PUBLIC OWNERSHIP
AND TAXATION.


There is alarm in some states lest
government ownership of railroads
deprive states Of their usual reve--
nues from taxing those properties.
In California and some other states
the great bulk Of states taxes is
collected from public utility corpor-
atoms.
1t is believed that federal legisla--
ton will be necessary to prevent hold
ing up these taxes in the courts and
depriving local governments of their
tax money.
Legislation will require the direc--
tor-general Of railroads to cause to
be paid all taxes levied by the
State and local taxing authorities up
on railroads pursuant to the laws
of the various States and in the
manner and at the time provided by
the taxing laws of the States"
At present the government is act
ing simply as a cooperative general
agent to manage the railroads and
the government does not pretend to
own the property or that it intends
to do so.
But state officials are justly alarm
ed at the danger from loss of pub
lie revenue, as it would double local
taxes on all other property from the
state to the smallest school dis
trict

CHAPTER RED CROSS.


The Payette Chapter of the Red
Cross and all the branches are hard
at work, and turning out work splen--
did in quantity and quality.
There are eight units, sewing now,
and daily attendance of thirty at
the work room. If such endeavors are
continued this County will fill its
allotment of boxes each month. NV
boxes of sewing have been shipped,
New Plymouth sending in Hospital
garment that filled about two thirds
of box.
The --Knitters have finished DUR
ing the month of Dec. 20 to Jan. 20
=. scarfs, helmets, 80 pair wrist
let's, 40 pair socks, and As sweaters.
The next box of knitting will be

their work in by that time, as many

in knowing that this large OUTPUT
of work cost between $500 and $500

ceived wonderful financial support
from the people, but Wen need more

1t may be well to state that the

&c. w. Giesler, Esq,
County Director of War Savings,
Payette. Idaho.
Dear Sir;
AS Secretary OF the State w.
is. S. Committee, want to send a
line in reply to your letter Of Janu--
airy 23rd, addressed to Mr.. Hawley
Mr.. Hawley already has replyed
ITO your letter 1 think, but I am
adding a line to say how encourag-
ing it is to receive report ike
yours as to the Savings Stamps agen'
cies. If you succeed in other towns
as you have already succeeded in
Payette, the percent of merchants In
your County who have already ap-
piled for agents of the first class
will probably be the best record
made in Idaho.
In this connection it is, probably
Unnecessary to say that the last
letter which / have written to all
OF the County Directors, in regard to
making a special effort to sign up
tho merchants as agents will not
be necessary in your case. Alos there
will probably be no need of making
an effort to have printed in your
County papers the article relativei
to insufficient number OF agents.
Yours very truly,
ALLEN B. EATON,
Sec. State Committee.

IMMENSE WAR PLANT
TO Be COMPLETED
IN RECORD TIME

Detroit.-Thera Is no doubt IN
the minds of Detroit residents about
the governments determination to re
spond promptly and theoretically to
Premier LloydGsorge's pleas Tor
million men. and mountain OF
arms. although many industries have
quietly taken over the manufacture
of munitions since the war began,
the new rush started only recently.
Gigantic new structures are being
put together with amazing speed to
handle immense new contracts for
the government. No shortage of ma
terials handicaps these undertakings.
Everything comes under government
priority order.
Probably the most prominent ex--
ample, both in magnitude and dis
patch is the immense new plant
which will house the Dodge Broth
ers munitions industry. The day after
a contract for millions of dollars
worth Of special recoil mechanism
had been allotted to Dodge Brothers
by the government, a force of hun
dreds of men, teams and machines
was on the ground, excavating and
assembling materials. The work since
then has been pushed with great
rapidity, the force of workmen being
enlarged rs fast as laborers and
mechanics are available. Over night
acres. of ground are transformed into
broad level floors of concrete. Great
masses of material are piling up on
MI sides in readiness for a building
which will measure 57SxS1S feet. 1t
is intended to have the plant in
operation next spring, with thousands
of workmen employed TIE entire
work is in charge of Dodge Brothers
own construction superinten dents.
Dodge Brothers willingness to &C.
capt this contract was induced by
their realization of the necessity for
prompt and complete corporation
with the government and not thru
any desire to engage in business
other than the manufacture of motor
cars. AS in the case of their motor
car industry, the DodFe Bros. are
their own executives and their own
directors. There were no prolonged
meetings, no debates. When the gov
eminent asked them to take over the
contracts, the work was ordered, and
it is being done.
Dodge Brothers are building the
plant entirely apart from their motor
car factory. Neither will interfere
with the other.
Not only are Dodge Brothers now
engaged with this tremendous prof.
ect, but they are building hundreds
of cars for service in the army, both
of the passenger and commercial
type. The latter is similar in almost
all details to the Dodge Brothers
Commercial car on which deliver
les began a few weeks ago.
AS a whole the automobile indus
try is cooperating with the govern
ment on a vaster scale than tire pub
lie generally imagines, this being but
one example of the energetic spirit
which is enabling the country to
get to the front promptly with men
and supplies.

DEMOCRATIC IDEALS

is the title Of a most timely bulletin
issued by the Department of Litera--
ture of the General Federation OF
Womenis Clubs (Mrs True Worthy
White, Arlington Heights, Mass,
Chairman), The Democracies OF
Greece and Rome, and the Hebrews,
the ideals of the Middle Ages; of
France and Of America; democracy
in poetry and in society, in the
school and the drama, are used in
order to bring home to us what Is
the great meaning of our world res
possibility today.
In her introduction, Mrs White
says:
1--WE are In the midst OF a titanic
struggle symbolized by the word De-
mocracy. When this symbol passes
current among us do We have a clear
realization of what it stands for; Is
it, to our minds, self--government; Is
it popular suffrage; Is it equality
in the law, in opportunity, in respon-
sibility; Is it social justice; Is
Democracy an objective ideal; Is II
state of mind; Is it character;
No dream of mankind has been
more precious, no vision more tender
ly and eloquently fcstered than that
OF Democracy. Governments have en-
bodied it's principles in some degree
the Christian Church strove to real
lie its justice. essayists and law
givers have expressed its aims and
methods, seers have created imagined
States where perfect freedom ruled,
poets have been inspired to their
noblest utterancies by the vision Of
q new world based on human brother
