CHICAGO NEW YORE BOSTON Minnesota’s Tax Problem | Legislators of Minnesota are alarmed at the increase in | real estate taxes and are casting about for ways and means to relieve the burden. Several suggestions have been made to distribute the tax load. Agitation has been revived for an income tax. | Minnesota has been a favored abode of many persons | who have gone there to escape income taxes levied else- where. There are several states favored as legal residences for this very purpose. It is likely Minnesota will give careful study to the situation before entering the ranks of states with income taxes. Failing in an income tax, there are those who favor a selected sales tax. Increases in the money and credits tax rate has been suggested as an alternative. Much of Minnesota’s revenue is derived from a gross earnings tax on railroads and telephone companies. Boosting of rates on these earnings is suggested and in addition there is agitation for a gross earnings tax on motor busses and trucks. | ‘There is also consideration of a special license tax on | chain stores. Enumeration of these tax suggestions merely reflects the resentment in that state against any increase in the tax on what is described as “overburdened tangible prop- erty.” ‘The state tax commission has suggested a policy which will “broaden the tax base, to include persons and prop- erty not now contributing to the expenses of government in proportion to the benefits enjoyed.” Increase of taxes on farm property, the commission points out in a recent report, means that large areas of land will revert to the state. A “We have passed the stage of theory,” the report con- tinues, “action is imperative if we are to avoid disaster.” The St. Paul Dispatch discussing the tax agitation un- der the caption “The Hunt for New Taxes” has this comment: “Similar testimony comes from North Dakota, which also has an income tax. Gordon Cox, member | of the staie legislature who helped draft the law, speaking recently before the American Legislators’ Association at Cleveland, reported that there is wide- spread agitation for repeal. ‘It was hoped that the {| property tax could be lowered as a reSuit of the in- come tax,’ he said, ‘but such has not been the case.’ | He also asserted that dairy and beet sugar plants | located across the line in Minnesota because there | is no income tax here, a tendency which applies to | all industry. Business goes where it can avoid such | extra taxation whenever possible. Wisconsin has had this experience and Michigan, considering an income tax, hesitates for fear it will stimulate gradual mi- gration of the automobile industry. “Such considerations lead many to think that be- fore new taxes are invented, it will be safer, besides being more logical, to make the most of existing taxes, to equalize their weight to close administrative loopholes through which much property now avoids the tax list altogether, to improve-assessment and ° collection. Income tax advocates are rich in prom- ises to make the new levy a real substitute; but de- livering the goods is another matter. Fine intentions | like these soon fade. Extreme skepticism is in order.” Still the Best Seller Depression has affected Bible sales throughout the world, but the book still is the best seller, with Bunyan’s “Pilgrim's Progress” next but far behind. Regardless of | its religious significance or whether viewed from the angle of a fundamentalist or the other school, the Bible is great literature and repays the student who frequently Peruses it. As a handbook for ambitious writers, there is none better. The great masters of style have found in the Bible the best instructor. Someone has said that the Bible is the greatest piece of reporting extant. Budding journalists are told to study the Bible for concise, vivid description. It is a masterpiece in brevity and direct diction. | Then within its covers are some of the most superb | stories ever penned. The world’s best literature is predi- | cated to a great extent upon the Bible, There are many | other potent reasons why it continues through the ages to be the best seller. \ | | | | | Good Business News Those persons who appear to hope the current business | become necessities there is no political popularity in rough-and-tumble chaps who fought because they liked to. They were like John L. Sullivan, who loved to swag- ger into a saloon, take a few drinks and then announce that he could lick any so-and-so in the house. But that sort of thing doesn’t seem to happen now. Professional boxing may be in the hands of a fearful bunch of high- binders and chiselers; but the boxers themselves are more polished and gentlemanly than their predecessors ever dreamed of being. The Copper Tariff The principal tariff debate of recent months has been over copper. It has brought forth a multitude of con- flicting opinions. On the one hand, it is pointed out that imports of copper from countries where working and living condi- tions are low, have been partly responsible for the de- moralized condition of the copper market On the other hang, it is said that overproduction is the principal bane } of domestic producers—coupled with the general indus- | trial depression—and that a copper tariff would serve no | useful purpose. | This, like all other economic problems, must be di- | vorced from personal prejudice and examined on its/ merits. American industry is entitled