STORE TAXES • • time to halt I don’t know ot any commun ity, county or state In which tax es have not gone up In the past two or three years. Certainly there Is none In which taxes are not materially higher than they were ten years ago. I’ve Just got my tax bills for 1934, and per haps I’m unduly concerned; but I can’t help coming back to che belief I have long cherished, that sooner or later we’ve got to abandon the tax on capital and find other and more equitable ways ot raising money with which to run our various govern ments. The real estate property tax Is a tax on capital. Nothing like it exists anywhere else In the world, so far as I am Informed. It was adopted in America In the pioneer days when there wasn’t anything else, much to tax ex cept land. I like the English sys tem better. There property Is taxed on the basis of what It earns—the income tax carried down to the income of everybody who owns a piece of property that is rented. Of course, there are other taxes, but they do not constitute a lien on real proper ty- property taxes can’t go much higher, in most parts of the na tion. without stirring up a revolt against the present system. INOOMES the average The average income in the United States is said, by Henry Wallace in his new book, to be about or under $1,500 a year. That includes everybody who works for a living—except farm ers. He figures that the average farm income has been cut down from about $1,300 a year to something like $500 a year. Of course, Mr. Wallace is talk ing about cash incomes. Out ot his $1,500 a year the industrial worker has to pay for food and lodging. It he has $500 a year left he is either a financial wiz ard or just plumb lucky. But the farmer, out of his $500 cash in come, has to pay taxes and, like as not, mortgage interest, to say nothing ot Insurance and other items he can't “work out,” so it's about as broad as it is long. The fallacy, it seems to me, lies in comitarlng the farmer with the wage-earner. The prop er comparison Is between the farmer and the business man. owner of his own busines.s. The farmer is a capitalist, and sub ject to the risks that all capital is subject to. That isn’t to say that he doesn’t have plenty of trouble, but at the worst he is not in such imminent danger of starvation as the unemployed industrial worker. .ST.VMPS for all taxes I don’t know how many kinds 01 Internal Revenue stamps there are. but it strikes me that the easiest and most painless way for any government to col lect taxes is by making it illegal to sell anything that doesn’t bear a Government stamp. I know that's merely another way ot saying “sales tax.” which is a phrase that always makes poli ticians see red. Nevertheless, some of our most important sources of revenue are from the sales taxes, already in force. There are revenue stamps on every bottle of liquor, every bar rel of beer, every pack ot playing cards, every pack of cigarettes or box ot cigars. Shares of stock cannot be legally transferred without sticking revenue stamps on them. Everyone is familiar with the sales tax on gasoline. The only reason why stamp or sales taxes are not imposed upon flour, potatoes, shoes, hats and canned goods, is the fear of the politicians in power that the ordinary man would thus be forced to realize that he is pay ing taxes, and would vote the politicians who imposed them out of office. There isn’t any other reason at all. RE.ILITIKS’ are few Most of ns live in a dream world, in which we think that there is some magic process, if only we could find it. which would make us happy and pros perous. When something un pleasant happens we are prone to attribute it to malicious fate, which can only be overcome by finding some new incantation which will work the right magic to set everything straight again. Pew people are courageous enough to face realities. The realities of life are terrifying to those who have been brought up to believe that "somebody” is al ways going to look out for them. They are not at all frightful to the tew who realize that noth ing in life is essential to happi ness except food and shelter. I try to be tolerant of every body else’s foibles and frailties, but I get disgusted with people who think they are being badly used merely because they can’t have everything they desire at the moment they desire it. DRINKING and a«ldents Vermont reports five times as many automobile accident., since the repeal of prohibition . as in animous in blaming this, on li quor.

Better wine Is made In the Unit ed States than In France.or Italy, but we are not a wlne-drlnklng people. The dream of sudden prosper ity through repeal has proved merely a dream. Hundreds of concerns that got liquor licenses in New York, thinking everybody was going to rush to the bars, have abandoned them rather than pay the high license fee. Many liquor dealers have gone broke. It took a hundred years of education to arouse public senti ment against the abuse of alco hol. Now the effort seems to be all in the other direction. Prohi bition was unworkable as a na tional program. It will take a couple of gen'rations to. bring us back to a sane, balanced und erstanding of the liquor ques tion.
