STARTLING FIGURES According to an article in a magazine reaching the office if taxes increase in the next 17 years at the same rate they’ve increased since the war ended they will eat up just 50c of every dollar earned. In 46 years, this writer says, taxes w’oud absorb the entire net earnings of laborers, salaried men and most corporations. Taxes in 41 states in 1919 were 82 per cent higher than in 1912. In 1920 they increased 21 per cent over the preceding year, and in 1921 a 12 per cent increase was shown. In 1917 our taxes amounted to $5.97 per SIOO of income; in 1921 this amount had risen to $14.32 out of every SIOO. Reforms in taxation have got to come, or this country is going to meet the fate of other nations which, history tells us, fell into a decline when tax burdens heavier than the people could bear w’ere hung about their necks. It has happened. and it can happen again. Unless the American people demand tax reforms it may happen here.

HENRY FORD’S FORTUNE The filing of the annual statement of the Ford Motor Company last week is another revelation of the 20th century achievement. Mr. Ford and his only son own the whole of the capital stock of the company. Their net profits last year were $119,000,000. The cash holdings of the company deposited in various banks amounted on Feb. 28 to over $159,000,000. The two men together are believed lo be the richest men in the world, and are certainly in enjoyment of the largest individual income possessed by any capitalists of to-day. Amazing as it is that so colossal a fortune should have been accumulated in the space of twenty years, for twenty years ago Ford was a bookkeeper on a slender salary, it is, perhaps, even more astonishing that its accumulation should have been accompanied by so little public hostility. Even labor, organized labor, ordinarily so tenacious of its privileges, is virtually quiescent in contemplation of the Ford success. More than any one man or group of men, he has made Detroit a nonunion city, but in doing it he led the way in paying high wages, and making high wages pay him. But for all his refusal to recognize union labor in his shops, we find no outcry against his product raised by the spokesmen of union labor, and his cars are owned and driven generally by men who hold union cards. It cannot be said that Mr. Ford has purchased his immunity from hostile criticism by lavish deeds of charity. He is no philanthropist, nor has he sought to use ostentatious philanthropy as a bribe to public opinion. A great hospital in Detroit bears his name and it is perhaps the one monument to his public benefactions. What his private charities may be, no one knows. And yet it may well be questioned whether he has not contributed more to human welfare and happiness, and will not in future contribute more than any philanthropist, by his policy of extending the opportunities for employment and making the employment remunerative when the conditions of production make it impossible for him to let it be either pleasant or interesting. For this he is praised by .the working people and denounced by employees who hold other view’s. He is demonstrating to those who study social phenomena intelligently that the mere accumulation of money is not in itself a menace to society, or a crime against social organization. It is the method by which it is accumulated and the use to which it is put that provokes natural resentment, when either is hostile to the public welfare. Mr. Ford has had no special privileges granted to him by law in w’hich others might not share, upon which to build his enormous edifice of wealth. • -H> Over 8,000,000 women over 20 years of age have earned their owm living in France since before the war. Nearly one-half of this number are proprietresses of businesses. Their estimated earnings are fixed at about six billions of dollars in American money.

CROP REPORT FOR INDIANA Indianapolis, Ind., May 11.— The acreage of winter wheat remaining to be harvested in Indiana this year is slightly greater than last year, notwithstanding, an abandonment of 133,000 acres, according to the report of the co-operative crop reporting service for Indiana, issued today. The rye acreage is 32,000 acres less than last year and the hay acreage 976,000 acres less than last year. Plowing and seeding of spring crops are well advanced and all live stock is in good condition. The report follows: Os the 2,221,000 acres seeded to winter wheat in Indiana last fall there will be abondoned 133,000 acres or 6.0 per cent, according to reports received to May 1, leaving 2,088,(MX) acres for harvest, compared with 2,052,000 acres harvested in 1922 and 2,012,000 acres harvested in 1921. The principal reasons for abandonment are given as heavy winds in March and April and lack of moisture in many localities in the northernopart of the 1 state, together with some winter killing, where ice covered the low places and some bottom lands that were flooded in the southern part. The condition of the crop on May 1 was 78 per cent of normal, compared with 89 per cent last year. On this basis a total production of 30,293,000 bushels is indicated at this time. Last year’s final estimate for the state amounted to 29,754,000 bushels. The rye acreage for grain in Indiana this year amounts to 286,000 acres which is a decrease of 32,000 acres compared with last year. The condition on May 1, was 86 per cent of normal and indicates a total production of 3,985,000 bushels, compared with 3,816,000 bushels the final estimate of grain harvested last year and 3,978,000 bushels for 1921. The tame hay acreage in Indiana shows a decrease of 325,000 acres over last year, leaving 2,250,000 acres for harvest. This large decrease is due principally to w’inter killing of clover and other crops cut green for hay. The wild hay acreage is slightly less than last year and amounts to approximately 21,000 acres. The condition of-all hay on May 1, was 74 per cent of normal and indicates a production of 2,398,000 tons of tame hay and 21,000 tons of wild hay. Last year's final estimate for the production of tame hay was 3,734,000 tons and for 1921 it w’as 2,549,000 tons. The wild hay final estimate for last year was 25,000 tons and for 1921 it was 22,000 tons. There is 15 per cent of last year’s hay crop still on farms w’hich amounts to 564,000 tons and is considerably larger than usual for this time of year. The spring season has been very favorable for outdoor farm operations and 70 per cent of the plowing for the state’s spring crops hd been completed up to May 1. The sow’ing and planting had been 47 per cent completed on May 1 and consists principally of oats and barley, although much truck and early potatoes had been planted. Pastures in the state showed a condition of only 68 per cent of normal on May 1, compared with 93 per cent last year. The mortality of live stock in Indiana during the year ending April 30, was as follows: Horses

and mules from disease 18 per 1,000; cattle from disease, 20 per 1,000 and 6 per 1,000 from exposure; sheep, 30 per 1,000 from disease and 10 per 1,000 from exposure; the loss of lambs from both disease and exposure amounted to 6 per 1,000 and the loss of swine from disease alone amounted to 65 per 1,000. Thete were no serious outbreaks of disease in any part of the state during the year, but the losses, except for swine, were slightly higher than the average. The general condition of healthfulness in the state of live stock is reported to be 95 per cent of normal for horses and cattle, 93 per cent for sheep and 92 per cent for swine. o WINS SIO,OOO BET BY SHOOTING BIG WOLF Brooklyn, N. Y.—Although he traveled 2,000 miles, 300 of them on snow-shoes, lost fifty pounds in weight, froze two fingers, fell over a precipice into a snow 'bank, lived three days on one muskrat and got lost in a Canadian blizzard, Capt. Frank Doudera, big game hunter, is happy for he w’on SIO,OOO by finally shooting a big timber wolf on a w’ager. In a friendly chat Doudera said he thought he could shoot a w’olf. City Marshal John Cole, who was read up on w’olfing and knew* that most of them are killed by traps or poison and seldom by a gun, bet SI,OOO that Doudera could not shoot a w’olf in five w’eeks of hunting. Others chipped in until the pot was $lO,000. Doudera trailed w’olves for four w’eeks and saw’ hundreds of pelts turned in by trappers, but shot none. Just when he was ready to despair a wolf stopped to kill a rabbit and Doudera made his kill. After that it was easy and he shot five others and a bear. The bear’s two cubs w’ere sent to the Brooklyn zoo. — o • Spring makes people lazy. The other seasons that make people lazy are summer, fall and winter.
