WHO GETS TAX REDUC-
TION?

The bills that are being put through
Congress to lop off millions of federal
taxes will benefit the great mass of
the taxpayers, including the large
taxpayer, the small taxpayer and the
non-taxpayer.
Tax reduction is inevitably great
stimulant to industry, to investment
and to the Inauguration of new en-
terprises, because it means a lowering
of production costs. .gw
Now it is fact that cost of produc-
ton is almost inevitably passed on to
the consumer, as much as raw mater
ial and labor costs, only the item of
taxation is permanent one liable to
be increased by State and local au-
thorities.
1t is not easily controverted that
the sale price of an article, which
must be the total cost of production
plus profit, and all cost of operation,
is finally taxed upon the consumer.
And so it comes about that all are
benefited by tax reduction.

SUPPRESSED BOOKS

A recent decree of the Soviet gov
eminent provides for rigid inspection
of all libraries to which the public has
access, and the elimination of all
books tainted by religion" or dealing
with religious or moral subjects SYM
pathetically. Along with these must
go books which discuss the land ques-
ton, economics and politics along the
anti-Bolshevist lines.
The ban on the latter group, too,
comes at time when the Soviet lead
ers in practice are hedging on their
principles. Their retreat from COM
munism is to be covered up in the
libraries, if possible.
this sort of thing won't work very
long. Religion cannot be routed per-
manently in this way. Neither can
economic and political ideas and ques-
tionings be forever silenced by the
destruction of books on the subject.
The contents of books are the first
thoughts in mems minds, and neither
Russian radicals or American funda-
mentalists can stop people from think
ing. Russia's progress may be greatly
retarded by such rash and ill-consid-
cred actions, but eventually that rich
land with its fundamentally intelli-
gent people will work its way out into
a saner civilization.

HARD ON GOV. RITCHIE.

Friends of Governor Richie, of Ma
ryland, who have been grooming him
for the Democratic nomination for
President, may be shocked by the
news from Chicago.
A New York correspondent has re-
emily interviewed George E. Bren-
en-, Democratic boss, who has Chi

declaring that Governor Alfred E.
nth, of New York, will walk away"
h the Democratic nomination, and,
.thermore, will be elected. He will
t, according to Mr.. Brennan, the
mocratic delegates from almost ev-
part of the country except the
lthern States, where the Democrat
votes on election day comes from.
csc states still battle Mr. Brennan.
t the latter was never more enthu-
site. Why CAL" could snatch dele
oes right from under the nose of
:. McAdoo if Gal" wished to do so,
VS. Mr.. Brennan.
The New York Governor, according
his admirer, could beat any candi-
ate the Republicans might select. All
f which should jar Governor Richie.
Only recently the Maryland poten-
ate visited Chicago He was under
the wing of Brennan. Governor Rit-
chic went there to be looked over.
Thousands did look him over. They
were of all classes, sound and respec-
table Democrats and gangsters also.
After he returned, having discoursed
on the fundamentals of our govern
ment, praise was showered upon him.
Mr.. Brennan was pleased. But now
Mr.. Brennan comes out with a loud
war whoop for Governor Smith, thus
leaving Governor Richie in the lurch.
That is politically unkind treatment.
The Chicago boss might have permit
ted the Maryland man to dream on
sweetly. He should not be awakened
so sharply.
However, according to Washington
statements, the governor evidently is

forwarded to the nearest agricultural
high school or office of the County
Agent to be tested.
The local banks have very gra-
ciously agreed to pay five cents for
each sample brought in by the chill
dren. Each sample must be accom-
panied by certificate signed by the
teacher, pupil or person from whom
the sample was obtained. Upon COM
pletion of the testing the farmers will
be notified direct as to the lime re-
.quirements of. their farms.
Much of the lime required in this
county can be supplied from local out
crops. Many of these outcrops have
been analysed and found to be of good
quality. Deserving farmers who buy
lime will find that all the banks are
only too glad to assist with the financ-
ing of the lime in large or small guam
titles. w. CLAYTON JESTER,

COME ON UP!

On the bulletin board of a larg
manufacturing company in Chicag
there appears the following which i
worthy of republication here:
Look back over 1925. Be hon.
est with yourself. Did you en-
deavor to give the boss, at all
times, just little more than he
paid for or expected? Did you
make a real effort to learn more
about the business that you might
be more valuable to the boss and
to yourself? Did you do any out
side studying in preparation for
the next step up?
In this organization we do not
pay for what an employe knows,
but what he does. We do not pay
for what is in your head but for
what comes out of it. Production,
or results, is the sole measure of
your ability and your compensa-
ton is based on what you have
done. Just as soon as you do more
you will earn more.
Your department head, or your
foreman, has no fear that you
will "get his job" He is afraid
you won't. He knows that when
you push him out of his job you
simultaneously push him up the
ladder 1t is to his interest to
find and keep men who can "get
his job"
Sales competition in our bust
ness is very keen. We have to
work hard to keep our sales vol
ume up. We must constantly seek
new fields-new markets. Produc-
ton costs in this plant are too
large. We are constantly search
ing for new methods that will re-
duce our production costs. The
officers of this company have
lot of work to do. We need help
good help. Come on up!

