Repeal the Hitlej Tax.
To the Editor;
Many individuals, and groups of In
dividuals, curing the oajt year have
voiced their disapproval of a sales
tax. We have no quasVil with these
Individuals. They are thinking about.
a sales tax as an additional tax. As
has been argued by every political
economist from Adam fcrnith down to
the present time, a "sales tax, or
commodity tax, la an unjust and
burdensome tax as an unfair share
of It falls upon the back of the poor
man, or family nun, who must pay
out all his Income for llvlnj ex
penses." And in the meantime, during sll
these many years, this protest has
been voiced, what has actually been
done about this burdensome sales
tax and the poor man?
Over one-half the whole burden of
all the taxes Imposed for state, coun
ty and school purposes Is now levied
as a wiles tn nil SIIKI.TKK. Wo.
who have opposed a sales t?x, and
especially a sales tax ot. a poor man's
and a family man's necessities, have
tnken his one most Indispensable ne
cessity, his shelter, and now compel
him to pay a sales tax upon this one
commodity of edO per year for state.
county and school purposes. This
100 la 30 per cent on $300, the amount
of money the average man spends
annually for shelter.
Here we have been piling on the
back of the working man. and fam
ily man. an Increasing burden of
sales tax on one commodity, his
shelter, and at the same time weep-
In bitter tears when a sales tax Is
discussed, absolutely blind to the
fact that an unbearable burden has
been already placed upon this one
necessity SHELTER. And that Is not
the end, or even the worst feature
about this pernicious sales tax upon
SHELTER. Because of this uneco
nomic sales tax upon SHELTER, a
working man buying a home must
assume an additional burden of ex
cess Interest amounting to three
times as much as this sales tax he
paya. Home ownership on tax ex
empt homes could, and would be
financed so that a thousand dollar
loan would only cost 95 per month.
Remove this sales tax from shelter
and you will remove the principal
obstacle In the way of the federal
government's endeavor to organize
home loan, banks to loan money di
rect to home owners at a 15 monthly
rate per thousand. Immediately home
development and land settlement
would occupy the attention of every
unemployed man 'n the state.
I want those men who so vocif
erously oppose a sales tax now to
join with us in this shelter tax ex
emption movement whereby this 30
per cent sales tax will be taken off
of ahelter, a commodity for which
a working man spends annually al
most one-fourth of all the wages he
receives, and Instead a two per cent
general sales tax be levied. A two
per cent general sales tax would
mean that this working man would
pay a sales tax of two per cent on
1000 "subsistence requirements" In
stead of a sales tax of 30 per cent
on 1300 "SHELTER," or 160, a direct
saving for the working man of 140.
We ask, at this time, every man
nominated to the state legislature,
regardless of party afflllatlc.is. pledge
himself ,to work at the coming ses
sion of the legislature to abolish
this sales tax on SHELTER, and es
pecially should those who have op
posed a salea tax help us to remove
this sales tax now so unfairly Im
posed on this one necessity.

PROSPECT FADES
IN REM DAYS
Form and Conditions of
Referendum Start New
Dispute-Wets Lose Ex
uberanceSplit on Plan
fly li.iron Price
(Chief of Bureau, The Associated
Press, Washington)
Predictions that a ahow-down on
prohibition would be found Just
around the corner appear now to have
been premature.
Despite all the noise and eommo
tlou of recent weeks, many thought
ful politicians are asking themselves
Whether any appreciable progress has
been made toward a solution.
It la true that the controversy has.
so to speak, changed base. For a lonj
iime, opponents or the dry laws have
led the agitation for a resubmission
to the people, and lhe prohibitionist
have been abjectlng. Now aome ot the
dry. are willing, but the firm and
conditions of the referendum have
started a new dlapute.
At first hurrah after hurrah wen
up from the ranks of the modifies
tlonlsts ss an Imposing succession of
dry leaders, democrats and republi
cans, declared that under certain dr
cumstancea they would agree to a,
vote.
But now that the antl-prohlbltlon.
iats have examined these various pro
poaals In detail, they are losing their
exuberance. Henry H. Curran, chief
of the Association Against the Prohi
bition Amendment, goes so far as to
pronounce the whole baton of pro-hlbltlonlst-aponsored
referendum pro.
poaals a snare and delusion; design
ed to befog the Issue and delay de
cisive action.
Whether Curran is right or wrong,
it Is Important politically particu
larly to atraddlers that the ancient
enemies sill are far, far apart.
Neither Side United
Neither is this a matter on which
there la unanlmltf among the wets
or the drya.
Former Oovemor Harry F. Byrd of
Virginia wants to amend the consti
tution so aa to make a referendum
legally possible In case one should be
decided on at aome future ttmo.
Bishop James Cannon, Jr., endorse!
that In principle, with certain Im
portant reservations. Charles M. Hay
of Missouri, long a political ally ot
the Antl-satoon league, also endoraea
It, with other Important reservations.
Claudius Huston, former chairman
of the republican national commit
tee, favora giving physicians control
over liquor dispensation. Senator
Smith Brookhart of Iowa propose, re
submission . only after two-thlrda of
the statea have asked for It.
Some drya will agree to submit a
substitute, but not a flat repeal. Oth
ers oppose any resubmission at all.
And there you are.
Opinions Differ
A single Illustration will show how
difficult it Is going to be. on the
other hand, to bring antl-prohlbltlon
leaders together behind any one
scheme.
In the first blush of enthusiasm
over- the Byrd plan. Chairman John
J. Raskob of the democratlo national
committee declared the propoaal bet
ter than his own. Two weeka later Mr.
Curran, to whose aasoclatlon Mr. Ras
kob has been one of the helvlest con
tributions, described the Byrd plan aa
a political trick full of evasion and
delay.
Nearly svery responsible leader of
the antl-prohlbltlonlsts hss said re
peatedly that he does not favor res
toration of the saloon. In other worda,
the position hae been that mero re
peal, and a return to the old days,
never would do: that some less sweep
ing plan of control must be submit
ted. Curran says his association will
stand for "straight repeal," pre aum
ably with nothing but state control
substituted. How many of he antl
prohlbltlon leaders who are commit
ted against the saloon, will see In
this plan the beat prospect of ral
lying a majority to overturn the pres
ent regime?
And If any substitute at all la ta
be submitted, which shall It be? A
hundred have been proposed, rang
ing from licensed manufacture of
beer and wine only, to a complete
system of governmental liquor sel
ling. Each has Its partisans, and no
wide agreement ever has appeared In
favor of any single one.
rienty of Obslscles
The longer you speculate on thli
situation, the more numerous appear
the obstacles in the way of Immedi
ate action.
How long will It take the drys to
sgree on any single plan? How much
longer will It take to find a formula
that any considerable number of wets
Also will accept?
And after that, how long will It
take to get a resubmission propoaal
past the barrier of legislative red tapa
In congress and In three-quarters of
the slates?
Whoever can see the answer to
these questions will be able to fore
cast accurately when If ever weta
and drya will agree to rest their caaa
before the great Jury of the Ameri
can electorate.
Meantime, the prohibition amend
ment remains.
