It is perfectly true, of course, that
insofar as the Federal Government is
concerned, the major part Of the in

for by our participation in the World

that for the fiscal year ending in 1923.
Federal expenditures were only 31H

Mounting Cost Of Government

Naturally, those responsible for
government desire to give their con-
stituency the finest educational facili-
ties. the best roads. streets. public
parks, playgrounds, and other facili-
ties obtainable, but, after all, there Is
no denying the fact that expenditures
for such purposes bear a very close
relation to tho individual, because
they mortgage his future earnings for
consumable and rapidly deteriorating
goods.
Every bond issue for the public well
fare Is an installment debt on the
earning capacity of every individual
and enterprise in the community az

stallment amortization Of the debt it.
self, but constantly increasing
charge TOR maintenance and upkeep If
the Improvement is to be preserved
against early deterioration and quick
ruin.
Most of the taxing machinery of the
country was created at time when
the present volume Of public debt was
not thought possible: and it is, there
fore. inadeQuately and ineQuitably ed
justed to meet the emergencies OF the
present burden.
The consequences is that in almost
every major political subdivision CT
the country certain classes Of wealth
escape taxation, or pay little, while
other types of property are charged
with an unbearable obligation.
The Guty OF leadership, therefore,
in this field is two-fold. First, and
most important OF 'all, a greater de.
gree OF caution must be exercised in
the creation of government obliga.
tions; and, second, an immediate re.
form in taxing machinery must be un-
Gertaken.

seductive influence Of so-called Fed.

In many instances, this policy OF
public expenditure approaches close

every case, lends itself to political

ercignty, and 2 gradual impoverish.

have said nothing OF the proposal and
promotion Of undertakings which in
many instances are not justified by
the necessity OF the situation or by the
utilization Of the facilities contem-
plated. Let there be no mistake in
this respect.
Let us face the facts. Unless there
Is return to sanity in the matter of
