Senator Byrd and the Tax Bill
The Cnited Slates Chamber of Commerce, whiih
-h made tip prtncii>ally of the representative of the
Health of this nation, advocates a system of handling
the business of the country which has [fovnt ton
much for the individual small business man; anil these
bi>: business enterprises have ruled our business prai
tices for so long that they are now unwilling to turn
loose. "?
They do not like any changes made in our meth
ods of taxation. The government cannot devise any
means of taxation that will suit them. They light
ever change projtosed, because if they are made to
pay taxis on an equal basis with pour folk, they claim
it is oppressive to them.
With the power of the wealthy organizations len
tralized. and all pulling together, the little man find
himself entirely outclassed, and there are always
some iungressiiien who are able to see things tin- wax
wealth sees them.
Take the tax bill passed at the recent session of
Congress. Senator iiyrd, of V irginia, cannot under
stand that the bill is fair to the wealthy, lie evi
rW-ntlv wfms to think that any tax bill is tair to UK
poor; hut when it comes to wealth, it is always easy
for him to see that the laws are very unfair. (>n the
other hand, Congressman I lough ton, of North Caro
lina. thinks the tax measure is fair to all concerned.
Setback for the Easy Divorce Law
Our easy, lax divorce law has suffered a great set
back by a recent su|>reme court decision. Those fel
lows who thought they could slap their children out
of the back door, kick their wives, knock the table
over and run off and get a divorce under the two-year
separation provision of the law?as well as the wo
-mrn -who thmtght ft lawful-to desert thetr-husbands
and children and run off witjt other men and get a
divorce under the two-year se|?aration law?find them
selves mistaken. Not only have they found them
selves mistaken but divorces obtained under such cir
cumstances are illegal, and those who have remarried
since are guilty of bigamy.
The supreme court declared the two-year provision
a|>plied only to cases where both parties assented and
agrmLiu voluntary separations.
The legislature has o|iened the doors of divorce
wide, and with thousands of_ unreliable |>eople mar
riage has become a farce. Most of our divorce laws
should be abolished. All marriages should be well
considered, and these toolish, hasty weanlings should
be avoided. Whenever they are entered into, then
the contracting parties should lie forced to stick to
their obligations.
Use Common Sense
How is l.andon going to discredit the works of the
Roosevelt administration, when even the New York
bankers ate saving that their business is exceedingly
good? How can they complain? They have nothing
to complain about, except that poor folks are having
a good time, too.
W hen you vote this year, use your common horse
sense. It will pay.
Where To Keep Your Eye
both the Democratic and Republican parties have
strong anti trust planks in their platforms?but the
s|M>t to keep your eye on is which party are the trust.
putling their money on? You will find them financ
ing the l.andon campaign. "l"hat is because they ex
|ieit more favors from the Republicans than they do
for tin- Democrats.
He very careful about your vote this year. Re
tnelnber, four years of good honest government is
much lielter than a century of false promises.
