are goinv to have more leisure than
they ever had before, it is well, per-
haps, to give thought for a moment to
the one who isn't going to be quite SO
happy. We mean the boss
He's the man that the national recov-
cry administration refers to as an ex-
ecutive who Is exempt from the code
provisions for the shorter week. He is
exempt for the simple reason that he
is going to work harder and longer
hours and carry greater burdens than
before. He's the guy who must think
up ways and means of changing his
business methods TO meet code condi-
tons and still, if possible, keep out OF
the red. He's the fellow who has to
dig up the newer and higher wage
scale cash, so that the pay envelopes
will still be available on Saturday
night. He's the man who must answer
81 will' to the President, and, in order
to get that precious eagle emblem
think and work and worry as never
before.
In some future day when, we all
hope. historians will look back upon
the summer of 1893 and record it as
the period of a new emancipation OF
the American people; when they will
tell the story of nation united to de-
stroy dat oil debbil Depression; when
they will write of leadership that was
courageous and confident and deter
mined, at that future day we hope the
Prescotts and Gibbonses Of the era will
find time for at least paragraph about
the usually unsung unhonored and I'M
wept hero Of it all--the boss. Just In
case those future historians neglect
their duty, we hasten to seize the OPP
portunity here and now to cast few
bouquets and laurel wreaths at the fell
low who is too busy to know or care
about praise, who is only hoping he
can scheme way to make ends meet,
while he devotes forty and twice forty
hours week to the process.

OBJECT TO GROSS SALES TAX.

Montana solons in special session at
Helena have perplexing problem to
solve in devising some plan to raise adj
ditional revenue for relief purposes. A
proposed measure to place per cent
gross sales tax on certain lines of in
dustry is now under consideration.
The industries to be taxed would be
manufacturers, jobbers, wholesalers,
sugar and lumber interests. Strong OPP
position is coming from those who
would be taxed. They argue that such
a tax would put them out of business.
Those engaged in sugar production in
the state claim that half of the tax
would come from the growers of sugar
beets because such a provision is con-
tanned in the contract between the
grower and the sugar refinery
One bad feature of the law would be
the handicap it would place on Montana
industries in meeting competition from
other states 1t is said that products
coming into the state cannot be taxed
under a ruling by the United States
supreme court. Thus out-of-state prod
ucts sold in Montana would have that
advantage over Montana industry And
Montana products sold in other states
not having such a tax would again be
faced with that additional burden in
meeting competition. This would apply
to our local product-lumber-and to
all other products manufactured with
in the state.
1t is commended by the DIRECTORS at
hearings now being held in Helena that
many manufacturing plants in the
state are just being able to get by with
conditions as they are; others are rum
ming at loss and are meeting payrolls
from previous earnings. They claim
that if they are forced to pay tax of
/ per cent on gross income it will force
them to close their plants.
Truly this problem of practical and
just system of taxation is one of the
most difficult mankind has ever had
to face.

NEED AUTO DRIVERS LICENSE
LAW.

Up to December 10, los persons had
lost their lives in Montana this year
because of automobile accidents. Last
year the fatal motor accidents at the
same date numbered 80. The total
number of deaths in 1882 due to this
cause was '95.
While the licensing of auto drivers
would not stop all such accidents, it
would undoubtedly greatly reduce
their number. The Montana legislators
made serious mistake when they re-
fused to enact an auto drivers license
law at their last session.

SOME PLANS WORK BACKWARDS.

This attempt to manage the entire in
dertaking. So often things do not work
out just as the planners thought they
would. 1t is so easy to sit in an office
and theorize but due to some unforeseen
cause, theory does not always work out
in practice.
One of the most recent examples of
this is seen in the price of hogs. The
government recently embarked in the
buying of hogs to help use up the sur
plus that was holding down the price
On November l it also put into effect
a processing tax on every pound of
pork handled by packers and retailers
On September / the government
started its hog buying campaign. The
Spokane hog market at the time was
$3.50 BY October the price for hogs
had slipped to $5.25 with the bulk of
the sales at $500. On November 1 a
processing tax Of Soc a hundred went
into effect. BY this time the market was
down to $4.10 On December the pro-
cessing tax was raised to $100 a hun
dred. On that day the Spokane hog
market closed at $3.50.
The significant thing in this incident
is that whereas the hog market was
$3.50 at the time the government put
its schemes into effect, it had dropped
to $3.50 after few weeks of IMAM
agement" by the government Instead
of a benefit to the producer IT has re-
suited in loss. When the processing tax
went into effect on November |, it was
explained by the buyers that one-half
of the tax would be taken from the
producer and one-hal from the con-
sumner
Management in this particular in
stance is working in Just the opposite
direction from what it was intended

BLACK CLOUDS
OF WAR PERIL
WHOLE WORLD
Last VeStige of Hope Rests
on u. S. Ability to
Nail Down Lid.
BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS
scripps- Howard Foreign Editor

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-The next
twelve months, ranking American
and foreign diplomats here anxious
ly admit. likely will shape human
destiny for generations.
Wars are feared on three CONT
nents in Europe, Asia and South
sAmerica--while the League Of Ma
tions and the Kellogg pact powers
have shown themselves about as
helpless as a clucking hen whose
ducklings have taken to water.
In the far east Japan is preparing
to grab of Jehol another rich Chi
nese province, and Peiping, the
ancient Chinese capital, is menaced.
In South America a war already
is on between Paraguay and Bolivia.
and a new one between Colombia
and Peru is expected to get under
way as soon as Warships and troops
reach Leticia, the bone of contention
on the upper Amazon. Brazil and
Ecuador may be dragged in
Ready TO Start Firing
In Europe, Germany and Poland
face each other in a rage over pos
session of the Polish corridor. Italy
and Yugo-Slavia may fly at each
others throat any minute
France ally Of both Poland and
Jugo-Slavia, almost certainly would
march in were hOstilities to break
out. Feeling continues to run high
between French and Germans and
French and Italians.
Germany and France once again
are nearing the parting of the ways.
Germany demands revision of the
Versailles treaty and the right to
rearm and this year may bring
showdown.
Over the powder barrels Of Europe
and the far east Russia, huge and
increasing powerful, is poised like
colossal question mark.
America is tied in with all this.
A pistol shot in the far Balkans
back in 1914, cost the lives of more
than 100000 American boys and
$30000000 900 in American money
before its echo died.
Hope Is On U. S.
For this reason, American dip
lomaCy plans to do what it can this
year to nail down the lids on some
of the open powder kegs. But the
situation is vastly complicated.
Against a background of con-
stantly growing hatred of this
country Europe has united to bring
about virtual cancellation of her
$11 ,0O0OOO,OOO war debt to us, fail
ing which she plans to close her
doors to American goods. This has
been intimated officially.
Unless the United States, there
fore, can bring about war debts
revision, disarmament, and a world
economic understanding during 1888,
it is feared the fat will be in the
fire.
