EASING THE BURDEN OF STATEJIMTION Banker Points Cut Benefits of Community Property System in Some States. Favorable aspects ot tax systems are now among the most highly prized assets of our states, it is pointed out in the American Bankers Association Journal in connection with an article on how California, which has never had a state Income tax. cuts state and Federal death taxes nearly tn half by the "community property" system. L. H. Roseberry. Vice President Security Trust and Savings Bank. Loe Angeles, author of the article, says that a recent amendment to the tax law enables future residents o< the state to take' advantage of it. Reference is made to a former article by Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Dewey, voicing the need for death tax reform and citing a hypothetical case Involving California inheritance taxes which might have been levied In 1920. Since that time the laws have been changed. 4«r. Roseberry declares, so that the figures then given do not correctly represent the present situation. He says: "Ever since Its admission California has had the •community property* system. Eight other states have a similar system. •Community proper ty’ is property accumulated by mar ried persons during their marriage, except that which is acquired by gift bequest or inheritance. Approximately 55 per cent of all property to the state is •community property.’ Buch property to California enjoys the most favorable position in regard to flgath taxes, both state and FederaL of any state in the Union (excepting possibly the eight other states having a similar property system) including states boasting of no inheritance tax whatever. The California ‘commuilty property' system is recognised for the purpose of levying Federal estate taxes, and only one-half of it is now so taxed, while in Florida the whole estate of a decedent is subject to tbs Federal levy. How the Law Works "California’s law expressly provides that upon the death of either’husband or wife, testate, only one-half of their net ‘community property’ shall be subject to Inheritance taxes. The same exemption applies upon the death of the husband, intestate, while the whole net •community property* is totally exempt from all state inheritance taxation upon the death of the wife intestate. The Federal estate tax law now follows precisely the California law in this respect. "As the' result of an amendment made to the California inheritance tax law by the 1925 Legislature, this immunity from state Inheritance taxes likewise now extends to ‘community property* of non-resident married persons, who hereafter take up their legal residence In the state. This puts ‘community property* to a more favorable position regarding death taxes than exists in any other state in the Union, with the possible exception of the other community property states. This extension of the exemption will add 15 per cent to property In the state coming under this deflnlton. which means that approximately 80 per cent of all property probated tn California will enjoy the lightest death taxes in America. "To illustrate, the following example of a man survived by a wife and two minor children Is computed, the estate consisting of ‘community property* all left by will to the wife and children. One-half of such property would go under the law to the wife without any death taxes, and the other half only would be subject to both state inheritance and Federal •state taxes. "As a subject ot comparison, take a state which has no inheritance tax. snch as Florida if the comparison were made with the states which impose inheritance taxes but do not have the ‘community property’ system, the advantage tn favor of California would even be more striking.

Another New Amendment "Another feature of the recent rtnendment to the California inheritance tax law to a section fixing the inheritance taxes on stock to Califor tjia corporations owned by non-resi dents at a fiat sum of 2 per eent on their actual value. When conMdered to conjunction with the ruling that no inheritance taxes can be levied upon any stcck tn foreign corporations, or upon bank accounts, bonds, notes, de bentnree. or similar securities belong tng to a non-resident bat located in the state at the time of sueh noa-resl dent’s decease, it will be observed that at present the Inheritance tex situation to California is most favor able, both to non-residents who hat, property in this state and to marriei people who live here or who may sub •equently move hero from elsewben.** Hall *s Catarrh Med’cine Those who are In a “run-down” condition wiH notice that Catarrh bothers them much more than when they are la good health.

MADDEN ON GOVERNMENT , OWNERSHIP Martin B, Madden, Illinois Representative in Congress, Chairman of the House Committee on Appropriations, watchdog ff the Treasury and a leader in tax reduction program in Washington. in addressing a 12-state Western Taxpayers' Conference it Portland, said in regard to •jovemment operation of business: "Governmental agencies are not qualified to operate any business out of which any profits are to be made. Patronage to pass >ut» the demands of influential friends to satisfy, and the continual upbuilding of political nrestige at public expense are the things that account for most of our governmental troubles.” Referring to the attempt at •rovernment ownership of an American merchant marine, Mr. Madden used the United States Shipping Board as an illustration. He explained how sudden requirements of the ?ountry when plunged into the world war had thrown it into the shipbuilding business. At the close of the war the government had 437 ships but then someone conceived the idea that the government ought to go into the shipping business and make the United States the greatest maritime natioh on the faee of the earth. "Not satisfied with the 437 c hips we had and which we didn’t know what to do with, we got busy and built a lot more, so chat pretty soon we had 2,300 — some of which wouldn’t float. These cost us over $3,000>,000,000. There was not a member of the Shipping Board who knew anything about operating ships, and if there had been it probably would not have helped matters much, for there were 531 men in Congress that had 531 different ideas of Just what should be done. “Now I am heartily in favor of perpetuating an American merchant marine. I am in favor of doing it even if we have to give these boats away. I found that it was costing more than $50,000,000 a year to take care of these boats, only one-fifth of which we were using at all. It was costing the major portion of this amount to keep the boats we were not using and had no earthly use for, afloat. We have succeeded in cutting our annual loss dewn to $36,000,000, but we still have to pay out $24,000,000 of this to keep ships afloat that aren’t in use. My idea is to get rid of them so we can keep the American flag afloat.” In this brief sketch of the nation’s experience with government ownership and operation of ships, Mr. Madden told the whole story of such* ventures which, of necessity, are subject to political management. No more striking object Jessen could be placed before the American people to guide them away from such undertakings. L© THE SHENANDOAH WRECKED Thirteen members of the crew of the Shenandoah, pride of the United States navy air service, were killed <4nd many others of the forty-four men were injured when the big dirigible broke up in a storm near Cambridge, Ohio, at 5:45 Thursday mornings The airship left Lakehurst, N. J.. Wednesday evening and was headed for Indianapolis. Near Ava, Ohio, about saxty-five miles oast of Columbus, she ran into a terrific windstorm. The structure of the ship collapsed and the fore part fell to the ground from % height of 5,000 feey The after oart of the airship was brought to the ground at Sharon, twelve Elites from Ava. All those whq were killed *were in the fore part of the Shenandoah when it broke up in the heavy wind. A GOOD EXAMPLE Two Washington fire guards were arrested for kmoking and for leaving campfires burning in the forest they were "protecting.” An Oregon ma» was fined SIOO for refusing to help put out a fire he had started, saying that he had lived there for 47 years and he "knew all about fires.” z Northwest has just gone through a bad fire season; it would have been worse if extraordinary precautions had not been taken. It will take a lifetime to put many burned-over areas back to the condition they were in last spring. A law that punishes the careless, defiant or criminal user of our forests, is a good law that needs rigid enforcement. ; o Some Way to Hold ’Em A London professor says that men are in the prime of Use kt the age of twenty-seven. The next thing to to dtocover aonie to hold them there.

