Lack of vigorous action, econ
omy-wise, on the part Of con-
gress and the administration is
costing families in Geauga
county an estimated $4,000 a
year in needless taxes.
The figure is based on the
local level of income, on pre-
vious tax payments and on a
report prepared by the U. S.
Chamber of Commerce to show
the financial savings that would
result from application of the
Hoover commission proposals.
A growing feeling is appar-
ent in the average citizen that
he is being deprived of some
thing. He has heard and read
of the work of the Hoover COM
mission, which labored objec-
lively for two years to deter
mine what improvements, if any,

May Save
onTaxes

Under the provisions of Pub
lie Law No. 466, approved A
pril 2, 1856, farmers are re-
lieved of the burden of Federal
taxes on their farms for farm
ing purposes, according to Le-
land D. Schuler, County Agri-
cultural Agent.
The relief in the case of the
gasoline tax is accomplished by
providing annual refunds pay
able by the federal government
directly to the farmers. The
first claims to be filed will be
with respect to gasoline pur-
chased after December 81, 1855,
and used on a farm for farming
purposes before July l, 1856.
These claims must be filed on
or before September 80, 1856.
Subsequent claims will cover the
fiscal year period July to June
80.
A supply of refund claim
forms and instructions will be
available at the Post Office and
Banks in Burton, Chardon, and
Middlefield. These forms will
also be available at the eXten-
sion office in the old school

effect, according to the experts,
they would have saved the tax
payers over five billion dollars

them have been acted upon, how
ever.
Who would have benefited
chiefly from these efficiency
measures, the people with large
incomes or those with modest
earnings? The answer is the
latter group. More than rs per-
cent of personal income tax rev.

under $500 a year.
In Geauga county, it is ex-
timated, the tax saving would
have come to $115 per family.
All told, it would have amounted
to $4,000.

embittered farmer, founded the
league.
It caught on quickly in North
Dakota during World War I. MIR.
Townley claimed farmers were
being made victims of private
banking interests, grain elevators
and terminals, railroads and big
business.
Won Control in 1916
The league won control of the
Legislature in 1916 and started
putting the State into business
with such ventures as the Bank
Iof North Dakota the State Mill
and Elevator Department and a
hail insurance department.
During its existence the league
has contended with several con-
sentative G. o. P. factions. The
current one is the Republican
Organizing Committee, which
controls the governorship.
Most North Dakota Republic
cans downgrade talk that the
shift is a product of a widespread
farm revolt" in this farming
State.
Few contest that there has
been some dissatisfaction with
administration farm policies
Senator LANCER, Mr.. Burdick and
Senator Young, Republican OF
North Dakota, the latter a league
opponent, have assailed Secre-
tary of Agriculture Benson's pol
icieS at almost every turn.

State which has voted Demo-
cratic in presidential race only
four times since 1900.
Since it was organized the
league has been a faction of the
State Republican Party. 1t has
put up its own candidates in Re-
publican primaries in a battle
with more conservative elements
in the party. But up until now it
has always been welded to the
G. o. P. in the general elections,
The shift. expected to mate
rialize at the NPL's biennial in
dorsing convention today and
tomorrow, has been in the works
for almost 10 years. 1t has been
spanked by group of "insur-
gents" who say the league has
long been out of place in the
Republican column.
Position of LANCER
- The switch leaves unclear the
position of Senator LANCER, Re-
publican of Indiana, a driving
force behind the league for more
than two decades.
He declined comment yester-
day on his plans should the
league abandon the Republican
banner. However, Representa-
tive Usher Burdick, also a vet
eran Lacquer, said he would file
for reelection with the G. o. P
Senator LANCER will not be up
for reelection until 1858.
The effects of the leagues
turnabout nationally are herd to
measure. Unquestionably the
up-to-now weak State Demo-
cratic Party will be toughened
Yet there is no way of telling
how many leaguers will follow
the organization into the Demo
cratic rolls.
1t should, however, eliminate
0 lot of confusion which has
made the States political align
ments so bewildering to outsid-
ers.
Has Democratic Look
While it has organized with
the Republicans, the leagues
aims and programs usually have
a Democratic look. In some
cases they have gone beyond the
Democratic Party's liberal move
ment.
The leagues delegates are ex-
pected to vote overwhelmingly
here to file their candidates in
the Democratic column for
North Dakota's June primary.
The convention is the upshot
of intramural strife that has
been broiling in State G. o. P.
