Do you think you'd E like to go,on.a vacation for the rest-of.your life? Tf so, consider this story which the Boston News |’ Bureau tells about Charles S, Mellen, former pres- ident of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad: : ‘Mellen can’t. shake off the habits and instincts| which he acquired in the railroad business. When_he motors into New York from his sum- mer home. in Stockbridge, Massachusetts, he sees| to it that the chauffeur handles the trip like the engineer of an express train. cath rere Mellen has made out a time-table, showing ‘the exact minute his auto should reach certain points. He sits.in the back of his car, holding his. watch and time-table, keeping tab on how. his engineer- chauffeur is maintaining the time schedule. You.can’t shake off the habits of a lifetime.. In some mines, coal cars.are brought ta the sur-| face by a mule hitched to a drum or wheel which revolves and winds up a cable as the mule walks around it. ze, iy ‘Turn,the mule out to pasture in his old age.

Z A. The adoption of this form of tax- ation in’ place of the present tixes‘on profits would certainly simplify: the work and therefore greatly decrease. the burden of the Department ‘of In- ternal revenue. The department is now way behind in its work of checking re- turns on profits taxes. Dr. ‘Thomas 8. |Adams, formerly chairman of thie tax advisory board of the United States government, in an article in the New ‘ York Evening Post, August 4, 1920, said; “In the long run-a general: sales tax in place of the income and profits taxes woud greatly simplify the werk of the bureau of Internal Revenaoy? Q. Could the sales tax be appliedto the Grain Trade, especially. option transactions? If so, how? A. The sales tax as now advocated would not be applied to the sales’of securities or of contracts on produce exchanges. The reason for this, briefly, is that the rate'-would prevent the transaction and would not produée the revenue. Every tax has‘a maximum revenue point ‘beyond which an in- crease in ‘the rate tends to dimish the revenue, and it also has a poten- tial maximum where it is actually des- tructive of the object of the tax. .