to necessary tariff | Protection—and the American public is likewise entitled to protection against the overly-high prices a tariff sometimes creates. Copper producers and public officials | will undoubtedly give great consideration to the “copper | tariff war” during 1931. Whatever action is taken, it is to be hoped that it aids in restoring a necessary basic | industry to normal conditions. Nathan Straus | There are two ways of judging a rich man. One is to | assay the manner in which he got his wealth; another is i to judge the manner in which he disposed of it. Prob- ably it is the latter method that gives us the best indica-/| tion of a man’s character; and the late Nathan Straus | Passes the test with flying colors. No one knows just how many young men and women i are alive and in good health today who would have died in infancy if it had not been for Mr. Straus. The num- ber must be well up in the thousands. His distribution of milk to the poor children of New York, while not as spectacular as some charitigs, was assuredly one of the most useful bits of kindness ever undertaken by any man. The man needs no epitaph and no eulogy. The mere statement of what he did is enough. He saved many, many children from dying, or from life-long ill-health. Isn't that about as fine a statement as anyone could wish for his gravestone? i Editorial Comment Féitorials. printed below show the trend of thought by other tditors. They are published without regard to whether they agree or disagree with The Trib- une's policies. The Philosophie View (Grand Forks Herald) ‘The Bismarck Tribune refuses to become excited over the proposals that have been made thus far looking to- | ward the removal of the state capital from its city. Such movements have frequently been the occasion for mani- festations of passion and loud denunciation. The Trib- une indulges in no such expressions. It sees in the pro- Posals, not manifestations of unfriendliness toward Bis- marck, but the desire of the movers to benefit their own communities. That desire the Tribune does not criticize. But it takes the position that if a fight should become necessary, Bismarck will be prepared to fight as vigor- ously to retain the capital as any other community is to move it. The present movements, the Tribune thinks, are not likeiy to get beyond the publicity stage. . We are quite inclined to agree with the Tribune. And, while the interest of one community should not be per- mitted to siand in the way of the greater interest of the State, there are in this matter pf capital location certain considerations of local interest Which are entitled to some measure of respect. Bismarck has been the state capital | for forty years, and there has been the rather reasonable assumption that it was the permanent capital. The loca- tion of the capital there has caused investments to be made in Bismarck property which would not have been made without the capital, and the removal of the capital | would impair very seriously many legitimate property | values. In the absence of compelling reasons for removal the property values of citizens and taxpayers ought not thus to be destroyed. Taxes (Duluth Heralds } A brief study of the recommendations of the state tax | commission illustrates what a difficult situation has/ come about through high spending, largely brought | about by high public demands, The commission vigorously opposes a general sales tax, which is sound advice. But in order to relieve gen- | eral taxpayers it proposes the new burden of a state in- come tax, which would be a free gift to competitors of | Minnesota business men in states that do not impose this ioad. | It proposes to increase the railroad gross earnings tax from five ver cent to six, the burden of which would in- evitably be passed on to all the people through increased freight rates. And it should not be forgotten that the increase from four per cent to five, which was to have | relieved the taxpayers, never saved any taxpayer so much as a nickel. If there is no income tax, the commission proposes a sales tax on “luxuries,” but as most luxuries have now that. Also, if there is no income tax, it is proposed to raise | the tax on moneys and credits fronT three per cent to five, and tiat would bring about more tax evasion and would increase the burden on borrowers—for instance, on those who borrow to build homes. Never yet has a new tax saved a penny on the older taxes. Every new tax has been a source of new spending instead of tax relief. Thg commission favors these inno- vations only if the proceeds goes for tax relief. But there are no shackles on the legislature, tremendous ex- perfditures are demanded and many of them must be granted, and it is the surest thing in the world that the general taxpayer would not be relieved in the slightest | degree if all of these new taxes were adopted. Worse Than ‘Futile’ é (New York Times) Senator Walsh of Montana admitted on Saturday that it would be “futile” for the senate to continue its con- troversy with the president over the Federal Power com- situation will become chronic are due to be disappointed. | For instarce, the national automobile chamber of commerce reperts that production of passenger cars and trucks in December, 1930, totaled 155,185 units, or 24 per| cent more than in December, 1929, and 15 per cent more than in November, 1930. December production fixed the total domestic