The laying of taxes is always a
delicate and vexatious subject. There
is natural reluctance to the direct
extraction of money for public pur-
poses. The decree has been promIl-
gated that taxes must be lowered.
We know the desirability of reduc-
ing the cost of government but those
entrusted with responsibility WILDE
obliged to approach the subject IN
full recognition of the constantly in
creasing demands for educational fa-
cilities and opportunities. At what
ever cost and sacrifice we must pro-
vide adequate schools for the bows
and girls of Alabama, There are
numerous other functions of govern
ment which must be adequately aad
properly administered. We all want
to pay as little taxes as possible.
That is human nature. 1t is our duty
to reduce waste in administration to
a minimum. Strict economy in pub
lie expenses is good government and
true democracy. The application OF
this principle. however. should not
lead to that extreme action which
would cripple the progressive and
sound activities of state government.
Extremes begets limitations. eve n.

distractions for itself"
