On reading hi Pullman ticket, which, if it is for the minimum distance, costs $3.75 finds that he is paying the Pull- n company only $2.50 and the aining $1.25 to the railroad company for hauling him.

Mr. Willys has fought his way to the top with ma: skill and a “stick-to-it-tiveness” that have made his s in this field remarkable. automobile business through lucky purchases of stocks, but this man has toiled hard making an original investment of a few thousands grow into millions. | But that feat however spectacular does not alone com-' mend Willys to the nation. F vision, his optimism, the putting into motion the wheels of industry through which | other men can prosper, thousands earn good incomes, the} making of the world generally ‘better to live in and the turn- ing out of products that attract buyers are the attributes <40f success that bring real satisfaction. ~~~ Amassing of great wealth in itself brings little satisfac- .tion to the true builder. The great organization that sur- rounds him, pulsating with life and enterprise after all is the real monument and that is why this community is pleased to honor a good American and a great industrial leader in John N. Willys. Nor would mention of this event be complete without extending felicitations to W. E. Lahr, head of the Lahr Motor Sales Co., who has an institution Bismarck can well be proud of. It has grown from small beginnings to one of the largest single distributing stations of automobiles and tires in North Dakota, reflecting always the enterprise of Bismarck and the Missouri Slope. erly | HALF A LOAF Tt is very evident from the progress of tax legislation in the Senate that the country will get but half a loaf in the way of reduced taxation and freedom from the burden of ireqvitable application of rates of taxation. There was a s rong demand at the v outset of consideration of ti legis’ation for reductions which would loosen the fetters of taxation on business, permit investment of capital in busi- ness instead of tax-free securities, and bring benefit to alll! people through increased business activity and a possible consequent reduction of the cost of living. But a coalition in the Senate, desiring to soak somebody and unwilling to bring themselves to consider any recom- mendations from the Treasury on an unbiased basis, has disturbed the broad plan of taxation outlined. It is likely that. the tax bill when it finally emerges into law will repre- sent the hodge-podge of compromise and prejudice, as much as the result of a thorough economic consideration of the Measure. While there are certain legislators desirous of effecting! sociological changes through taxatioon, Great Britain is find-| ing that she could not do so by taxes which approached con-} fiscation. Philip Snowden of the Labor cabinet, had the courage to present a budget designed to meet the pressing obligations of Great Britain, but as far as possible to remove taxes from business. He urged this as a means of economic betterment, increasing business and lessening unemployment —— ‘ WOULD ENLARGE SCOPE Many interested in agricultural subjects have followed for years the very intelligent and comprehensive reports on crop conditions and farm production gathered and distri- buted by the International Institute of Agriculture with Offices at Rome. A movement is now on foot which will pro- foundly change the modus operandi of that institute. i According to the plan of some Americans, the institute would cease to be merely an office for the collection and dis- tribution of statistics on agriculture but acting through an international secretariat of agrarian association play an active part in controlling the production and distribution of farm products. In submitting this proposal a! member of the institute said conditions of agriculture forced those engaged in this industry to take collective economic action. Reference was made in defense of such action to the strides made in the United States in the cooperative handling of farm product Doubtless there is a field for the institute in directing production and distribution but to set up a machinery that would function for all nations represented presents the chief problem. Those who have profited by the excellent reports of this institute would not like to see that good work impaired for the more difficult service of directing production and distri- bution which from a world angle is no small job. WARNS DEMOCRATS The New York Times, an independent newspaper of Democratic leanings, warns the Democrats of over confi- dence. It declares that if the Democrats rely solely upon corruption revealed in the various congressional investiga- tions they may have an issue on their hands that will “wear thin” before the November election. In passing this com- ment is made: ~ ; “If it were merely a case of the Democrats looking about or some one to pit against a discredited Republiean Pres- ident, the thing would be comparatively simple. But Mr. lidge is free from taint or the suspicion of it. He will beat.” _ It will be impossible for spring to wear out her welcome. ; Many have made millions in the DEMOCRATS road company for hauling its cars. The passenger paid the road for hauling him and the Pull com- | ‘for the privilege of using its That was a logical and sen- arrangement. Whatever the rate is, it should be based on s an arrangement.

WILL NAME CANDIDATE New York, May 9.—Madison Square Garden, where the National Demo- cratic Convention will meet in June, always has been a place of crowds, from the days of the Civil War period when it was the metropolitan terminal for a great railway, through the phase of its transfor tion into a gigantic “fest-halle, years ago, until the present. Always its career has been spe¢tac- | ti ular. Crowds have passed through its portals to attend the arrival of pennant-covered trains in when railroads were making peed records. Grand oper: have made their debuts there, boxers and wrestlers have gained and lost championships, ‘six-day _ bicyclists have pedalled their weary courses, bronchos have been busted, elephants have trumpeted, and clowns jhave cayorted, flo ed, and under its rafters. Adding notoriety to its variegated history the Garden Tower, which rears its weatherbeaten 10 stories above the rest of the structure, was the scene in 1906 of a sensational murder, the killing of the -arehitect of Madison Square Garden, Stanford White, at the hand of Harry K. Thaw. Before it quit the work-a-day world to enter the realm of pleasure, the Garden was the New York, New shows have bloom- is have thundered Haven & Hartford Railroad's cen- tral station in this city. Then P, . Barnum, whose local museums, traveling circuses and epigrams were bringing him fame, leased the rambling structure for “entertain- ment and exhibition” purposes, in 1873. He named it “The Hippo- drome.” Two years later Gilmore, the fam- ous bandmaster, gained control of the property, rechristened it ‘ more’s Garden,” and put on a series of concerts. It was not until 1879 that the place took the name of the beautiful park it faces, and became Madison Square Garden. To the eye, however, it still was a railroad station.
