THE GASOLINE TAX AMEND
MENT.
minneapolis Journal.)

The proposed gasoline tax amend
ment to the Constitution of Mime
sofa will be Number One" on the
list of amendments to be submitted
to the people in November. 1t
promises to generate lively debate.
There is one misunderstanding
that should be cleared away. 1t
should be made plain that the
amendment is not one that imposes
tax on gasoline, or one that i'm
powers the Legislature to impose
such tax. The Legislature already
has that power. The sole purpose
of the amendment is to permit the
proceeds of such tax, when i'm
posed, to be diverted directly to the
building and maintenance of State
highways.
Without such an amendment, the
Legislature might impose gasoline
tax, but the proceeds would go into
the general fund.- and could not be
used for road work at all.
If Minnesota, following the lead
of three-fourths of the States, is to
collect a gallon tax on gasoline, GER
tainly the proceeds ought to be used
for good roads and for nothing else.
But this cannot be done, unless the
amendment is adopted.
However, the advisability of a
gasoline tax is bound to be dis
cussed, in connection with the
amendment debate. 1t has num-
Der of strong points in it's favor:
It is adjusted to comparative
usage of the roads, in respect to
both mileage and weight. Thus it
is fair as between those who pay it.
The driver who travels most, will
pay most. The vehicle that weighs
most and wears the roads most, will
pay most.
1t will bring in a revenue from
visiting tourists who now use our
roads and pay nothing for the
privilege. From this source it is
estimated that a two-cent tax would
bring half a million dollars a year
enough to pay quite mainten-
ance bill.
1t can be easily and painlessly
collected. A few large companies will
advance it on the basis of their i'm
portations of gasoline into the State
The cost of checking their books
would be very small. The COM
panies would then collect the tax
from the consumers at the filling
stations in dimes and nickles when
ever tanks were filled.
1t will enable the State Highway
Commissioner to push to earlier
completion the hard-surfacing of
heavily travelled roads and the gray
cling of those less used.
The chief objection one hears, is
the natural one to creating an addi-
tional tax in these days of heavy
taxation. But it must be remem-
bered that owners of motor vehicles
in Minnesota are today paying small
err taxes than the average through
out the Union. The average motor
vehicle tax in Minnesota this year
is $16.44; the average in the United
States is $20.35.
The addition of a two-cent gas
tax would probably do no more than
equalize this difference. There will
be considerable sentiment, no doubt,
in favor of reducing the vehicle tax,
if a gasoline tax is imposed. Per-
haps this could be done. That
question, however, is entirely up to
the next Legislature. The present
need is to pass the amendment in
November, so as to give the Legis-
lature the chance to handle the mat
ter intelligently and for the general

A Suggestion


To Editor kennebec Journal:
Dear SIR
Being a daily reader OF your valu-
able paper l wish space for a few
lines IN regard to fire protection for
the towns of Farmingdale and
Randolph. Now when either of
these towns have a call for their
fire department, which Is very eff
ficient, and do very good service
under the conditions that they have
to work with, the majority of the
members of both departments are
employed in the shoe factories and
of course have to run a long dis
lance to their fire stations and haul
their hose wagons and 1000 feet OF
hose through streets that are al
most impossible at times because
of mud and snow. Now what / am
coming at is this: would 1t not be
better for both towns to come to
some agreement with the City of
Gardiner to take over the fire
protection of these towns? Gar
diner is well equipped with new
pumps and chemical to take care
OF them. The towns would get bet
ter protection and better insurance
rates. | would like to hear from
citnzens of Goth towns in regard

