PAGE EIGHT BASIL M, MANLY GIVES ADDRESS ON “INCOMES” Concentration of Owership and Control of Wealth Is In- evitably Increasing NEED EFFECTIVE ACTION nston, Ill., May 2 People are s of a definitio ictims of a bit cf sharp practice account” in the interpretation of income, Basil M. Manly of Washington, D. C., director of research and investigation for the United States Commission on Indus- trial Relations, told the Conference on Christianity and the Economic Or- der here today. “To put individual in- come” accounting on the same basis as corporate accounting, only surplus over adequate living wage should be counted as income,” he asesrted. “Mr. Manly was joint chairman of the War Labor Board in 1918-19 and an expert of the United States Bureau of La- bor Statistics from 1908 to 1912. “Income as defined for corpora- tions, partnerships and individuals en- gaged in business,” Mr. Manly as- serted, “means net profits, after lib- eral deductions for expenses of op- eration, maintenance, ‘replacemant, obsolence, etc. Income as defined for wage and salary earners mean gross carnings with no deductions for main- tenance or replacement of the human machine. “Of the net product of industry, ac- cording to! the report of the National Bureau ‘of Economic Research, after dedutting the most of raw materials seventy percent goes to wage and salary earners, thirty percent to re- ceivers of rent interest profits. Of the total national income the richest one percent receives fourteen percent; the richest five pereent receives twenty-six percent, tha‘ richest ten percent re- ceives thirty-five percent. The poorest seventy-two percent receives forty- four percent, the poorest ten percent receives two and a half percent, and poorest five perecnt receives nine- tenths percent, In 1918, 521 persons reported in- comes over $500,000, totalling $586.- 439,618—equal to ecarnines of 500,000 peonle at the average ($1,078) report- ed for the same year for all emplov- ces normally engaged in industry, in- cluding. salaried employes. The con- centration cf ownershin and of the control of wealth is inevitably increas- inv, unless restrained by effective action.” o- Ea “dy CITY NEWS Groceries to Close Most of the groceries have announ- ced their intention of cicsing on, Tuesday, May 40, so that patrons are expected to do their shopping on Mon- lay. 4 \| —$ _ _ Delivers Address Lewis F.

This array of full- bloods attired in beaded buckskin and feathered regalia will present a daz- zling sight to the “quill shovers” from. among whose tribe each of the Indian chiefs will select subjects for initia tion into their own tribe.

Watson of No Connection in Case Washington, May (27.—Attorney ‘General Daugherty, in a letter to Sen- ator Watson, Republican, Indiana, read in the senate at tho latter’s re- quest denies that he told the Indiana senator ho had no connection with the procuring of a pardon on Charles W. Morse, as stated by Senator Wat- 8 in the sénate on May 2, when Senator Caraway, Democrat, Arkan- sas, opened his attack on the attor- ney general. Mr. Daugherty: said re rogretted if Senator Watson misunderstood him. He wrote that he remembered the general discussion of the Morse cas? with the senator and added: “I cer- tainly did not make the statement to you that I hado connection with | The attorney general stated that he had no “disposition to deny” his connection with the case and added that he received about $4,000 from Thomas B. Felder in connection with jthe pardon, but that this sum was {sufficient to pay only about half the expenses. Don’t ‘Doubt Watson Senator Caraway told the. senate that there would be no question of misunderstanding; that Senator Watson cither repeated what was fold him, or he had misrepresented the attorney general, Asserting that he did not believe there had been any misrepresentation by the Indi- ana senator, Mr. Caraway sajd an- ‘other ‘Republican senator had told him that the attorney general had made the same denial to him. “Is it true, or is it not true,” said Senator Caraway, “the attorney gen- eral said nothing when the contract was produced in which jt was shown that he did represent Morse. I know that unless the senator from Indiana was intentionaliy misrepresenting the attorney generai and of course I cannot thik he would do that, the attorney general told what the sen- ator from Indiana stated. This is a question beween the attorney gen- eral and his friends. If they are willing to bear the imputation that they misrepresented him in order to pull him out of a hole it is up to them.” PUBISHERS BOOKLET, The Commissioner of Agriculturc and Labor has published. a booklet. combining the present North Dakota Jaws on branding, the }aws.on inspec- tion of cattle and the cstray laws of the state.
