This capital is not usually represented by cash or readily I marketable securities, but it may be a business built up by the de cedent through his life time, or property long held, for which there is no Immediate market in conse quence, to pay inheritance and es tate taxes in cash executors must sell the property which comes in- I to their hands at what is equival ent to a forced sale, with the us- I ual consequences of loss lu value. "the effects of these exces sive taxes are two fold; first, they tend to lower values throughout the country by reason of forcing upon the market securities which cannot be readily absorbed, thus lowering the very level of values upon which inheritance and estate taxes are actually based. Second ly, they take away the inspiration to work in order to build up a ous ilness or create a property. "The burden of taxation is one 'from .which relief must be found, j It touches directly and indirectly rfi all ot our citizens. The most ob ftuvious field of economy is for the I government to spend less. It is, j however, equally desirable that the i ....... 1... V... Ik. twntrammnt nn I its citizens be productive of gov ernment revenue and not destruc tive of the property of the taxpay er, for it 1b what the tux payers give, rather than what the govern ment ultimately spends, which measures the effect of the tax up on the citizen. We should, there fore, by a simplification of our method of taxation and the imposi tion of economically sound rates of taxation, make certain that the government realizes more nearly the values which the citizen re linquishes. At the last few annual meetings of the national tax association, and at a recent conference of the tar commissioners, of several states, the position has been tak en that the federal government should withdraw from Uie field of estate taxes. Tills view bas mucn to .commend it. Historically, the federal government has entered this field only on the occasion of war emergency and in every case, except the present, has withdrawn when the reason for exceptional taxation ceased. The emergency created by the great war, when last the federal government en tered the field, has ended. The right to Inherit property owes its existence, not to any federal law. ' but to the laws of the states. Fed- eral estate taxation, thereforehas inot the natural excuse which is 1 conceded to state inheritance taxa ! tlon. I The federal government being in the field however, play with rates as excessive as those recently adopted, results in a very material decrease in the amount and value of the property upon which the states levy their inheritance taxes. If the states are to suffer diminu tion In revenue from this source, thev can make up their losses on ly by higher taxes In other fields. "Already the taxes levied by the. stales upon land are so high as to menace the prosperity of the farm er. For the sake of the revenue which the federal government re ceives from this source being in the last fiscal year only 103,000, out of $2,7(10,000.000 total internal revenue taxes for that year the federal government should be careful to see that lndlreclly it is not taxing the very persons whom it wishes to relieve while we may not be able to absorb so grejt a loss of revenue in one year, we could provide for gradual retire ment from the field as our govern- "--', ...
