In generations to come, men and
governments more nearly civilized
will allow no children to develop
stunted bodies and deformed minds
in city slums. They will fly to
the high lands of Nevada, New
Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, to all
parts of tho American mountain
paradise of health and beauty.
There they will develop into real
men and women. The United
States will breed it's own strong
people, no longer depending on Eu-
rope as it does now for constant
supplies of fresh blood.
Our mountains will supply the
fresh blood, and men grown there
will supply the workers, not han
,dlers of picks and shovels, but
workers with brains and machines.
The bill to raise the pay of hard
working post Office employees may
be defeated because somebody is
accused of trying to get it through
by bribery.
What of that? Thousands of
underpaid postal employees know
nothing about the bribery, and had
nothing to do with it. The bribery
story sounds rather fishy.
The only question for Congress
to decide is whether or not the
men that do the hard work in the
post office DESERVE decent pay,
whether or not Uncle Sam should
set a good example, paying his
servants properly, or a mean,
stingy, unworthy example, cheat
ing his own employees that ne may
keep down the taxes of rich men.
THAT'S THE REAL {. y.,-.

JOKER REVEALED
IN TAX MEASURE
Governor Expected to Veto
Real Estate Bill

House Bill 14l, providing for de-
auction Of appraised value of real
estate from amount due on taxable
contracts involving sale of such real
estate, probably will be vetoed by
Governor Jackson, it was learned
today. Only the residue would be
taxable, under the bill.
The Senate passed the bill Friday.
A motion for reconsideration was
offered Immediately 1t was found
proponents of the bill had advised
some Senators the State tax board
favored the bill. Investigation
showed the tax board against it.
Conferences this morning between
John j. Brown OF the tax board and
Attorney General Arthur l.. Gilliom
were believed to be for the purpose
OF exposing the "joker'' in the bill.
1t was said that if the bill was
signed, nearly all real estate con-
tracts would be taken off the tax
duplicates.
