TAX SYSTEM RAPED
Excessive Cost of Running

BY Times Special
FIT. WAYNE, Ind, Feb. 26.-Fig-
ures showing that wage decreases
have not been met by proportionate
decreases in costs of government
were presented here Thursday night
by Joe Rand Beckett, indianapolis,
executive secretary of the Indiana
Association for Tax Justice, who adj
dressed the Allen County Taxpayers
Association.
In 1913, considered by economists
generally as typically normal year,
Indiana citizens paid 60,169, 1888 in
taxes-township, city, county, state
and federal. This includes licenses
and fees of all Sorts" he said.
Beckett said in 1913 persons en-
ployed in Indiana totaled 1,036, ITO,
and the average annual income was
1858 and the average tax per per-
son was $50. In 1929, the yearly
wage was 1919 and taxes, 5000. In
1881, the wage dropped to $506, a
decrease of 1913, but taxes were sos,
a decrease Of only So from the sum

MARCH OF TIME TO
GO OFF THE RADIO

further expenditure on radio at
this time would not justify itself. -
The fact that tens of thousands
of listeners have protested its dis
continuance, Time says, is "testi-
mony to the leanness of radio fare. %
"Unlihe the newspaper, which
sells advertising to fulfill its prime
function of giving news, the adj
vertisement is radios prime offer
ing" the magazine asserts.
ALSO unlike newspaper, which
increases its pages along with any
increase in advertising, radio is re-
stricted to the hours of the day. OF
these hours, it sells as many as it
can. Naturally, the evening hours,
when most listeners are tuned. in
the front page of radio-are vir-
tually the property of the advertiser.
Should Time or any other bust
ness feel obliged to be the 'philan-
thropist of the air. to continue
paying for radio advertising it does
not want, to provide radio with
something worth while?"
The Columbia broadcasting sys-
tenn, over whose network the pro-
gram was broadcast, complimented
Time on having achieved its pri-
mary purpose, and denied that it
is necessary for any company to pay
for something it does not want to
provide radio with something worth
while
It said another sponsor would
continue. the type of program spon-
Sored by Time.

only about fifteen planes avail
able, the Japanese have more
than 100 planes at Shanghai,
with bombers capable Of carry
ing as much as 1900 pounds of

These undoubtedly are hastily
