They Like Farming

Some interesting discoveries are reported by a group of civil engineers who, having nothing to do, have gone into cooperative farming scheme. Most of those engineers used to play golf regularly in the warm weather. Now they say that they find farming just as exciting as golf and even more satisfactory in some ways. They can play it all through the week instead of play ing only on weekends. And they will have something besides empty cups to show for their seasons activity. The experiment is paying its own way. They expect to have their own vegetables all summer. and crops to sell in the fall.
 Still more important, perhaps, is the n- tangible harvest. They are building up strong physques, they say. and are pretty much themselves again after rather sour experience for the last couple of years With all due respect for physical needs. it must be recognized that mental needs also must be mnistered to. When a man has been out of work for long time. his health and self-respect need rehabilitating The great need of normal human beings is productive work - not necessarily, profitable work. but work in which they can see results and which helps them to get along. That is why gardening or farming is so good for the unemployed.

Effective Tax Protests

Much has been heard in the past year or two two of taxpayers strikes. In many communities citizens have become indignant at government extravaganza, at waste and graft, at exorbitant taxes or taxes which seemed to them unjustly apportioned. As realization of these abuses has become keen CT. the taxpayers have simply sat back and refused to pay. Not all delinquent taxes in the nation are unpaid for that reason. Some of the seeming strikers have really been un- able to pay. Yet there has been pronounced and deliberate withholding of tax payments sufficiently widespread to amount to gen. eral strike.
 A taxpayers strike. however provoked. is not wise thing. It is very much like cut ting of ones nose to spite ones face A serious condition arises in any community where the strike is carried too far. Essen- tial civic functions must be discontinued. Government breaks down. The possible re. suits in populous cities of reducing fire and police services. disseminating garbage and rubbish collections. street repair work and sewerage disposal are appalling. Other, less obvious ill effects follow from dseontinu. snss of park maintenance and recreation ssnssn. The sensible thing for indignant end ovsfbusdensd taxpayers 10 do is 10 rise in fheif wrath and insist on decent. honest, economical government on having tax