THE NEWER VERSION.

Adam was the first man, Eve was his
spouse;
They lost their job by stealing fruit,
and went to keeping house;
They lived together happily and
peaceful in the main,
Until they had a baby boy and went
to raising Cain.
Esau was farmer Of the wild and
woody make;
His father gave him half farm and
half to brother Jake
He seemed sto think his title to it
wasn't Very clear,
For he soldI his half to jake for a
sandwich and a beer.
Solomon was a wise guy: he had lots
of cash;
Along the Queen of Sheba came and
Solly made mash;
He seemed to think that royalty was
rather underpaid,
So he took to writing proverbs, tho
he was king by trade.
Jonah was a fisherman, so runs the
ancient tale;
Took transatlantic passage in the
Storage of whale;
He jumped around so lively that the
whale was sore distressed;
Then Jonah pushed the button and the
whale did all the rest.
Joseph was a shepherd boy, the Bible
stories tell US,
His golf coat was so stunning that it
made his brothers jealous;
So they sold him into Egypt for a
small consideration,
Where he made a million dollars on a
big grain speculation.

FEDERAL TIME-KILLERS

Congressman Martin L. Davey has
been asked by the National Associa-
ton of Federal Employees. for "pre-
else information regarding the source
of his figures" after his drastic ar
raignment of the government en-
ployees as "loafers, time-killers and
buck-passers. He replies:
81 have used my eyes and my ears,
my experience in business and my ex-
perience with the departments of the
government, as a member of Congress,
and | have also used logic and my
common sense.
81 would guarantee that any capa-
BILE business executive would run the
business end of the government with
less than half of the 100000 employees,
if he could use ordinary business abil-
ity and discretion, and could be una
faid of the foolish laws and red tape
that now tie the hands of the chief
executive and his associates.
Furthermore, such a business ex-
ecutive, under those conditions, would
render some real service to the Amer
lean people, which they are not now
getting. If you could talk with the
multitude of citizens of the United
States who have tried to get answers
or service from their government and
have failed, and have turned away in
disgust, you would know what
mean"
Yes, many of US know what he
means. And while there are many
fine, competent people in the govern
ment service, in the main he is proba-
bly, right.
The departmental employees are
not necessarily to blame on the whole.
Conditions make them what they are,
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1926-02-25

and also make them, little by little,
unable to see themselves as others
see them.
Executive heads are partly respon-
sible. Congress is largely response
BILE for encouraging or ignoring exist
ing conditions, and might do much to
remedy them by providing authority
for such reorganization as President
Coolidge and other executives have
asked.

COUNTY AGENTS COLUMN.
A Garrett County Lime Campaign.

A Garrett County Lime Campaign.
At least four-ffths of the farm land
of Garrett county requires lime to
produce a profitable crop. The poor
and unproductive land of the county
is invariably sour and many of the
good soils would be more productive
if lime were used more literally
When a soil begins to need lime it is a
waste of time and energy to- continue
to cultivate it until this need is sup
piled, since the economic use of ma
nure and fertilizers is dependent upon
the lime supply.
Because of the fact that lime is so
greatly needed in the county, coun-
ty-wide lime campaign is being or
ganized by the County Extension Ser
vice in cooperation with the public
schools, farm organizations and local
banks. The purpose of the campaign
is to instruct the farmers as to the
amount of lime their farms need and
to encourage them to meet these de-
ficiencies as much as possible.
The campaign will start as soon as
the weather permits with series of
lectures throughout the county. These
lectures will be by specialists from
the University of Maryland. Their
subjects will be on lime and it's rela-
ton to agriculture and will be accom-
panied by motion pictures or lantern
slides. Immediately following these
lectures the school children through
out the county will be instructed how
to take soil samples and asked to
bring them in to their school teacher,
samples of their fathers or neighbors'
fields. These samples will then be

THE MOUNTAIN IMPOSSI-
BILE TO CLIMB.

Many young rural teacher in the
public schools who began her teach
ing experience last fall is falling by
the wayside. After several months of
school she feels that she is still at the
foot of the mountain of successful
teaching and has lost hope of climb
ing it. Now she longs for a friendly
word from some one who has climbed
many mountains and knows how to
help others climb! But often no such
person comes.
The teacher is conscious that she
has not mastered the situation, but
she knows not how to master it. She
forgets what she learned in the school
which prepared her for teaching and
reverts to the ways, in which she was
taught. Often Encouragement be-
comes so complete that she says, II
think l shall quit. l shall never be
able to do anything with these chill
dren." Sometimes she quits in real
ity. Oftener she quits trying and does
less creditable work than her ability
warrants.
In Garrett county where there are
rural school supervisors a different
,cture presents itself. Long before
ksgiving the supervisor had Wis
lt.u every beginning teacher. Under
standing the teachers problems thru
her own experience as county teach
