Feats in Tax-Eatinq

Some kinds of transportation are
unable to stand on their own feet. To
keep them going, it has been necessary to
pour billions of your tax dollars into them.
The inland waterways probably are the
worst examples. For instance, the Upper
Mississippi River, from Minneapolis to
St. Louis.
When you total up the tax dollars that
have been lavished on this Improve
ment," and figure interest at 4 per cent,
and add the annual cost of maintaining
dams, locks and channel, you discover
that to provide Cheap transportation
for those who can ship by river, it is
costing the taxpayers about $3.50
for every ton of freight Aoated.
The subsidy alone amounts to
about tDice vhat the railroads would

Highway transportation also leans

ofhomes and farms and by other general
taxpayers.
All of the various kinds of special taxes
imposed on motor vehicles-many as
they are represented to be, and mounting
to really impressive totals-have been
equivalent only to about one-haH of the
cost Of maintaining and improving high
ways, bridges, roads and streets.
And this leaves nothing to compare
with the taxes imposed on railroad trans
portation for the support of schools and
the various other functions of govern
ment-which take about 10 cents of every
dollar the railroads collect from their
patrons.
Against such competitive odds as these,
your railroad fights to maintain that

Economy Comes Herd

AS has ever been the case, the Joint
House and Senate Economy Commit
tee seems to be discovering that there
is vast difference between CONVEX
sational economy ard the actual rec
ommending of specific reductions in
Federal OUTLAWS.
Most members of the Joint commit
tee. from present indications, have
MADE up their minds to put off the
pairing process until next year. SEN
ator Byrd.of Virginia has expressed
his belief that cuts can and should
be made IN this years appropriations.
but no other member has indicated
that he holds a similar view.
1t should be possible to obtain a
clearer picture of Just what may be
expected when the committee re-
celVeS the three-Way report which the
Budget Bureau has been asked to
make, indicating how cuts of one,
one and half and two billion dollars
can be made in the $4,000 100000 out
lay for non defense items. The COM
mlttee members seem to be strongly
opposed to blanket percentage re-
auction IN non-defense items, point
ing out that the Governments fixed
charges make this impracticable.
That, however, leaves as the only al
tentative a selective process, under
which less essential individual ap-
preparations would be trimmed or
eliminated.
ThlS Is a hard process, since it in
wolves what may seem to be diScrim-
nation against the pet projects of
Individual members and is apt to be
countered by log-rolling tactics. At
the same time, however, it must be
recognized that there is no easy way
to economy. As Chairman Cannon
OF the House Appropriations Commit
tee expressed it, 1T is easy to raise
appropriations and difficult to cut
them"
That, as far as it goes, is true. But,
CHAIRMAN Cannon might have added,
1t also will be difficult to convince
the public that everything is all right
IN Congress if the proceeds of higher
and higher taxes are to be spent
neeoleSsly on non-esSential projects.
Either course-economy or unchecked
spending-is hard one, but it is still
not too late to hope that Congress,
having in mind the critical state of
the Nations finances, will at least
make start this year on the former.