Weak. kneed Criminal Law

IN. L. herald and Iribune)
If We admit the force of Secretary
Hughes observation that the public is
too much disposed to regard GRIM
inal trials with indulgent curiosity,
and that it shares in the blame for
the lax enforcement of the law. the
main responsibility lies elsewhere.
Criminal processes are too dilatory,
juries are too indulgent. judges are
to lenient in sentences" The public
is helpless to correct these defects to
which Mr.. Hughes points an accusing
finger.
The grave concern expressed in his
speech to the National Institute OF So
cial Sciences over the deficiency of ad-
ministration of the criminal law re-
fleets the feeling of the leaders of the
legal profession. The most hopeful
remark in his review of the situation
is the assurance that the bar associa-
tions are giving earnest attention to
the inadequacy of the existing crirni-
nal processes. 1t Is through the COM
bined pressure of lawyers, who are
most conversant with legal shertcom-
ings and in the best position to work
for their correction, that remedial
measures are likely to be adopted.
One specific change Of importance
IA tHC AuiCS VI cNlucHCG Is SuKReSIG0
by Mr.. Hughes. He questions whether
the defendants privilege against self
discrimination should be maintained.
He doubts that the interests of justice
demand the continuance of this privi-
lege, peculiar to the common law and
statutes derived therefrom. The SUI
preme Court has held that it does not
come within the due process Of law re-
juirement of the Constitution. It is
too often an avenue of escape for
criminals who would be convicted I'M
der any system of Jurisprudence that
did not bar the most direct evidence of
guilt.
In comparison with the British
courts most Of the American tribunals
lack vigor and decision. Subterfuge,
evasion and delay are too much toler-
ated. The bar associations might well
consider the attitude of some of the
Practitioners of criminal law. who
seem to regard client as a conner
ciai asset TO be preserved to their profit
through long drawn out trials. So
long as bench and bar lend counte-
nance to dilatory and obstruetionist
tactics. the laxity of law enforcement
which Mr.. Hughes reprehends SO forci-
bly, will persist.

Editorial Comment
Courageous Republicans
IN Y TimeSl


President Coolidge's veto of the
Bonus bill was admitted even by his
enemies and it's friends to be an act
of great courage. But consider the
greater courage of the thirty Repub-
lican Senators who voted to over
ride his veto and so made the bill
law. They had to face the ordeal
of standing up and repudiating
their own President. That took
courage. They had to confess that
the Republican Party is shattered
and leaderless organization. That
took courage. They had to rise and
present to their Democratic OPP
ponents an issue and a cry which
will resound to the hurt Of the Re-
publicans all through the Presiden-
tial election. That took courage.
They were called upon to acknowl-
edge publicly, what has before been
known only in private, that they
dislike the President, that they do
not mean to support him honestly,
and that they would witness his de-
feat next November without a tear.
That took courage. The whole group
of them, from Curtis to Lodge and
Warren, ought to be presented with
a special medal for bravery.
Nor did their courage stop with
the manifestations just cited. They
boldly took a stand that logically
means the defeat of tax revision and
the end of the hope of a reduction
of tax burdens. On an already
threatened deficit they piled an ad-
ditional s146,0O0 900. Under the
guise of passing an insurance bill
for veterans. they opened, as they
we'll knew, a door through which
the triumphant lobbyists for the
bonus will press instantly with de-
mands for larger payments in cash.
Instead of making an end of the
bonus in our politics, they made
sure that it will continue there in
a still more mischief breeding form.
While praising courage, do not for
get to give a high place to that of
these Republican Senators who
could face such dread consequences
without blenching. $50

GOOD WILL At HAND"

Good will Is at hand; are we to
accept 1t and make use Of it2 This Is
an important question and more Of
our happiness is involved than many
realize. There are formidable inn
pediments to acceptance; suspicion,
jealousy, prejudice and passion. There
IS punishment for those who persist
in the atmosphere of ill will, punish
ment self-inflicted.
In his address to the annual con-
vention of the Episcopal Churches of
the Diocese of Maine at Portland,
this week. Bishop Brewster advocat-
ed spirit of unity in all Christian
churches. declaring: "At once we
must see how repugnant to this
principle Is that ugly spirit of Sec
tartan intolerance which we see lift
ing it's head in our land and noisily
proclaiming itself, with divers fam
tastic accomplishments, as the only
true Americanism. But on the other
hand we must be thankful for the
growth of the method of conference
between men who differ, taking the
place of the spirit of controversy"
Good doctrine for heather or Chris
tian. and one the latter is in duty
bound to accept. Conference that
leads to better understanding of the
others viewpoint. Differ we will
II we develop. but 1t should be in the
spirit of conference to arrive at bet
ter understanding than in the spirit
Of controversy to sharpen the lines
of division.
OF understanding the philosopher,
Locke wrote: THE improvement Of
the understanding is for two ends:
first. for our own increase of know
ledge; secondly, TO enable us to de-
liver and make out that knowledge
to others
Those associated in stress or peril
arrive at understanding and respect
and kind regard for one another. The
experiences of the boys in the
trenches are recent witnesses to this
And we may arrive at it II we go
about 1t in the spirit of good will.
This is impressively and eloquently
emphasized in the address by the
pastor of a Winthrop Church on the
subject Good Will At Hand" report
of which appears in another column.
1t will amply repay reading and
merits profound consideration.
