Hoover and Taxes
IN. Y. World-Telegram)

President Hoovers address in Rich
mond to the Conference of Governors
was one of the best that has come out
of the White House in this admins
tration. It should serve the double
purpose Of focusing public attention
on the need for economy and tax re-
forms and also on the fact that the
lproblem Of state and local eXpendi-
| lures is even more serious than that
Of federal expenditures.
Federal expenditures account for
less than 80 per cent of total govern
mental OUTLAWS. In eight years the
cost Of federal government has risen
only from $1,000 100000 to $4,000 ,000,-
600, compared with an increase in
State governments from $4,000 900 900
to $38, 800 ,O00, 900.
And the cost Of federal government
is largely matter Of war and prepar-
edness, 81 per cent for debts, and 10
per cent for veterans relief, which
leaves only about % per cent for all
other government activities.
The cost OF federal government with
in that % per cent can be lowered by
eliminating heavy prohibition costs
and by decreasing red tape, but, by
and large, federal expenditures are apt
to go up rather than down.
| There is wider leeway for cuts in
State expenditures, where there prob
ably Is more extravaganza and waste
than in federal government. Con-
struction projects lead some States
close to bankruptcy.
Some saving in the upkeep of State
and local governments can be made
through Capitalization and elimina-
ton Of small and overlapping units,
through curbing widespread graft and
waste, and through slowing down pub
lie construction programs. But it is
unlikely that the American people
over a period of years will be content
to spend less on schools, hospitals,
roads and the other large items Of ex-
pense.
Hence, whether we like 1t or not
much Of the budget balancing Of COM
aunities. States and nation during
the next decade will consist not 80
much Of cutting expenses az Of in
creastng or shifting taxes.
The need Of liquor tax Is obvious
though the President forgot to men.
ton It.
We agree heartily with Mr.. Hoover's
statement that "the tax burden upon
real estate Is wholly out Of proportion
to that upon other forms Of property
and income" and that other and
fairer methods must be found.
We believe In broad base income
and estate tax with progressively
higher rates Of the type which ha.
worked 50 successfully in England. Il

not refused to permit our income t.,
to build up q reserve In good times To-
use In bad times the federal govern

Special Training for Handicapped Children

Nearly 100000 Partially Deaf Get No Special

Of 4 series OF six articles by DR..
Fishbein.
BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN
Editor. Journal Of the American Med
ical Association, and Of Hygeia, the
Health Magazine
A special report OF the White House
Conference on Child Health and Pro-
lection deals with handicapped and
gifted children. While 100000 OF
the $4,000 900 children In America are
reasonably normal and while 500. 900
Of the children are especially gifted, 1t
Is found that 5,630,000 are handi-
capped to an extent requiring special
attention In education.
A committee charged with investt-
CATION Of handicapped children finds
3 600, 900 with impaired hearing: $4,000
totally deaf; 100000 with defective
speech; 100000 with weak or dam
aged hearts; 100000 mentally retard-
ed; 100000 crippled; $4,000 wholly
blind and $4,000 partially blind.
One Of the aims Of the White House
Conference, as expressed In the chill
dren's charter, applies directly to these
children. It says: For every child
who is blind, deaf, crippled, or other
wise physically handicapped, and for
the child who is mentally handi-
capped, such measures as will early
discover and diagnose his handicap,
provide care and treatment, and so
train him that he may become an as
set to society rather than liability.
Expenses of these services should
be borne publicly where they cannot

When it is realized that there are
probably 10000 other children who
ought to have the same efforts ex-

problem becomes more apparent.
1t is a better policy to spend money
today in teaching the handicapped

than to take care Of them at public
expense when they grow older.

The Wage Cut Fight

One OF the interesting phenomena
of the moment is the battle being
waged between President Hoover ano
The congress regarding the best mean;
of reducing the governments cumber-
some payroll.
Every grooming taxpayer wants ex-
oenses reduced and the payroll is a
large item of expense, but everyone
wants this reduction to be as painless
as possible and to affect the ordinary
commercial and industrial status Of
the country as little as possible.
On this basis. President Hoover
suggestions for staggered employment
and q reduction in the number OF
hours worked. thus keeping everyone
on the payroll and keeping many of
Of the list of public charges, is much
better suited to the needs of the time
than the suggestion by congress for an
elimination Of some workers by a
reduction.
In theory the congressman are quite
correct. We have and have had for
many years too many persons on the
public payroll. Yet the question now
is to get the total amount paid down
to fairer figure. not to throw a large
number Of persons out Of their jobs.
On the question: Of reducing salaries
below $4,000 a year, the nation prob
ably will side with the president also.
All will agree that the man earning
the larger salary should take the
heaviest reduction but to fix $4,000 as
q sort Of minimum wage in these
times may prove exasperating to
many who have found their incomes
shrinking to practically nothing.

fit II every automobile driver in the
city will adopt the suggestion that he
park his car in the vacant lots desig-
mated by the city for that purpose
rather than on the streets.
For many months businessmen have
been passing on to the city commits
sioners complaints registered with
them by farmers and other visitors
regarding the lack of parking facili-
ties. Evidently the city fathers were
unwilling to give up the advantages
Of parallel parking and 60 back to
the old angle-parking system, and yet
they realized the complaint was a just
one. Adoption of the system where
by vacant lots are used may well prove
the answer.
Suggestion by City Commissioner
Paul Wachter that city drivers use
these places, leaving more parking
places on the streets open for visitors,
is sound and every loyal Bismarck res
ident should make a note Of it. The
parking plots are all in the downtown
district and our own citizens easily
can remember where they are. Wis
Itors can hardly be expected to do so.
If good parking facilities mean more
business, and unquestionably they do,
everyone can support Bismarck's
commercial interests by using the
parking plots and giving additional
courtesy to visitors in the city.
