Isaiah, who spoke and wrote to the point, tells the story of conditions 2600 years ago and also we have ample information as to what happened to government and its gangsters. The condition simply was the natural sequence of the way people let things drift.

What is the excess-profits tax? A. A tax on excess profits. Q. What are excess profits? A. Profits In excess of a reason able return on capital invested. Q. Are excess profits conscionable? A. The practice of gouging exceae (or reasonable l profits out of the people In tbe stress of war has always been considered as highly reprehensible and as even unpatriotic. Q. Was this largely the reason for the Imposition of th' excess profit tax? A. It was. Q. Is there any reason for continuing the making profits? A. None whatever, except Inherent greed. Q. Would we stop the making of excess profits by repealing the tax? A. We would not. The same spirit of greed which prompted thlr exaction In the ftrst place would continue with unabated force. Q.
