EDITORIAL

Work on the low cost houses In Chris.
dansted has not been started 1t is rumor
ed that no such houses will be built In
this town. 1t appears that the delay is
caused by the difficulty in obtaining
land on which to buHd these houses. Ne.
gotiations were in progress for a acre
section in close proximity to Water Gut.
The owners finally reconsider ed and declin-
ed to sell. Other sites have been propos:
ed and in all probability one of these
sites will be purchased.
An increasing population will be fol
lowed by demand for houses, and there
is no apparent intention among the real
estate owners in this town to build hous-
es The investment is large, then the
houses must be insured against fire and
hurricane. To these must be adaped taxes
and the cost of upkeep. The returns from
this investment are slow and Except bust
ness rigidity be used) is to some extent
uncertain.
Apart from the present or future need
of houses in this community the build
ing project will afford employment to
both skilled and unskilled workers.
There is one unfortunate aspect-the
houses will not be sold to the occupants as
as was at first proposed. Uncle Sam will
continue to act as landlord and, another
regrettable feature is that the old man stub
bornly refuses to pay taxes.
With the purchase of the Bartram Broth
ers estates the major part of the good land
will belong to him and he is expanding in
the acquisition of real estate.
If he will not pay taxes he should pay
the cost of running the police and possibly
the health departments That would pre-
vent the over burdening of his poor
nephews and nieces, many of whom find it
difficult to meet their present tax obliga
lions.

This community is about to lose
a friend in the person of Adutant Mary
Goddard, who came to our little island
over years ago entirely unknown and
knew no one; during that time everyone
has learnt to know and respect her. Ac.
cording to the rule she has sverstayed
her time by several years but her con-
gregation managed to secure her services
twice and tried again for a third time.
This time Headquarters couldn't make it,
as result she leaves us on the 18th of the
present month.
When she came it appears that the
membership had dwindled to numerical in
significance she worked hard to build it
up again and is leaving a much easier
task for her successor.
The secret of Adjutant Goddard's sue
cess lies in the fact that she regards the
needs of humanity as more important
than forms of religion
Everybody was her friend: she lent
willing ear to their sad stories and was
ready with an advice TO soothe the trou-
bled minds.
Many went to see the sick and turned
away: Adjutant Goddard went to do SEINE
thing for the sick and, not infrequently
spent the night administering to them.

TAXES FOR EVERYBODY!

A noted humorist, asked recently
what was the best laugh topic, replied
Taxes! Everybody pays them"
But while we laugh, the cost of gov
ernment-national, state and local
climbs and climbs. And John Citizen
pays dearly for his laughs. Today there
is an invisible guest who sits at the table
of every family in this country He is the
invisible tax eater that collects the hidden
taxes. When the housewife purchases
three pork chops, the butcher weighs them
out but only wraps up one. The third he
gives to this invisible guest.
This steady sapping of the nation in
come to meet public expenses was cited by
Lewis H. Brown, president of the Johns
Manville Corporation, in recent address
to the American Bankers Association.
ut is useless to attempt to solve this
problem in terms of parties" Mr.. Brown
said, 'for no matter what the label, the
costs of government apparently continue
to mount and taxes are further increased.
The only possible solution, it seems to me,
lies in the education of the individual citi-
zen in the fundamental facts that all the
people support the government and that
the government cannot support all the
people.
Somehow we must make every last
man and woman and child realize that no
matter whether taxes are paid directly or
not, no citizen can escape paying his share
of the cost of government that comes
through the hidden taxes that are buried
in every single purchase that he makes
with his hard earned dollar"
Here is a task for everyone, Mr..
Brown points out, adding:
Everyone agrees that the cost of
government must be reduced and that
taxes should be cut Here, at last, is one
subject on which all citizens can agree, ir=
respective of nationality, or of color, or of
religion, or politics.
''Some people think that all we need
is new mayor, or a new governor, or a
new Congress. But what we really need
is an aroused public opinion demanding
that the cost of government must be re-
duced."
