Even This 30,000 Will Not Be Enough|

o

There will be 30,000 Smith Fohn-a-Trucks built this^year—but even this

"huge production will not be enough., So if you have vi aited for further proof of the wonderful economy—efficiency —service value of. this jtremendous achievement in motor transportation, don't wait another day. Over 10,000 users—over 450 lines of work—1 i are all the proofs you need, and there is not a single Smith Form-a-Tniek owner who will not say that he has cut delivery and hauling costs from 50% to 75%. This year you not only get this wonderfal attachment at the price of a good pair, of horses, but you get it adapted

Overland Car. So you can select the power plant-j«u like the best—have the.most confidence in. •. ,., Smith Porm-a-Truck it the mute hauler of the world— the master economizer in hauling and delivery cost —• the master saver in equipment investment. •• Come ih today for a demonstration — but don't put off your order.

Before calling by telephone, ron.-iult the t.-lephone directory and be sure to.iibtiun t.lie eorreot nuniber. Mistakes often result from taking numl)ers from letter lieads, business cards or private memnranda. Do not rely on memory.

Give the number to the operator distinctly and in a moderate tone of voice. With the lips about half an inch from the nu)uth[)ieee. speak clearly the name of the Central office and each numeral, separating the figures of the telephone number, for e-\ample. "Beach, fi)ur-one-five-0" (4150).

Listen when the operator repeats the number. Say "Yes"' if it is right. If she does not (luote it correctly, tell her so at oncc and repeat .the correct number.

As a matter of courtesy, the p.-r.son making the call should he reaily to talk as snon as the line is connected, and the receiver shonid be held at the ear until the called party answers or some report is given by thc operator.

The identity of the person calling should be announced as soon ais the called station answers, I f a wrong station has boon called, say to tlie person-answering, " I beg your pardon, you were called by mistake."" Signal the operator, state that a wrong connection was made and ask for the cor-rect number.

The party calling should end the conversation by saying "Goodbye," leaving no doubt in thc mind of thc party called that the conversation has ended.

On Mar. 23, 1917, tbe House of Sep-resentatites pasised an act' "to prorldo rereuue to defray war expenses and for other purposes." In tbe brieinal bill 'as presented by the Committee of Ways and Means, the additional revenue to be derived wasêstlmated at :^,-810,420,000. The amendment to the Income tax, which was tacked oh to the bill durlne the discussion In tbe House, wna eTpected to ylold-anothor $40,000.-

000 or $50,000,000. "In" discussing the Souse bill, two.

problems arise: I. How much should be raised by

taxation? . II. In what manner should this sum

be raised?

I. How Mueh Should Be' Raised by Taxation?

How was the flgure of $1,800,000,000 arrived at? The answer Is simple. When the Secretary of the Treasury came to estimate? the additional war expense's for the year 1917.18. he calculated that they would amonnt to some S6,C00,-000,000, pf which $3,000,000,000 was to be allotted to the allies,' and $3,000,-000,000 was to be uUiized fpr the do^ mestic purposes. Thinking that It would be a fahr proposition to divide this latter sum between loans and taxes, he concluded tbat the amount to be raised by taxes was $1,800,000,-000.

There nre two extreme-th'eorles, each" the "ITolise" bill.

neeesturlly be uevere should ke bots differentiated and graduated. That i s , there should be a distinction between earned and unearned Incomes and.tbeie should be a higher rate upon the larger incomes. It is ossentiai. however, not to make the income rate so ^^xcesslve as to lead to evasion, administrative difficulties, or to the more fundamental objections which have been urged above.

—(0) Thc cxecs.a profits which uie due to the war constitute tbe most obviopa and reasonable source of revenue dui* ing war times. ' But the principle upon which these war-profit taxes are laid must-be pqiiitnhle In theory and-easll calculable In practice.

The-Proposed Income Tax. The additioDai income tax as passed

by the House runs up to a rate of TO per cent This is a sum unheard of In the history of clvllized'society. It must be remembered tbat it -was only after the first year of the war that Great Britain Increased ber Income tax to the maximum ot 34 per cent , and that even nov in the fourth year of the war tbe Income tax does not exceed 42',.1. per cent.

It couid easily be sbown that a tax witb rates on moderate incomes substantially less than in Great Britala and on the larger Incomes about as high, would yield only slightly less than the $532,000,000 originaHy ertiraate^-hr

ot whieh may be dismissed with scant courtesy. The one Is that all war expenditures should be defrayed by loans, ahd the other Is thatâll war expendl-tures shotild be_ defrayed by taxes. Each theory Is untenable.

It is Indeed true that the burdens ot the wai- shuuld hu borne by the pres-ent rather than the future generation; but this does not mean that they should be borne by this year's taxation.

Jleetlngnll war expenses by taxation makes the taxpayers In one or two years bear the burden of benefits that ought to be distributid at least over a decade within the same generation.

