purchase the machine. On wiring their
order they were informed, that the ma
chine could not be packed and shipped
inside Of four days. OF course that
puts the kybosh on that matter de-
spite the good intentions of the per-
sistent twenty-five live wires, so there
will be no air flight i'll Delta today

THOUGHTLESS TAXATION

It is as easy to develop spirit of reck- 1essness in taxation as it is in spending money In the latter the reckless spendor pays the price of his own eXtravagance in the former the citizen pays the penalty of reckless eXtravagance.
 Spending tax money is mania and 1t IS time to look toward more economic taxa tion methods and also spending of taxes
 There is entirely too much feeling that Congress can plaster taxes and that there IS nothing left to do but pay
 It IS easily possible to tax an industry and those dependent it, clear out of business Take for example the extra per cent excise tax on candy and confectionery
 To the thoughtless legislator it is sim pie thing to raise large sum by special tax candy makers.
 As candy manufacturers cannot stand any such tax out of their pofrts it must be added to selling price or taken out of quality
 If the former, consumption is cut thus adversely affecting western sugar beet grow ing and manufacture and reducing amount the
The copper era and Morenci leader., 1919-05-09

consumers of this country get for their money. If manufacturers try to absorb the tax by making an inferior product at the former price. the people pay in quality and the sugar industry suffers.
 This is a good illustration of special or class taxation and there'is altogether too much of it in this country today. It is high time to start on getting back to the true American principles of equal taxation for all, not only in candy manufacture but other lines of in dustry.
 The candy is the thirty fifth largest in the United States It employs hundreds and hun dreds of thousands of people, mostly women. It supplies food product which is the greatest joy and pleasure of childhood and is whole some, nourishing food supplying the system with an essential requirement. Is 1t right just to burden this or any other great industry with special tax which it can obviously not stand.
 It is the height of folly in these times to handicap any industry by killing taxation, when employment is needed as the one sure counter-active for BOlshevism.
