Bone Says Man

Eyed Fut ure''
Senator Advocates 3-Hour
Day if Necessary to
Prosperity


at birth, were the catch phrases Of
a blistering commentary on the ma
chine operated present-day world.
delivered by Homer T. Bone, cand-
idate for State Senator, In a cam
paign speech Tuesday evening at
Hotel Kennewick, at which he and
Representative Knute Hill were the
main speakers.
Here are q few OF his strokes Of
painting q beautiful, comfortable
life, made so by the ever widening
scope and accomplishments Of
science, but available to only ten
per centum Of the human beings
at any given time. The mAnlifact-
uring Of glass, fruit jars from the
sand and silica to the finished: pro-
duct, on board freight cars In card
board cartons, without the touch Of
human hands; the modern Aladdin
touch Of . button; sixty centuries Of
progress finding man now In trout
blous times, and facing q cock-eyed
future. 's'.ssf.s *
The speaker pointed out the
need for courage to fight for human
rights. He scored Democrats as well
as Republicans for being afraid to
hurt the feelings Of y. r. Morgan
and Eugene Grace" by making them
nay for the benefits they receive by
being Americans, citing the Panay
incident as an example. Regarding
war. Mr.. Bone said that we have
plenty right at home to keep US
busy; he advocates ornaments for
defense only. In the light Of adj
vancement Of science he advocates
a three hour work day II that Is
necessary to put every man to work.
He emphasized the need OF I'M
ports If we hope to export our sur
pluses.
He again signified his intent to
fight to the last for cheap power
throughout the state. predicting the
greatest fight Of all to be that about
to break with the completion OF
Coulee and Bonneville Dams.
Knute Hlu gave an accounting OF
his activities in the House OF Rep
resentatives. He said In part that
Democratic presidents had always
had the right ideas, but that Roose-
welt was the only one who had
made consistent effort to get them
carried out. He commented on the
rubber stamp" congress and its ire
uuent over-ridings Of the presi-
dents vetoes. He mentioned the
various agencies Of the government
that have proved beneficial from
security OF bank deposits to social
security. He discussed labor ana
agriculture as the foundation OF our
social structure, pointing to what
had been done by recent legislation.
He stated his consistent stand
against wars and isms, and his IN
tent to continue to battle Tor the
interests of his constituents.
G.. s. Holcomb presided over the
meeting. He introduced the can0-
dates for county offices, among
whom were M. N. Hudnall, cand-
date for county commissioners. third

PREPAID TAXES OF
CITY LESS 50 FAR
$11,223 To July 80, Com
pared With $14,512 To
Date Last Year

Prepaid taxes collected by the City
of Henderson through July 30 amount
ed to $11 22327, which was more than
$4,000 less than the $14,512.99 collect
ed to the same period year ago, City
Clerk S. B. Burwell announced today.
A discount of three percent is al
lowed on prepared taxes prior to July
1, and during July the discount is two
and half percent. More than half
the total payments to date were made
last month, and took the two and a
half percent discount.
The city's budget has not yet been
adopted, nor it's tax rate, and the tax
levy for the coming fiscal year is not
known, but those desiring to. take ad-
vantage of the high discount for early
settlement may remit at a figure to
cover the probable tax levy. Any sur
p.us is returned to them when the
tax rate is fixed and the levy COM
puted on individual property
Prepaid money cannot be apportion-
ed to the several city funds until the
rate is levied, so that the exact
amount each may be due can be as
certained.

measures in the 1887 session.
The legislation will not be outside
the purpose for which Governor Clyde
F.. Hoey called the special session,
Healy said, but will be merely an in
clusion of local units with the State
in authority to secure PWA grants for
necessary purposes.
"The governor has pointed out il
would be folly not to take advantage
of PWA funds for indispensable build
ing needs of State institutions" said
the NUM- official. ''It would be just as
much folly not to permit the local
units to do likewise by giving them
authority to issue revenue bonds for
essential and desirable projects such
as construction of waterworks and
sewerage systems, swimming pools
public markets, abattoirs, recreation
parks and similar enterprises"
He pointed out that such legislation
was enacted in 1885, with a time limit
which has since expired. Similar bills
were fought for in the 1887 session
but failed of passage under a tremen-
dous barrage backed by all the power
interests of the State, which feared
many municipalities would go in for
construction and operation of power
plants.
Mr. Healy said there is a clear dis
tinction between revenue bonds and
general obligation bonds of municipal
tiles. The revenue bonds for which au-
thority will be sought would not Gre
ate any general debt against the is
suing units, as they are to be retired
by revenue derived from the project
for which they are issued. The SUI
preme Court of North Carolina has
held that these bonds are not debts
of the units.
Many municipalities in North Car
DINA are verv anxious to take advan
tage of PWA funds for construction
of waterworks and sewer systems
Healy said, and will do so if they arr
| rbIe.
There are no municipalities which
want to issue bonds for the purpos
| of building or operating power plants
| in Healy's opinion-a fact which
should go far toward lessening powe
company hostility.
In addition, he pointed out, Score
tary of the Interior Harold Ickes ha
pledged there will be no grants mad
for this purpose except in cases wher
private utilities have refused to SCI
out to municipalities for a REASONABLE
| figure.

ton, quite naturally, did not feature
the power phase of the matter. 1t ar
gued that the proposal to permit re-
venue bonds did not make the units
subjest to the constitutional limitation
on the debt which may be incurred;
that it did not require an election to
authorize issue of the bonds; that the
bills did not require quorum of local
officials to be present when authority
for revenue bonds was given; that
bonds issued would not require ap-
proval of the Local Government Com
mission.
Proponents, headed by the MUM
League, answered that inasmuch as
revenue bonds do not create any
"debt," as construed by the courts,
the issues quite properly were not
subject to the limitations nor did they
need an election. The mo quorum
issue was scoffed at on the grounds
that no business of any kind could be
transacted by local units unless g
quorum was, in fact, present. Friends
of the bill were willing to accept an
amendment requiring approval of tho
Local Government Commission, ant
such a provision will probably be in
serted in the bills to be presented
next week. 1t was argued that au-
thority for revenue bonds did not in
crease the powers of local units ex
cept in that one particular.
