WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, JANUARY 10, 1925 17 FINDS ISLANDS HAVE GOOD RULE 'Thomas E. D. Bradley tells Filipinos They are Ready for Independence VISITS IN MANY LANDS Former Wilmette Man Makes World Tour Mr. and Mrs. Thomas E. D. Brad- ley, former Wilmette residents, who are making a tour around the world, have been heard from recently in Manila, in the Philippine Islands. They received a warm welcome from the American colony there and con- siderable mention from The Philippine Herald. Extracts from an. interview given by Mr. Bradley to that paper follow : "I 'have faith in you as a people. Sometimes I feel America has been too exacting with you in regard to this independence question. I would rather have her err on the side of independence giving than on the dila- tory tactics of withholding from the Filipinos that which is theirs by birth- right." Thus spoke Judge Thomas E,. D. Bradley of Chicago, who arrived on board the President Cleveland on a world tour. Judge Bradley is ac- companied by Mrs. Bradley in his trip. Calls Government Stable . "You have stable government here In your country, you have your repre- sentatives and officials elected by popular election,--possibly the clean- est among those held in similar de- pendent peoples of the world. 'Japan is only a bugaboo that only exists for talking purposes. She is no menace to your independence. After studying Japan for years, I Have -come to the conclusion that Japan today more than ever before is very sensitive of public opinion. Her ac- tions are now changed. She feels that she must behave. ot udge Dradley believes at there are four things that hinder Japan from becoming an aggressive nation namely: the league of nations which will punish her for her misdeeds, and to which she belongs; that the mili- taristic party in old Japan is dead or at least getting out of power, that financial burdens of Japan and her increased indebtedness cannot permit her to fight new battles or plunge her people into new conflicts, and lastly, that the cult of the imperial worship is not as strong as it was before." Mr. Bradley and his wife are with a party of 14 other Chicago people, who are touring the world for the purpose of studying conditions in the various countries. From the Philip- pines they were scheduled to go to Hong Kong. OFFERS A TAX HINT FOR PROPERTY OWNER If you own a small apartment build- ing, or a store or a residence and there has been a natural depreciation of the property during 1924, just how will you compute this in your income tax return which you must turn into Uncle Sam next March? There is a new rate of tax for individuals under the revised in- come-tax law and there are at least four- teen radical changes in the new law as compared with the law of 1921, and what is the average citizen to do? One thing can be done and that is intelligent study of these changes, and on that score Northwestern University School of Commerce at Lake and Dearborn streets, Chicago, is putting on, starting Friday evening, January 2, a special course in the fundamentals of federal taxes under the direction of Prof. David Himmel- blau, head of the acounting department of the school, and Harry Thom, an in- structor in accounting. Some of the changed provisions, for example, of the new income tax law are cited by Prof. Himmelblau as fol- lows : With respect to the concept of earned income and resultant reduction in taxes; new rules for computation of capital net gains; new rules for determining gain or loss from sale of property acquired before March 1, 1913: computing tax re- sulting from consolidations and reorgan- izations; new status of liquidating divi- dents; computation of gain or loss re- sulting from the sale or exchange of property and changes in time allowed for filing claims for refund. There will be lectures Friday nights and problem sessions and discussions on Tuesday evenings up to and including February 17.
