1t is much the same in the of town. Public
sentiment has advanced much in this matter during the

THE DESIRE TO SHIFT the burden of taxation the
desire seemingly get something for nothing, causes
divduals organizations communities and states appeal
to their Federal representatives for national appropriations
for undertakings of less local interest. The
sort of appeal that originates in locality orgi
mates in hundred thousand others, and the COM
munications from constituents which in upon
bers of Congress induce them to support the appropra
Ons which make the burden Of which taxpayers
plain.
1t needless to recount the various purposes for
which these appropriations asked There is the
for Federal funds control almost every pest
which agricultural of kind are subject There
the demand that the United States govern
ment shall supply not only supervision but direct assist
in controlling almost every form of human disease
The United States controls the enforce
ment the liquor laws which formerly left to the
states municipalities Through the Federal Trade
Commission the government is attempting to diminish
fraud The government has joined with the states in
cooperative system of highway Improvement 1t has also
joined with the states cooperative plan for
medical attention in maternity 1t proposed that
the government shall public building in every city
town having first, second third class post office.
1t is proposed that the government shall extend its work in
the construction of internal canals that the government
shall undertake the protection of the banks of the Mssiss
ippi; that the government shall expend millions on
Muscle Shoals.
These are only few of the projects which call for
or larger the Federal treasury, and many
of them have merit they indicate the why
ernment expenditures continue to grow.
In the ultimate analysis, responsibility for large ap-
preparations rests not with Congress but with the citizen
ship country 1t useless to write to members of

but at the time write to them in favor Of particular
The two positions inconsistent and

Morning News in commenting upon the tax problem as
part of the work for the session Of the legislature
said
Taxation will of the most important subjects

members should be capable of at least understanding
some of the fundamentals of just taxation The Repubh
cans pledge themselves to official body or the
change of present official body which is to investigate
approved methods taxation sources Of revenue and
work out plan equitable distribution OF taxation
upon individuals and classes Of taxables.
Delaware never wants to be regarded as an undesr-

NATIONS BUSINESS TURNING
TO HIGHWAY TRANSPORTATION

That the business of the nation is
turning more and more to highway
transportation is indicated by statis-
tics on motor-vehicle registration as
of July 1, compiled by the Bureau of
Public Roads of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. Registration
of passenger cars, taxis, busses, and
motor trucks totaled 10,62O,471 on this
date, an increase of 157,176, which is
a healthy growth, as the first half of
the year is the off season for registra-
tiOn of new vehicles.
The surprising fact, however, is
that of the 157,174 increase in regis
tration; motor trucks constituted 116,-
7O1, against 35,030 passenger cars and
SAB taxis and busses. This means an
increase of over 16 per cent of the
number of motor trucks at the begin
ming of the year. Figures are not
available to show what part of the in
crease of SAB, or nearly II per cent,
in the taxi and bus registration is due
to the increase in the number of

busses traversing rural and suburban
routes, but it is very probable that
considerable part of the increase is
due to the development of this new
form of transportation.
1t has been frequently said that the
traffic is always ready and waiting
when good roads are built, and that
the commercial vehicle as a class is
more handicapped by lack of good
roads than the pleasure vehicle. The
increase in the registration of COM
mercial vehicles, coupled with the
present activity in highway construc-
tiOn, seems to bear out this statement
in the opinion of department officials.
The table of statistics issued by the
bureau shows a registration of 9,467,-
874 private cars, $500 taxis and
busses, and 1,096,6O5 motor trucks,
making total of 1O,62O,471. Motor
cycles are not included, there being
