WHITING ON FACTORY

tsries that drtvss to secure new In

and frequently Earring and dis

Yet it il . fact that a large per.
centaye Of the chambers Of com.

chief object the securing Of new in

ton more on u basis OF new indus
tries obtained than from any other
standpoint.
The probability IL that Mr.. Whit
ing is at least half right. All citles
having commercial organizations are
not In q position to accemme@ats
any kind Of industry that may seek
to change ita base. The truth re-
mains. however. that scores OF cities
have gained aAonishingly in indus
trial growth ~ . result OF N A.
gressive attitude In this direction.
In the Background lies the in
Aubitable fact that all commercial
organizations cannst b. equally sue
cessful In these endelvors: II that
were 50 then the industries Of the
nation would be changing frsn one
town to another half the time.
Let the town raise = fund, pay in
dustries to cems to the city IN one
way or another, let taxes be RENTED
for period of say ten years. and sell
blocks Of stock throughout the csm-
munity. and the tndustry-precuFing
system invariably works. And why
wouldn't it? That is the system that
NUMEROUS western cities possessing
boom instincts have followed, and to
the disgust Of other more conserva-
tive communities 1t works Let cities
vie for new industries On q basis Of
merit only, however. and very little
changing Of sites will occur. The in
dustries that desire to change to an
other city usually are thinking Of
getting something for nothing in the
process. New bona fide industrial
opportunities. shorn Of these factors,
are distressinsiy few.
The local c. of C. is out for new
industries on a legitimate basis.
Bonuses, free sites. tax remissions.
and other forms Of bait ara not
utilized. Perhaps that il why we
don't land" 4 new industry every
month. Or every year, for that mat
ter.

THE GOVERNORS MESSAGE
ON STATE FINANCE

To be successful the state govern
ments Pay-as-you-gop policy must be
predicated upon large income from
divers sources. AS the outlay in
creases the tax money must increase
in proportion. The pay-asyougo
system will work Just SO long as the
tax returns let it,. When the ''neces-
sxry improvements begin cost
ing more than the income
will allow the system refuses to
work; or, has been done for several
years, some of the said improve
lnents are laid aside until there is
enough money on hand to go ahead.
Governor Trumbull vigorously at
tackled one OF the most recent sug-
gestions to raise the income Of the
state; namely. the infliction Of an in
come tax. Such a tax would bring in
much money. and primarily would
affect only the rich and well-to do.
But in view Of the fact that the fed
erai government already has such a
tax. and the additional fact that
Connecticut on the strength of
Finance Chairman Halls recon-
mendation doesn't need this addi-
tional money to continue the pay
ss-you-so policy. the governor is
sound in his opposition to this pro-
posed infection.
The governor declares the pay-as-
you-go policy is IS sound for the
state as for any other business in
stitution. Which is true enough, ex-
cept that few business institution,
are conducted that way; and We
would be surprised if his own con.
Germ In Plainville were thus con.
Quoted. If business concerns as q
whole conducted things on this plar
there would be no need for banks
The fact is, the pay-as-you policy
is better adapted to a political or.
ganization than to a business; If ap
piled to or followed by bushes.
houses generally 1t would stifIe en-.
terprise. So far az the state is con.
cerned. however, the citizen car
favor it SO long as it works. If i
were to stifIe the enterprise of tn,
state it would be Just as mischie, ou
q policy as when applied TO bushes,
institutions.
The governor also stated that tn,
suggestion of state income tax i
"repugnant to and violates all on
conceptions in Connecticut Of a SO
ciai program" These were moreI,
high flowing words Such tax is re
pugnant to nothing and violates n,
social program of which We ar
aware. It simply isn't necessary, am
that is sufficient.