output | of the automobile industry for the year at 3,505,061—38 ber cent below the record year 1929 and only 2 per cent under the corresponding figure for 1927. Current inventories of new car stocks are 25 per cent under what they were a year ago. All of which proves that the man who sells America or the automobile industry “short” for any length of time is due for a disappointment. Fighting for Nothing dJack Dempsey’s action in knocking down one of the Participants in a wrestling bout which he recently ~ Fefereed in Texas reminds one that few pugilists, in this # ring, getting paid for it—which is something of a con- trast with the old deys. i On this occasion Dempsey seems to have been quite - Justified; and it goes without saying that his section drew Yoars of approval from the audience. But the point we are trying to make {s that neither he nor any other box- 4ng champion or near-champion has indulged in any fist fighting, except for pay, for a long time. ‘ day and age, ever use their fists except when they are in The old-time champions were different. They were mission. It is a pity that he did not discover this earlicr. It was on his motion that the senate used up nearly a week in discussing a question that never should have been raised at all. Mr. Walsh now admits that the President has the upper hi Since Mr. Hoover would not knuckle under to the senate, there is nothing more that the senate can do except to make damnable faces. The three commissioners whom the senate wished to remove, by reconsidering their nomination, were duly | appointed, confirmed by the senate, sworn in, and are! now lawfully in office There are only two ways in which they can be got out of it. One is for the presi- { dent to remove them, which he will not do. The other is for the house to impeach them, which it will not do, There is rio possible way of getting the dispute into court. In fact, from the judicial agpect, the dispute has already been foreclosed against the senate by the supreme court. Senator Walsh is quite right in déclar- ing that any further proceedings by the senate-in the ‘premises would be an utter “futility.” Worse than a futility wes the whole attitude and ac- tion of the senate from the beginning. What it was en- Geavoring to do was to usurp for itself an essential part of the power of the executive. It was setting up one of its own rules as superior to the constitution of the United Btates. It should have known in advance that the presi- dent would surely resist its attempted encroachment. ‘When he takes the oath faithfully to “execute the office of president,” and to “preserve, protect and defend the |. constitution of the United States,” he binds himself to maintain, not only for himself but for his successors, every vestige of his rightful power. Upon many ‘presi- dents before Mr. Hoover the senate has made this same kind of attack; but almost invariably it has been re- pulsed and defeated. And in every case the people have rejoiced at the discrediting and discomfiture of a senate that sought to rob the president of a part of his Prerogative. ; ted ‘What is your question?

The half-sheets are jikewise fed through another ma- chine which cuts them in half and perforates between the stamps cross~ wise of the sheet. These two oper- ations reduce the sheets to one-quar- ter the size of the original sheets, each sheet containing 100 stamps perforated both ways. These quar- ‘ers are examinea snd counted and put up in packages of 100 sheets each, stitched through the margins, secured with paper bands, sealed and de- livered to the vault of the postage stamp division for delivery to the post office department when ordered.

Anniversary of SPENSER’S BIRTH On Jan. 16, 1552, Edmund Spen- ser, called “the prince of poets in his time,” was born in London, He graduated from Pembroke col- lege, Cambridge, at the age of 24. Two years later he went to London and found a place in the household of the Earl of Leicester, who later brought him to the attention of Queen Eliza- beth. In 1579, at 27, he wrote and pub- lished “The Shepherd’s: Calendar,” which marks an epoch in the devel- opment of English poetry. It is said to excel the rhythm of Chaucer. Through the influence of Leicester, Spenser was appointed chief secre- to the lord lieutenant of Ire- land. Queen Elizabeth conferred on him an estate at Kilcolman, where he wrote his greatest work, “The Faery Queen.” In October, his castle was sacked and burned by Irish rebels and his infant child perished in the flames., Spenser returned to London broken-hearted and impoverished. He died @ year later and was buried near Chaucer in Westminster Abbey. BARBS CaO “we are Inssfed fast by American finance,” says Lloyd George.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Nephritis Question: Mrs. W. G. asks: “Should @ woman over sixty who has albumin use eggs in any form? Should she use cream of tartar in the drinking water, and is sugar harmful in this complaint? She has been advised to drink a tea made from the digitalis plant. Is it good for her?” Answer; The albumin found in eggs while similar to the albumin found in the urine is not the same and has no special bearing upon - nephritis—the usual cause of al- bumin in the urine. I do not advise cream of tartar in the drinking wa- ter, nor sugar, for this condition. Digitalis is a poison and a tea made from it could not be heneficial in nephritis.
