KEEP STATE INCOME TAXES
morris Tribune)

!. Reduction of unnecessary and ex-
trayagant spending has always been
the key to tax reduction rather than
the cutting off of this or that tax
and putting the burden elsewhere.
This reasoning plainly applies to
the proposal to reduce the state
income tax as means Of reducing
the tax burden now that the Federal
income tax has become so heavy.
The main reason for keeping the
state income tax is that every cent
SO collected operates to reduce the
general property tax-mainly a tax
ON farms and homes-necessarily the
most uncertain and ineqmtable of all
forms of taxation.
Revenues from the state income
tax are especially dedicated to equal
izing the educational opportunities
Of the boys and girls of the state.
Here are two good reasons why
the present state income tax should
not be disturbed.

DESTROY THE WAR MONGERs
Editor ASkov American:

cQItOl <AShOS t<AhASA A~oAA.
"He who lives by the sword shall
perish by the sword" so reads an
old adage, which has withstood the
silly sentimental gush of turning the
other cheek, for ages. Turning the
other cheek was tried some rs years
ago and failed miserably. "The Tiger
of France, was right.
AS the. war approaches its crisis
and end, an effort will undoubtedly
be made in some quarters to turn
it into "a gentleman's game" mere
misunderstanding among the leaders
of Europe. However, the three lead
ers of the United States, Britain and
Russia can be relied on to prevent
this. They should have full supper,
in seeing to it that the Axis GRIM
inals are punished according to JUS
tice. After the last war the dupes
and the cannon fodder were punished
and the real instigators lived in lux
ury and glory. There can be nc
greater crime against posterity and
the present than to let this happen
again. tt 80 t.
Many ideals are now advanced tc
prevent war. The best preventative
for war is. to punish those who start
war. Germany, Italy and Japan
started this. one and the Allies can
write page, into history that will
stand as guiding light throughout
eternity, as to what happens to war
mongers. Such warning will have
more weight in preventing future
wars than. the many schemes now
being advanced, many of which mere
ly lead to war.
The main thing now is to steel the
world to demand that the price OF
starting war is death. The common
people of the Axis countries can par

ALL MUST HELP
Editor Askov American:


We have been fighting terrific
war for more than a year now and
most of US realize that we are all
in it. BY all, we mean every man,
woman and child, every resource
from farm, to factory, to mine.
People aretrleaving their homes
to go where they can be OF more use,
in factories,,aiu mines and on the
farms. Some quit certain jobs and
go to others where the pay is greater
and usually their services are of
much more benefit to the cause.
We are making thousands of planes,
and tanks, and ships for our armed
forces and far,our Allies. That is
not all. We are packing food, cloth
ing and tools to 60 along with these
machines of war. Every plane, tank
or truck that goes out now has with
it tools for repair and if you know
all the tools it takes to repair a plane
you can make list and see what
you get. 49, -. '.-
Nearly everywhere people believe
that they are doing their share to
help win the war. Some of these
people are fooling themselves, be-
cause if they are not producing some
thing or doing something that bears
directly on the. war effort, they are
not doing enough. Every man, wom-
an, boy and girl must be working,
if nowhere else, then on the farm.
Let's not let the cost worry us,
we'll all pay it together by "coopera-
ton" Let's not let labor, capitalism
or socialism dampen. our, efforts in
any way. It, would have been fine
if there was ne profit in war, but we
can't stop to argue that now. Every
one must put. everything he has in
even to his blood, and that literally
and then the battle will be won.

A WORLD ISSUE
Editor. Askov American:

Editor Askov American:
We are strong for words, phrases,
slogans; to realities, things, facts, we
are indifferent, even hostile. This
is the time of year we celebrate the
birth anniversary of Lincoln. With
sonorous fervency or solemn JUNCTION
we megaphone or intone, "The world
will little note nor long remember
what we say here"
Then we pause, basking in the sat-
isfaction that we have proved Lin
coin mistaken. We are remember
ing what he said. We are repeating
his very words-the things he thought
were unimportant. But we are not
thinking, have never thought of what
"these dead died" for, the thing Lin
coin meant we should remember.
The hands that applaud Lincoln S
passing words turn to riveting new
chains upon the same people he set
free, more chains upon more people,
people in all lands, on all islands of
the seas, in the slums, in the ghettos
and Gethsemanes of the world.
True, there are some (and the few
are becoming many, who let the
passing words of Lincoln pass and
strivesto bring to realization the thing
"these sacred dead. died for. They
want a new freedom under God for
ALL They want that those may not
have died in vain, that those now
dying are not dying in vain
The thing they died sfor is today
the world issue. Not, perhaps, the
ostensible issue, not the issue head
lined and radioed, not the issue in
the minds of the men behind the men
with the bombs. The issue is the
freedom of all men to set up govern
ments of their own, the secured right
of all men to toll when they please
to and to eat the fruits of that toll.
Three score years and ten have
passed since Lincoln said those preg-
nant words. Many are still fighting,
still dying, still praying for that "new
birth of freedom" for all peoples
in all lands. At the same time some
are moving hell and earth to nullify
his real meaning and make. shrine
of his passing. words. but right will
triumph over might, justice will de-
throne injustice and the slave shall
yet 60 free;
Let the spirit of Lincoln, let the
spirit of those who died at Gettys-
burg, and all the farflung battlefelds
of all lands, and who. are yet so to
die, sieze upon US, guide us, lead
us in the fight and to- the. end that
none of these dead and dying shall
have died, or die in vain.

