Why Taxes?
The United States 1 lumber of Commerce, after an
unsuccessful fight to secure e greater reduction in
federal taxes, is now directing its attention toward
other forms of taxation with the idea of securing a
general reduction in municipal, county and state taxes
throughout the United States.
The move would be e laudable ona if it were based
upon a more economical and efficient expenditure of
public funds rather Oian a general tax reduction. The
organisation will secure the active co-operation oi
millions of taxpayers, but these same taxpayers will
insist upon their respective cities, counties and states
expending approximately the same or a greater amount
year after year.
The charge that the eleven billions of dollars the
American people pay annually in taxes are a heavy
burden upon industry and national development are
not borne out by the facts. The major part of this
tax money is going into public works—new highways,
paved streets, schools, buildings, sewer and water
systems—all of which are very important factors in
every phase of national development.
It ia true that part of the enormous tax funds ar*1
not wisely expended, but the progress of the nation
the past ten years would indicate that dishonesty or
inefficiency in the handling of public funds are com
paratively rare. Efficiency has reached a high plane
in the handling of public funds and the American peo
ple are doubtless receiving as great value in such ex
penditures as In their personal expenditures. Of
course, there are the exceptions to the rule. There are
numerous localities overtaxed; others in which high
taxes are paid with little or nothing to show for them,
but generally speaking, the taxes paid by the nation
are invested in greater comfort, more conveniences and
greater prosperity for the people.
Taxes are essential to national and individual prog
ress and prosperity. They are. in fact, the basis of
our civilization. Government is merely co-operation,
and taxes provide the finances for collective advance
ment. The individual can do very little toward im
proving conditions in a municipality, county, state or
nation, but by working collectively progress and de
velopment can be intensified.
We cannot expect to build highways, pave streets,
provide water and sewer system, wonderful systems of
national, state and municipal parks, huge public build
ings, the finest school system In the world and the
myriad «f other essentials to modern civilization with
out paying the hill therefor. These ere the basis of
American prosperity; they are the monuments to that
spirit of progre* which has amazed the world and
given America the premier position among nations. A
progressive people, a progressive government and na
tion-wide co-operation in promoting rational progress
ia the real power that is turning the wrheels of Ameri
can industry, and in the final analysis it is the taxes
the American people pay that have created this condi
tion. The United States ha« become the greatst co
oprative nation in the world, and to maintain this co
operation for the benefit of the entire nation enor
mous funds are required, practically all of which,
however, are being invested in the development of
future wealth and greater national prosperity.
Federal Employes Get Increase
A total of 135,000 federal employes will receive be
tween $19,000,000 and $19,000,000 in increased salaries,
beginning with the new fiscal year. July 1.
The house by a vote of 2H to 14 gave its approval |
to the Smoot-Welch bill providing for the added com- ]
pensation, and the senate is prepared to do likewise
without delay. The act, a compromise on the ques
tion of increased salaries, was accepted by congres
aional leaders and the president before being intro
duced into the house. The II who voted against the
bill in the house explained that they did so only be
cause they viewed the contemplated increases a* not
sufficiently liberal.
The legislation is in response to urgent demands (
that government employes, particularly those in ‘he
lower grades, have their salaries adjusted to present
day wage scales. Government workers, through their
leaders. pointed out that there has not be an adjust
ment of federal salaries for many years and that th
governmental wage standards had fallen far below
both economic needs and private industry schedules
Practically every government employe, especially j
those in the lower grade*, from whose ranks came the
most insistent plea for additional compensation, will
receive a substantial increase with the exception of .
the postal service, the foreign service and certain
skilled grades in the navy yard, government printing
office and bureau of engraving and printing whose
pay is now regulated by wage boards. The measure
specifically provides against reduction in salary for
any government worker.
One of the features of the bill is that it provides
for new grades in the professional and administrative
services, paying salaries in excess of $9,000 a year, to
take care of the situation frequently reported to con*
gress in which the government is constantly losing the
services of most efficient, specially trained men, such
as experts in the bureau of standards. The president
and the bureau of the budget and the bureau of effi
ciency have been particularly insistent that these
grades should he included in the bill, and it is believed
their establishment will really mean a eonsiderable
economy to the government.

