Sales would have bheen limited and thou- sands of workers in the Ford indus- [tries denied employment. Wages, too, would have been low. This and more concerning the evils of high surtaxes on industry were told Samuel Crowther by the Detroit manufacturer in an interview which will appear in an carly issue of Col- lier's “High taxes on the rich do not take burdens off the poo: Mr, Ford told his interviewer, “They put burdens on the poor, \,q far as our company is conserned, we can go on about as we are now, whether the swrtax be 256 or 50 per cent. We can make [ unable some improvements, but we cannot do | the great things we should do had we | more money, hould Pay 'or Production “Wo all have to pay some taxes, but the greater part of what we pay ought to go for progductive purpose for good roads, for schools, for bet- ter health and all those things which make life casicr. DBut we ought to pay 65 we go and not attempt to have things we cannot afford to have. We could afford to have a great deal more than we now have and pay out less moncy. That we can do by wast- ing less than we now waste, “But there is nothing more dan- gerous to the prosperity of the coun- try than putting heavy taxes on (those who seem to have more than they need. “From a purely selfish standpoint, it does not make the least dificrence to me whether the government taxes me 1 per cent or 99 per cent. 1 do not know exactly, but 1 imagine 1 could live just as I now live on 1 per cent of my fincome. 1 am not iIn business to make money as moncy, but to do many things which 1 be- lieve are of public benefit, and 1 be- lieve 1 can put my money to better !public use than the government can. “Take the Ford car as an illustra- tion. With the high surtaxes advo- cated as a benefit to the poor man or the man of moderate means, I doubt it ever we showld hav reached a point where we could have produced a car under $1500, and that enly by paying very low wages. “The men who tell the country that the high incomes must be cut down are not working for the benefit of the masses, What they are really saying |is something like this “‘You workmen and farmers have got all you ought to have. Let us stop right now. From now on this country must be run for the benefit of politi- cians.’ “Any administration or legislatots that advocate high taxes ought to be run out of office, because what they are really advocating is the high cost of liv e any set of Cass Probably Will Be | Taken to Canada for Trial | Boston, Feb. 26, — United States | Attorney Robert O. lefl! announced {today that he would move before U. ‘!

Pullen, superintendent of health department said this morning. The city guarded against a repeti- tion of its troubles with Swanson Brothers by inserting a clause in the | new contracts that the department of | health could have collected, at the contractor’s expense, in every instance of justifable complaint. These pay- ments arc assessed against the collec. tor in the form of a fine and are de- ducted from the monthly payments. Inspectors of the department have been devoting practically all their time during the past month to chec ing up garbage complaints, In some |instances it was found that the com- plainant was unreasonable, whilc many cases the coliector had been falling down on the job, according to the inspectors’s report. This system will be continued in an effort to bring about more satisfactory collec- tions.

The postmaster claims he has a permit to carry a gun, issued to him by the police authorit at Plymouth, Whether or not the permit will be | eonstrued as holding good in Water- bury remains to be seen.
