Apathy Toward.
Tax C'rtting Goal
Fails 70 Understand Lack

Total Paid u. S.
The Tim~s-Ncws Bureau
Sir Walter Hotel

RALEIGH, April Is Gov
ernor J. C. Is. EMringhaus, who
goes to Washington on his tax
reduction mission, is at loss to
understand the apparent apathy
on the part Of North Carolinians
generally to the tremendous
amount of taxes which the fed
eral government collects from
the state each year, amounting
to more than S200,000,000 an
nually. as compared with the cru
SADIE for lower state taxes, when
the state collect only S25,000,000
a year for state purposes. This
S25, 100000 a year, of course,
does not include the revenue
from the gasoline and automobile
license tax, which go to pay high
way Indebtedness and for the
maintenance of the roads.
4 fail to understand the psy-
chOlogv of many neople in North
Carolina who while crying out
for additional reduction in state
taxes, which were reduced 80
per cent by the 1888 legislature,
while they continue to permit the
federal government to collect
more than S10,000,000 a year in
federal income taxes and some
S192,000,000 a wear in tobacco
taxes without making anv obiec-
ton" Governor Ehringhaus said.
81 also cannot understand why
there is so much opposition to
the state 3 per cent sales tax,
while the federal government col
lects what might be called a SO
per cent sales tax on every pack
age of cigarettes, since of everv
Is cents spent for a package of
cigarettes, 6 cents or more than
one-third of the entire price,
goes to the government in taxes"
Governor EhringhauS pointed
out that the total of $192,000,-
900 a year collected from tObac-
co taxes was not collected from
North CarolinianS, since this
amount is merely collected from
the manufacturers here who pass
it on to consumers throughout
the United States. But he is
firmly convinced that the tobac-
co farmer paw at least from one
half to two-thirds of this tax in
the form of lower prices received
for their tobacco so that indirect
ly, the farmers of the state are
paying millions of dollars an
nually to the federal government.
He is convinced that if the tax
on tobacco should be decreased
by congress. such a reduction
would at once bring about high
er prices for the tobacco farm
ers as result of the increased
consumption that would result.

have laid the main emphasis upon
the decisions of the National and

recognition. Delegation after dele

Of empty promises.
Finally the National Labor Board
ordered an election. The Campbell

turn over the pay roll, and there
fore the vote cannot be held. The
officials again relied on the entire
capitalist machine.
In the meantime the Campbell
Soup is firing union members, and

Roosevelt Urges
More Direct Loans
To MOnOpOlieS
See Trend Toward More
Initiation in Passage
of Silver Bill

WASHINGTON, March 81. - The
pressure toward further imitation is
to make itself felt again,
latest developments in the capital
reveal.
Roosevelt has just made public
two letters sent to the chairmen Of
the banking and currency commit
tees in which he urges Congress to
give the Federal Reserve Bank power
to set up twelve regional govern
ment banks to give direct loans to
private industry.
The proposal TO lend government
funds to private industry is an ex-
tention of the present policy through
which the R. F. c. has already
granted more than $4,000, 100000
in subsidies to banks, railroads, in
surance and mortgage companies. 1t
is continuation of the policy Of
Hoover, who pursued the policy Of
trying to force bank loans into in
dustry through government banks.
The policy failed because the banks
could not find any borrowers with
adequate security.
Roosevelt's proposal is a step to-
ward further imitation, since it is
based upon lending government
funds to industries now unable to
get funds from the banks for lack
of assets having any value. It is
tantamount to an imitation Of credit
leading to an imitation of currency.
For bankrupt industry it simply
means easy government funds to
make up for the losses of the crisis,
Part Of the propaganda for the
measure Is that it will revive small
businesses. Leading credit experts
point out however, that small firms
will never be able to obtain any Of
the government funds for lack Of
any kind of proper security.
Pass Silver Bill
Late Monday, the Dies Silver
Bill was passed in the House by q
vote of 257 to liz over the wishes
of the administration as expressed
publicly by Secretary of the Treas
ury Morgenthau. The Bill provides
for the financing of agricultural ex-
ports with silver to be bought by
the government at price 25 per
cent above the world price level,
this silver to become the basis of
currency This is definitely inf1a-
tionary as it will tend to raise prices
at home in order to permit Ameri-
can cotton and other producers to
dump their products IN Far Eastern
markets.
