J. P. Pulls a Boner
WE are not surprised to read the -repudiation of his state
ment on tax evasion, by J. P. Morgan.
That statement, delivered when he landed in New Tork
from a sojourn in Europe, last Monday, was an amazing endorse
ment of tax dodging, in the higher brackets.
Mr. Morgan said, in effect, that anything should go, when
tax paying time comes around. "He said he bad never incor
porated his yacht, because he didnt think it worth while, but
he defended the unknown millionaire. who did so.
.
IN other words if the rich man can incorporate his yacht, 'or
himself, a fake holding company, or establish a bogus resi
dence in Canada or Bermuda, and thus escape taxes he, would
have to pay, in the normal course of events, he is entirely
within his rights, and behaving in a perfectly respectable
manner. .
There is no moral obligation involved, only a legal oue;
and if the individual complies with the strict letter of the law,
he is entirely justified in violating its' spirit.
WE don't deny such a course
in the tinner-bracket circles.
condone it, it is quite another
mend it. And thia is particularly true of a person in J. P.
Morgan's position, who correctly or incorrectly is accepted as
the official spokesman of Tall Street, the commander-in-chief,
of the "economic royalist" forces. ;
Mr. Morgan now professes to be greatly surprised that his
"off-hand remarks on shipboard," should have been so grossly
"misinterpreted."
The truth is they weren't misinterpreted. 'Rereading that
statement, now, discloses no other reasonable interpretation,
than the one generally accepted at the time. Any tax evasion
that is technically legal, is morally sound, there are no lengths
to which a tax payer lan not go, if a smart lawyer can keep
him out of jail.
There is little doubt, that a very short time after that state
ment was published, there was a huddle of master financial
minds at the corner of Wall Street and Broad, and J. P. Morgan
the 2nd, was quickly made to see the boner he had pulled.
This assumption is supported, by his explanation published
48 hours later which reads as follows:
"My Interview on shipboard with newspapermen Isst Monday
took place before I had seen President Roosevelt's message on
Income tax evasion, with Secretary Morgenthau's letter. I am.
surprised at the Interpretation some people seem to have put
on my off-hand remarks, for I ceralnly have no sympathy with
tax-dodging or tax-evasion and had no thought of defending
aucb practices. What I feel atrongly Is that when a taxpayer
baa compiled with all th terms of th law, he should not be
held up to obloquy for not having paid more than he owed."
Quite true of course. But what does the individual owet
What does the millionaire owe, whom Mr. Morgan upheld, when
his net income say was $500,000 a year, and by incorporating
his yacht, as a business and writing off the loss, paid let us
say, on only half that amount. Did he pay. what he owed or
didn't het Was be justified in writing off the expense of his
yacht entirely a personal luxury as a BUSINESS LOSS, or
wasn't het
J, P. Morgan says ho was, because there was no law against
it. The fault lies' not with the individual but with the govern
ment.. It's up to the latter, to pass a tax. law' that can't be.
evaded. '
BUT, HOW can that be donet It never has been. We don't
believe it ever will be.
' The private yacht loop-hole can be flupgcd up, of course.
But does Mr. Morgan believe, that a smart lawyer CAN'T find
some other loophole some other legal subterfuge, through
which a man of wealth, can evade his taxes and escape punish
ment! : . Mr. Morgau knows better than that. So does everyone else,
who is at all familiar with the resources of the legal profession,
where only the technical legalities not the moral obligations,
are concerned.
As long as the sky is the limit, as long as anything goes
if it complies with the letter of the law, regardless of its
intent and its spirit, Undo Sam can pass laws to his heart's
content, but those who csn save millions, by dodging them,
and havo utterly no scruples against doing so, will keep a
sufficient number of jumps ahead to esonpe-r-and the govern
ment as usual will pay tho piper.
IT all comes down to this the publio attitude, the essential
spirit. If the spirit which Mr. Morgan so frankly upholds,
is to prevail, then good night 1 no law not supported by public
opinion can be enforced, and no law not supported by any
division of publio opinion, can bo enforced, as far as the mem
bers of that division arc concerned. If an individual or group
of individuals, is determined to ovade a law, regardless of its
provisions, don't worry they will find some way to do it
IT'S very strange. How many pcoplo tbcro arc, who wouldn't
think of putting over a "fast one", in their privato business,
who are honorable and above hoard in every way, but have no
hesitancy, in gypping Uncle Sam whenever an opportunity
offers. He seems to be fair game, for any flim fain, be it keep
ing money away from him, or getting it out of him.
The great surprise in this Morgan statement, is that J. P.
the '.'ml, should subscribe to such a doctrine living in the glass
house that ho does. For while that was tho theory of his father,
it is one the present house of Morgan, we supposed, bad dis
carded. Not only in their privato business, but their public
relations.
CERTAINLY no financial house in the country owes more TO
this country, than that of J. P. Morgan. Us great wealth
has come from America's great natural resources, and to return
in taxes, some material portion, to the government would appear
to be an obligation that would be cheerfully and patriotically
assumed.
But Mr. Morgan savs, if you can escape that obligation by
incorporating something that isn't a business, AS a business,
why it's perfectly OK, as long as they can't pnt you in jail foi it.

Comment
on the
Day s News
By FRANK JENKINS
1EWELRY dealers of the north Pa-
ciflc Coast, meeting In Tacoma
recently, report a new. Index of in
creasing prosperity.
They say that sales of wedding
rings are up about 40 per cent over
a year ago.
THERE'S an old saying to the ef
fect that two can llve as cheaply
ss one. Statistics don't confirm that
notion, because in depression periods
the number of marriages falls off
sharpij. and begins to pick up again
as better times appear.
THE statisticians tell us of another
thing that happens during de
pressions. The urge to wed Is less pressing
when times are hard than In good
times, but' It is still strong. So many
young couples go ahead, regardless of
depression, but Instead of founding
new homes of their own immediately
they move In with the old folks.
When better times come along, tliey
move out into houses of their own,
thus creating additional housing oe
mand. t
That began to happen about two
years ago, and has been going on ever
since, according to real estate figurfs.
It Is one reason why houses are get
ting scarcer.
RENTS are governed by supply and
demand. Just like everything
else.
During depressions, families "dou
bled up," thus reducing housing de
mand. Many people who would nat
urally tire of old houses and move into
new ones restrain their desires In
bad times snd go on living In the
I oW place' A times Improve, the yen
for a new house returns.
These and many other factors re
sult In added demand for houses ss
depressions begin to fade, and s de
mand Increases rents go up.
(And, of course, we csn't overlook
the fact that steadily rising tsxes
must be added to rents. Otherwise,
the landlords would go broke. A 'ot
of us who think we pay no taxes arc
klddlnc ourselves).
BUT to get back to the Jewelers
who met at Tacoma. They tell
another rather Interesting one.
