THE TAX MERRY-GO-ROUND

What in the world do taxes buy?
Why should they go higher than high?
What is bought and what is sold?
Who gets what, and what is gold?
Who pays taxes?-Everyone;
Why pay taxes?-Just for fun.
Where does all the money go
That the poor taxee has to hoe?
Who put on these taxes great?
Why shouldn't the taxpayer sing hymn oil
hate?
When the sales tax was put on all,
Ah!-That was Panacea for US all.
What's the reaction TO that plan?
RAISE REAL ESTATE TAXES on every man.
Why the fear to refuse TO pay?
Oh. the bogie man will take your home away
Why is the bogie man-Want to know?
He's the guy We elected, So
The servant becomes the master of state;
The man who pays is the Serf to wait
Til the politicians have drained him dry,
Left his bones to bleach on the desert-Why?
oh, because blood doesn't from turnip run
Then who'll lay the taxer-Just for fun?

Ell CENTRO BUILDING
REFLECTS THE TIMES

BY the time you read this, or very
shortly after at any rate, the Ell Centro
building permit total for the year may
have passed the quarter-million dollar
mark. Before the end of the year, un-
doubtedly, building record will have
been established that will surpass those
of most recent years in total value and
probably will surpass records of all
time in at least one respect-the nature
of the building represented.
The large building permit total this
year is made up of the most desirable
type of building, reflected in permits
for comparatively small sums. These
permits represent repairs to dwellings,
repairs to business houses, enlargement
and alteration of both classes of build
ing, and construction of individual
homes. There is no one outstandingly
large permit. such as that of one recent
year for construction of the postoffice,
which makes the total reflect false
picture. This years total is founded on a
sound base.

GUARDING AGAINST
PETTY THFEVERY

It is the time of year, once again, when
Imperial county residents must watch
their latch strings and automobile locks.
Transients attracted here by gracious
climate, and some called by the rush of
the harvesting season in lettuce and
other crops, bring with them the danger
of petty thievery and worse.
There is no better advice to house
holders at times like this than to lock
doors at night, and when away from
home. To shoppers who leave bundles
in their automobiles parked downtown,
the best advice is to always lock their
automobile doors. Each season the theft
of articles from unlocked automobiles
rolls up an appalling total in value.
Best advice of all, insofar as the COM
munity is concerned, might be to cooper
ate with the police against all manner
of law violators by notifying the police
of all suspicious characters lettering
about any neighborhood. Officers can
not be everywhere at once, but with
public help they can do much more to
curb the wave of petty crime which is
to be expected in the next few weeks.

NATIONS CAN BE FOOLISH
AS WELL AS INDIVIDUALS

The duelling Budapestian is no more
foolish in his way than the German Nazi
government in its way The Nazis may
be right according to their own lights
in claiming that they have been insulted
by the award of the Nobel peace prize
Carl Won Ossietzky, German pacifist,
sentenced in Germany as traitor"
According to the broader view, the Nazis
are insanely childish in their protest.
Germany, by officially opposing the
award, presents the absurd picure of
government aligning itself against a
committee One almost expects to hear
next that the Nazis have declared war
on the Nobel award committee

You Can't Get Away From 1t All

/ from American and British industry
and finance in the form of dividend
and interest checks and so on.
Furthermore, these latter : day
Adams will need furniture, food
stuffs, gadgets such as radios and
iceboxes and siphons, clothing,
books. and all manner of incident
ais: and these products of the civil
ization they are trying to escape
will be bought with the money
which that civilization produces.
If they are tired of civilization,
of President Roosevelt and Premier
Baldwin. of New Deals and war
scares. they can get away from it
all only by landing naked on some
lonely shore and hewing out their
living with their bare hands.
Their present scheme no more
cuts them off from civilization than
does trip to the top floor of the
Empire State Building. The, folks
back home will still be supporting
them.
And if war, depression, or revolu-'
ton hits America and England, of
course, these island refugees will be
the very first to sink beneath the
waves.
X Il X
1t all adds up, of course, to the
simple fact that there can be no
real escape from the modern world.
We may thing it's fine world q
we may think it's the worst world
possible-but, hot or cold, We have
to take it and like it.
Since we can't get away-since
all of us are going to sink or swim
together-isn't it a mans part to
stay on the job and make the best
of it, rather than to hunt up a re-
mote burrow where he can stick his
ostrich-head in the palm -fringed

GOOD INTENTIONS
GO FAR ASTRAY

The sob sisters of some California
newspapers have recently begun a cam
paign to furnish more blind persons
with so-called eye-dogs, lamenting the
fact that of the 1000 blind persons in
California, perhaps not more than 20
are privileged to have guide dogs. The
campaign is a good example of good
intentions misdirected.
The facts are, the Braille Institute of
America points out, that relatively few
of the blind persons can use guide dogs
consistently and practically, and fewer
still can afford to feed and care for
them properly. The number who want
the dogs is greatly exaggerated.
Perhaps the best argument against
the plan is that, while the dogs are rep
resented as costing only 500 or $125
EACH the actual cost, including training
and teaching the blind to use them, is
about $1,000 apiece. The taxpayers of
California, sympathizing with the plight
of the blind would much rather see
their money spent to provide worth
while employment and recreation for
them.

The New York stock broking
gentleman who was going to sell
his quail farm and move to Canada
if the nation didn't vote right seems
to have changed his mind, but his
place has been. taken by well-to-
do New Englander
This man is not heading for
Canada, but for some island in the
Bahamas. He sailed from New
York the other day announcing
that the presidential election dis
pleased him. that he was fed up
with American civilization anyhow
and that, in company with a few
wealthy Englishmen, who feel much
the same way about their own
fatherland, he is going to establish
a safe retreat in the Caribbean Sea-.
He and his British friends plan
to buy an island outright. They
are all pretty we'll heeled, SO their
retreat will lack few comforts.
There will be room for other
wealthy Americans and Englishmen
who can't stand the pressure at
home.
Now the first fact that leaps to
the mind about this little venture
is that the retreat from civilization
will be sham rather than a reali-
ty. The, owners of this island Eden
will need money to keep it going; /;

THE DUELLING GENTLEMAN
OF BUDAPEST

A sense of humor might help relieve
the strain on the honor of the gentleman
in Budapest who seems on the way to
fighting a duel with every one of his
countrymen because he thinks they have
insinuated that he married for money.
The American brand of humor, however,
might be too much for him.
We have in mind the American who
accepted a duelling challenge and chose
as his weapon "a scatter gun at 20
paces." His opponent decided against
the duel.
Civilization has done much for man,
but in two ways at least man has not
kept up with civilization. He still fights
duels. and he still goes to war.
