100000 The federal government has
trimmed its debt since the war, but
bond issues of cities, counties and
states shove the total ever higher.
You are always paying taxes,
every day, every week.
Usually you don't know when you
are paying them.
When you buy cigaret you pay
three tenths of cent in taxes. The
total of all these three-tenths of a

million dollars year
You pay taxes indirectly when you
buy steak at the butcher shop

SPAIN SEETHES

The situation in Spain is by no

circles wish the outside world to be-

Both the Spanish Constitutional
opposition and Republican party con

TO be syndicalistic. 1t is obvious not
directed against the life of General
Rivera. the Spanish premier, and
military dictator, as ne is in Moroc-

French secret service officials,
however, are convinced that the Span

Principal reason for this increase
is in the sale Of bonds. Local and
state governments have trebled their
bonded Indebtedness since 1912.
1t is so easy to finance public
project by bond issue. But every
building built that way is paid for
twice. paid for once in bond inter-
est. once in retiring the principal.

ed by fire is gone forever and
the nation is that much poorer.
Estimating a human life by the
wages it would earn life comes
terribly high. Any one of the
$4,000 lives destroyed annually
by fire may be worth tens of
thousands of dollars. So with
property.
Insurance only spreads and
equalizes fire or death losses, so
that the few do not go bankrupt
while the many go unscathed.
Most of the $5O0,0OO,00O annual
fire losses of the United States
are preventable. They need new
err occur. If normal business and
homelife could have the proper
ton of that sum that is paid out
for preventable fires every year
the United States would soon
hardly know itself in it's new era
of decorum and prosperity.
Being a firebug nation is hard
ly decent. The majority of fires
are preventable. It's time for
our country to save property
that is utterly, foolishly wasted,
that is so wrongfuily said to be
: covered by insurance. = The
