Would Welcome
Early Test OF
AAA's Validity
Md. Farm Bureau Official Says
Opponents Have No Substitute
For Adjustment Act

The steady accumulation of suits
fled by professors of, farm produce
in the hope of avoiding or recovering
process taxes, is prompting farmers
to demand showdown on the con-
stitutionality Of the triple A" pro-
gram-and the sooner it comes the
better, according to C. E. Wise, Jr.,
head of the Maryland Farm Bureau
Federation.
More than one thousand separate
suits have been filed to date in the
various Federal courts throughout
the country, and as they continue to
pile up, farm resentment seems to
increase in like proportion. In
Kansas, two weeks ago, local mill
ing firm which had previously filed
suit to avoid payment of process
taxes on grain, promptly withdrew
lit in the face of an organized boy
colt.
While sentiment for the AAA in
Maryland, according ito Mr.. Wise
may be equally strong, most farmers,
he says, are pinning their hope on
an early and favorable decision by
the Supreme Court.
It is notorious FACT" Mr.. Wise
declared, shat the enemies of the
present agricultural program have
offered no substitute for the program
which they seem so bent on destroy

ready to map out replacing legisla-

last years drought. In the corn belt
alone" he said, "the decrease from
June 1, 1874, was nearly 5000, 900
head-or about 81 per cent"
"The great majority of American
farmers, Mr.. Wise says, "are con-
WINGED that the best interests of both
farmers and consumers are bound
up with the retention of the AAA
as an approach to the goal of bal

Sen. Stedman Prescott
Claims Promises Have
Not Been Kept

It has been very interesting to OBJ
serve the many excuses the Fusion
Party has been trying to give to the
taxpayers in justifying their unpre-
cedented and unheard of increases of
sixty cents in the local County Tax
rate. This means that the taxpayers
of Montgomery County will be requir-
ed to pay five hundred and thirty
thousand, four hundred and thirty ad-
ditional dollars annually than was re-
quired under the former administra-
ton. Analysed further it means four
teen hundred and fifty additional dol
lars, each and every day for the tax
payers to put up. Naturally they are
manufacturing any and every possible
excuse to give as a reason for this
tremendous burden placed upon the
taxpayers. It is absolutely necessary
because during the last campaign they
repeatedly told the taxpayers that the
taxes were too high, there had been
waste and extravaganza, and if elected
they would remedy these evils or in
other words reduce taxes. would like
to take up some of these reasons" as
gathered here and there from the
street and comment upon them.
In vain attempt to palliate their
failure to live up to the promises
made, they quite frequently say this
increase is due to the financial condi-
ton of the County at the time the
three Fusion Commissioners went into
Office or in common parlance ito pay
off the Democratic Party's Debt" The
taxpayers in this County should be
appraised of the fact and realize that
the present County Commissioners
have not paid off one dollar of any
bonded indebtedness of the County
and the present budget with the sixty
cent increased tax rate does not call
for the payment of one single dollar
thereof. Even though they severely
criticized the policy of refunding
bonds at maturity, they have refunded
every bond that has matured since
they have been in Office and their
present budget calls for refunding
each and every one to mature during
the present fiscal year. This statement
can be easily verified by any citizen
of the County by merely going to the
Court House and examining the
records and when this fact is realized
| is there any foundation whatsoever
for the statement that this terrific in
crease is to "pay off former indebted
nesses"?
have also heard it said that the
school budget was increased by one
hundred and sixty Thousand dollars
and the County Commissioners are re-
quired by law to accept this increase.
This is absolutely an inaccurate
statement and one deliberately made
to mislead. It tries to create the i'm
preston that one hundred and sixty
thousand additional dollars will be
spent by the school system this year.
Mr.. Edwin W. Broome, Superintend-
dent of Schools, informs me that this
is not correct. It is true that the
County levy for schools last year was
not as high as it is this and the reas-
or therefore is, under the former
Democratic Administration, the Coun-

Was The Fusion Party Justified
In Raising The County Tax Rate?
(Yes!)
Ira C. Whitacre Says
Democrats Left Us In
Bad Financial Shape

Montgomery County was governed
many years by the Democratic Party
and for the last decade and a half the
party has been dominated by a poll
tical boss. Under this rule many hum
dreds of miles of improved roads were
constructed and many schools and
other public buildings erected. It was
the era of public improvement.
To finance these improvements
large sums Of money were needed. It
would be neither practical nor desir-
able to construct system of roads
or system of schools from direct
taxation or on the pay-as-you-go plan.
1t is acknowledged to be the better
policy to borrow money for immediate
construction and let the public enjoy
the improvements while paying for
them. Such policy is sound if not
abused. If money is borrowed, how
ever, for unnecessary roads, unneces-
sary schools, or for any unnecessary
purpose, it is wrong. Borrowed money
must be repaid with interest and the
ability to pay, whether individual or
county, should be taken into consider
alton. Excessive borrowings for I'M
necessary county improvements are
manifest indiscretions of the political
predecessors of the Fusion Party.
The Fusion-controlled government
is now graphing with the results of
these indiscretions. 1t is endeavoring
to right the wrongs and to guard
against the commission of similar
wrongs. However, even in violation of
this principle the Fusion Party con-
siders it the better business to bor-
row if necessary to finish the con-
struction of any road or any school
partly completed. 1t would seem the
better part of wisdom for instance to
build two miles of the Viers Mill Road
and thereby render useful five or six
miles of improved road that otherwise
would be of little use.
Other than this the declared policy
of the Fusion government is not to in
crease the county debt. The debt now
totals nearly ,000,000.0O and the
annual interest exceeds $425, 900. 90.
The payment of this interest alone
requires tax rate increase of nearly
30 cents on each $100 of assessed
value. To borrow money to pay inter
est is folly. 1t makes matters worse.
You can't borrow yourself out of debt.
The suggestion reminds me of one of
trying to lift himself by his boot
straps.
This policy of paying will neces-
state an increased tax rate for a
time, but only for time. AS the debt
is reduced the tax rate will automatic
ally decrease. And remember the
primary cause for the present tax rate
increase is the County debt, and the
debt was made by the predecessors of
the Fusion Party. Therefore, the
Fusion party is not responsible for
the present increase in said tax rate.
In passing let it not be forgotten that
had not the bonds maturing this year
been refunded the county tax rate
would have been about $500 on each
$4,000 of assessed value. Let the
complaining taxpayer mediate on
this: Think what might have been.

Library Fine Arts Head to
Give Views at Hearing
Wednesday Morning.

DR.. Leicester B. Holland, chief of the
Fine Arts Division Of the Library Of
Congress and chairman Of the Com
mittee on Preservation of Historic
Buildings Of the American Institute Of
Architects, will appear at the hearing
Wednesday morning on the bill which
has passed the Senate for extension
of the central portion of the east front
of the Capitol, before the House Com
mittee on Public Buildings and
Grounds.
This is the first voice in opposition
to the proposed plan which has been
in contemplation since 1858 and
favorably urged by all Of the archi-
tects of the Capitol and unanimously
by consulting architects who studied
and reported upon the problem. This
extension was included in the original
plans of Thomas u. Walter, under
whose administration the dome and
north and south wings were erected.
The only disagreement has been as to
just how far the proposed extension
eastward should go.
DR.. Holland proposes to oppose the
work on four grounds-sentimental,
archaeological. esthetic and economic.
He points out that the burning Of the
