The reader should not lose sight of the fact that Congress has already reliev- ed corporations of around $6,000,000,000 in Zonnection with excess profits. This ac- tidh was taken despite the continuance of thé war with Japan, an expected deficit of $40,000,000,000 for the present fiseal yegr and the apparent fact that the cor- poraiions ef the nation, making huge prof- ite out of war-inspired prosperity, are able tospay their taxes It will not be popular, but neverthe- lege there is little immediate necessity for gtgat reduction in taxes. Thefe is every prospect that business will enjoy a consid- erable prosperity for two or three years. If thie is correct, the government should not hesitate to tax profits heavily ahd to retain high income rates in order to make a start in Feducing the public debt In connection with taxation, it is wise for governments to collect heavy taxes dur ing years of prosperity in order te be able, if a depression give taxpayers positive relief. Cutting down taxes in pros- pasous years means little to the majority of taxpayers, cutting them down in the midet of a depression will mean a great deal o everybody The the States government is not very re Wath a national debt tiens and with the spiinding public employment, thé curs, to but fiscal prospect of United of amazing propor- apparent necessity of guarantee full Jovernment will need al! funds to ASSUTINE. | ties make it hecessary stuff.
