WAR TALK CREATES STIR IN
 FAR EAST.

TOKYO, Dec. 27.-In an atmos- .phere electric with alarming possi- !. bilities, Emperor Hirohito opened the regular session of the Japanese Diet, which approved the cabinet $ record billion yen budget
 Increase in friction with the So- .viets, a more expansive policy in Manchukuo and China, naval build ing race with the United States and England, and .habitual war talk in vernacular newspapers, were factors that turned the eyes of the world ! Japan.
 With negotiations for Russia's /. interest in the Chinese-Eastern Railway across Manchukuo practic- ally completed, the main difficulty aof Japan seems to be Vladivostok.
 Strong Notifications at the USSR backdoor, backed by submarines, which have recently been built aad the economic development in the Vladivostok region standout.

TAXES AND MORE TAXES,

The average man isNSf6t greatly disturbed by his
tax BILL although he complains about 1t rather
vocferously from time to time, and especially at
that moment when he must pay tt, Here in Stanly
county the man who owns property must pay TAX
to help operate the county government IL ne lives
in Albemarle or any of the other Incorporated
towns of the county he pays property tax 70 the
munieipalfty In addition, there are schedules OF
license and privilege taxes which must be paid by
certain types of merchants and dealers to the town
and county. a., -. yr
The state collects an income tax from ndividu-
ais as we'll as corporations, and it also collects
schedule of privilege and franchise taxes from Va
rous types of business and manufacturing con-
Germs. The sales tax which is collected by the state
reaches into every persons pocket and the gaso-
line taxes touch every person who operates motor
vehicle.
+. The federal government collects a schedule of
nuisance taxes, included in which is tax on gaso-
line It likewise collects an income tax from ind-
viduals as we'll as corporations, and the corpora
tions also paw capital stock tax to the federal
government The corporation pays 13 3-4 per cent
of all the money it earns to the federal government
as we'll as per cent to the state government III
North Carolina. The individual with an income OF
million dollars year pays approximately $500
600 to Uncle Sam. 49,. . :.>..-..r',fyl <-fp
Now President Roosevelt has called for increases
in federal taxes in order to distribute wealth, or
more accurately to take everything from those who
have in order to furnish cash operate the federal
government Again we say that the average man IS
not disturbed over the Presidents proposed, but we
want to point out that rumors are already belng
heard that the next move will be to tax incomes in
the lower brackets which means that the man
with an income of few thousand dollars year
will be forced to pay a big tax on it. ~, ..y..s
Some man said long time ago that 1.-The best
governed people are those who are least governed,
and we are coming to realize that he spoke the
truth Simply stated, our governmental bill is about
to get bigger than are able to pay and it spells
ultimate ruin for the country. ., ........ .,,...
Right here in Albemarle and Stanly county, the
FERA, a federal organization, is wasting money
that will have to be paid back in the years to come
and the same thing is happening in every one OF
the 5000 or more counties in the United States.
We can sit idly by and allow the whole economic
structure in the country wiped out by growing
governmental expenses, we can raise storm
of protest and keep is raised long enough, until
all the surplus government which we do not need
is abolished The choice is ours to make.-Stany

LONG PLAINLY SHOWS HIS HAND

Huey Long is doing thorough job. He is max
ing himself Enthusiastically the dictator of Louisiana.
For years he has had the state government under
his control, and now he is taking over the local
governments as we'll. The legislature has passed
bills that enable him to hire and fire all local en-
ployes including school teachers. The assistant
district attorneys in New Orleans will be hired by
Long but unwilhngly paid by the city. Longs state
tax collector will collect all city taxes in New Or
leans.
Hard as this program may be on the intelligent
and honest citizenry of Louisiana, perhaps the
country as a whole will ultimately be the better
off because Huey Long shows his hand so openly
and so soon. For unless the United States supreme
court should decide that these Louisiana enact
nents are in violation of the federal Constitution,
Louisiana will shine dazzlingly the only Ameri-
can state that has ever passed completely into the
grip Of one man.
And the American people will be able to see
what is in store for them if any man of that type
should rise to the top of the United States govern
ment. They will have received full warning that
what Huey Long has done in Baton Rouge can be
done in Washington; that bold demagogue will
not hesitate to seize the control of every govern
mental job and power-federal, state and local
in every corner of the country.-Business Week
