believe that we should stop borrow
Ing money and should look forward
to the day when the state will be free
from debt. AS for our road program,
1t can be carried forward with rea-
sonable dispatch without additional
bonds.
I'VE have made excellent progress
on road construction but must not
expect to proceed too rapidly. I do
not believe that we should bond the
so called permanent portion of our
roads for there Is no such thing as a
permanent road. Every part wears
out in time. We should not lead
ourselves into a false position.
"All the activities Of the state can
be properly carried on with the
states present income and any in
crease Of the tax burden either IN
the rate of taxation or in It's form or
method is not warranted. There is
every reason why the State of Maine
should follow the excellent example
of the United States government and
actually lower its taxes during the
coming fiscal years. 1t can and
should be done.
RailroadSTaxes
"We would all like to have lower
upon an active campaign to secure
them. In this they are supported by
a strong combination of newspapers
and banking interests. Our principal
Maine railroad. the Maine Central, is
increasing Its freight rates and cur
failing it's passenger service. Under
the new schedules and classifications
in the Eastern Rate Investigation
hearing, conditional burdens are to
be placed on Maine shippers. Even
II railroad taxes were reduced no as
surance Is given that freight rates
would be lowered or passenger serv-
ice restored.
IF you lower the taxes OF one
group, such as the railroads, you
either must increase those of other
groups or reduce your expenditures.
Unless there can be gradual all
round reduction of taxes, am oppos-
ed to making any change at the pres
ent time, for the householder and the
farmer are entitled to as much con-
sideration as the railroads. Every
well Informed citizen appreciates the
need OF proper railroad service, to
furnish which the railroads must be
accorded every proper consideration,
and l am glad to see that the Maine
Central Railroad is gradually getting
on a dividend basis. If railroad tax
es are lowered either the state must
cut down its expenses or other prop
erty must be called upon to make Up
the loss in revenue to the state by
an increase in existing taxes or
through the imposition Of new ones.
IF the railroads should succeed in
securing lower taxes based. in part
on net income, 1t would be necessary
for them to adopt some system Of
bookkeeping that would not be pre-
judicial to the public interest.
unless this was done the door
would be left open to abuses and net
income might vary according to the
Interpretation Of railroad accountants
There would need be some Limitation
placed on deductible items. Probably
the bookkeeping requirements impos-
ed by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission would cover most of these
but they. all should he
looked into and understood before
any change is made.

tax on gross earnings is 'unsciea-

or other property must be called up
on to make up the loss In revenue to
the State by an increase In existing
taxes or through the imposition Of
new ones"
In regard to the first proposition.
Governor Baxter pointed out that
the debt Of Maine Is well within rea-
son and today Is $14,545.300.
II hope 1t will not be increased for
the Pay as you go principle is sound

believe that IL the state announced
that 1t intended to live within its In
come and was to borrow no more
money, its action would have a
wholesome influence upon our cities
and towns and also would serve as n
warning to our citizens that they too
should live within their incomes.

sued they should never be for a long
err period than 20 years, and none

is well to remind ourselves that once
debts are incurred somebody must
pay them. and interest runs rapidly
into large figures. Future genera
tons will have their own problems
to meet, problems as acute as our
own, and except in grave emergen-
cies such as war or like catastrn-
phies, the present generation has no
right to place q mortgage upon tile

Following lobster stew supper.
the Christmas tree was the center
of attraction and Santa himself was
there to distribute the gifts from the

the III cent price limit was adhered
to and the opening of the bundles
was an event that caused no little
merriment. Prizes were awarded in
the cross word puzzle guessing con-
test and for other stunts which COM

they might weigh accurately at the
