The Erosion OF The
Progressive Tax Principle

The debate on the tax-cut proposal should serve
to alert the American people to the fact that our
traditional progressive income tax policy has been
Ghiseled away and perverted until we now have,
actually, regressive policy.
Along with the proposed tax cuts-smau in the
Eow-income brackets and substantial in the upper
reaches are getting series of reform" propos-
ais that will put the loEw-ncome taxpayer at still
further disadvantage. Deductions for real estate
taxes and interest, for example, are a very sub
sbantial advantage for the small home Among
the reform" proposals the cancellation of these
deductions.
On the other hand various gimmiclos by which
the larger taxpayers allowed to escape substan-
hal tax liabilities will be continued Such things
the depletion allowance in the oil industry, the re-
duced tax capital gains, and the many loopholes
which big taxpayers always find because it is to
their financial advantage 10 hire experts to look
for them, will continue.
So the progressive tax policy that began so
Realistically when the income tax amendment was
written into the Constitution has been eroded and
chiseled away through the years that it is quite
different from the original conception What has
happened of is that Congress has had great
deal of advice and even help at tax-writing time,
from resourceful, wel-informed, aggressive and
very wealthy-cftizens. Ordinary people, including
InOSe WHO nave 10 taxes on incomes SO Tow
they don't meet the governments own minimum
standards, have not been at hand to give advice but
have trusted that their elected representatives
would do the right thing.
The White House appears to be puzzled because
the Presidents tax-cut proposal has evoked no very
enthusiastic support It may be that the rn-of-the-
mill taxpayers beginning to what has
been happening. Or it may be that they are simply
Indifferent.

A Challenge We
Should Accept

Many readers have called to give their reactions
to our recent editorial about the young hooigans
in St. Paul who responsible for disorders there
a short time ago.
Some-a ninority-took rather strong excep-
tion to the editorial. They thought we were too
harsh. They pointed cut quite correctly that the
incidents had been badly exaggerated in the reports
in the daily press. They pointed out, again quite
correctly that this is the (evidenty provoked

pointed out that white boys often more-and

Negro youths that these incidents in the fancy

the offenders the incidents played down in
the news and quite often go unreported. They
pointed that the Negroes at Central high school
are subject to endish provocatfons by organized
white group-a point which covered in our
editorial.
AL of this is true. The fact remains that a
group Of young Negroes has committed acts of
violence against other persons and this cannot be
tolerated. Similar acts have been committed by
young white students, and this cannot be tolerated
either. But for the Negro community offensive be-
havior by young Negroes is special problem.
1t is an ironical fact and of course just bit

Socialist Labor Party Man
Thinks Riehurd Wilson's
Position Is Impressive

Editor: Richard Wilson states
the case of both Negro and white
worker in a very impressive man.
ner minneapolis TRIBUNE, Sept.
28) in quoting what Joseph P.
Lyford says in a Fund For the Re-
public publication: Even when
law and other pressures has
brought racial discrimination un-
der some effective control, the
probability has to be faced that
chronological changes will soon
make it impossible for fifty per-
cent of our high school graduates,
white or black, to find employ
ment of any kind"
Still more impressive is the find
ing of eight scientists, after sew
eral months study of the effects of
automation on our economy, pub
ished in the Chicago DAILY
NEWS, that automation is fast
developing to the point where two
percent Of our population can pro-
vide all our needs. In a competi-
tive economy every tool that elm
mates mans work must be adopted
to meet competition in the market
place - there is no choice.
Today the worker buys back
about II percent of the wealth
created by him in the industries.
With the work force reduced to
two percent of our population, can
our economy stand the loss of that
percent of sales.
All the automatic machine would
buy back is a drop Of oil now and
then and perhaps a few repairs. 1t
needs no foreman and no superin-
! tendent and scientists tell us if it
makes an error it backs up and
corrects itself. A capitalist solu-
ton of the problems automation
causes must mean a military con-
troll so complete it would be the
envy of even the Birchers or the
Khrushchevs.
The only solution 10 automation
worth considering is the Socialist
Labor Party solution of collective
ownership, with the product made
for mans use under an industrial
democracy. - Yours respectfully,

Buying Boycott In
Memory OF Children

Editor: How important is civil
rights to us? The Negro in the
North? We have not fought man
killing dogs, been constantly sub
jected to police brutality, or been
jailed for demanding our rights.
What are we sacrificing for Civil
Rights q? The idea of not purchas-
ing gifts, toys or extra clothing
for Christmas appeals to me.
What a sma1l sacrifice when
Medgar Evers gave his life. Con-
slider the plentiful Christmases in
the past and those in the future,
is this such a supreme effort ?
When I think Of the over-spoiled
children and self-indulged adults
who will bypass this chance to
contribute one small spark of rae
ial unity, it makes me ashamed.
Poor Santa Claus, what will the
children think ? What to tell them
How about explaining his grief be-
cause of the injustices suffered by
Negro children in other parts of
the country. Then they will see
Santa standing on many corners
smiling, jolly and wishing all a
Merry Xmas. Another explana-
ton? The money buys food for
people who have nothing to eat. I
have already started 10 explain an
unusual Christmas to my children.
This is not easy, but daily for
several months teleWsion has been
constantly covering the racial
problem. I pray this boycott is
successful, why? Because I have
not the courage to march in a
protest demonstration in Alabama.
Because I would hide some place
rather than be snapped at by a
dog, knocked down and injured by
water hoses, or beaten by officers
clubs. And because I would stay
home with doors locked rather
than go to Jail.
I thank God I do not have these
trials to Withstand, although I feel
I must contribute something, time,
energy, anything possible. How
many of your children are realis-
tically removed from the import
ance of this racial revolution? Let
them become a part Of it, their
future is involved.

2. Develop appreciation Of the

camping trip was to work on our

and successfully completed. We
made our own hike stick, learn
