A DISGUISED TAX

The proposal for the stamping of
federal number on automobile
engines and bodies as a supposed
safeguard against theft, the cost
being assessed at two dollars, to
be collected from each auto-owner
is OF course merely another auto
tax in disguise. Despite the asser-
ton that it will protect owners ust
the same as they once protected
themselves by branding their cat
tie and horses, there is no assur-
ance whatever that the stamping of
another number on machines
would deter thieves any more than
the stamping Of the original num-
bers by the makers, which are
made part of the state license
list.
The bOotlegging field has shown
that the determined lawbreaker is
no more afraid of breaking a fed
eral law than any other 1t used
to be that a man inclined toward
crime fiOuted the laws of the towns
and cities and even the state. but
stopped with a sudden jolt before
breaking one of Uncle Sans laws.
That time has passed. and today
the man bent upon breaking law
doesn't show any more respect for
federal law than he does one
enacted by the safe. We can see
nothing to the proposed auto mum
Der law but another chance to
gOuge auto owners.-HaZen Star.

A "FULL CREW" LAW FOR
FARMERS

There is something more than
satire in the joker full crew"
farm bin recommended for passage
by the agricultural committee OF
the lower house OF the Minnesota
Legislature. The bill paraphrases
the full crew" bill sought in Min
nesota by railroad workers and
applies its terms 10 the operation
Of a farm. requiring the farmer To-
have one mixer for each six cows
or fraction thereof and a herds
man to watch the herd, fixes farm
wages at the average of the wage
of plumbers, bricklayers, plaster
ers and carpenters, and requires
the farmer to furnish a bond to
guarantee that neither he nor his
employees Will work more than six
days II week and will conform to
other requirements of the law.
This bit of righteousness brings
out in bold relief the absurdity of
some of the labor laws that have
been passed and others that are
proposed. This refers to laws tina;
are aimed not to protect the worker
in his right to do an honest days
work for a fair return. but to limii
by law as far as possible the ply
steal and mental effort he will be
required to make for Il maximum
Of wages and by creating two or
three or more jobs where one
ought to grow.
1t is just as logical to require a
farmer to hire one farmland for
each 40 acres, as it is to tell a rail
road the number Of employees to
whom il must give wages and
transportation in the operation of
a train.
Society has every right to pro-
tect the worker against being over
worked Or underpaid. 1t certainly
has no right, however. to tell the
employer how many men he mus.
hire to do Il specific job. 1t is his
business to determine how we'll
and how quickly he wants that JON
done and the workers business to
do an honest days work. leaving
the management of the business to
the employer
1T is the right of labor to be
selfish in its efforts at Self-hetter-
ment and to obtain all that is pos
sible by way of wages and conces-
sions from the employer. 1t is not,
however, the duty of society to
give that selfishness the force of
law as is done in full crew" legis-
alton and similar enactments. If
the theory of the full crew. law
were carried out to its ultimate
conclusion it would lead to absurd
ity indeed.
The farm legislation quoted is as
sound economically as the full
crew. railroad bill. 1t probably
would result in Il price of zoe Il
quart for milk and other farm
prices in keeping. This may not
he the concern of labor. but it Ger
tainly is the concern of society. If
| the worker chooses to do half Il
days work for a days pay, it is
his job to try and collect the wage.
but certainly it is not the obliga-
ton OF society to legislate him in
! to that dishonest position. - Chi

ONE FORGOTTEN

An eye for an eye and a tooth
for TOOTH is an old. old maxim
born in the old Mosaic law, but
down through the ages it has
lasted. the vengeance rule invok-
ed wherever the primal passions
OF mankind have weakened as they
have today.
BY the very manner of Martin
Tabert's death comes the cry for
vengeance upon the man, already
named in a criminal indictment,
for his death. A nation. which
has prided itself upon it's own
humanity. has paused aghast at the
revelations each days investiga-
tons brings forth. The world has
learned the story of Florida's penal
camp horror and felt. almost as
with the doomed lad. the cruel
sting of the defending lash.
In the clamor Of the world for
justice, in the very sympathy for
Tabert's dripping wounds there
has been one forgotten, unmen-
toned almost in the tales that have
been told. In a farm house near
Munich, N. d.. today sits woman
bearing upon her bowed shoulders
the blunt of the sorrow burden
that came with Martin Tabert's
passing.
She is Martin Tabert's mother.
The mercy Of eternity came at
last to end the boys pain. In the
heat Of the mother there are scars
that even time itself can never
heal.--Elgin News.
