MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. M"EDFOHL. OREO ON'. FRTDAY, FEBRUARY 2S, 193E. PAGE FfVE CONGRESS FACES JOB OF DECIDING FORM JD RATES (Continued from Page One ) memorandum which Hated the levies aa follows: Permanent taxes: Bonus 1120,000,000. Farm program $500,000,000. Temporary reimbursement taxes 500.000,000. Total In round figures $1,12.000,000. Total necessary $1,137,000,000. The chief executive was emphatic In differentiating between new and old taxes. In the former category he placed only the annual $120,000,000 for payment of the bonus. In considering methods of recap turing the lost processing taxes, Mr. Roosevelt said the possibilities of a retroactive tax had been thoroughly explored. It was felt such taxes were probably constitutional, but worked many hardships. The windfall tax, he added, would probably take the form of a levy on Incomes. In all Instances, Mr. Roosevelt said, he was leaving to the determination of congress the method of imposing the levies and suggesting only the amount needed. Speaker Byrans said at his press conference the ways and means com mittee would start hearings on taxes next week, that they should require no more than a fortnight, and that the tax program should not delay adjournment of congress. "The house ways and means com mittee undoubtedly will write the tax bill." he said. "Of course, the sensi ble thing to do would be to confer with the president and the secretary of the treasury." It was the death of AAA. with its proceslng taxes, and the enactment of the bonus over the president's veto which knocked the big holes In the budget submitted last month.

NEW BASIC RATE OF 2 CENTS SET FOR ALLjOUTES (Continued from Page One.) trains offering a "definitely supe rior" service. Dissenting commissioners were Chairman Charles D. Mahaffle and Commissioners B. H. Meyer, Frank McManamy and William E. Lee. Mahaffle expressed the view that a cut might have the effect of sub stantially reducing revenues to the eastern carrier, while Meyer expressed the opinion that the reduction was not great enough. The majority opinion followed the recommendations of Examiner Irv ing L. Koch In a report last July. May Be Court Action. It was thought possible some of the eastern carriers might go to the courts In an effort to overthrow the decision, but they have made pub lic no plans to this effect. Commissioners Clyde B. Aitche son. Carroll Mlllern W. M. W. Splawn and Marlon M. Caskle Joined Porter In supporting the reductions. Commissioner Hugh M. Tate did not participate In the case. In his dissent, Meyer said that, applied to the present volume of traffic, the new rate would not yield any Increased revenues to the railroads. McManamy said the commission did not have authority under tne law to "assume managerial duties" over the carriers, and that the re duction would have that effect. ' By fixing the Pullman fare at a cents, the commission changed tne basis for these charges and elimi nated the present Pullman sur charge. The effect of the order Is to place Pullman fares on a flat 3-cent basis. Instead of on the former basis ol surcharges, which made Pullman fares average 4 cents per mile.

Communications The leralued Iktjr To the Editor: In all the speeches we have heard recently from prospective candidates for the republican nomination for : president, not one has mentioned the "gold standard." Thoy declaie in favor of "sound money." but no further. Quite recently former Presi dent Hoover is quoted as complain ing of the threat arising from the "devalued dollar, widespread bank credit Inflation and the posslblle menace of currency Inflation." This statement Is very misleading. What happened? Gold was "demoni tlzed," but the dollar was not "de valued" In the process. Gold has been withdrawn from all participation In our financial structure, and its price raised from $20.67 to $35 per ounce, and bought by this country, strictly as a commodity. The government has removed gold from all banks. Including the Feder al Reserve banks, voided the gold n SS5 clause In all private and public con tracts, forbade private ownership of sold, canceled the gold clause in the gold certificate, redeeming tarns In currency. All of which naturally meant the abandonment of the "gold standard." What effect did all this have upon the purchasing power of the dollar la the United States? Absolutely none. The content of the silver dollar was not changed at all and will now buy three time Its own weight In "un stamped virgin silver." Neither was the parity between sliver and cur rency changed In the process used In "demonltl&lng gold." Perhaps the greatest "fraud" ever put over on the American people was the "gold standard" and the endless propaganda as to It "divinity," "Intrinsic- value" and "staple qualities. However, when the government "de monltlBed" gold, its only noticeable effect was to raise the rates on "for eign exchange." There waa not a ripple here and prices on commodi ties in the United States did not rise for many moons thereafter. The raids that did take place and for which wo are now om plaining were brought about through other causes; combin ations; drought; government Inter ference cotton, hogs, etc.) and In no way through a "cheap dollar." President Roosevelt has aurely per formed a great service to humanity by tearing off the mask that has bo fuddled the minds of poeple during the greater part of our national ex istence. The price of gold, silver, nlckoLs and pennies, now as always, Is regu lated by "statutory law" and our ability to back up the price witn good and sufficient Interest bearing debt. Mr. Hoover mentions "bank credit Inflation.' but he should not do this In a spirit of complaint, since the same system prevailed through his administration and the many banks going to the wall at that time could have written checks to pay all their depositors. Just as they could now. The real trouble was that they could not dig up "government currency" because the call was too great. There was not enough money In existence to meet the demand. Government "currency inflation" that la paper monev. at that time, would have saved the day. At the present time there la some 50 billion on "deposit" in the various banks of this country, and about o billion In currency in existence. At least half of this currency circulat ing among the people to take care of their everyday cash business trans actions, leaving 3 billion In the banks to take care of the cash demand of an inflation" of nearly 80 billion.

Many people are of the opinion that whatever inflation of money is necessary should be done by the gov ernment Instead of the banks. This Is surely the only safe and sane method, but we do not believe the former president holds to this view. T. W. OHAUSSE. Medford, Oregon. Feb. 28. 1036. $1.00 SPECIAL $100 Hats, Oloves.
