CHIEF FEATURES OF SECRETARY MELLON'S TAX PROPOSALS AND WHAT THEY MEAN TO EVERY TAXPAYER. For 100 Years Or More The Democratic Party, Without Any Blare Of Trumpets, Has Scrupulously Preached And Practiced Twin Policy Of Economy And Equitable Taxation. Democratic party in Congress will adhere to this traditional party pol-| icy in discussing and voting upon the so-called Mellon plan in order that equitable tax reduction may be had. Officials of the Republican administration, including Secretary Mellon and leaders of his party in Congress, are provoking resentment among wage-workers, farmers, and every class of consumers by their persistent exclusion of the tariff from their discussions of taxation. They are being charged with a deliberate attempt to forestall a reduction of the Republican tax of $200,000,000 a year on sugar, and the exorbitant duties on other necessaries. In his annual report Secretary Mellon says: "High taxation, even if levied upon an economic basis, affects the prosperity of the country, because in its ultimate analysis the burden of all taxes rests only in part upon the individuals of property taxed. It is borne by the ultimate consumer. High taxation means a high price level and high cost of living. It can safely be said that the reduction in the income tax reduces expenses not only of the 7,000,000 income taxpayers but of the entire 110,000,000 people of the United States." The income tax is the one tax which, as a rule, cannot be passed on to the consumer. The tariff, on the other hand, is paid in full and more by the consumer by reason of pyramiding and profiteering. The aggregate of all the income and profits taxes collected for 1921, as shown in the latest report, was $1,420,962,538. This sum was paid directly by some 7,000,000 individuals and corporations. Tariff taxes total $4,000,000,000 annually—$2,-500,000,000 more han the aggregate of income and profits taxes collected for 1921. Income and profits taxes average $13 per capita. The tariff costs every man, woman, and child of the 110,000,000 inhabitants of the United States $36 each. Secretary Mellon is heavily interested in the Aluminum Company of America, among scores of other big corporations. This concern, known Sincere Service When Death Visits Your Home Let Us Relieve You Of All The Details of The Funeral. JOHN TO SONS MD. as the Aluminnm Trust, was prosecuted by the Government for violating the Federal laws prohibiting restraints of trade and other similar practices and is even now being attacked in the Federal Courts on practically the same charges. In the face of these alleged breaches of the laws the Republican Congress gave Mr. Mellon's trust "protection" ranging from 22 to 71 per cent.— and averaging 45 per cent.—on its products. On July 31, 1922, Mr. Mellon's trust had accumulated a surplus of $92,153,861, and according to jtts president had earned during the ten years ended December 31, 1920, an average of $10,000,000 annually. This was after deductions for interest, taxes, depletion, depreciation, etc. Every user of aluminum in the form of wire, parts of automobiles, kitchen ware, etc., pays the present tariff on this monopoly's products and helps thereby to swell its earnings and surplus. There is a Republican tariff of 11 cents a pound plus 55 per cent, ad valorem—equivalent to 71.2 per cent, on every pot and pan and utensil of aluminum sold to the housewives of the United States. There are many combines and monopolies which, like the Aluminum Trust, are being enriched by this Republican tariff. Like Secretary Mellon and the authors and beneficiaries of the Fordney-McCum-ber law they doubtless would like to limit the meaning of the phrase "tax reduction" and make it apply only to surtaxes. In that way, apparently, they hope they can keep the vast wealth they derive from the tariff and at the same time get the advantage of a decrease in their income and profits taxes; in short, win both ways. INQUIRY COLUMN. Conducted By "Old Josh," Who Will Be Glad To Answer Questions. Uncle Josh: How long does it take to learn the carpenter's trade, so as to get journeyman's wages? Answer.—I will have to divide that question, if you want to know how long it takes to learn all a carpenter should know, in order to do any work on a building, I would say not less than three years. If you want to know how long it will take you to learn the use of a saw and hatchet, and then make a bluff of being a mechanic and getting journeyman's wages, I would say from three weeks up. During the war the Government paid time, over time, and double time at the highest wages ever known to "carpenters" by the thousand, who never worked at the trade as long as three weeks. ^TUUllJlIltC^ilIlll]IlllJC^l£intiIllIJC3IIIIIIlllJt]C0IlttlIllllfIC^lllIiIlIl]tIC3IIllIIlIIlIlC2IltllIl}IIIIC»ItI[llllHfC3UllliIIIIIIC3fllllIlIIIttC31ftllllUtllC3t»2r!

Answer.—It is a very old custom —originally they acted as personal attendants x>n the bride; the senior bridesmaid, or maid of honor, as she is called today, was with the bride constantly for several days before the wedding. Her duties were numerous and varied. Among them taking charge of all preparations for the wedding, decorating the rooms and the table, making the (^M bridal wreath and dressing the bride. /:%\ Uncle Josh: Will there be any difference in the cost of automobile licenses this year? Answer. — Yes, due to the tax on gasoline there will be a very decided decrease; the rate last year was 60 cents per horse power, this year it is 32 cents. If you have a 21 horse power engine, the license last year cost you $12.60, this year it will be $6.72. Don't you wish some other kind of taxes would drop to the same extent? ffBBBBBBBBBflBBBBBBBBflBflBBBflBBBflBBBBBBBBBI Uncle Josh; Is the Community Christmas Tree in the "Jeff's" yard planted to take root ther, or just for use this year? Answer.—It is there to stay; if good treatment counts for anything, an'1 will always be a "Jeff" Com-m ^nity Tree. Uncle Josh: "Will you please tell me the difference between a contagious and an infectious disease, So many persons seem to think they mean the same thing. Answer.—I suppose a majority of folks have an idea that they mean the same, but they do not; a contagious disease is one which can only be contracted by coming in direct contact with one suffering from the disease. An infectious disease is one which may be communicated by infection passed from one to another by germs or that may be carried in the air or water. Uncle Josh: Will you tell me the number of killed and wounded in the battles of Waterloo and Gettysburg. I have heard the casualties were about the same? Answer.—The killed and wounded at Waterloo numbered 57,000; at Gettysburg 54,807. NEtJHAUSERS MOVE TO CUB HILL.