THE WOMEN OF CANADA ARE NOT PERSONS
(Pallas News).
The highest court of Canada has decreed that, with
in the Dominion under the fundamental law, women
are not persons. That links up 192S A- D with 19?R
g Q' After nil. eras do not end as chasms, with knif«
clean edges- They fade into each other and out of eacn
other. In the long ago, when a woman could be bount
hand and foot and sold at a public auction, she wa«
not a person, of course She was a chattel. Perhaps
»fa« waa better than a horse or a sheep. For a man
l
can not help a certain auseeptibility to a comely lass,
even though he be not much removed from savagery
and she be panting and helpless in the dust with the
thongs biting into her wrists snd ankles. But chattel
she was. for all of that.
It is a curious thing, if we thinl| on It, that the
word which expresses our noblest connotation of man's
deference for woman should be chivalry. For under
I chivalry a woman was atill a chattel. It is true that
she was, in the poetry of the time, betimes a crown
and betimes a grail. But the chaplet of a King and
! the cup of a saint are. after all, chattels, too.
The helplessness of dame and maid was the ehar
| ter of knighthood. The deeds of Sir Bold waxed most
glorious in the presence of the extreme disabilities of
' his Lady Fair. Apart from him she was at the mercy
of fate, and apart from her very necessity he was
without reason or excuse. And to this day we retain
the courtesies and courtliness of that time. Old cus
toms are crumbling and old graces are fading. But it
is still manliness to shield and defend, even as it is
still womanliness to accept protection and glorify it.
In a little ,while the women of Canada will achieve
personableness, if we may call it so. and some will be
the freer for it. A few- will profit by it and most will
find satisfaction in the justness of it. But for the
greater part of womankind happiness lies not in law,
but in love, and ever must. It was so of the maid in
the dust relieved of her thongs and carried away to n
home not of her choosing. It is so of the mother of
today bound down by a thousand ties that make fast
her heartstrings. Nor is woman wholly happy who is
wholly free. Else the human race would long since
have lacked for mothers.

IN NEW YORK
Is there romance in the daily life of ths big city?
Well, listen to this true story that f heard yesterday.
A woman who is in business in the mid-town sec
tion told me the story. She is, I should say, 40 years
old, and not beautiful. She is crippled, due to an ac
cident, and walks with a limp.
Fourteen years ago, when she was unmarried, this
woman got into a telephone mixup while trying to g?t
a number. An unidentified man was also trying lo
get a number in another part of the city, and three
times, through some perversity of fate and operators,
the two were connected.
The man then suggested, in a well-modulated and
} pleasing tone, that perhaps after all he should talk to
i this girl, since fate would have it so. A light and ban
tering conversation ensued.
Fourteen years ago. And that man has" called that
| woman on the telephone at irregular intervals ever
since.
e e e e
They have never seen one another. They have
never asked questions about the private affairs or
personal appearance of one another. He doesn’t want
to see her, and she doesn’t want to see him.
She has married meantime, and has half-grown
children. Her husband ’ nows about the strange ro
mance of the telephone, and thinks it amusing.
Sometimes the man of mystery calls twice or three
times in a month. Sometimes he does not call for
three or four months at a time. The conversation*
have ceased to bp playful. The man has idealized th«*
woman. He tells her how beautiful she is in his im
agination. and what a wonderful character she pos
sesses. He lias created her his ideal woman, and he
writes poetry to her. which he recites sometimes. It is
good poetry.
• • • •
The man uses the language of an educated and cul
tivated gentleman. The woman is not educated, but
her voice is soft and agreeabls, and she talks interest
ingly. Both of the telephone romancers are able thus
to escape from the realities of life, and romance is
the only real thing to them for hours after one of
these conversations. She is sad because she is so far
from his conception of her, hut she is glad to be the
inspiration of this man's life, as he says she ♦*.
You will have your own opinion of this sort of ro
mance. I think it is a beautiful flower in s hard-boiled
business world.

RIGHTS. NOT CHARITY ASKED FOR PORTO RICO
By FELIX CORDOVA DAVILA
Resident Commissioner of Porto Rico.
(Feiix Cordova Davila of Manati, Porto Rico, is
resident commissioner for Porto Rico in Washing
ton, D. C., and the islands* representative in con
gress. While he has no vote in the house of rep
resentatives, he has a voice on the floor. His
term of office is four year*. The office is elective).
It is folly to attempt to make the Porto Ricans
happy in the American way. We want to effect the
happiness of our people hy treading the path of our
destiny in our own way. I know of no country in the
world which ha* secured the happiness of another by
handling its internal affairs.
We do not deny that we have received benefits from
American administration. Rut our conditions are be
ing dealt with from Washington from the standpoint
of American charity and n«t from the viewpoint of
Porto Rican rights. We are asking not charity, hut
rights.
While conditions in Porto Rico at the time of the
American occupation were not particularly favorable,
natural under the circumstances, there existed then,
and has developed since, the basis of a civilization ju«t
as wise and just as vigorous as the Anglo-Saxon civil
ization. We had a nucleus of European university
trained men whose depth and breadth of learning were
comparable to those of the educated class in the Unit
ed States and Europe. Our representative* at the Span
ish courts offer irrefutable examples of Porto Rican
culture. Our men were first to plead for abolition of
slavery.
Every country 'egrets the presence of ignorant,
sickly, poor, or vicious people among its population,
and it is as unfair to regard them as typical of the
whole people as to consider poverty or other condition*
in Porto Rico as at all illustrative of the Porto Rican
people. In the Bowery of New York, in Hoboken, New
ark. Albany, Chicago and other American cities you
find similar types, but it would be unfair to consider
them as typical of the American people, just as it is
unfair to regard such elements a* typical of our people
in Porto Rico.
The people of Porto Rico have no voice in the elec
tion of the president of the l nited States, or in the
appointment of the governor of Porto Rico. Notwith
standing this fundamental right under American in
stitutions. the president has stated that we enjoy a
greater degree of sovereignty than a state. The ma
jority of our people can only communicate with the
executive of the Washington government through the
.igenrj of a third person, the governor, speaking a
language not understood hy masses of our people, who
surrounds himself with a group of individuals often
responsible for the misunderstandings that take place
between the governor and the people 0f Porto Rico.

