The fact that 95 per cent of what is commonly spoken of as “Big Biz” is actively and energetically fighting the Nolan bill furnishes quite satis- factory and convincing evidence that the bill is a meritoricus plan of taxa- tion and that it should have the earnest support of farmers and indus- trial workers generally. The forces of privilege are too shrewd, too cunning, to come out into the open and confess that the bill would hit them, and therefore they fight it under a camouflage of great concern for the poor farmers, with which they mask their machine guns of misrepresentation. 3 The provisions of the bill would im- pose a tax of 1 per cent on all hold- ings of land, valued at more than $10,~ 000, exclusive of all improvements— clearing, buildings, fences, tiling, irri- gation—in fact everything done by la- bor to add value to the land. WHO WOULD BE HIT BY PROPOSED TAX? Who will be hit by such a tax? Cer- tainly not farmers. It is doubtful if there is a farmer in Brunswick town- ship (where the writer lives) who would be touched by this bill .should it become a law. It is exceedingly. doubtful if 2 per cent of the farmers . in all Wisconsin would come under the law. How about" the -Astor family, holdings in New York City, where, land has been pushed.up by monopoly conditions to a selling’ value of from $75/ to $90 per square foot? ~How about lots in our own-metropolis for, which owners charge $80,000 per an-: num ground rent? Look back 10, 15° or 20 years when these owners were: content with $10,000 per year as' ground rent, but as monopoly tightens its grasp their toll from industry in- - creases.. How would a 1 per cent tax on land values in excess of $10,000 . affect the vast holdings of eoal and oil lands, of waterpower sites, ete.? It- is these privileged holdings of natural resources of great value that would be hit by the Nolan bill. It is the monopoly grasp of natural resources and trade instrumentalities that causes $20 per ton for coal, war-time - prices for steel, etec. S An old-time conundrum was “What will make more noise than a pig under a gate?” Answer, “Two or three pigs,” of course. In the case of this bill, pretty much all the pigs of monopoly are under the Nolan gate, and they want exceedingly to squeal, but know very well that it is better policy for them to instigate the farmers to do the squealing for them about the in- ’ justices and hardships which may be imposed upon' agriculture should the Nolan bill be enacted into law. : GEORGE F. COMINGS. Madison, Wis. . : FARMERS GET “TRIBUTE” . Editor Nonpartisan Leader: I just’ came across an article where General J. J. Pershing pays tribute to the' American farmer. I suppose tribute is all we get, as we don’t get anything:- for our corn and no financial aid what- ever, and as tribute will not pay our debts and make us a living he will have to come again if he expects us to feel as though our sacrifices were-ap~ preciated. Of course it was our duty to feed the people during the war, ag |
