Following the receipt Of protests

Davis, chairman Of the emergency
radio tax committee, organized "a

issued q statement covering the
chief arguments advanced by the
public against the contemplated
levy.
The National Association Of

youths interested In radio, farmerg
associations, dealers in wireless
equipment, manufacturers, jobhers
and welfare and charity organize

ton in the fight.
Immediate, spontaneous hos
tility Of the public has been ex-
pressed by letters, kilograms and
editorials throughout the country :.
said Davis. There has been no
favorable expression Of opinion In
regard to the radio tax. The only
argumnet advanced for the tax II
that the money must be raised
somehow.
Nothing but harm can result
from the tax-shifting proposed by
the Senate Commute, whereby 9
certain tax Of $4,000, 900 is lifted
from beverages and q certain tax Of
$13 900 900 is lifted from candy, to
be replaced by an uncertain tax Of

|ROmping Around
Radio Dial
BY Listner-In-

Our severest critic turned up yes
terday in George A. Burton. 1900
Fourteenth street.
Mr.. Burton and three Of his
friends didn't like what we said
about Roxy's program Sunday
night and told US 80 In no uncertain
manner.
I'm our opinion" the Burton
letter states. land we know it is
Just as good as yours, we thought
Sunday nights program was one Of
the best ever put ON by Roxy"
Our critic presumes to think that
we are "sore at Roxy" because of
the little tilt" of a few weeks ago,
and accuses US Of manufacturing
the episode which we stated we
heard in connection with one IT the
Sunday night programs.
TT was only about q week ago"
the letter continues, that you called
somebody down for criticising the
radio artists, stating they were do
ing this for the people. without pay
and doing the very best possible.
Do you remember writing that?"'
Differences Of Opinion.
The letter then recommends that
II we can't say something nice about
each and every artist, we should
say nothing at all.
Differences OF opinion rule the
world. We are glad that Mr.. Bur.
ton enjoyed Roxy's program, but
as we have said, I'VE felt that the
Capitol Theater manager might have
done much better in the execution
Of his theme.
As for being 'sore" at Roxy, we
believe It would be well nigh i'm
possible for anyone to be sore al
man Of Roxy's type. We admire
Roxy very much, for his generous
ness in giving the services Of his
gang to the country's radio audience
and for his splendid unselfishness
In his work in behalf Of thu
hospitalled service men.
But when he steps into the role
Of impressario and fails to deliver
as we know he Is capable Of de
livering, we do not hesitate to write
our thoughts.
AS for Mr.. Buttons second point
regarding the criticism Of radio
artists, we do feel that inasmuch al
the broadcasters receive no actua
pay for their services they are en-
titled to whatever applause theil
performances rate.
We have never been able Il
understand just how much ar
artist profits by a bundle Of 9
thousand or SO letters except FOL
the personal qualification he re
ceives from them, but at present
the letters constitute our only pay
ment.
On the other hand we can hold
no brief for those listeners whC
have q stack Of postcards on theil
tables and write appreciative cards
to every performer they hear re
CARELESS Of the extent to which the
performance is appreciated.
Mr.. Burton then suggests saying
only nice things about the artists.

ing 1921 and 1922 loans, leaving a
total of sl,l53,O6974 on the princi-
pal unpaid.
The territory under the jurisdic.
ton of the Seed Loan Office com
prises the states of North and South
Dakota, Montana. Idaho and Wash
ington and G6.5 percent Of the prin-
cipal on outstanding accounts has
been collected according to l.. f.
White. Administrative Officer in
charge.
The amount Of loans made in 1921
was 1887 ,4O7.20 and Of this sl,237,-
855.l7 or 63,2 percent Of the prin-
cipal has been collected. The 1929
loan amounted to $1,480, 1868 and
of this $l,O46,588.00 or II percent
has been collected.
Approximately 5000 of the $4,000
accounts remain unpaid. The De-
partment points out that while it
''ti' 'c"' ItIIcHI WIN DOT
rowers in 1923 because of the I'M
favorable crops, this year there will
be a real effort made to clean up
the obligations, the present crop
prospects being such as to warrant
for large collections.
1t is also pointed out that while col
ectIons were not greatly forced last
year, there was considerable atten-
ton given to the matter of security
Tor the extended loans, and their
collection is therefore comparatively
better assured.
According to Mr.. White. it is the
1esire Of the Department to have
.hese loans paid up by the end of
his year and to accomplish this
purpose the office will conduct an
intensive collection campaign. Ar
'angements have been made to place
men in the collection fields of the
erritory in which the loans were
made, shortly after harvest begins.