Greenland Air Route Is Possible
In Summer, Meteorologists Think
.. ...'
Meteorologists say a nair route to Europe over Greenland and Iceland
has possibilities, particularly in summer. It might follow the trail U.
S. army world fliers blazed in 1924, shown in heavy line on map. Up
per line traces projected flight to Europe of Bert Hassell, and lower
line Lindbergh’s Paris path in 1927. Maj. Thomas G. Lanphier fleftl
is mentioned with Lindbergh in unconfirmed reports of contemplated
flight over Greenland course.
NEW YORK.—</P)—In the light of
what man now knows about flying
conditions in the extreme north At
lantic, an airway between Europe and
North America across Greeitland and
Iceland, the feasibility of which Col.
C harles A. Lindbergh is considering,
offers a possible summer route be
tween the continents but perhaps not
a year-around trail.
Dr. James H. Kimball, meteor
ologist of the New York weather
bureau and “unofficial starter" for
eastward transatlantic flights, thinks
the possibilities of such a route are
"well worth investigating.”
The naval hydrographic office at
Washington says it would regard
such a flight aa a “stunt.” since av
erage weather reports show routes
farther south are better for air pur
poses, but that weather should be
most favorable in July and August.
And Prof. W. H. Hobbs of the
1'niversity of Michigan, a first hand
investigator of weather and wind cur
rents in Greenland last winter, says
that flying should be possible over
the far-north route from early May
to late August, with the best condi
tions between July 1 and 15 and with
the additional advantage to airmen of
continuous daylight in summer.
Any route that might be projected
over Greenland and Iceland to
Europe probably would follow ap
proximately the path of the two Unit
rd States army planes which made
the first flight around the world.
The army fliers, in August. 1924,
under command of Lieut. Lowell
Smith, flew from England to the
Orkney islands, thence to Iceland and
on to Greenland, coming to North
America at the coast of Labrador.
The third plane in the gfoup, the Bos
ton. was forced down between the
Orkneys ard Iceland and could not
continue. All three planes were fit
ted with pontoons.
Ths locgsst ov*r-w*tar jump wtt
between Greenland end Iceland, about
800 mile*. The distances between
Greenland and Labrador and between
Iceland and the Orkneys were each
ahnut 5f»0 miles—less than half the
1.2O0-mile width of water between
New Foundland and Ireland on the
“great circle" route which Lindbergh
followed to Paris.
Lindbergh says he has formulated
no plans for attempting the Green
land-Iceland route by plane himself,
hut airmen believe he is planning a
flight somewhere, and he is studying
navigation at Washington under
Lieut. Comm. F. V. H. Weems of the
navy. Conjecture has linked with
I Lindbergh's name in a possible flight
that of Maj. Thomas G. Lanphier.
Selfridge Field, Mich.
Professor Hobbs, probably the
loremost authority on weather con
ditions in Greenland, says the
most difficult part of a flight from
North America to Europe across
Greenland and Iceland would be en
countered after crossing the west
coast of Greenland into that Arctic
continent.
“Near Mt. Evans station, whera he
and his party spent months in
meteorological research, a plane must
mount 9,900 feet. Professor Hobbs
says, and go through a region which
is moist as well as cold.
"I think it would be impossible
for a plane to pass here.” he tells
The Associated Press, “without ice
forming on the fuselage and wings,
unless some preparation ia found to
prevent this formation.
“I am not a flying man. hut I think
it is possible to find places on the
west coast of Greenland that would
make good landing fields.”
Dr. Kimball holds that “especially
in the apringtime tha Atlantic air
passage by way of Greenland and
Iceland would seem to be an excel
lent route.
"At that tima. while tha tea to

breaking up, there is very little
moisture and therefore little fog.
Later in the summer when the sun
is hot there is much more fog, but
because of tha short hops this should
not be prohibitive.”

