DEATH TAXES
Within the past few years it is
probable that no detail of the fed
eral taxation plan has come in for
more excoriation and adverse com
ment than the so-called "inheritance
tax," which undertakes to gather
from the estates of those who die pos
sessed of considerable property, a
large slice for governmental pur
poses. Much lias been said more or
less recently regarding the heavy
"penalty" inflicted upon the heirs of
Henry P. Prick, and added to the
heavy demands of the federal gov
ernment it seems almost as thoueh a
number of eastern states were about
to engage in a battle royal to divide
the remainder. Many states have
added income and inheritance taxes
to their regular levies and assess-
ments. and this has been the cause
of interests in more than one state.
Now it is learned that one

The world cannot point a finger

he has not done a full share toward
his fellowmen. The priceless works

JAYWALKERS AND WALKERS
The warning at raroad crossings!
in country districts to "Stop. Look i
and Listen," have been very effective
because it tells drivers to do what i
they can do as well as what they
ought to do, and in consequence are
unusually produent enough to do.
An application of the same principle
has been undertaken by the New
York city authorities in a renewed
campaign against jayv.r.H:ers, who
are to receive cards from ofHcers dur
ing traffic jams warning them in
their own interests to "cross only at
crossings" and to wait for signais. i
But these cards, it is said, in addi-;
tion to "cross the street carefully,"
merely enjoin: "Always look left
look right." Supposing that pedes
trians stop to take and read the
card, will it not tell them less than
most of them know already?
They need to look not only to the
right and left but before and behind.
Their case is similar to that of the
famed six hundred with cannon to
the right of them, to the left of them
and in front of them, with the "jaws
of death" and the "mouth of hell"
yawning to receive them. Even
when the traffic policeman raijes his
hand to stop the tide of travel run
ning north and south the street is
theirs only theoretically, for. as the
New York Times points out, "round
the corner from the cross street pour
the taxis and the autos and the
trucks in an erratic stream and at
various speeds." The walkers as
well as the jaywalkers are then put
in peril. The new plan will not solve
the problem, but it might help if
drivers also are warned told to keep
back of the crossing line when stop
ped and to start slowly after signal
with arrest to follow failure to obey.

BACK TO CONVENTIONS
A movement has been launched by
some of the leaders of the democrat
ic party in Missouri for restoration
of the convention system of nominat
ing party candidates in lieu of the
preferential primary plan.
It is gratifying to see courage of
this sort manifested. The Missouri
democrats may not be successful in
their efforts, but they are on the
right track.
The old convention system may
have had its evils, but they were not
comparable with the iniquities and
disadvantages of the primary plan as
now practiced. Takf the caliber of

The mechanical improvements in

They represent the work of Buick
research and engineering staffs con
stantly striving for betterments.
The new prices likewise represent
achievements of the engineering,
production and business depart
ments of the Buick organization, and
are in no small measure due to the
phenomenal approval of Buicks by
the public. This latter factor has
resulted in continuously increasing
sales with the attendant possibili

production.
The complete line includes 16 mod

in the Master Six class. In all cases
the distinctive Buick linf-s have

such as the rounding of radiator
