Vacations--Let Us Learn

The other day, when train from
the region of lake and forest in north
ern Wisconsin reached Milwaukee,
there alighted from sleeping ear
exactly three passengers Throughout
the journey, however. all the berths
had been occupied, mostly with SUNNI
Chicago and beyond
This is one of the many instances
which show that in general the Peep
lie of Milwaukee and of Southern Wis
consin have much to learn about our
North Woods, it's many streams and
countless lakes, it's SURPRISING charms.
Nor do they appreciate even in rea-
sonable measure the opportunity that
the North Woods gives them to gain
rest and quite, to regain strength, to
lengthen their days.
Of course many Milwaukee men and
women do realize all this. This is why
they are annual pilgrims, but, every
thing CONSIDERED, their numbers are
small compared with those who flock
to the North woods every year from
Chicago. from other sections of lii
nois, from Indiana, Ohio, Iowa, Miss
ouri, Kansas and Nebraska. They come
from places still more distant. In fact,
motor cars bearing the names of Ken
lucky, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi
and even Florida are quite common
sights iu upper Wisconsin.
From Milwaukee, however, the
chief points among the forests lakes
and rivers of northern Wisconsin can
be reached in short nights journey
by train or a days fast ride if one mot
ors.
The inhabitants of any other city do
not have better opportunity, few so
good Que. to spend week, fort
night, a month, most enjoyably and
benefically and at small cost.
1t might be argued that it is their
duty first to see and know their own
state. Duty, however. is inconsistent
with the idea of vacations. Enough
that their greatest opportunity during
vacation time lies in the North Woods
and the self interest and the certainty
of keen enjoyment and personal bene-
fit points the way to them. 1t is there
that they would go quite regularly il
they only knew. Why not learn?

Tax the Foreigner Also

European and Asiatic industries pay
no tax to the United States unless
they pay it through the American
custom houses. Every American indus
try pays tax, many taxes, to the
Federal, the State and the municipal
governments. Now European nations
are appearing before Congressional
Committees arguing for a lower duty
on goods imported to this country.
If they ship their goods in here, Am
erican industry will suffer to the ex-
tent that foreign goods supplant Am
erican goods in our own markets.
Therefor, they are asking the United
States to relieve them of taxes at
the custom house in order that they
may the more easily destroy Ameri-
can industry And they think we
might possibly be simple minded en-
ough to fall for that sort of scheme.
Relief, from taxation is what the
people want They voted last Novemb-
er for relief from wisconsin, and high
taxes are largely result of the extra
VACANT manner in which the Wilson
administration conducted both the war
and peace business of the government.
1t is impossible for the Republican ad-
ministration to put government ex-
penditures back to normal figure in
a few months, but the administration
is making progress in that direction In
corresponding degree Taxation will
be reduced 1t must be remembered
that in the campaign of 1920 the Re-
publican expressly disavowed any
expectation of Immediately reducing
taxes, but they pledged an immedi-
ate revision of taxes SO that. the taxes
which discourage enterprise and thrift
would be repealed. That much the
Republicans can and will accomplish.
