Public Buildings Pork"

Nj OTlllNG more indefensible has been pro-
posed during the sessions of this Con-
gress than the $4,000, 900 bill for the con-
struction OF perhaps 100 Federal buildings in
towns with from 500 to 5000 population.
This measure is already drawn. and due for
presentation to Congress before the end of
this week.
If ever time existed when every species
or legislative pork should be outlawed, that
time is the present, when Congress is plan
ming to spend $3.50, 100000 to finance q
national defense policy. We have an
army in the field in anticipation of war. and
may at any minute be compelled to increase
It's numbers. In this season OF national
emergencies. involving enormous expendi-
lures of money, il is amazing that Demo-
cratic leaders Of the House should permit
the introductCp of such public buildings
bill.
This measure. as ii has been outlined not
even has the fact to its credit that il provides
increased postal facilities for the larger
cities now wretchedly congestcd. 1t is de-
signed to encourage the people OF the small
towns to favor present members of Congress
with further support That is literally all
the bill has TO stand on.

MAKES VOTES FOR Philip
Attempt TO Misiead Voters BY Demo
cratic Candidate Proves
Boomerang.

Milwaukee, Wis.-An attempt made
to discredit the Republican state ad-
ministration by the Democratic candi-
date for governor, Mr.. Williams. in
which he charges that law was
passed and signed by Governor Philip
which exempts grain elevators from
taxation, will make votes for Governor
Philip when the facts are known.
For many years, Wisconsin has had
law under which grain in elevators
has been assessed on the first Of May
the same as all other personal prop
erty. The assessors, therefore, have
made the assessment on the amount
of grain which was in the elevators
on that date. Minnesota, on the other
hand, has had a law by which every
bushel Of grain which entered an ele-
was assessed.
The result Of the working OF these
two laws was that in Minnesota all
grain which passed through elevators
paid a certain tax and in Wisconsin
very little grain in elevators was taxed
because the owners of the elevators
made it a point not to have any grain
on hand on May first
The new Wisconsin law is exactly
like the Minnesota law, and the result
is that Wisconsin viii be able to col
Iect taxes on all the grain which
passes through the state. There is
another feature Of importance TO Wis
consin. Under the old law grain IN
transit was held ia Minnesota during
the months of April and May to avoid
being assessed on May /. Under the
new law the owners Of elevators will
give Wisconsin the benefit OF IL
months business where the state had
but ten before. This means much to
ward the development Of northern
wiconsin cities. which naturally are
the shipping points FOR grain in tran.
sit across the lakes.