MODERN ENOCH AKDEN STORY BE(MIMES PUBLIC An Enoch Arden, richly laden with the world’s goods, after 16 years of wandering in strange places, came to Huntington recently. None of Hayden H. Webber’s relatives had seen him since he walked out his home at Fairfield. 111., in 1909 after disagreeing with his wife. Webber lost track of his family during his adventuring and only through a chance ■conversation with a barber at Jackson, Tenn., did he learn of their whereabouts. T,h a t brought him to the home of his sister. Mrs. E. B. Streseman, of Huntington. Webber’s father I and mother live near Andrews.. Ind., two other sisters reside near Huntington and a fourth sister also lives in Huntington. The four sens of Weber were reunited with the father. The wanderer’s wife had divorced him and remarried. Inflamed with anger, Webber left the Fairfield home bound for the fareast A tramp steamer set him down on a small island of the Hawaiian group. Once every six months a transpacific liner stopped at Webber’s island. This was his only connection with the outside world. In two vears he had developed an attractive suga/ plantation, literally hacking it out of the island wilderness. A syndicate bought it for more than Webber dreamed of receiving. The far places called and Webber next appeared in Africa, where he sold supplies, working for mining companies and speculated in various other enterorises. His efforts increased his bankroll. Two years later he went to Brazil in South America. Growing rubber was ;prcfitable for Webber. Finally his native land beckoned and the wanderer landed back in the states fairly well-to-do as America went to war with Germany. He enlisted in the marine corps, serving throughout with detachments on hoard transports. After the war he settled in Jackson, Te|in., becoming a building contractor. Webber made several trips to Fairfield in search of his family, but the wife and four sons were gone and there was none there who knew where. The boys had been put in an orphanage after Webber left and a few years later the wife remarried. While conversing with a Jackson barber the barber said he knew’ a “Webber fri Huntington. This was Harley, one of he sons, who is in the dry cleaning business in Huntington. Two of the boys, Earl, 17, of Fort Wayne, and Hayward, 16, of Trinity Springs, will be sent to a military school by Webber this fall. A fourth son, Rolley, is a mine foreman at Kincaid, Illinois. , o SOUTHERN DEVELOPMENT The Florida “boom,” instead of decreasing, has been gaining in momentum and signs of a weakening in real estate values are conspicuously missing. But the public is discovering that the development of the South is not going to be confined to Florida, or North Carolina, or any other particular State. It is starting opt on a scale that assures it will be South-wide. Nothing much has been said about it, but South Carolina is now well embarked on a State development that will keep it close to the head of enterprising Southern States. In the movement now started North Carolina will come next to Florida, with prospect of taking the lead from that State within the next two years. The immediate overflow from Florida covers a section of Georgia, South Carolina and Alabama, while Texas is holding its own in industrial development. Recent reports show that these southern states now lead New England in textile production. The magnitude of Southern development has amazed the country, but the movement is really only in its infancy, for behind it are many of the most progressive capitalists of the. nation. n Indtutriotu Artiet The great Spantoh painter, Bartolone Murillo, celebrated for hto relttfoua wa« an indefatigable worker.

PROHIBITION IN INDIA | The Legislative Assembly of India, in session at Delhi, has accepted a resolution declaring that the ultimate policy of the Government should be the prohibition of the production, manufacture, sale and import of foreign liquors, except for medicinal and research purposes. The amendment further recommended as a first step to the carrying out of this policy that the provincial governments should be directed immediately to grant kcal bodies the full right to determine the inumber and location of linuor shops. The Hindus and Mohammadans by their religious obligaI tions and traditions, were opposed to drink and the introduction of liquor by the English peoples has worked sad havoc among the population.' The resolution was opposed by the British Finance Director, who stated that the government could not occept, even in theory, ultimate prohibition and produced statistics to show that it meant the loss of 200,000,000 rupees now received at a minimum consumption. The prohibition movement, however, will undoubtedly be enforced in many municipalities were the Hindus and Mohammadans are now in control. o— ' The Continental Motors Corporation is preparing to produce what in Europe is called the '“Bug” car.
