UNFAIR TO PUBLIC

The tax exemption feature OF the
Federal Farm Loan Act is to be tested
in the courts. II is contended that our
Constitution does not delegate to the
government power to form organ

profit, loan money at less than current
rates and exempt such transactions
from all forms OF taxation.
The bonds issued by Farm Loan
Banks. organized under this act are en-

The act places unfair obstacles and

other candidate for the United States
senatorship in his party and it is
freely being predicted that he will be
nominated on the first ballot. The

and State Treasurer Eagleson for the
gubnatorial nomination with signs
pointing to local victory for Eagleson.
At practically all other points, how

dark horse should be entered 1t is pre-
dicted that he viii win the nomination

In north Idaho it seems reasonably
certain that Gooding will have at least

TO ENCOURAGE AMERICAN
MERCHANT MARINE

The Pacific American Steamship
Association, which includes practically
all steamship companies under Amer
lean Flag operating in offshore trade
on Pacific, is strongly in favor of sec
ton 25 of new Shipping Bill before
Congress, which provides for reduction
of capital cost of vessels through a
high rate of depreciation.
Operators of ships under the Amer
lean flag have been handicapped by the
high fixed charge, which includes in
terest and insurance, imposed on
American carriers, as compared with
the ships owned by Japan, England or
in other foreign countries. It appears
that British-owned tonnage is valued
as low as $4,000 a ton, while in this
country the invested values are no less
than $4,000 ton and much higher in
many cases. 1t is this advantage that
the depreciating features of the new
Dill seek to correct. The rate of de-
probation and other workings are to be
placed IN the hands of a committee.
which will consist of the secretary of
secretary of the treasury
and the chairman of the Shipping
Board. The Manufacturer.

COM M UNITY WRECKERS

The Greeley Colorado News makes
some pertinent remarks relative to
politicians and agitators who are con-
stantly heckling public utility and other
corporations on the theory that they are
friendless. The News says the country
will be better off when this class of
trouble makers pass to their reward.
The public has been enlightened by a
period of government operation and
knows it costs money to operate a big
utility and give the people service.
Nothing will hold back community
development and keep out capital so
much as a handful of two by four
politicians seeking their own aggrand
izement by attacking community's
large industries or utilities in the hope
of thus securing the votes of a mis-
informed or uniformed public.
Bullwhac<ing utilities and industries
does not gain the public favor it used
to, however.
