HOOD STEAM NOT
SEEN AT PARKDALE

Mark Weygandt and other Hood
River folks say they noted no unusual
sights about Mount Hood Saturday af-
ternoon. although the weather was ex-
ceedingly clear and the peak attracted
more than usual attention for the fact
that it has been veiled by clouds so
much within the past two months.
Most of the citizens of the Upper Val
ley district are prone to scout the an
nouncement of l.. f. Pridemore, who
says he saw column of steam 200
feet high ascending from the old crater
on the south side of the peak.

county is third on the list. The vast sum
which the state secures from these three coun-
ties in income tax is the saving feature of state
financing.
Kenosha wants to pay to the state all the
money that the state should eQuitably receive
from it but the three great manufacturing cen
ters of the state do not desire to take upon
themselves the burden of state support with
out fully recognizing just what effect the TAX
ing of this burden is going to have. The con-
tribution of the big industrial companies of
Racine, Kenosha and Milwaukee to the state
has brought an itching palm on the part of
some of the state officials. They see that they
have received much and they seek the way of
securing more. The taking away of the per-
sonal property offset would mean little in most
of the counties of Wisconsin. It is well known
that one Kenosha industry in one year paid
more to the state as income tax than was paid
in over forty counties combined What mat
ter is it to such counties whether there is per-
sonal property offset or not The amount paid
is so ptifully small that it counts for practical
ly nothing in the amount the state needs for
it's upkeep.
The goose has laid the golden egg in these
OAAA &C OOuuLlSS IOT Tile SLaL6 ana the SCSC0 has
gone away year after year with it's egg basket
filled. The arguments for and against the
personal property offset have been threshed
out in Wisconsin, but before the county of Ke-
nosha goes on record as officially endorsing such
legislation there should be the fullest hearing
The matter should not be decided on the read
ing of letter sent out by one close to the tax
commission and close to an administration
which has made this mulcting of the industrial
communities it's first care in government
Kenosha wants to foster great industrial
plants in order that they may provide work
for its people, that they may pay their full
share for the upkeep of the city, county and
state government but that they may pay it
without the companies being forced to give up
competition with the companies of other states
whose state governments are more thoughtful
of the value of industries developed to their
fullest efficiency.
