Browns Boy digging those holes for?
But Farmer Browns Boy didn't tell
them. He didn't tell them for one
very good reasoR-he didn't know
that they wanted to know. He just
kept right on digging holes. They
were not very big holes. and they
were not very deep holes. Besides
each hole he threw up a little pile
of earth. 1t was hard work to dig
so many holes and every once in a

didn't stop whistling. When Farmer

THE BURDEN OF
GOVERNMENT

The financial burden OF government
has become increasingly heavy In re-
cent years. II has, at times. reached
the point of oppression The Federal
tax of 1920 aggregated more than Ave
and one-half billion dollars. This
year. after strenuous efforts 10 reduce
the wartime peak. the total still ex.
ceeds three billion dollars-a sum
far greater THAI the entire burden OF
funded debt accumulated as a result
OF the Civil War. State and local
taxes have increased at an even
greater rate. Taxation has become
more than a problem; 1t is a threat
OF impending disaster.
Nor is the burden OF government
limited to taxation. We are Cypress.
ed by multiplicity of restrictive
laws and administrative regulations.
II is estimated that there are over
two million laws and ordinances In
the records Of nation. states and mu-
inequalities. One. adult person out
OF every twenty engaged in business
or industry Is government official.

In the face of this record, despite
the general recognition OF the over:
whelming burden OF government. we
find ourselves constantly waging a
defensive battle against plans and
programs which would transfer still
gre@tef duties to government. which
would Hamper individual initiative

Be Glad You're Not in Europe
By Erwin Greer

Seventy-five cents a gallon for
gasoline; no parking permitted in
the downtown districts; speed
limit of twenty miles an hour; heavy
fines passed out to the chappies who
exceed this limit an5 license fee of
one hundred and twenty-five dollars
year tackled on an automobile.
Be glad, then, that you're not liv-
ing i'm Europe.
And it3s small wonder that there
are very few traffic accidents in
London, and that for this great city
the total deaths chargeable to traffic
accidents is less in a year than in an
American city in a single month.
For in London all traffic moves at
twenty miles per hour, every one
takes his time, there is absolutely no
parking in the downtown district,
and when some youth. gets bit
reckless and hits 'er up he is almost
certain of instant arrest and a very
heavy fine.
The one great lesson that. London
has to teach American motorists is
The value of great patience; in bust
ness life, and of eliminating. all the
hurry and haste not absolutely
necessary; but for this one lesson,
America can teach London many,
many things about. every angle Of
motoring.
For instance, there are no oil sta
tions, as I'VE know them, in the
whole of England, with the excep-
ton of few that have been recently
installed by Americans. These will
have to change the habits of ma
ton before they become popular,
for in England everyone that owns a
car carries his gasoline in two
gallon can in the tonneau (yep, they
still call 'em tonneaus"' over there)
of his car.
Compressed air. pumps at garages
are practically unknown If tire
goes flat why the old ha nd and foot
pumps-together with lot OF elbow
grease-pumps it up again. The
champions in this line can pump up
tire in less than. ten minutes.
Laugh that off!
An import duty of one-third of
the cost of the car is charged on
every ear brought into England ana
for every spare part of an imported
car This gives rise to endless red
tape and delays, for the owner of
foreign car must get each spare part
approved by three separate custom
house officials before he can install
il on his car.
The moral of this tale is; America
first.
The woman who is ab4a to support
a husband can do without one.

SIT kIGHT TALKS

Aunt Emmy and Maud we're talking

1T is invested in sound mortgages.

ciers. They know what securities are
good and what are Questionable. SO
they invest the banks funds-that Is.

posEtors-in the best securities in

selves?"
'We could II we knew as much
about investments as the bank does.
Bankers are not likely to make the
mistakes made by the ordinary person.
They are not deceived. by impressive
looking stock certificates, plausible

OF interest they get may be moderate
their money is far safer than II would
be II 1t were invested less skillfully."
Surely. though. 1t must be possible
to get more than per cent on your
money and yet be SAFE" Maud said.
1T is under certain conditions"
Aunt Emmy agreed. THE trouble liz
that so few people are frank about
their money matters with men who
really can be trusted for advice. They
would rather take the advice of a
glib stock salesman: No matter how
small sum person is thinking OF
investing, advice should be sought
from trust company or bank. Wo-
men especially don't seem to realize
this.
1.-THE. savings bank is always safe.
1t is good plan to keep putting mon
ey in the savings bank. until you have
a good sum. Then withdraw part and
invest it in some security paying d
higher rate OF interest. But be sure
to seek good advice before you buy.
In this way you can always have some
cash on hand in the bank. yet gradual
ly convert most of your savings into
high, grade securities" - ANNE B.

A Live Issue.

The vice president of large pub
lie utility says that taxation5is a
live. issue. 1T seems a live issue for
the big explorations, but it is no less
so for the smallest taxpayer.
One-seventh of the income of the
American people now goes =to taxes.
The people are paying three times as
much per. capita in taxes as they
did in 1912-an Increase of 300 pes
cent in twelve years.
These are facts that should be re-
membered when the Legislature cons
venes. Most legislation increases
taxes. Few laws are enacted which
do not. impose added expense Upon
the taxpayer. Few laws carrying
tax levies are. ever repealed. Thus
the. tax burden mounts
There seems to be little prospect
of lowering. taxes any appreciable
amount except through making taxa
bic the $32,O00,000,J00 invested in
securities, the income from which
is exempt from federal taxes.
But this. is the least of the evil.
1t has been determined that five
sixths' of the .tax-free securities are
issued. by cities; counties and other
local governments. Thus. capital
that should be invested in taxable
property does not bear its share of
the expense of government.
The. one. big. problem Of all gov
ernment, whether federal, state,
county or municipal, it to reduce ex-
penditures and increase receipts:
Economy in government, which
means cutting down expenses, con
be accomplished. only by curtailing
legislation and checking the in
crease of .tax-exempt securities,
which are responsible for the moant-
ing public debt
The federal government. can not
tax the incomes derived from
state, municipal. and other local Sc
curities, without amending the con-
stitution. 1t would require long
time to add such a provision to the
constitution. but such action would
make local securities less inviting,
even if states did not make then,
taxable.-Ex.

1t is known here that Kellogg was

THE OUTSTANDING event in

the breaking down Of the alooGness
Of .the United States with regard to
European. politics through the
agreement concluded in Paris for
The operation of the Dawes plan.

States will receive a percentage of
the reparations payments made Ger
many and is bound, IN the view of
European statesmen, to assist in any
effort, armed or otherwise, to
compel Germany to pay in the event
that. nation breaks down economically
and defaults. Secretary Hughes
holds that the Paris agreement is not
a treaty and does not require ratifi-
cation by the Senate, but strenuous
objections at the Capitol to that
point Of view would not be surpris-
ing.

Confidence.

Some periods of business depfes-
sion in this country have been called
purely psychological" And there
have been occasions when boom
times have been termed a "psycholo-
gical" condition.
Whether psychological" or what
not, when business is good people
have confidence in the future and are
willing to take risks shat they would
not otherwise take.
Confidence is the very heart of
American business, down to the
smallest transaction.
Wh@ people deposit money in a.
bank, they have confidence in the in
stitutian and believe that it will be
able to pay whenever the money is
demanded
When one man accepts a check
from another, he has confidence in
the man with whom he is dealing.
With confidence gone, the whole
business structure of the country
crashes to earth.
Confidence moves mountains:
drives away pessimlsm; eniarges the.
vision of the future: 1t is the
first ingredient of progress.-Ex.

January bill arrives. =
