Stafford King, state auditor, appear
ing before a joint committee of the
House and Senate, gave his views on
tax REVISION. He said that the tax
base ought to be broadened so that
everybody pays something. "This," he
said, would give everybody a finan-
cial interest in his government.
Noble words! The poor laborer who
now can afford to buy only seven
loaves of bread a week for his family
can have a financial interest in his
government by buying only six
lOaves, the seventh going in his new
investment. Those who believe in tax
payment according to ability to pay
are in reality depriving the poor of
their right to pay taxes, according to
this new tax gospel.

fish should pay for wolf bounties has
never been made clear, except that
this is the easiest fund to raid. The
purpose of killing off the wolves is
that they exterminate cattle. A game

 Italians Push Over Border
 Authoritative sources in Addis Ab- aba said that the superior would order general mobilization of all his man power tomorrow morning.

 Urges Peace
 He gave notice that the American people intend and expecs to remain at peace with an the world.

 The President declared the two most menacing claims that hang over human government and human society are malice and foreign war" He stated that never was there more genuine reason for Americans to face down these two causes of fear.

In face of this apprehension, the American people can have but one concern and speak but one senti- ment despite what happens over- seas.
