The United States has little hope of
making many friends among the
European nations at war. France
don't like US because we did not pro-
test against Germany in invading
Belgium; Germany don't like US be-
cause conditions are such that she
can't secure munitions of war here,
the Allies holding the sea; England
is not we'll pleased because America
does not approve of her deliberate
seizure of American cargos. Italy
has not complained yet, but there are
hopes. A select few are making some
hundreds of millions in America, and
the rest are enjoying hard times.
Neutrality doesn't seem to neutralize
anything, not even the hate that a
beligerant nation has for a neutral
country.

other question. After this scheme

The state tax commission has raised
the valuation of mines in the state
$11 100000 this year. The raising of
valuations does not hurt so much as
the tax rate. When the valuation of
property is doubled and the tax rate
is lowered a few cents, it means that
your taxes are heap higher. The
rate and the valuation are not so
much to be considered in any event,
as the amount of money that must be
raised to pay for an extravagant
state government. The rates should
not worry taxpayers in the least-it
is the total amount of money raised
by taxation and whether or not it is
spent in buying things for the benefit
of the people governed. See the
point? What are we taxed for and
what do we get for our money?
