FUTILE TAX TALK
In ID

Much futile tax talk is current. 10
the effect that the right kind of eff
Gent county administration, or state
administration, might reduce taxes 25
to 70 per cent. Such talk is mere pas
time for the idle. Any taxpayer or
talker interested in even the smallest
degree a readily understand with
even superficial study, that only a
very small reduction in taxes is DOS
sible for several years.
Nose" Alexander talks about a re-
auction of z per CEN in taxes should
the democrats capture the state can't
tol November 7th. This in spite of
the fact that the adjustment of every
state office at Boise would not affect
the total tax even Is per cent.
Some local people speak of a so per
cent reduction in Power county. when
as a matter of fact the abolition of
every office at the court house would
not decrease the total tax 20 per cent.
Our present taxes are the growth
of years. 1t will take another span of
years to reduce them. Reduction will
come through the reduction of bond
issues outstanding, reduction in inter-
est charges, reduction in operation ex-
pense of schools, reduction in high
way and road taxes, and possible con-
solidation of offices. There are GER
tain fixed expenses of government to-
day that cannot be avoided, as they
take the form of a prior claim to all
personal property and real estate.
Since we have voted thousands of dol
lars Of bond issues, sold the bonds,
and contracted to pay for them and
keep the interest up, we must meet
our obligation.
We insist on the best of school ia
cilities and they most certainly cost
dearly. We must have good roads,
good streets, county agents and eff
Gent officers, so we must pay for
them.
The reduction of taxes is a personal
obligation that every taxpayer must
face individually as well as collective

of roads. the cost of various improve

t. serious problem. in connection

THE BONUS BILL
A WORRY

Despite the fact that about half the
people r against any such measure
as the bonus bill, there are many in
controvertible arguments for it. One
outstanding fact is that it is taking
congress infinitely longer to vote the
veterans their reward than it took
to vote them into service through the
CONSUMPTION bill.
The CONSUMPTION bill concerned,
chiefly the men under thirty who
would have to stand the gaff on the
firing line The bonus bill concerns
chiefly the fellow over thirty who will
have to stand the gaff of high taxa
