It it apparent that we are not going to have a tales tax, at feast, from th» Masha ofcongress. ^omeare mourning over this «fating the need of balancing tbe national budget and ' Tbe aatkta b Wa bad financial condition tôt two reatona; it has aver bean became war is always expensive and we loaned bfen^bfe to cdUect, second, government expenses have not been reduced or readjusted to the lessoned costs of the last three years. We rilust either stop giving moratoriums to foreign countries and devise some means of collecting what is due us or we muft pay therost of oar part of the war and our allies’ share as well. To do th!« we will have to raise in taxes more than we have raised at any time before in our history. Congress would be in a better position* to demand larger taxes from the people if it first had lowered government expenditures to conform with the present trend of economy. Several millions must be saved in government expense before large taxes of any kind will be acceptable to tax payers. - ‘ . It seems to this paper that the s$les tax should be the very last resort as a means of raising great sums of money. A tax on tbe transfer of stocks would raise no small sums of money and serve as a damper on excessive tradings that often tend to depress market for commodities without justification. A 5 percent tax on theatre tickets below a certain ,sum and a larger tax on higher priced ones would aid in the search for government finances. A tax on the luxurious automobiles, expensive jewelry and such baubles of the rich would yield some returns. The exemptions in the income tax law gives every family of any size approximately $200 per month free of taxes. The rates on incomes of five to Tbe Brogan family were here Sun day visiting with Mr*.
