Tax Reduction Thru Struggle

The Michigan Farmer, one of the Capper farm
papers, has come out with detailed program for
tax reduction. THE CHIEF PURPOSE OF THIS
PROGRAM is TO PREVENT A REAL STRUG.
GLE BY THE SMALL AND MIDDLE FARM
Frs FOR TAX REDUCTION
In the December II issue of the Michigan Farm,
er they point out the condition that has been brot
about in the state as the result of the confisca-
tory taxes that have been levied OH the farmers.
They point out the vast amount of land that has
been sold for taxes.
Land is now being abandoned to the
state because taxed beyond what it will
produce; and that abandonment is in
creasing at the alarming rate of an ava
lanche. In 1920, 4,656,93O acres were
sold for taxes; in 1880 the amount aban-
doned in one year had increased to g.
755,469 acres. This statement does not
tell all the truth.
"Very little of the land that went off
Of the tax rolls in the ten years return
ed to private hands again by sale; and
most of what was sold was because of
the oil boom, which soon was spent so
that these lands will again fall off.
Moreover while the number of acres
doubled, the amount of the levy aban-
doned increased eight fold. In 1920 it
was $1,29O,062; in 1880, $1O481 1854.

'14-Year.old Speech by Texan
"Misinterpreted," Is Charge
BY Dry Amendment Author
By WILLIAM Q. MURPHY, Jr.

BY WILLIAM c. MURPHY, Jr.
The Democratic family row over
prohibition reached the boiling
point last night when .Jouett
Shouse, chairman of the Demo
cratic executive committee. cited
a 14year-old speech Of Senator
Morris Sheppard CD Of Texas,
as an argument for resubmitting
the Eighteenth Amendment to the
States.
Thousands who listened to
ShOuse over q nationwide hOOk-up
were astOnished to hear the views
Of the author Of the Eighteenth
Amendment quoted as a reason
why the amendment should be re-
submitted In a modified form.
Mr.. Sheppard was astonished
when he heard Of 1t several hours
later and promptly repudiated the
Interpretation placed by Mr..
Shouse upon the all put forgotten
speech.
For Longer Trial
Mr.. Shouse, in his radio ad-
dress, argued that members Of
Congress who may favor prohibi'
tion would be justified in voting
for submission of a new modifying
amendment. He said there Is
distinguished precedent" for that
suggestion and then quoted from
a speech made BY Mr.. Sheppard
on July 80, 1917, as follows:
.'The member Of Congress
who will not vote for the sub
mission Of constitutional amend.
ment to the decision Of the
States, where 1t belongs, unless
he personally believes it should
become a part Of the COntitu-
ton, usurps the function Of
the States, arrOgates to himself
and the Federal Government
o prerOgative that belongs to
the States and violates the very
essence Of their sovereignty.
''Were / opposed on principle
to nationwide prohibition,
would vote to submit the
amendment to the States in
order that they might exercise
one of their fundamental
rights. An issue is this pre-.
sented by the nationwide
amendment entirely independ-.
ent Of prohibition"

ARBOR day Brings
RITES OVER NATION
Nebraska Began Observance
of Tree Planting in 1872
to Shade PrairieS.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEBRASKA CITY, Nebr., April a.
Arbor day, born on the once treeless
plains of Nebraska, was celebrated to-
day. 1t has legal recognition in many
States of the Nation.
It is a day for planting trees. School
children in hundreds of towns place
saplings in the grounds. Farmers and
CITY folks set out scores Of seedlings
or their single shoots, and pioneers OF
prairie Nebraska bark back to days
when they had to ride miles to ma q
stick to switch a dog.
Arbor day became a fact IN 1872
j. Sterling Morton, statesman, agrlcuI-
turist, writer and business man, pro-
posed to the Nebraska Board of Agrl-
culture then a resolution for observance
of the day. His suggestion won ap-
proval.
Settlers took the resolution to heart.
They yanked saplings from river sand
bars and from stream banks to plant
them in groves, or Singly, about tnelE
homes or on their farms.
Today their seedlings are shade trees.
Eastern Nebraska is a parkland. Even
on Western Nebraska ranches trees
are no longer curios.
Two years after Morton made his
first suggestion the State Legislature
established Arbor day permanently.
From Nebraska the idea spread.
Morton was Secretary of the United
States Department of Agriculture later,
under President Grover Cleveland. His
Nebraska City home, Arbor Lodge, is
now part of a 38acre State park,
decided the Commonwealth by his
heirs. The mansion is historical
museum.
