The November election went
this way and that, in various plac
es with offices of minor import
ance in the balance in most in
stances, and local or group con
siderations as controlling factors.
In New York City the issue was
Tammany control and in other re
gions the fight was waged to a lar
ge extent between the American
Federation of Labor and the CIO.
If election issues could be held
strictly to party lines, politicians
would miss many a sleepless
night. At every political banquet
the local issue ghost walks in
and takes its sea, to the equal
discomfort of Democratic and Re
publican managers, and nothing
can be done about it, since, after
all, politics like charity begins
at home.
As an aid to business recovery
the present session of congress
probably will be called upon to
rule on the propriety of letting
down the bars a little in the
matter of taxes on theundistribut
ed profits of corporations, it b:
ing the view Of many that busi
ness wotild be better if a corpora
tion, like an individual, were per
mitted to have more freeedom
in laying aside something for a
rainy day. So far as the investor
is concerned, the American Tele
phone and Telegraph Company
furnishes a good example of what
a corporation can do if not com
elled to live from hand to mouth.
On the other hand, the investor
is not the only one concerned.
The White House up to the pre
sent time has had little or noth
ing to say upon the subject of
reducing the excess profits tax.
The subject is one of the many
which congress and the president
will have to get together.
In Tennessee a young man
commits suicide after an auto
brush in which little damage was
done. Fortunately the average
auto driver is made of sterner
stuff. Judging by the number of
bent fenders one sees on the
streets, in the possession of
grumbling and irate but living
owners, the tendency after a fend
er-denting math is to jump, not
into the river but upon the other
fellow’s neck.
The Treasury deficit is reported
at $563,403,216.54. No comment is
made on the figures in round
dollars, but that fifty-four cents
is irritating. It does seem as tho
by passing the hat or otherwise,
the cents might have been kept
out of the public print. Five mil
lion dollars is a respectable sum
