time to begin such saving, and
helping him figure out how long it
will take to get the required sum
together. Emergencies must be
handled so that the child will not
become much discouraged. Match
ing the child's savings occasionally
is one way Of handling the unfore-
seen expense.
Sometimes parents who have
started the allowance plan, drop it
because the child seems to be
wasting his money on trivial things,
but If they paused to add up, for a
week or a month, all the pennies
and nickels asked for and spent on
ephemeral things, they would Of
ten find the sum exceeding that of
the original allowance.
Only when he knows what he
can count on, can the child plan
ahead and save for definite things.
And in no other way can he be
taught the value of money or the
sacrifice of immediate desires to
save for something more worth
while.

Legislators to
Give Tax Views
High Taxes Likely VIII Be Biggest
Issue of Coming Legislative
Campaign

Minnesota has been broadening
the Tax base for 35 years, but des-
pite this broadening process, taxes
on the oldest source of all-land-
have been growing at a rapid rate.
It is plain, therefore, that no mat
ter how much new money can be
found for government purposes,
taxes will never be reduced unless
public spending is curtailed, a state
ment by the Minnesota Taxpayers
association points out.
"This is why Inconsistencies
is becoming a new word in the vo-
cabulary Of the average American
citizen, even though it may not yet
be a word in common usage in gov
eminent circles. This is an i'm
portant reason why taxes cannot be
reduced unless the citizen himself
takes the matter in his own hands,
James P. Mcdonnell, president of
the association, stated.
1.-The people have the whip hand
if they want to use it. They can
elect legislators who are pledged to
economy and tax reform measures
in this state. Tax groups have just
issued a candidates questionable
for the purpose of placing legisla-
tive candidates on record.
IF the voters of Minnesota de-
sire to get relief from high taxes,
these voters will force the issue,
they will make high taxes the big
gest issue in the coming campaign,
and they will not give support to
any man who disregards the wei
fare of his community and his state
by trying to evade this most i'm
portant issue of taxation REFORM

decided by himself and he is well
started on the gradually more COM
plicated budgeting required of him
as he grows up.
won't this early planning for
the spending of money make the
child too mercenary-put too much
stress on money!" parents often
ask. Not when we are careful to
make the child's allowance part of
the systematic family routine of
planning expenditures together;
then there will not be too much
emphasis on money in the child's
mind.
eff a child spends his allowance
before the week is up, and then
needs money for something really
necessary, shall we let him borrow
ahead?" is another frequent ques-
ton.
The whole allowance plan may
be wrecked at this point. Advanc-
ing on the allowance should be
done in very exceptional cases only,
lest the child get the borrowing ha-
bit and habitually be behind. One
