were made. Not satisfied with the heavy
eXactions upon the oil producers the state
tax rate was increased on the farmers and
every other property owner in the state.
This same condition will prevail again, not
withstanding the war burdens and the de-
struction of industry as long as irrespOn-
Siblc demagOgues are placed in office.
Excessive and unnecessary tax reduces
production, clogs the wheels of industry,
and the action of the state in this regard is
seriously hampering the oil producers in
their efforts to meet the request Of the gov
ernment for increased production. The oil
business is extremely hazardous; men can
not take the risk incident to this business
when antagOnized and burdened in every
conceivable manner by the state.
To secure the growth of industry and the
development and conversion of raw mate
rials (Which are here in abundance) into
money and useful articles of commerce, the
state should adopt broad-minded and fair
basis for business operations.

ton is composed of men engaged in the

Fair, Honorable, Men
For the Legislature

With the hope of procuring an econom-
ical business administration of the state
government, we appeal to and ask the CO.
operation OF the voters of the respective
political parties in each legislative district
to select honorable, fair minded and ca
pable men to serve in the Legislature. We
likewise plead that the same effort be made
in the selection Of all public officers
We believe if this method is followed all
industry will be treated fairly and that the
tax burdens upon all will be reduced.

Many individuals and corporations doing
sixty per cent of their income in taxes to
the Federal Government to help defray
necessary war expenses
The state of Oklahoma imposes an in
come tax of 2 percent upon this tax money
going to the Government. No exemption
is allowed by the Oklahoma law for the
money paid out as Government Tax. If
the Government increases the income and
profits tax to one hundred percent, the
Oklahoma taxpayer must, under the okla
homa law, pay tax to the State on that out
Law This fact is alluded to and pointed
out to the citizens of Oklahoma in add
ton to the other excessive tax eXaCtiOns
levied on those engaged in the oil industry
for the purpose of showing the vicious fight
that has been made upon this industry by
politicians in Oklahoma. And we regret
to note there is still some of this loud
mouthed, blatant bunch still trying to ride
into office by vilifyng those engaged in
this great industry.
Tax burdens are so heavy that there is
a large number of our industrial business
men and concerns borrowing money to pay
them. This condition means such enter
prises are facing insolvency; at least they
are in such condition that they will have
to cease drilling additional wells and con-
tributing to the extension of oil produC-
ton Oil producers cannot stand up under
the heavy tax requirements of the gov
crnment if unnecessary taxes are imposed
by the State.
Money in Oklahoma is limited, and the
time has come when the people should CO.
operate in order to work out a scientific, fl
nancial system for the state, and the state
expenditures held down to a ufnimum CON
sstent with a reasonable performance of
the state functions.
Six million dollars were appropriated in
excess of the recent state requirements by
the last session of the Oklahoma Legis-
lature. Anyone having doubts about this
statement should read the message of the
Governor at the opening of the Legislative
session II was because they felt they
could get the money easy from oil industry
that these extraordinary appropriations
