VETO IMPOSES BURDEN UPON SMALLER
TAXPAYERS
Wyoming Tribune)

" Dp"''J ~
The State of Wyoming is running behind'' financially,
has been running behind for several years and as a result is
Sin the red' approximately three quarters of a million dollars.
The recent legislature, taking cognizance of this situation and
recognizing the economic impractcabhity of permitting it to
continue, took steps to correct it through enactment of House
Bill 2l7, which authorized the State board of equalization
to levy a tax of one-quarter of one mill annually to provide
funds with which to pay off the dificit. Governor Ross vetoed
the act and by this action made it impossible to begin within the
next two years the reimbursement of the State permanent
funds for drafts made thereon to meet running expenses of
the State government.
Within the two year period stated the State deficit viii
have increased to well above the million dollar mark. The
money must be raised eventually; until it is raised and the
permanent funds are reimbursed the State will be losing the
interest on the amount of the permanent funds which has been
devoted to payment of current expenses. This loss now is at
the rate OF Sl5,0OO per annum, using z per centum as the earn
ing rate upon which loss is computed; before the expiration
of the period during which the Governors action has extended
the term of not merely loss, but of steadily increasing loss, the
rate OF loss Will have become more than $4,000 n year and may
become very considerably more than that amount.
The situation responsible for the State deficit resulted
from the action of State boards of equalization in fixing the
State tax leves at mIlages inadequate to raise sufficient rev
enue to pay the expenses Of State government. Some State
boards of equalization individually ''played politics. in con
sidcring and setting State lcvies. seeking TO create n favorable
impression on the public mind by setting levies at low millages
regardless of the fact that n deficit as between State income
and State disbursements thereby was made inevitable.
Governor Ross message to the Eighteenth legislature
emphasized the smallness of the levy for 1924, which was
2sl62 mills, asserting that it was the 'lowest levy ever made
since the State was admitted to the Union.' The statement
was Incorrect, there having been preceding levies that were
lower as stated in mills and the majority of preceding levies
having been greatly less from the viewpoint Of the amount of
tax money of which the levies were representative, but it
statements concerning low levics without mention of the fact
that il is not smallness of levy, but the amount that it is nee
essary to raise by levy and the fixing Of the levy mt n millage

taxation.

JACKIE COOGAN
 HERE NEXT WEEK
He Will Delight Patrons Of the
 Capitol in "1he Rag Man"

For his fourth picture on his Metro c oldwyn contract Jackie Coo gan has a contrasting story as diff ferent from Little Robinson Cru soc" as "A Boy of Flanders" was from Jackie's Long Live the King"
 Instead of the glitter of the South Seas and the palm and jungle clothed islands of the equatorial zone, the East Side of New York Is the 'locale of "The Ragman," which is coming to the Capitol theater Sunday, and the episodes are those characteristically metropolitan. The appeal of the narrative is intimate, and grows out of the singular as- sociation of little Tim Kelly (Jackie Coogan), and Max Ginsberg, the latter dealer in rags, sacks, bot ties and old iron.
 Into the life of this submerged merchant comes little Tim Kelly, who quickly proves his business shrewdness and the partnership of Ginsberg and Kelly results. How the little fellow not only rehabili- tates the spirit of the junk dealer but his finances also, is the plot material of what promises to be Jackies most human and beguiling picture. The nature of the story Is such as to lend itself to comedy, a fact which Edward F. Cline, the di- rector, has been highly competent
