it’s harder to get Congress to h •d
down appropriations than it is to
persuade it to pass k tax bill.
Roosevelt has warned of higher
taxes frequently, as an alterna-

been rather definite. with asser-

‘ he can thoroughly understand Mr. Roosevelt’s re-

Back in 1928, Mr. Insull felt that his income tax
wes too high. He hired lawyers to fight for a refund,
rapid lawyers fought and the Government, at long
Elast, refunded, handing back the sum of $21,016.
R But Mr. Insull does not benefit by it. The money

To the baffled candidate, to say nothing of the
’coon dog owners of Kentucky, one must extend sym-
pathy. But it is impossible to avoid a little dreamy
speculation about the revolution that would bo work-
. ed in American politics if this. Circuit Judge’s ruling
should be applied to all candidates for office, high
I and low.
Promising everybody everything is the oldest
. standby of our campaigns. Everyone does it. The
| Kentuckian, limiting himself to one direct appeal to
the ’coon dog vote, seems to have been pretty mod-
l erate. If a candidate can’t offer special privileges to
different groups of voters, how is any American ever
to run for anything?
Take the Congressman, for example. He has to
promise things: a new postoffice, or an appropria-
1 tion for dredging, straightening and beautifying Mud
k Creek, or an extra share of the relief allowance for
5 his district. Such promises are his stock in trade.
? How could he live without them?
Or—to ascend to more rarefied air—consider
2 the Presidential candidate. Boiled down, his pJat-
R form usually amounts to just about this: elect me
5 and I will see that you are prosperous and happy,
E that the wolf stays far from your door, that foreign
E peace and domestic order reign, that your taxes will
- be reduced andyour businesses flourish. My oppon-
i ent is too unworthy and untrustworthy to give ou

A Loan for Italy 7
You may be amused to hear
that prior to Roosevelt’s Chicago
speech the Italian government was
secretly trying to pave the way
for a large loan from the United
States. But the report' eens to

Anyone who has checked the
Italian record both as to war
debts and private loans would
naturally assume that such hopes
were incredible unless they also
recalled the eagerness with which
Wall Street bankers have been
willing to unload such issues on
the American public.

one for Gallic guile; Annabella,
the French film star, was fussing
with the window blind in her
hotel here when the whole works
fell down. The collision raised an
unsightly lump on her pretty
blonde noggin. Did Anabella send
for the management and ask to
have the blind fixed?
Not at all She knew a news-
paper photographer was coming
to take her picture, that he would
need light and would try to raise
the shade. Sure enough, the un-
suspecting camera man arrived
and began setting up his kit. An-

commented on the lack of light
and reached for the shade.
Again the whole contraption
tumbled down, this time bruising

Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Oct 27.—
New and heavier- taxes will be
used to balance the federal
budget when and if.
This prediction is made private-
ly by most of the few persons
who, if they do not possess clair-
voyance, are at least in the best
position to size up the near fu-
ture and to be informed as to
what will be done about it
Npthing is sure, it appears, ex-
cept death and taxes which will
cut into incomes of from $6000
to $20,000 a year far more pain-
fully than they are being, tapped
at the present time. I I.
Incomes ranging down to
$2600 Are very likely to be af-
fected. And it’s practically cer-
tain. that when the, rates on"
these middle brackets are raised,
all incomes over $20,000 will
likewise be subjected to levies
higher than those existing.

Testing Agreements
International agreements, like most other hu-
Eman acts, re"t be judged-by the fruits; so the J
I world will have to wait a little while to learn whether
the most recent volunteer-withdrawal scheme is
| really going to give the Spanish civil war back to
the people of Spain.
The reason why no such agreement can be ac-
cepted at its face value until its actual fruits can be
I examined is, of course, the perfectly obvious fact that
f the foreign powers involved are not primarily in-
"terested in getting the volunteers out of Spain. They
K are chiefly concerned with seeing to it that one side
or the other gets some advantage out of the deal. It
is a safe bet that if they can work this new with-
drawal agreement to provide such an advantage they
’ will do it.
So we can only wait and see . . . while Spain
continues to suffer her long agony of a war which
half of Europe is helping to keep alive.

Clad for Troyanovsky
Sighs of relief are heard on
virtually every hand wth the re-
turn of Russian Ambassador
Alexander Antonovich Troyanov-
sky from his native land.
- Troyanovsky probably is this
capital’s most popular ambassa-
dor. When he was summoned
back to Moscow last summer a
heartfelt though subdued groan
arose from his numerous friends.
Most of those friends know of
one or more old Russian acquain-
tances whose fate was either none
too sure—or all too certain.
Nearly all of them feared the
worst and they feared that the
ambassador feared the same.
But it seems that Stalin only
wanted to confer with Troyanv-
sky—who once was his envoy at
Tokio—to discuss Far Eastern
policy. And it’s understood that
the ambassador now rates aco-
high in Moscow.
