The Pulse of the Nation
Reduce the Overhead

There is world of wisdom in the
simple recipe for reduction Of taxation
in the two words: "Cut expense" The
trouble with almost every proposition
for public Improvement is not the actual
cost of the project, but the extra cost
for interest and upkeep, to which may
be added sometimes an additional out
lay to make old things correspond with
the new.
Another cause for high taxes is the
expense Of administration of public af-
fairs. No successful private business is
conducted with so great an overhead
as is public service. Employing more
help at higher wages than the private
business, there are few official depart
ments which could not give as efficient
service at half the current expense; yet
ever we hear the call for more machin-
cry in government, more help, and higher
salaries.
A paper in Boulder. Colorado. uses its
cover page as an editorial megaphone,
printing its leader in large type. 1t has
recently elaborated on the theme OF
"Cut the Overhead by illustrating pub
lie expense from it's poor fund, an in
significant amount but in which the cost
of distribution was 81 for every dollar of
relief extended. 1t also gave compari-
sons which indicated a very large per-
centage Of waste in all public activities
The lessons, however. seem hard for
the people to learn. Even actual demon
stfation fails to last long in the public
mind.
More than 80 years ago party OF
enthusiasts determined to break up a
political ring in a Northern Michigan
county and succeeded in getting control
of the principal offices. The budget was
reduced to half it's previous total and
every phase of government was cared
for more efficiently. One would natural
ly expect such a record would be ap-
preciated by the taxpayers, but 1t was
not. True, the ring was broken and its
members scattered over the country. but
partisanship ruled the next election and
since then the former offices have been
rotating with little show of change, save
as Father Time has removed one oc-
casionally. OF course, taxation again has
reached new records.
Taxes will never be reduced by add
ing to the machinery Of government

before you when visiting. tasted my
fnst Japanese persimmons with cream
one day last week at the klwanis
luncheon. Persimnons have always
been a mighty fine morsel but instead
of serving them with sugar and cream,
l always ate them with sprinkling of
sand and pine straw battered into
them, for real died in the wool crack
er always insisted upon the native per-
! simmon where you have to shake the
tree to make the ripe ones fall to the
ground.
I always scorned the japanese variety,
and looked upon them as a sort Of
Burbanks impostor, but it seems that
Walker Willis, Davis Yonge and a few
others around here one day had more
honest-to- goodness cream then they
knew what to do with, and tried 1t on
some Japanese persimmons just to see
what would happen.
You can never really appreciate how
delicious this combination of persimmon,
sugar and cream is without trying 1t
yourself. You probably feel like I did,
that persimmons should be eaten at
night while out 'possum hunting, but you
are wrong. 1t is a table dish, and one
that most surely will become nationally
popular.
The commercial possibilities Of the
persimmon are practically unlimited.
This section of Florida will produce
them in abundance, and 1t is merely a
matter of letting the world know about
them until thousands of acres will be
planted to these trees to supply the de-
n1and. The fruit can be picked while
green and kept for several weeks before
ready to eat, and this makes it pos
sible to ship the persinlmons to any
part of the country.
Very possibly there are many resi-
dents Of Pensacola and vicinity who
have never tasted the japanese persim-
mon served with sugar and cream.
They have something coming to them.
One does not have to recall many
years to the time when grapefruit was
considered unfit for eating, and now 1t
is the national breakfast dish. The
