EQUITABLE INCOME FAXES.

 There still better argument, however, for heavier on large incomes According to figures submitted by the Association an Equitable Income Tax, there IS an immense wealth flowing in steady stream people who don't need it, of which more liberal share might well go to help pay expenses.

 Last year, unquestionaby, there another great in halfmillion and milliondoar incomes And the present year will further increase. It's in with the old biblical rule ITO him that hsth shall be given" The money man has the more, approximately he make

 Rarely in the history have conditions arisen such as have been witnessed Arizona since Novem- Der T.

 Waste Unnecessary.
 Because Arizona is a rich state. furnishes no excuse for wasting pub lie money
 State employees should be required to measure up to tine standarGs of ability demanded in commercial iii, Il putting into practice this business principle the number of state em- plcyes might be materially reduced.
 4 large part Ot Jur ate work is of a routine character and requires no special training for its perform ance.
 Unnecessary offices should be abolished. Whenever possible the work of offices should be combined, when this can be done without injury to public service.
 There are too many holidays. Va cations are too readily granted. The actual hours of employment are gen orally too short. State clerks and employees should work eight hours a day.
 Economy and efficiency is no long CT a beautiful theory. It is a wise practice and has come to stay. A state can be just as economical, if it will. as a man in private citizenship You have an opportunity of setting a splendid example to all other depart nents Of state by your action in the selection only of competent and neoes- sary help to assist you in the labors now before you.
 In conclusion. [ offer my best and most hearty cooperation in all mat ters aiming at the social. civic and industrial improvement Of the state of Arizona.

BETTER STAY HOME; EUROPEAN
TOURS TO COST FORTUNES.

Washington, Jan. Shy Union AS
ISOLATED Press)-From reports receiv-
ed from various American troups to
Europe in the near future will be lin
tied to the millionaire class. Cheap
tours through Europe are considered
ended forever, for the days in which
a dollar trebled in value by cross
ing the water are gone. The increase
in the cost Of labor, taxation due to
the war, the wear and tear on all
means of travel, augmented by the
neglect which war brought about, and
the great and general economic loss
and waste incident to the present
times have removed Central Europe
especially from the list of places
where one could spend a few weeks in
great comfort and still save the price
of a first-class steamer ticket. Travel
after the war, it is predicted, will be
much more expensive than it will be
in the United States.
