.rAxLMCT NE. WRONG INN

Il 1NDER the constitution every congress is lazy
~ unto itself as far as the finances OF the nation
arc concerned, yet practice there has TO be certain
continuity in the financial transactions OF the govern
ment and 50 the custom has grown up for congress to
follow pretty closely the general financial program OF
the treasury department. However, the recommended
tons Of treasury chief Of an outgoing administration
which has been considered rather extravagant cannot
be expected to be very binding upon congress con-
troIed by the opposite political party which IS COM
mitteed to sweeping government economies.
Therefore, it probably will not be Necessary TOR
the average man TO spend much time studying the tax
recommendations ofSecretary Houston until it becomes
apparent how much money the government is gong to
need after the Republican economy program gets START
ed and it is known what parts Of the Houston scheme
are in favor with the. financiers Of the house.
Nevertheless it does seem thatthere should be some
protest against the Houston plan TO put the tax on IN
comes below SIS, 900 back to the original SIX per cent
rate This is an increase of two per cent and 1t adds
by Just that much 10 the burden Of The class which
was the hardest hit by initiation and the outrageous
postwar profiteering- saaned people and those
who are living on small fixed incomes.
Most Of the schemes to tax excessive Prohts out OF
the people who made them have been failures but there
should be enough financial brains in the government
TO devise some plan for raising revenue which will not
make the struggle any harder than is at present for
the hundreds Of thousands whose only source OF income
is small salary, already inadequate to cope with Nv
ing costs.

BADLY CROWDED
Teacher Shortage Respon-
sible for Conditions
That Are Bad

WHEELING, ". Va. Dec. 81
The Executive Committee of the
West Virginia Education associa.
ton finds upon Investigation that
the schools in the state that are IN
session are crowded beyond their
capacity. Schools that have been
able to secure teachers arc accom-
modatIng pupils from their own dis
tricts and are attmepting to accom-
modate pupils from other districts
until buildings are literally running
over with pupils.
Many town schools in the state
have been compelled to turn away
pupils from rural districts who
would gladly pay tuition. This
turning away was made necessary
by tne large enrollments-from 10
to 50, and even 60 pupils to o room,
who occupy all the seating capacity.
Many OF the towns are running
fone, two, and three teachers short
while many OF the rural districts do
not have teachers at all. County
superintendents are reporting many
schools not in session because OF a
lack Of teachers varying in numbers
from two to seventy-five. eighty and
ninety. Because OF this shortage
many children are being taken
upon the farm to town with the
hope on the part OF the parents Of
giving their children some educa'
tional opportunity.

that ought to receive serious attention at the COM
ing session of the West Virginia legislature the
increasing cost Of lumber is perhaps the least OF the
evils that grow out Of the disappearance OF the
forest growth. The big thing is the close connec-
