Secondly, they take away the Inspiration to work in order to build up a business or create a property; * * *. “The burden of taxation {s one form which re}lef must be found. It touches directly and indirectly all ef our citizens. The most obvious field of economy {s for the govern- ment to spend } It is however, equally desirable that the burden y the government on its citi be productive of government revenue and not destructive of the property of the taxpayer for it is what the taxpayer gives, rather than what the government ultimately spends which measures the effect of the tex upon the citizen, We should, therefore, by a simplification of our method of taxation and the {mposl- Uon of economically sound rates of taxation make certain that the gov- ernment realizes more nearly the values which the citizen relinquishes “At the last few annual meetings of the National Tax association, and et a recent conference of the tax commissioners of several states, the | position has been taken that the federal government should withdraw m the fleld of estate taxes. This has much to commend it. His- ly, the federal government has d this field only en the occa: of war emergency and In every | case, exeept the present, has with: drawn when the reason for excep- nal taxation ceased. The emer: created by the great war, nen last the federal government entered the field, has ended. The | right to inherit property owes its existence, not to any federa! law, but to the laws of the states. Fed. eral estate taxation, therefore, has not the natural excuse which is con: ceded to state inheritance taxation. The federal government being in the field, however, particularly with rates a# excessive ag those recently adopted, results in a very material decrease im the amount and value of the property upon which the | states levy thety inheritance taxes. | If the states are to suffer diminut.on n revenue from this source, they can make up their losses only by | bigher taxes in other flelds, | “Already the taxes levied by the | states upon land are so high as to menace the prosperity of the farmer, For the sake of the revenue which the federal government receives from this source—~being in the last fiscal year only $103,000,000 out of $2,700,000,000 total internal ‘revenue taxes for that year—the federal gov: ernment should be careful to see that indireetly tt is not taxing the very persons whom {t wishes to re- lieve. While we may not be able to ebsorb 60 great a loss of revenue in one year, we could provide for sradual retirement from the fleld as our government expenses decrease," plat le alad raves UNDER THE CAPITOLDOME (Continued Fram Page One) attempted to enact it Into law. They failed ignominiously as they de: served, What they desired to do was to form an irrigation district within a district already {n exist- ence, and then dissolve both, to the great financial harm of the people of the first district. The Greybull valley district in Big Horn county was the one sought to he destroyed. The act introduced in the senate would have accomplished the pur- pose, but its object was disclosed a little too early, and the appearance of F, N. Pearson, chairman of the Greybull district, {np person, upset the plans of the conspirators. If the plans of the Park county people had bi successful, the situation would have been, the Park county faetion in command of the source of water supply and the Greybull peo ple sitting on a great stretch of dry land, Mr, Pearson ts an Iowa man with a number of large investments in Wyoming development enterprises.

Rickard would consent to do thir ¢ he could get the permission of the oexing commission and if a boxer could be found who woyld be will: ing to make the test there is no doubt the Garden would be filled to the roof with pop-eyed spectators. Munn probaby would be willing: he has a long standing grudge to settle against fighters, it belng re membered that when he first de cided to make @ living out of pro: sessional sport he elected the ca rer of a boxer and was knocked cold by Jack Clifford in 1923. What Munn would do to Clifford were they to meet, Clifford being bound by boxing rules and Munn by cules of wrestling, 1s too dreaful to shink about, What he would do to any boxer, from Clifford up to Jack Dempsey, aiso fills the mind with frightful pic- cures. To beat Munn, a boxer weuld have to knock out his man with the pst clip, which is asking a lot of the nardest wajloper in the world. After shat first clip, the boxer would be aff his*feet and no one ean hit with any force when he js on the can: vas. SINDLOT BASEBALL 1S BEING CROWDED OUT BY CHIGAGD BUILDINGS CHICAGO, Feb, 19.
