Wnlle considerable complaint is
being registered against th so-callod

lectlng tho Incomo tax,. It is to be

such has practically disappeared. In
other words, efforts will doubtless bo

and particularly of holding out tho
tax at tho source where it la calcu
lated to produce confusion and com
plication, but no movement is an
ticipated against tho lovylng of a tax
on incomes.
Tho presont condition Isvln bold
contrast with what occurred after
each previous effort by tho federal
govornrhont to tax incomes. Tho
war tax was regarded as but a tem
porary expedient, tho question bolnc
simply one of speedy repeal. Tho
Income tax imposed under the Cleve
land administration was fought all
the way up to tho United Slates su
preme court, which doclared It un
constitutional. -'Although tho nrea-
crit income tax Is levied by .exercise
of th0 powers conferred by the con-
tltutlonai amendment, designed and
adopted to romovo tho obstacles
formerly preventing, no one doubts
that a determined opposition could
at least find pretext to start litiga
tion. That no such attempts to fore
stall tho tax havo boon encountered
is the best proof that the people with
large incomes, upon whom the. chief
burden falls, are convinced that
further opposition would be of no
avail,
This situation Is a significant re
flection of tho changed attitude to
ward the old problem of taxation.

make a similar mistake in falling to
adopt tho Brandeis theory of trUBt
reform, which ho Is about to exnloit
in Frlond Hapgood'B weekly? Tho
president showed some lack of appre
ciation of Mr. Brandeis' services
when ho neglected to call him to his
cabinet. Now, Just bofore he takes
up the task of trust regulation ho Is
to havo this latter opportunity of re
trieving his Judgment-
Friend Hapgood says the unreeon-
erate stand-pat mind naturally re
coils from Friend Brandeis aud any
thing he may suggest. So, Jook out,
Mr, President, how you trlflo with
your opportunities. Thcsa articles'
of ilri Brandeis will deal with the
various aspect of the Money trust
and proposod specific remedies. They
may not comprehend tho president's
entire, program, but will undoubtedly
be sufficient to sot the pace for him.
It will 'bo intorosting, therefore, to
obsorve how closely he follows the

Trade on the High Seas.
The Southern Commercial congress
at its recont session In Mobile, at

of his cabinet members, as well as
members of congress, registered u
strong appeal for a rojuvenatod
Amorlcan ocean trado. It prophesied
great things to como through tho op
eration of tho Panama , canal, It
exhibited a largo appreciation of tho
importance and possibilities of an ad
equate fleet of commerce. All along
tho Pacific slopo tho cry is heard for
Amorlcan'shlpa on the Pacific Prepa
rations are being made' for the canal's
Impetus to trade. Throughout thu
country meu recognize both tho need
and opportunity for ah American
merchant marine. The subject, we
are told, is one that President Wilson
"has very much at heart." Last
year coHgress provided lor the free
ship policy la the passage of the Pan
ama canal act. Yet to date it has
given Us not a single new ship.
This Is pathetic in a great nation
that has Just invested as first cost
9376,000.000 in an interoceanic ca
nal, whose commercial destiny points
unerringly to more extensive partici
pation In tho commerce of the seas.
Why continue the do-nothing policy?
Why not step out with some- definite,
tangible plan for rehabilitating our
merchant marine? Thus far we have
not even decided on a plan. Direct
ship subsidy is opposed and the pres
ent senate has rojocted tha house
proposal of a 5 per cent discrimina
tory duty for traffic in American bot
toms. In neither case, though, havo
the obstructionists proposed a feasi
ble substitute. As. a nation we are
simply throwing away time, trade
and opportunity.

with perfect calm. '
"It has been In eruption quite some

voice. "What do you think ot it?"
"Oh, I don't know," was the Indlf
fereht rejoinder of the American. "It
Isn't so much."
"It Jih't so much!" exclaimed the
Italian, with a took of amazement. "Do
you really mean to say that?"
"Why, yes," was the smiling reply of
the American, "We have got a waterfall

The Andttorlnm si Politic Benefit,
OMAHA, Nov. It To the Editor or The
Bee: I wish to say a few words In an
swer to the communication against the
purohase of the Auditorium.
The writer said that the man who had
put a , dollar into the Auditorium ten years
ago had never got anything out of It or
words to that eft tct Let m say that It
the man who put a dollar Into the Audi
torium hod stepped into the big building
any time during a whole month after
the terrible tornado disaster ot lost Eas
ter Sunday and had seen the wonderful
service rendered to the city ot Omaha
by the Auditorium without any cost
whatever, he certainly would have felt
that the dollar he Invested in the build
ing had been well spent If the man who
put a dollar Into I the Auditorium had
been with me last Friday evening at the
splendid concert given to over 4.000 teach.
ers from all over the state ot Nebraska
by the Omaha Commfcrclol club in the
much abused Auditorium, he certainly
would have felt that he had gotten more
than the worth of his money. The Audi
torlum has repaid. In the general good It
has done to the city, tho man who put a
dollar Into it, no matter whether he has
ever received a free ticket or not
The writer or that letter seems to have
a very poor opinion ot the citizenship or
Omaha. He says that when anybody In
Omaha tells you he la going to give you
something or sell you something at less
than cost you want to look out tor him.
I would like to ask the writer who has
built the many beautiful churches In
Omaha? Who bultt tho hospitals, the
Crelghton university, the Young Men's
Christian association building, the Young
Women's Christian association bulldlngt
Who donated some or our Most beautiful
parks? Who donated some or our great
collections or books, rare coins and works
or art? Who donated rare plants and
flowers worth thousands or dollars? Who
supports the Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben, the
Commercial club and othor great organ
izations that help to make our city what
It la? Why, the public-spirited citizens
of Omaha, practically the same men who
havo supported the Auditorium in order
that the city might have a great hall
where we could hold big public meetings,
expositions, concerts, etc. t
In closing I wish to .tay that every cit
izen of Omnha should read the article In
last Friday's Bee furnished by Mr. Gil
tan, manager of' the Auditorium. I am
convinced that no fair-minded man can
read that article without feeling that the
Auditorium and Its management have
been unfairly treated, and that the only
sensible and practical thing to do Is ror
the city or Omaha to buy It, complete it
and make it what was intended to be
an Instrument or utility and great good
to the city or Omaha. T. F. QU1NLAN.
