Different Laws Adopted at
Every Session of Congress
Declares Noted Economist
By Beardsley Ruml
Written for United Press
Death and taxes may be two
mire things in life, but there has
never been anything sure about
federal tax policy In the United
States. We seem to specialize in
adopting a different tax law at
every session of congress.
We can no longer afford to do
this In view of the vital import
ance of stable tax policies to
postwar planning. If we are to
capitalize on the economic op
portunities in our present high
levels of production, and carry
them over into a prosperous
peacetime era, wo must do two
thines about taxes. First, we
must achieve a tax program that
helps production, employment
and markets: and second, we
must stabilize that tax policy so
that individual businesses, in
their own postwar planning, can
count on a tax program that is
both favorable and consistent.
Pot-War Factor
This question of a stable tax
policy is of special Importance
to the enterpriser who wants to
atart a new business of his own.
And, In view of the expectation
that perhaps as many as two
million ex-service men and war
workers will try to set up their
own businesses In the early post
war period, a lavoraDio ami
stable tax plan becomes a vital
oost-war factor.
Investment, In even the safest
of established businesses, Is
lone-term rjroposltlon, and one
which calls for confidence In a
favorable future climate for busi
ness. At present an investor may
have to recover as much as a
20 per cent return from a stock
risk In order to have the same
net Income as a 2 per cent tax
exempt bond. Obviously, very
little business expansion can be
expected unless this situation is
modified and confidence is estab
lished that the change will en
dure. Moreover, to protect our
monetary and fiscal programs
and at the same time carry our
huge war debt, we must make
certain that no caprices In tax
policies-are allowed to reflect on
the soundness of an American
war bond on an American dollar.
Debt To People
Directly or indirectly our na
tional debt Is owed to the Amer
ican people, and constitutes a
very large portion of the savings
on which they rely for security.
To assure future debt stability,
our post-war tax policy must be
so drawn that It will provide
surpluses to begin debt retire
ment at some agreed level of
high employment.
However, no tax program
which seeks as Its sole objective
the rising of revenue can ex
pect to assure a stable tax future
under our present levels of fed
eral debt and expenditure. Wo
must devise a tax program which
will also encourago both the ex
pansion and continued growth
of national productivity, em
ployment, and income which will
help to carry the weight of the
taxes themselves.

A letter from Rome ripserih-
Ing a sight-seeing trip through
uie Vatican and an audience
with the pope was received re
cently by Mrs. Tom Emmens
irom ner nusoand, Captain
Thomas Emmens, who is with
the medical corps in Italy. He
has been overseas 18 months
and Is the son of Mrs. J. J.
Emmens, 1443 East Main street.
Capt. Emmens de.vrihpri tho
audience which their Dartv
"shared with several hundred
other soldiers although nrt
many of them were as fortunnt
as we were In being so close to
the throne." After describing
the throne room he said "we
heard a rustle down at the
lower end of the room and the
procession was slowly approach
ing. Of course everyone was
standing and as he approached
being carried in a golden chair,
he gave his blessings to those
standing alongside. As they got
to the stairs leading up to his
throne his guards, chamberlains
and flunkeys all dressed In
beautiful robes and uniforms
were about as stately a sight as
I have ever seen.
"He Is small and very quick.
the quickness Is apparent In his
speech as well as in his move
ments. He spoke to those about
him and then gave his audience
In which he asked a blessing
on all our loved ones at home
he hoped peace might be at
tained quickly and maintained
forever. This was all given in
good English and followed by a
longer speech In French and
Italian. The voice fits the per
sonality and his gestures were
simple and natural. He asked
us where we were from and
then conversed for a few min
utes. All this time" I was trying
to get some snapshots of him,"
Emmens related.
With the aid of a priest for
a guide they were conducted
through the Church of St.
Peter which Capt. Emmens de
scribed in considerable detail
In his letter. Of particular In
terest were the fine paintings
of Michael Angelo In the Sis
tine chapel, among them being
"The Creation." The chapel
contains many art treasures
which escaped the fate of the
museum at Naples and the uni
versity also, he wrote.
They also were taken through
two chapels, the first, the
Chapel to Our Sorrowful Moth
er and the Chapel of the Blessed
Sacrament. Many murals and
pictures are exquisite mosaics,
he wrote, which must be viewed
up close to ten wiey are not
paintings. This churcn in tne
Vatican contains relics of con
siderable Import in the history
of the Catholic church.
Mrs. Emmens and two sons
are residing with her mother,
Mrs. Walter Inch, 602 Catherine
street, while her husband is
overseas.
