Teddy’ s Narrow Escape
Argil infill for Corporation Tax.
¡Senator Bourne, of Oregon, who
yesterday advocated the corpora­
tion tax amendment to the tariff
bill, is essentially a man of the peo­
ple. A progressive tpye of states­
man, be is, at the same time, con­
servative.
Absolutely independent in thought
and action, he has pronounced con­
victions on the pending legislation,
and he presents them in a logical
and convincing manner. He does
not profess to speak for the Presi­
dent, but there is little doubt that
he more accurately outlines the
President’s view c? this exercise
tax than did the chairman of the
Finance Committee, who presented
the amendment. It is well within
reason to believe also that the heads
of many corporations share fully
bis opinion touching the benefits
surely to arise out of the publicity
feature of the measure.
As a mere revenue raising make­
shift, as we have said before, the
corporation tax would have little to
commend it, but as a step toward a
governmental policy of supervision
and control—made necessary by
twentieth century conditions—this
legislation is of far reaching im­
portance, and destined, we believe,
to be for the country’s general
good. It is this aspect of it with
which the Oregon Senator deals,
and his argument is strong and
maybe read with profit.— Washing­
ton (D. C.) Herald.
