipt side of the ledger at enormous peacetime highs.
 Just to balance the budget dur ing boom times, however, is not enough. We must retire and reduce taxes. Looking at another angle, the federal government wants to spend more than four times as much as it did in any year of the Thirties, when deficit spending was in the habit-forming stage. Has it now become fashionable for our government it spend all it can get? Have we forgotten that the more we spend the more we shall have to tax?
 Pet Projects
 If we cannot, under favorable conditions of high employment and prosperous trade, get hold of ourselves long enough to retire our national debt and cut our taxes, at what future time do we expect to do so? Is our budgeting so out of hand that Congress cannot gain control over it? Or is the public thus unmindful of the trouble we're in for under a tax load re- quired by the spending of $37, ,50O,- 000,000 annually?
 Both the President and the Con- gress have given evidence of hon. est desire to keep the expenditure

side of the budget down. But the pressures that are applied from ev- cry direction call for spending more money. As a people, we shall have to exert great moral forti- tude at this time if we expect an aboutface in spending ph;loso- phy grown almost traditional. We need not complain to the govern ment for being spendthrift, if at home we insist upon being spend- thirsty about our pet projects. Economy begins first at home.

Examine Everything

Examine EverYfhln9
 Although the war has been over nearly two years, your govern ment wishes to spend more in the next fiscal year alone than was spent during the whole of World War l. Of course, this is a danger ous era, and no one wants to ham, string our national defenses. The whole nation wants the occupation program to succeed. But more eff ficiency and the least possible waste of manpower and money should be the order of the day.
 AS late as November the War and Navy departments were still employing more than a million civilians. Spending in every de- partment, military or non-military, should be studied carefully. Every one knows it is easier to keep on spending government money than to retrench. This is just as true of our national defense. Despite warnings of what may happen, Congress will do well to examine these expenditures.

Filibuster Tactics of Wayne
Morse and Taylor Explained
BY LOuls Lautier


as the Senate technically was in
the process Of correcting its Jour
nal Of January II, 1916.
The Senate had before it from
January Is to January %, 1916,
the motion Of Senator Clyde r.
Hoey, Democrat, of North Carolina,
to include the chaplain's prayer in
the Journal, and from January %
to February 9 it had before it the
motion Of Senator HOey to include
in the Journal the names Of Sena-
tors who had failed to answer
quorum call.
The Morse-Taylor resolution to
amend the cloture rule also pro-
vides for adoption of a motion to
shut off debate by a majority vote
instead Of the two-thirds vote now
required and as would be required
if the Senate should adopt the reso-
luton reported by the Senate Rules
Committee, but it would allow each
Senator to speak for a maximum of
three hours after cloture is adopted
with the privilege Of farming out
the time not used to other Senators.
In other words, after there has
been debate on bill and a cloture
petition has been adopted, the
Morse Taylor resolution would al
low additional debate Of 288 hours
or 81 3-5 days of 5-hour sessions.
Inasmuch as the Senate meets on an
average Of five days a week, it
would take, under the Morse Taylor
resolution, thirteen weeks to bring
to vote bill on which there was a
filibuster.
After Senator Morse had finished
his ten-hour speech and the Senate
had reached "a unanimous consent
agreement to vote at 3 o'clock on
the Monday following, Senator
Richard b. Russell, Democrat, of
Georgia, asked to have inserted in
the Congressional Record an article
from Golfers magazine Of June 10,
1916, entitled How to Bust Fill
buster" 1t was written by Senator
Morse.
He offered the following STRAIT
egy:
There is no way to smash a fill
buster but to exhaust the filibus-
terers by forcing them to speak day
after day for "a hours a day.
an very real sense a filibuster
is an endurance test. If a majority
of the Senators really want to free
themselves from the dictates of a
willful minority, they must be will
ing to take the time and undergo
the physical strain that may be
necessary to abolish once and for
all the filibuster travesty."
