ALL SHOULD PAY
1*»« In a recent newspaper article, Walter Lippman, the dis-
tinguished publicist, pointed out that any sound national
taaing system must see to it that every citizen, no matter how
la^ge or small his income, pays something in direct taxes.
. Under present conditions, only a minority of citizens pay
a4? direct taxes whatsoever. And that has given rise to the
highly erroneous belief that the majority of citizens are free
from taxation that the sei vices of government come to
them for nothing, being paid for by the tax-paying minority.
• That attitude has been responsible for the amazing in-
difference of the average citizen toward wasteful, extrava-
gant and over-extended government. He feels that govern-
mental spending means nothing to him, so far as paying his
shore of the bill is concerned; that deficits are the worry of
oCIters, and that increasing appropriations cannot damage bis
poeketbook—and may benefit it.
As a matter of fact, the majority of citizens, who pay no

“For instance?” queried Mark.
“For instance Vanya. You’re in
love with her, you know!”
“I certainly ant not!” exclaimed
Mark vehemently. “On the con-
trary, I dislike her strenuously.
Simply because 1 admire her ob-
vious beauty is no sign I’m in love
with her!”
“No one,” said Loring dryly,
“could possibly be as beautiful as
you seem to think she is. And fur-
thermore, no person but a born
artist will chase an impersonal idea
of beautv over a whole ocean. It’s
pieces, under the equator, like
mine.” ,
Mark had no reply to make. He
was dazed, upset, and thoroughly
puzzled.
‘That’s your danger,” proceeded
his tormentor.* "Suppose you had
her under your familiar temperate
sky; suppose |his exotic, romantic,
poisoning tropic background were
lacking. How would you feel then?
Would she hold her charm in your
eyes? Would a prosaic background
destroy her lure? Is she attractive
only by virtue of contrast with her
undesirable assbeiates, and would
the competition of cultured women
topple the illusion of her superior-^
ity? What do you think?”
“I don’t know,” ^muttered Mark,
“What do you'think?”
“What I think doesn't matter.
The moral angle, whieh means so
much to you provincials, doesn’t
affect my opinion, and Fhat makes
my likes and dislikes utterly mean-
ingless to you. But personally, I
like her. despite her poor estimate
of me. In fact, her prejudice does
her credit!”
“Oh Lord!” groaned Mark. “If I
only believed her story!”
“So she told one, then. That’s
the moral question again, you see.
Is she fit for the company of decent
women? Could I take her into my
home, to meet my sister, my mother?
ThcNetf England standard!”
“Haven’t you any standard?”
flared Mark.
“I have ray code. Didn’t I just
refuse your offer of a drink? Now
I feel I’ve earned the right to one,
after this conversation. I’ll accept
your next offer gracefuLly.”
“The devil! You’re as consoling
as an ugly-tongued traffic cop.”
“And I serve a parallel purpose.
I point out wherein you’ve failed to
observe certain well-established
rules and regulations. The amount
of the fine, of course, js un to von.”
‘A lot of help
nics!” snarled Mark,
they are!”
“Have they earned me a drink?”
grinned Loring.
“Come on.” Mark paused sud-
denly. “That’s it!” he exclaimed
abruptly.
“That’s which?”
“live got it! The acid test—the
Trial by Fire!”

“She’d be a sensation on the
American stage,” ubserved Mark,
watching the flash of Vanya’s white
supple limbs through the rents of
the vagabond-like costume she wore.
“Wrong as usual,” contradicted
his cynical companion. “Her fea-
tures are too delicate to cross the
footlights, though she might make
the cinema. Still, that hint of in-
telligence in her face might kill
even that chance, judging from
some of your screen epics.”
“You’re a cold proposition,”
laughed Mark.
Vanya was singing now. Her eyes
passed coolly over Mark, ignoring
his tentative smile as she had done
all evening. She finished her song
and vanished without a sign of rec-
ognition. Loring gave Mark a ques-
tioning glance.
“Yes,” said Mark. “Now the

“I want to lose. If I do, I’ll know