In the second place, when expenditures approach the gigtfntic sums of presentnJay warfare, the tax-only policy, would require more than the total surplus »f gocial Income. Were this absolutely necessary, the ensuing havoc In the economic life of tlie community would have to be endured. But where the disasters are so great and at the same time so unnecessary, tbe tax-only policy may be declared Impracticable.

Secretary McAdoo had the right Instinct and )iighly commendable courage In deciding that a substantial portion, at least, of the revennwi shoul be derived from taxation. But when he hit upon the plan of 50-50 per cent, that Is, of raising one-half of all domestic war expenditures by taxes, the question arises whether he did not go too far.

The relative proportion of loans to taxes is after all a purely business proposition- Not to rely to a largo extent on loons at the outset of a war is a mistake.

Oisadvanteges of Excessive Tsxes. The disadvantages of excessive taxes

at the outset of the war are as follows: 1. Excessive taxes on consumption

will cause popular resentment 2. Excessive taxes on Industry will

disarrange business, damp enthusiasm and restrict the spirit of. enterprise at the very time when thc opposite la needed.

3. Excessive taxes on Incomes will deplete the surplus available for investments and Interfere with the placing of the enormous loans which will be necessary In any v e n t

4. Excessive taxes on wealth will cause a serious diminution of the Incomes which are at present largely drawn upon for the support of educational and philanthropic enterprises-Moreovcr. theso sources of support would be dtied up precisely at the tlmo when the need would bo gtcatest

5. Excessive taxation at the outset of ths wer will reduce the elasticity available for the increasing demands that are soon ta come.

Great Britain's Policy. Take Great Britain as an cxampla

During the first,year ot t'he war sho Increased taxes only slightly, in order to keep Industries going at top notch. During thc second year she raised by

Jiew taxes only 0 i>€r cen t of hcr war expenditures. During the third year she levied by additional taxes (over and abovo the pre-war level) only slightly more than 17 per cent of her war cxi>enscs.

If we should attempt to do aa much in the. first year c t the w t r as Great Britain did In the third year It wonld Bnffllce t* raise by taxation- $1,256,000,. 000. If, In order to bo absolutely on tho safo side. It seemed advisable to Increase tho sum to $1,500,000,000, this should, In our opinion, be the maximum.

It I s t o be hoped that the Senate will reduce the total rate on the highest Incomes to 34 per cent, or at most to 40 per cent, and that at the same time It will j-educe the rate-«n the smaller iJ>-comes derived from personal or professional earnings.

If the war continues we shall have to depend more and more upon the income tax. By imposing excessive rates now we aro not only endangering the future, but are inviting all manner of difficulties which even Great Britain has been able to escape.

Conclusion. The House bill contains otber f u n ^ -

mental defects which may be summed up as follows -•

(1) It pursaos-an erroneous principle in imposing retroactive taxes-

(2) It selects an unjust and unworkable criterion for the excess-profits tax.

(3) Jt proceeds to an unheard-of height in tbe Income tax.

(4) It imposes unwarranted burdens upon thc consumption of the communlt.v.

(5) It Is calculated to throw business into confusion by levying taxes on gross receipts instead of upon commodities-

(G) It fails to make a proper use of stamp taxes.

In its flat rate on import.s-(8) It Includes a multiplicity of pet

ty and unliicrative taxes, the vexatlous-noss of which is out of all proportion tc the revenue they produce.

LUNENBURG

The fundamental linos on which the House bill sbould be modifled are summed up here-Hlth:

(1) Tbe amount of new tax,atIon should be limited to $1.250.000,000—or at the outset to $1,500,000,000. To do more than this wouid be as unwise at It Is unnecessary. To do even thIj would be to do more than has ever been done by any civilized Government In time of stress. .

(2) Thc c-tce.ss-profits tax based npon a sound s.vstem-ougbtr to yield Bboul JoOO.000,000.

(3) The income-tax schedule ought tc be revised witb a lowerins of the rates on earnod incomes bolow $10,000, and with nn nnaloKOUs lowering of the rates on tlio liicher incomes, so as not to cxcooil . 1 per cont. A careful calculation shows that nn income tax of this kind would yield some $450,000,-000 nili i l t i . .nii l .

Ml The tax on •wiiisky nnd tobacco oucht lo remnin npproximntely ns It Is, with a yield of ,nliout $2.'?0.000.000.

Those throo taxe-i- toftothor with the stamp tnx at ovon thc low rate of the House hill, nnd with an improved antomobilo tnx- will yield over $1,250,-000,000, wbich Is tho amount of money thought desirable.

The nhove jtrosrnm would be In harmony with nn approved scientiflc system. It will do away with almost all of the complaint-s that are being urged against the prosont It will refrain from taxing the consumption of the poor.

It will throw a far heavier bnrden upon thc rich, but will not go to the extremes of confiscation. It will obviate interference with bnslness and will keep unimpaired the social productivity of the community.

It will establish a Just balance between loans and taxes and will not succumb to tbe danger of approaching olthor thc tax-only policy or the loan-only policy. Above all, it will keep an undisturbed elastic margin, which must bc more and more heavily drawn upon as the war proceeds.