lions of dollars in interest since the
date Of their issuance.
When these 100000 noninter-
est-bearing government notes were
released in December no one thought
it would bring down the wrath OF
God nor the cornerstones of democ-
racy, and to this day few, if any,
newspapers have even commented
on the fact. But as the facts grad
ual1y leak out and folks realize that
these "greenbacks" are not bringing
on initiation and that no bank or group
of financiers is profiting from their
circulation there may be demands
for the expansion of this method OF
financing the war.
Attic end of November, 1912, there
were $ll, 1861, coo, 900 federal reserve
notes in circulation. This represented
an increase of $4,000, 100000 during
1912. To substitute $4,000, 080, 000
United States Undergraduates
would not be any more inflationary
than the release Of four, billion dol
lars worth of interest-bearing fed
era1 reserve bank notes.
AS of November 80, 1912, the COM
mercial banks of the nation held
$35 400, O00, 900 Understanding Sc
curities of the government. This
represented more than one-third OF
the then national debt. To substitute
$35, 400, 000, 900 of U. S. notes which
bear no interest for the bank-cre-
ated money now in circulation would
save the nations taxpayers something
like $685. ,000, 900 interest charges per
year, and what is more-it wouldn't
be any more inflationary than what
had taken place when the bank de-
posts were created. That's some
thing! - .

PEOPLE MUST WAKE UP TOO
(Worldover Press)

The big falsehood of this war is
the notion that feeding the children
of occupied countries could affect
the wars outcome an iota. Many of
those who oppose feeding because it
might help the Nazis conserve food
contribute generously to the Red
Cross, which manages to send thou
sands of food packages to war pris-
oners, reducing the rations the Ger
mans have to give them. Surely,
children in Holland and elsewhere
are no less victims of war than Allied
soldiers. They will be even more
needed to get postwar Europe going

state the situation goes on. Recently

A DANGEROUS PROPOSAL
New Ulm JournaD

\NeW, %Ouu JOulItdI)
Some day we hope that Fred w.
Johnson or some other state histor-
ian will take a little time out to do
little research on Minnesota and
her mental, emotional, economic and
political reactions to wars. = It is Ger
tain to make a most interesting study.
Minnesota's people are not very diff
ferent from the peoples of other
states. Certainly they are just as
patriotic and loyal and just as war
minded as the citizenry of Wiscon-
sin, Iowa, North and South Dakota,
not to mention the other states of the
middlewest. They buy just as many
bonds proportionately, give just as
many sons to the army and navy,
cooperate just as well in the ration
ing programs, scrap and fats CAM
paigns and the many other little
chores wars entail. 49, .-a.
Yet, when Minnesota goes to war
we always seem to have to Guido
the other states in the powers we
give our governors, commissions and
boards. In World War No. l, Min
nesota was the only state in the
middle west which had a safety
commission to assure the patriotic
support of our state. This commits
sion caused so much hell and trouble
that it took twenty years to over
come all the antagonisms this patri-
otto body worked up during its ex-
istence. Wisconsin, Iowa, North and
South Dakota fortunately escaped
most of this foolishness.
Now comes Governor Stassen with
his War Powers Bill which out-Roose-
velts anything Franklin D. Roosevelt
ever asked from Democratic-con-
trolled congress. We have read the
bill through twice and our experience
is exactly the same as some of the
Senator's we have met who have taken
the time out to read it. & It takes our
breath away!

of power which give you some idea

NO ONE KNEW THE DIFFERENCE
(Union -Advocate)

Something happened in Washing
ton, D. c., on December 81, 1912,
which to all purposes could have
caused a lot of wailing and lot of
dire predictions. But nothing hap
,pened nor. is it likely that anything
is going to happen as "a result of that
unannounced, yet epoch-m k n G
event. j,
On that day and date President
Roosevelt authorized the release Of
some 5000, 000, 900 of unused federal
reserve bank notes which had been
in cold storage since 1888 when events
were shaping to make the need of
liquid currency critical. But the
huge fortune, printed by the Bureau
of Printing and Engraving to meet
crisis in the nations history, was
never utilized and would have still
remained in storage were it not for
the fact that the Bureau is already
overloaded with the work of print
ing war bonds that are being pur-
chased in unprecedented amounts,
and cannot print enough federal re-
serve notes to meet the demands.
While the title on these notes in
dicates they are national currency
issued by federal reserve bank,
they are not being issued in man
ner that makes them the liability of
federal reserve bank but instead
are credited directly to the account
Of the government. In other words,
they are direct obligations of Uncle
Sam in that they are noninterest-
bearing and to all purposes and in
tents are identical with the $346, O00,-
900 of greenbacks issued by Presi-
dent Lincoln in the Civil war;. These
greenbacks are still in circulation
and have saved the taxpayers bill
