NAVY RECRUITiHG OFFICER PRESENTS APPLICANT WITH NEW “ BADGE OF HONOR” PER GREATER THAN ENGLAND ‘ K ortlic first time in history the relative tax burden of the Filiteli States has now heroine heaver than that of E ngland." That list on ¡sliiiiLr fact is stated by Ralph Robey in x'ewsweek. J Under the new tax bill, the per capita tax in this country will be $180 a year. It is $173 in Great B ritain. Our ta x is will amount to about 25 per rent of our national income, as against 22 per cent in England. It ig true, of course, that English incoili taxes are greater tlipi, ours. Blit the English are not Inirdi ned with the vast iiunt- h its of sales taxes, excise taxes and ' ‘nuisance” taxes on which our government dep< lids for much of its revenue. laistlv, the English are not burdened so heavily with taxes h-vied by local government. In Great Britain the national governm ent collects 90 per cent of all taxes; here the federal governm ent collects only about 60 per cent. We cannot blame the cost of defense for the staggering tax load we are now carrying. As Mr. Rohe;, also points out. in Great Britain approxim ately 80 per cent of all government ex penditures an* for m ilitary purposes. Here only about 50 per cent is used at present for those purposes.'H alf the cost of gov ernm ent, in other words. is for non-defense activity. To quote Mr. Robey oine more. “ No ¡¡a,ion in the world, re gardless of how strong if may be. can stand siieli a financial policy indefinitely and m aintain a dem ocratic form of govern ment. With our tax bill now above that of Great B ritain, it clearly is time to come to our sens*s.” HITLER'S PEACE PLAN? H itle r’s final peace plan, to be worked out with utmost real ism and to be called the ‘‘ Proclam ation of N curopa.” will take place either in Berlin or Sw itzerland in the near future, accord ing to Pierre Van Paasson. The plan, as discussed by the author of ‘ Bays of our Y ears.” in the current Liberty Magazine, will be staged by Goebbcls and will announce that German m ilitary operations have been successfully concluded, and that the Reich from now on will fight only a defensive war. The Liberty article predicts that “ representatives” of every European nation controlled or dom inated by H itler will answ er the roll call; will officially pledge themselves to H itle r’s New O rder in Europe. “ W hether or not the Ncuropa peace move can be put neross.” Van Paaaacn writes, “ depends on w hether the nations under the Nazi yoke, the real Europe that is hungering for lib eration. can be silenced completely. “ What underlies H itler’s frantic efforts is by no means a desire for perm anent peace. German reserves of raw m aterials, prim arily oil, are approaching exhaustion, Io n ia n morale had not been geared for a long war. H itler m eds an arm istice t«i give him a lew years in which to prepare for a new war perio«l of expansion, this time into colonial territo rie s.” i THE RECONSTRUCTION PERIOD. The world today faces a r« construction period, w hen the p n se n t arm ed conflict ends. That period might he a few months avyay and at best only a few years off. The final loss can not In* w ritten off until the pay day comes ami it will come just as surely as it has followed every other war. The nation can not wait for an inspiration ami expect to tia«l a panacea for the many ills that may beset us in try in g to rejid^iist ourselves to a so-called new order. R arher the situ a tion should be faced now. preparations begin to meet the emerg- ei|cies. Next year is a campaign year. A good prospective crop of candidates have already appeared. The successful candidates will have the unpleasant task of steering the state and nation through a trying period. Th politicians will adopt policies of popular appeal, the statesm en will advocate policies with a for ward look. Ju d g in g from the present prelim inaries, it looks a.s though the voters will be fed with the same old bunkum. Perhaps nations will abandon war eventually for the same reason that most men do not follow horse-racing: It Is too ex pensive to be indulged in generally, and too uncertain a means of living, in particular. \\ a r is the last resort of bankrupt governments, the U lti mate Ratio of ruined ami desperate gamblers, th.' base specula tion of profiteers, who thrive like parasites upon the d irty fh-.-ee of aili ig monarchies and rotten democracies lb.main Holland.
