It is by no means the first time this matter has been called to the attention of the county commissioners. There must positively be some means of re- lieving the city streets of automobile traffic. If this highv placed in reasonable repair this spring, there will be a noticeable improyement in downtown tra just as soon as the weather settles. Automobiles will use this driveway as much to get away from the city as they*now use the Salt Creek highway. Besides it will be what its name implies—a scenic driveway. It would seem that the city and county, have no more important problem before them, than to get the people into town and out of town, in some sort of comfort. American soil, soil that was owned by Ameri- can people who received in all probability as royalty the enormous sum of one-sixth of a controlled price of 63 cents a barrel. Do you know that England is taking oil out of Califor- nia to India and Mexico, to every corner of the world where this oil is being placed to storage, for what? Some say an advance in price, some say war purposes, I don’t care which. But I know, if the people of this country knew but one-tenth of one per cent of what was allowed to go on there would be a howl raised that would stop foreign exploitation of our one vital re- source.

One thing local purchasers of automobiles do not undesstand is, why in as large a center as Casper, agents for the different makes of ma- chines cannot receive direct shipments from manufacturers, but must strain their orders through Denver, or some other large center. The annual sales of several machines made by| Casper agents are said to be much greater than| those made by Denver agents of the same ma ers; yet Casper orders and orders from els where must go to swell the output of Denver agencies, and give them the prestige that really belengs elsewhere. | The freight rate on cars from the eastern} manufacturing centers to both Denver and Cas- per should be equal. Then there is the local rate Denver to Casper to be absorbed by someone, and it is not done by the manufacturer or the agent, so it must be by the purchaser. Why shonld Casper purchasers be penalized in this > manne Automobile manufacturers may have some foolish notion about distributing their product through certain centers, but whatever it is, it is not isfactory to the purchasers of cars in as large and important a center as Casper. Will He Quit? When a cabinet member becomes a storm cen-} ter of the opposition party, it is bad enough, but when be becomes the same thing in his own| party it is much worse. Clearly Harry Daugh- erty has reached this exact situation. It is read- ily understandable why the Democrats take de- light in pounding so active a man as Daugherty has been in politics most of his life. But his own party associates are almost as outspoken as the} Democrats on the matter of his retirement from the cabinet. General unfitness for the high po- A Quiet. Waming Quoting from the Kansas City Star, the Bil- lings Gazette says: Z “The Kansas City Star has discovered the very signifcant fact that the six northwestern states in which the sum total of the state and local taxes are greater per capita than are the federal taxes are states that are represented in | congress by the most radical among the states- men at Washington. Says the Star: “ ‘There are sixteen states in which the state and lo taxes exceed per capita the federal taxes, This is a particularly had showing when | the big war debt ia taken into account. In some instances the high local taxes have a definite re- lation to the condition of the farmers and bank- ers, for example in the northwest. From that region recently went up an appeal for federal aid, which has been forthcoming in a new mea- sure of relief for farmers and bankers. “ Now it happens. that of the sixteen states having excessive state and local taxes, denoting mischievous management of. resources, six lie in this nor\hwest region. They are the Dakotas, Iowa, Nebraska, Minnesota and Wisconsin. “ ‘Attention has been called to the fact that these states are represented in the senate by such radicals as Ladd,Frazier, Brookhart, Nor- ris, Shipstead, Jo! on and La Follette, who lead a small minority using its balance af pow- er to coerce the senate and embarrass the ad- ministration. They are trying to prevent sound tax reduction. They are standing between this legislation and the interests of the whole coun- try, including that of their own states. They are unwilling to do anything to lower living costs which are oppressing the whole country. They would continue to impose enormous and wholly unnecessary burdens on business, which passes these burdens on to the consumer. “<The amazing thing is that these great states especially such ordinarily progressive states as Iowa and Nebraska, should complacently let Abdicates.’ Jorrible!
