Magazine by A. A. Ballantine, former Undersecre-;
tary.of the Treasury.
The American working man must remember that onlv
a little over two-fifths of the money received by the govern
_ ment through taxation comes from income taxes. . The balance comes from the wide variety of miscellaneous and large
ly hidden taxes. The sad truth of the matter, however. is the
present taxes do not come anywhere near paying the bills th“New Deal is running up. ys
_ By the time the New Deal is through, the tax burden or
the American worker is going to be substantially higher thar
that on the British worker, despite the fact that we are being
told in dulcet tones these days that we are fortunate in not
having to pay British taxes. We all pay, indeed. Possibly we
don’t mind paying, but it is well to know that we are.—ConLabor Plays With Fire
Not from any “reactionary tory’’—as left-wing radicals
term most tax-payine. payroll-maintaining farmers and busi
nessmen—but from Norman Thomas, leader of the Socialist
Party, comes this statement:
“A great danger lies in the present attitude of labor
against which a reactionary wave is setting in. Labor is playing
with fire by its civil warfare.”
By dramatic coincidence, Socialist Thomas voiced his
warning in San Francisco, the seaport that has had more than
_ its share of labor wars, with costly port tieups, loss of ship_ ping, impairment of busines, and increase in unemployment
_ The condition ha caused state-wide concern, for a serious loss
on any major front must affect the entire state.
" Fortunately, with labor disputes somewhat at a minimum.
San Francisco is reporting better times. Waterfront tonnage
is up 20 per cent over a year ago, carloadings up 10 per cent.
