TAX COLLECTIONS TOO HIGH

In discussing business conditions
for March, Roger w. Babson, presi-
dent of the largest organization of
business advisors in the world, issues
the following statement:
During March the Babson Bust
ness Index dropped from los to 9S.
This makes total decline of 1872
from the high point, $50, reached in
January, 1920. In my opinion this
March showing is largely accounted
for by our present system of taxa
ton.
'The bank clearings, building per-
mits. and other figures now coming
out for the first two weeks Of March
indicate that the time and energy
which 100000 of our people have
given to preparing these reports re-
suited in loss of about $1,000
100000 in sales, $55O.OO0.OOO in
manufacturing, and $50O,O00,OO0 in
other lines. If we add to this the

PROTECT INDUSTRIES
The process Of writing tariff bill
is ALWAYS unsettling TO business.

The process OF writing a tarin Dill
Is always unsettling to business.
II higher rates are proposed, for
eign manufacturers and merchants
naturally seek OF dump their products
to the maximum extent possible, in
order to forestAll the collection of the
heavier rates. The consequence Is
that not only is business unsettled
during the discussion Of a tariff meas
ure, but an act increasing duties
does not begin to be of general ef-
feet for some time after its adoption
because Of the food Of shipments
that comes into the country preced-
ing its adoption, in anticipation Of
the higher rates.
In the case of the tariff bill now
in formation, 1t is generally under
stood. Of course, that the purpose Of
those charged with responsibility for
it's construction Is to increase the
nominal rate of protection on many
products, in order to equalize more
nearly the costs of production at
home and abroad.
1t is estimated that 1t VIII take
from 3 to o months after the new
congress meets, to pass any kind of
n tariff bill.
In the meantime ii Is important |
that temporary emergency measure
be passed. thus preventing dumping
foreign products here. This Is the
plan followed by Great Britain when
tariff proposals are before parliament.

DANISH THE TRASH

Citizens have been generous to

nished truck load of iris, which
the firemen planted around the
foundation Of the library. =. o.
Farrar contributed some shrubs
and some labor to bring trees
and shrubs to healthier condition.
The Women's Federation Of Abb
lene donated trash can, which
has been placed at the steps of
the band stand, and it is hoped
that civic pride will induce peo-
pie to use 1t instead of the park
las n trash receptacle.
Artistic brick trash receivers
or cement ones in the shape of
upright trunks Of trees would be
welcome and not unsightly addi-
tions to the park. A drinking
fountain Is also needed.
Strangers visiting the public
library comment on the beauty
and variety of trees in the park.

by trees beautiful as the famed
avenues of California and the
South" on the long streets Of
comfortable homes without shah
by ones between; but they also
invariably comment on the sur
prising untidiness Of streets and
parks, strewn with paper and
other trash. OF course only the
united effort of citizens and
many receptacles for trash can
remedy the condition. 1t would
seem time for Abilene to be first
class in appearance as well as in

probably have 10000 Nom Partisan
League members by next election
and "may elect few representatives
and officials" II the League gets 40
600 members that means $4,000
votes, for woman are not League
members but farmers wives vote
with their husbands generally. And
If 10000 votes are swung one way
in the Republican primaries thanks
to Gov. Aliens veto of the party reg
istration bilD they can do nearly
they want to with the state
ticket. We think Gov. Allen exag-
cerates the probabilities Of League
success In Kansas-but things will
happen IL his prediction comes true.