WASHINGTON. May 15—Congress
man Cordell Hull, of Tennessee, be
came a sure-enough democratic presi
dential candidate overnight.
He’s been a possibility all along—
the kind, however, that can’t possibly
be nominated. He was due from the
first to get Tennessee’s vote at Hous
ton—and perhaps a few more votes.
This was enough to make him a per
functory possibility—entitled to his
proper alphabetical place on every
dopester’s list, to recognition as one
of those whom the vice presidential
lightning might actually strike—and
that was about all.
It was as such a possibility that
Congressman Hull went to bed on the
night of the California primaries—
before their result was known.
In the morning he got up a genu
ine candidate.
• • •
In order not to fool anybody—
‘ The Tennessee representative
stands no more chance today of be
ing nominated for president on the
democratic ticket at Houston than
he did before.
But his candidacy MEANS some
thing now—or may—a whole lot.
Those California primaries wrought
the change.
• • •
As we’re ware, there's a democrat
ic element opposed to Al Smith.
This element was hoping the Cali
fornia democrats would throw a bad
crimp into Al, as a wet.
They were offered three picks—Al.
Jiin Reed and Tom Walsh.
The anti-Smith-ites doubtless
would have preferred to see even
Jim win. rather than Al, but Jim’s
wet himself.
It really was Tom the anti-Smith
ites were pulling for.
If Tom had won. all the anti-Smith
forces would have lined up under his
banner too quick.
He not only didn't win—he got
such"* licking that he retired from
the field.
• • •
Now just because you may happen
to be pro-Smith, and perhaps a wet.
don’t get the idea that Cordell Hull's
isn't an attractive personality.
You like him on sight.
He's a tallish, fine looking chap
of 57—a public man's prime. Dis
tinction and dignity mark him, from
the snow-white crown of his head on
down. His face is singularly amiable.
It's strong. It suggests that he can
fight—but fairly, never viciously or
vindictively. I’m sure you’d say.
In manner he's the south at its
best—kindly, considerate, calni, un
hurried.
His voice has a hint of the soft
southern drawl.
Hull’s a lawyer. He was a Span
ish war captain. He served in the
Tennessee legislature, on the bench
and is in the midst of his tenth con
gressional term. From 1921 to 1924
he was chairman of the democratic
national committee. He’s not only
able. but thoroughly experienced and
broad guage.
• • •
A whole lot of men come to Wash
ington wearing the labels of parties
whose principles they don't know the
first thing about. They’re republi
cans or democrats accidentally. Ask
’em to define what they stand for. as
partisans, and they can no more do
it than they can explain the Einstein
theory of relativity.
Cordell Hull comprehends fully
what it’s all about—which party’s
which—and—why—and which side
he’s on—and the wherefore for that,
too.
see
According to Cordell Hull, the re
publicans handed the democrats an
opportunity to win in 1924—offered
it to ’em on a silver platter. The
democrats got into that row at Mad
ison Square Garden and spilled it all
over the place, platter and all.
This year, says Hull, the same
tender's made over again—only this
time the platter’s gold.
And what’ll happen at Houston?—
1 asked the Tennesseean—because,in
the peculiar circumstances, as set
forth above, I calculated that hardly
anybody else in the country is ai
well fixed as he is to make a good
guess.

a few games of cards, and then to

He didn’t want to discuss eandi

the democrats will forget “non-es

form of real principles, he thinks
the platform automatically will more
or less suggest its own candidate.
What “non-essentials”—or “non

much depends on that!
• • •
To put it briefly and baldly—
If the Smith-ites haven’t quite
enough votes to nominate Al first off
at Houston, some of the “antia” seem
disposed to repeat their Madison
Square Garden tactics, and Cordell
Hull appears to he their best bet for
William G. McAdoo’a role.
The most they can do will be to
force the choice of a compromise
candidate, like John W. Davis, in
1924. Then can’t nominate Hull
can only use him to “stop" Al—may
be.
• • •
But—supposing it happens—will
Hull allow the fight to go to tho last
ditch?—as McAdoo did four years
ago.
I have my doubts.
Hull’s a very different type from
Bill.
He’s no rule-or-ruiner. He isn’t
unduly selfish. His ego’s only nor
mal.
And he’s pre-eminently a loyal
“party man.” There are democrats
who'd rather see the national democ
racy go smash than compromise.
Not so. in my judgment, Cordell
Hull. He's nationally-minded—an
ex-national chairman—accustomed to
the give-and-take of politics on a
large scale.
He’ll get all he ean. I don’t be
lieve he’ll cut off his own and Al
Smith's joint democratic nose to
spite Al’s face.
