TAX THE UNTAXED While Washington is considering increasing the already depressing burden of taxation on businesses and individuals, it would be wise for officials to con- sider seriously some tax sources which at the moment are untapped. Not only are these sources failing to pay, but they are in active competition with busi- nesses which, under existing laws must pay —and pay heavily. We have in the United States a large group of organizations exempt from profits levies. These in- clude certain foundations, trusts, educational institu- ](‘ imated that cooperatives alone had over $500,000,- 000 in untaxed profits in the $17,000,000,000 gross they did last year. Most damaging effect of the spread of this sort of competition is that almost every new venture takes an old established industry out of the taxpaying family. When a tax-free foundation buys a going factory the taxes which that factory formerly paid are lost to the | national income. The deficit must be made up by | additional levies on the remaining production struc- ture. Thus double damage is done. When exempting tax laws were passed these de- | velopments were not foreseen. ,They came as more | and more tax-exempt organizations discovered the loop hole. If Congress would repair the gaps, a new and perfectly logical source of national revenue would appear. The need for additional income, which is the foundation of the tax increase proposals, would disappear at least in part, if not completely. States Are Shown How to Safeguard Schools lsv.m]v Time: Governor Dewey has just signed into New York law a strong measure designed to rid the State’s | public schools of teachers belonging to subversive | organizations that advocate overthrow bv force of the United States government or any of its political subdivisions. The New York law directs the govern- !ing board of that State's public school system to issue a list of subversive organizations and makes member- ship in any crganization so listed grounds for removal | or refusal to appoint. It is regrettable that some similar measure, ap- plicable not only to the public schools, but also to the whole educational system, including the institutions of higher learning, has not been enacted in the State |, released by Juneau. follow: Anchorage of Washington, and, indeed, in every State in the Union.
