“There is no better way to return the matter of taxation to full public discussion than to repeal the withholding taxes on wages and salaries.

“My wife and child and I were on a camping trip and we stopped in Virginia City. In the Opera House, I saw a photograph of Maude Adams, the famous American actress.
