The Highway Commissioner
Should Resign

1t is a good bet, though by no means a sure
one, that Karl Rolvaag has been elected governor Of
Minnesota.
If this turns out to be the case, the credit will
have to go to Governor Andersens bungIing bumpti-
highway commissioner For reasons which are
beyond our understanding, Governor Andersen felt
It necessary to stand back of his highway commits
sioner and to defend and excuse him, even when it
came to General Marshalls outrageous unaccept-
able attitudes regarding the process and function
Of inspection of highways under construction.
1t is obvious that the Governor was cruelty en-
barrassed by his commissioner. 1t is also obvious
that by standing behind him on the inspection issue
instead of taking the stand of welcoming full in
spection Of charges of highway department laaity,
Governor Andersen sacrificed thousands of votes
which may now turn out to be the margin between
victory and defeat.
The Governors dilemma in this case is made
more poignant by the fact that although General
Marshall either did not know did not that In
Minnesota just don't do things this way, the
Governor does know and does care.
The inspection issue Is only of long series
Of bungles, ineptitudes and failures by the highway
commissioner, all contributing to the present sad
state of Generalization in the department. The cost
to Governor Andersen's political career of General
Marshalrs inadequacies nothing compared
with his cost to the cities of Minneapolis and st.
Paul. The cities still do not Know where they stand
many of the major questions involved in the vast
changes being wrought in transportation here, but
they are properly alarmed about what is going on
and about the fact that they cannot get satisfactory
answers.
This, also, is one of the Governors embarrass-
ments
When great changes going on, great stresses
bound to develop, and somebody has to take the
heat. Any highway commissioner would be the
hot seat in Minnesota today and critics should eval
uate the commissioners performance with great
deal of restraint We have tried to do this We have
not made an issue of the miles of highway that have

the failure to give adequate consideration to the
very heavy financial stake Of the cities in the high
way time tables.
Others have very properly made an issue Of

A Lady For The Ages

When Eleanor Roosevelt went to live in the
White House, the longest shadows Of the Capitol
Dome fell some of the most appalling sums to
be found anywhere. Those slums are gone.
Negroes, at that time, denied service in
Washingtons hotels. They required to sit in
the balconies Of movie houses. They were denied
admittance to the Hoover-era starvaton-level cul-
tural attractions Restaurants and night clubs that
accepted the patronage of both Negroes and whites
were threatened with the loss of licenses. The re-
verse is true today. The most exclusive Washington
hotels and restaurants open to all. There is no
segregation in the theaters, and law is on the
side of the victims, not the practitioners, Of dis
elimination Eleanor Roosevelts quiet opposition to
the conditions she found in Washington bore fruit
in the administrations which followed her husbands
During her early days in the White House
Eleanor Roosevelt aided and encouraged the strug-
giles of working women to improve their economic
and social conditions. She gave her support to the
many conferences in Washington in those days of
mill hands field workers. and others. And she out
ragged the reactionary de-hards who were then still
dominant in Washington society by inviting dele
gates to these conferences to stay at the White
House.
The conditions and patterns of the Hoover era

and deep conviction to challenge them
They had to be changed and were bound to be

about by the efforts and sacrifices of many, many
people. 1t part of Mrs Roosevelt's way of life

Nevertheless it must be said that hers was by
all odds the greatest individual contribution to the

Why Tax Rates
Brake Recovery

why is it that our tax
system is now getting so much
blame for being a drag on our
economy?" asked the intelli-
gent woman across the dinner
table the other evening. "I
listened to President Kennedy's
TV address on taxes, heard
him condemn our high rates.
promise tax cuts in 1868 and
refer to how much faster the
Common Market countries are
growing than we are. But I've
not heard a simple explanation
Of why the system is a drag
and how our tax rates compare
with those of Europe"
These are pertinent observa-
tions. So here goes with my
attempt at a simple explana-
ton"
No other Federal Govern
ment takes so big a bit out of
the paychecks of workers and
the profits of businessmen as
ours does - and this includes
Communist Russia and the
socialistic and totalitarian ma
tions of Europe and Sou t h
America. None hampers en-
ployment and production with
Sutch confiscatory tax rates as
the United States.
In this country, for instance,
Sc per cent of the Govern
ment'S take comes from taxes
on paycheckS, profits, estates
or gifts. In Communist Rus
sia, in complete contrast, only
Is per cent comes from taxes
on incomes and the IS per cent
balance comes from direct
taxes on Soviet citizens when
they buy food, clothing, shell
ter, etc. In the prospering
Common Market nation of
West Germany, only % per
cent of the central govern
ment's collections comes from
income and capital taxes; the
rest is raised from sales, ex-
else taxes, customs duties. In

nation Of Italy, the income =
capital tax bite is only 26 per
cent. The closest to the United
States in relying so heavily on
income and profits taxes is New
Zealand, which collects 65 per
cent from these sources.
Expansion Penalized
No other Federal Govern
ment in the world penalties in
dividuals or businessmen with
extraordinary abilities and am
bitionS to the extent that our
tax structure does. Our top
tax rate of 81 per cent on in
dividual incomes is confiScato-
ry, can't possibly be justified
on financial grounds for, few
individuals who qualify for
this bracket permit themselves
to get into it. A personal in
come tax rate which reaches
so per cent on as low as
$4,000 of taxable income is
distinctly discouraging to in
dividual isk-taking. AS for
the So per cent tax rate on
corporations, the evidence is
overwhelming that this has re-
tarded American induStry's
ability to reinveSt earnings in
job-creating activities.
Recovery Strangled
No other Federal Govern
ment has held to an oppressive
tax structure as long as we
have with the possible ex-
ception Of Great Britain, anoth-
er nation turning in a slug
gish performance. Every other
nation which slapped on steep
taxes during World War II has
long since reformed them -

No other Federal Govern
ment has accepted" four re-
cessions since the end of World
War II without its leaders get
ting down to work and saying
fatty our tax structure is at
least partially responsible and
reform is overdue. There is no
doubt that our tax rates helped
to strangle the 1859 recovery
for they bit so quickly and
substantially into rising in
comes and profits that the ad-
vance didn't have a chance to
survive. Tax reduction-reform
was bypaSsed in 1860, though,
bypaSsed again in 1861, and
now it's dead for 1862. Mean
while, as Mr.. Kennedy pointed
out, during the past Is months
of economic expansion, Federal
taxes have siphoned out SIS bill
lion more from the economy
than increased Federal spend
ing has poured into the busi-
ness stream. This is measure
of the way our high rates
tend to brake a recovery al
most automatically as it pro-
ceeds. In the first half of
calendar 1868, when Federal
tax collections will be at their
peak, the brake will be on in
earnest and if we don't get
the tax reductions pledged for
this period, the economic con-
sequences for us could be dis
NAL.
Much of this was hidden in
the earlier postwar years, when
the enormous pent-up demands
of the whole free world kept the
United States heading strongly
upward. Now, in this new COM
petitive era the realistieS have
become clear, and, significantly.

effects of our tax rates is vir-
