Tax Exempt Scvr..V ; Impose Heavy Burden
Topular opinion probably will eventually concentrate
in sufficient force to cause the elimination of the obvious
ly unfair practice by jrovernment of issuing tax-exempt
bonds. In effect it is nothing less than making the weak
shoulder the burden of the strong. Tax-exempt securi
ties impose a burden ir. more ways than one on all industries.
Radio and the Camper
The Great Outdoors Knows All These Days
I
A twist of the radio dial is all that stands between
the camper and a world of entertainment and informa
tion. With the air crowded with broadcast waves carry
ing music, news of the day, stock and market reports,
weather forecasts and other information, the radio re
ceiver, in even the remotest camp, will furnish no end of
service to those who have sought the great outdoors.
Sound Railroad System Essential
Earnings of Railroads Sound Business Barometer
There is no better barometer of business conditions
than earnings of railroads. Gross earnings indicate vol
ume of freight movement and travel. Net income shows
degree of prosperity of railroads themselves. It is highly
important that the carriers be prosperous in order to at
tract new money to create new facilities for moving in
creased traffic which results from increasing populations.
Volume of traffic has been and continues exceedingly
large, which indicateprosjjery inproictioij aiui mar
keting, while the prompt delivery which can now be re-'
lied upon is evidcrice of increased efficiency in operation.
The margin between profit and loss for railroads is
so slight that any unwise rate policy can easily cripple
the dividend-paying power of a railroad and thus prevent
it from securing capital for needed extensions and im
provements. The loss to shippers and travelers from such a policy
is much greater than would ever be occasioned by the
granting of adequate rates.
Every Tax Reduction Helps
None Escape Taxes Cuts Are Welcome
About 9,000,000 persons make income tax returns.
But 100,000,000 more Americans help make the money
the 9,000,000 pay- None escape the tax. The govern
ment spends $10,000,000 a day. The people have to earn
that money and pay it to the government. If federal
economy causes a saving of $1, 000, 000 a day, the money
saved will not be piled up to make a treasury surplus, but
left in the hands of the people. Unfortunately, to a large
extent, national government economies are offset by local
government extravagances or bad management. ,But the
fact that there is saving anywhere is cause for rejoicing.
A cut in the income tax at least will save money to help
pay local taxes until they also may be reduced.

Dinner Stories
A lawyer was defending a m:tn
.Accused houschreaukiK, aud-aid
-to the conrt:
"Your Honor, ! submit that my
client did not break into the house
at all. He found the parlor win
dow open and merely inserted his
right arm and removed a few
trifling articles. Now, my client's
arm is not himself, and 1 fail to
see how you can punish the whole
individual for an offense commit
ted by one of his limbs."
"That argument," said the judge.
"Is very well put. Following It
logically, I sentence the defend
ant's arm to one year's Imprison
ment. He can accompany it or not,
as he chooses."
The defendant smiled, nnd with
his lawyer's assistance unscrewed
bis cork arm, and leaving It in the
dock, walked out.

Three hundred thousand of the 400,000 dwellings
erected annually in our country are built of lumber, and
the proportion appears to be increasing. General adop
tion of certain lumber standards is giving assurance to
lumber consumers that they will get lumber of the best
utility for customary construction uses, well manufactured
and carefully graded.
In the past there were about 30 different sets of lum
ber grading specifications at least one for every import
ant species of commercial timber. Familiarity with one
set did not insure dependable knowledge of others, and
great confusion resulted. Now the buyer has only to
designate the species hit prefers for particular uses, know
ing that the same general grading Rize and rules apply
to all.
