S~TRANGLING INITIATIVE

VIII Rogers, by his native abil-
ity and thrift, left an estate val
ued at between two and one-half
and five million dollars. 1t has
been announced that state and
federal inheritance taxes Will
claim some $650,000 If the estate
totals two and one half million, or
81, 716,OOO if the estate totals five
millions.
Proposals to 'soak the rich
through new and greater inheri-
lance taxes, which Mr.. Rogers
family escaped, would 90 far to-
ward destroying the savings of
his lifetime.
On the savings and wealth-de-
stroying path we are travelling,
there is less and less Incentive for
American citizens to exercise
there is less and less INCENTIVE for
in the past on projects which
create employment and prosper
ity. If they fail, that's just too
bad-the tax collector does not
share in the loss. He only takes
the profits and savings.

IN THE NAME OF JUSTICE

Recently the Supreme Court of
the State of Washington rendered
an epochal decision.
Washington and Oregon passed
a law a year or two ago whereby
the state utility regulatory com
missions were empowered to as
sess against utility companies the
costs Of Investigations for rate
making purposes. Other states
have considered following these
examples.
Now the Supreme Court has de-
cided, in a biting decision, that
the act is unconstitutional. The
decision pointed out that the act
made it possible for regulatory
authorities to initiate and conduct
one investigation after another
against a utility company until
a particular utility is destroyed -
And the justices added, "TWe see
no reasonable protection from
persecution
This decision is important be-
cause 1t is In the interest Of JUS
tiee, of the American spirit of
fair play Rate-making investiga-
tions initiated by the state, are
primarily designed to benefit con-
sumers. They are a purely public
function-and they should be paid
for In the manner of pulic func-
tons, all the people There is no
justification for an act which
forces the stockholders of a com
pan to pay out hundreds Of thous-
sands Of dollars to meet the cost

~ demanded, which a eliminate

ted by law to a on their in

During the past year, there
have been a number Of decisions.
by state an feeral courts alike,
Of exceptional Importance. These
decisions have affirmed and re-
affirmed American principles and
constitutional rights-they have
prevented the gravest kinds Of
injustice, and perversion Of tax
ing and legislative power. This
new decision, by the Supreme
Court Of Washington, stands high
on that distinguished list.

SOMEBODY ELSE'S
WHITE ELEPHANT

At the twenty-fifth annual SEES

Congress complaint was made
that more automobiles than farms
are owned by Oregon farmers
that only $3.50 of the farms in

there was insufficient electrical
pumping and irrigation for farm
prosperity. Naturally, with the

A ID ID CAUSE
OF ACCIDENTS

The more traffic experts study
the accident toll, the more they
become convinced that there is an
important hidden" cause Of
many automobile accidents This
lurking agent Of death and injury
is carbon monoxide poisoning.
Carbon monoEide gas develops
when any fuel-coal, wood, gaso-
lines or Illuminating gas-does
not burn properly or completely
1t cannot be seen, smelled or
tasted. It's only warnings are
headache and drowsiness. Yet it
is in the air wherever there is
motor traffic. The exhaust Of a
car, even one in good running
condition, contains a concentra-
ton of fifteen per cent Of it. As
little as two per cent In the air
will poison, and four per cent will
kill.
Statistics show, according to
the National Bureau of Casualty
and Surety Underwriters, that
carbon monoxide from auto ex-
haust gases is the direct cause
given in at least TOO deaths an
nually. No one knows nor can
guess how many lives are lost in
directly through its influence.
For example, there is no telling
how often that common driving
occurrence, "'sleep at the Wheel,
has been induced by carbon mon
oxide.
All motorists are familiar with
the headache and laSsitude which
often come upon them while driv-
ing. These signs, coupled with the
doors of exhaust fumes in a
moving vehicle, are final warn
ings that carbon mOnoxide is pre-
sent in lethal quantities. They
should be more than sufficient
notice to take the necessary meas
ures against carbon monoxide
poisoning. This means regular
checking of the exhaust mechan-
ism and the carburetor action.
keeping the vehicle well ventilat-
ed when driving, eliminating any
leaks or holes which allow seep-
age from the motor or exhaust to
the body Of the ear.
HOuShOlders should also cOnSid-
er that carbon monoxide poison
ing is a possibility whenever fuel
is burned in the home Coal, gas,
stove, furnace and oil burner
companies can give advice on pre-
causions that will afford safety
from this invisible death.
