Register compiaints before 8 ohiaee Gasoline Tax It is pretty far-fetched by those who advocate an increase in the gasoline tax, to say that it is not an increase in tax, but simply the placing of a specific tax for highway maintenance upon those who receive the benefit therefrom. The gen- eral public will not readily understand this sep- aration of sheep and goats. It is proposed to add the tax to the regular price of gasoline and collect it at the place of sale. All purchasers of gasoline must pay the price and the tax regard- less of whether or not he operates his machine over the highways. Delivery cars in towns and cities and tractors on farms, and station- ary gasoline engines used for power purposes, none of which use the highways—how are they to avoid paying the three cents extra per gallon for gasoline if they are not subject to the tax? Just who will keep his eye skinned and make note of the potential taxpayer? There is only one argument these gasoline ad- vocates have, and they don’t use it at all. It is that they desire more money, from the burden bearers of the state, or the burden bearers from other places, who might come among us, for the highway commission to spend, That is all they want. Simply more money. Whether it is needed y when people are groaning under a back-breaking weight of taxes, and the entire Qation is howling for reduction of cost and econ- omy in public matters, this gasoline tax venture ts sprung. It is just several years too late. The people, and that means the taxpayers, have discovered that they have too willingly In the past supported such proposals, They all cost money and money is a more difficult and elusive article than for- merly, There are numerous good reasons for opposi- ticn to a gasoline tax, and only one reason for it. The reason is given above. Done Broke Down It may be noted in passing, that Ajram John- son’s California political machine came in con- He imputes ouly evil motives to those whoop- pose this venturz, and declares that opposition is inspired by the “Power Trust.” Mr. Hearst's position, as his declarations indi- cate, is inspired by devotion to the public good; a desire that the people of the south may have the benefit of cheaper power and cheaper fertil- izers, The co-operation of this great publisher in still another venture in government pr political oper- ation of business is therefore invited. We have with us not only the Power Trust, but the news- paper and maguzine trust. It is a very powerful trust, which is accused not only of getting too much money, but of controlling public opinion tact with Governor Richardson’s steam roller, much to the damage of the former, at a recent reorganization of the state legislature. ‘.0 those observers who view California af- fairs from a distance it would seem tbat Hiram’s manure spreader cannot stand very many more jolts without completely wrecking it. The fact is, some men are incapable of judging just what strain machinery of this type may en- dure. While it was employed up and down the length of the home ranch, it performed fairly well, under Hiram’s personal guidance. When it was new itelected a governor and defeated a president and then elected a senator; but when it was brought east and came in contact with president-making machines of more sturdy and ulilitarian pattern it proved worthless, Now, it seems, that California jnventors have been busy, meanwhile, and have remodelel an old steam roller und given jt not only durability but speed as well, which has practically put Hiram’s well- known spreader completely out of commission. It is even hinted that Hiram contemplates re- tirement before this steam roller overtakes him in the summer of 1927. How to Reduce Taxes g tax experts and fiscal officers of the seyv- eral states are dated up for u conference at the nation’s capital within a few weeks, They will go to sit at the feet of the nation’s greatest tax re- ducer and learn how it may be accomplished. Out in the states the pople have heard that tax reduction is possible and they have begun to clamor for tax reduction in states and counties nd cities and school districts after the federal formula as directed by Mr. Coolidge. An average reduction of twenty-seven per cent u federal taxation has been accomplished dur- ng the Coolidge regime, but that has been more than overcome by the increases in state and loca} taxation. There has been no real easing of the burden. In the last five years state and municipal charges have more than doubled in every section of the country. The president has been practical ly the only efficient exemplar of economy. It is felt that if a general conference of major offi- ials were held at the capital something of real importance to the burden-bearers might be evolved, President Coolidge might roll back his uffs and show how he does it. Immediate re trenchment is imperative in the local expendi tures in nearly all the communities of our fair but expensive land. ° His Own Trust One of the outstanding figures in the publica- tion world is William ndolph Hearst. He is among other things an adyocate of government ownership. Or at least appears to be. Nobody knows to a certainty about his sincerity, With apparent consistency he supports government or political operation of Muscle Shoals as a pow: er plant and fertilizer factory, and polluting public morals by excessive exploi- tation of stories of vice. 4 For less money than it will haye invested in a politically operated power plant and fertilizer faciory at Muscle Shoals the government could start daily newspapers in Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington, Buffalo, Atlanta, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco and other cities in which Mr. Hearst's News: paper Trust is printing dgilies. The Power Trust has not greatly increased rates during the past few years. Mr. Hearst's newspaper trust has increased by 200 per cent the selling price of a number of his daily publi- cations and has doubled, trebled and quadrupled advertising rates. In order not to overlook any of the axactions of the trust, a few magazines might also he started. § It is true these publications might not pay, but in a, gevornmentally or politically operated en- terprise there is always the opportunity to meet deficits out of the public treasury. By selling cir- culation and advertising at pre-war rates the goy- ernment might at least make hard sledding for the trust. This is an enterprise of such promise to the down-trodden people that undoubtedly Mr. Hearst will fall in with it at once. He could not afford in such a matter to line up with the Minions of Plutocracy. It would undoubtedly work so well that the people would be encour- aged to go on with the rest of Mr. Heart’s polit- ical ownership program, which includes most of the enterprises Mr. Hearst does not happen to own, Cleverness A novelist and writer, who has made the grade, expends time and effort to explain in the Satur- day Evening Post the sad degeneracy of con: temporary American literary talent. He makes quite a complicated case of why the stuff is in ferior and some of it vile. The explanation is more simple than he sup poses and the condition agises not from spiritual deficiency but from mechanical superiority. The great masters of old wrote with quill pens and every grocer’s clerk and barber’s apprentice was not engaged in rivaling them. They were deyo- tees of art and not participants, aye proletarians in an industry that vies with the steel business or the keeping of hotels, The printing presses today exert a vast demand and are fed by a vast supply. Nearly everybody contributes and thousands do well, A high level of output obtains, while yumerous salesmen offer novelties that flash of gmell. It’s all a business and the quality of the goods grows better and better. No one writes very badly, a host writes exceedingly well. But all the effort, the improvement, the attain- ment reaches no higher than a certain line. Med- iocrity, no matter haw well trained, how clever how aspiring, cannot excel. Mediccrity can pro- duce a fine quality of goods, but it doesn’t do art, not art spelt with a capital, It may sur prise. by its resources, astonish by its tricks, achieve fine imitation ware. But it stops short. Of course, in any literary age very clever tal- ents have done for genius and in instances the world is still deceived. But our Asmerica today holds more clever writers than ever were littered in any previous thousand years, and yet not one who soars to the altitude of genius. And genius in this environment, this forest of vigorous mediocrity would be smothered if it tried to grow. The public is so much attuned to cleverness that its ear does not detect the ring of genius and the publishers see to it that the read- ers shall remain content. Mediocrity triumphant has destroyed values, No Short Cuts Viscount Cecil before embarking for his re- turn trip to England did a useful service by try- ing to clear our minds of can’t about ways to se- cure the peace of the world, He spoke out of long peracne) experience. Nor has it always been a appy experience. He himself at one time essayed to do the thing which he now condemns, That is to say, he undertook a short cut, a partial meas- ure, not going the full length of agreement among all the civilized nations, Lord Cecil’s plan for regional treaties of disarmament and of mutual support in case of aggressive attack failed to win the appfoval even of his own government. It has been dropped. And he is now convinced, as are most of the earnest minds which have long been wrestling with the problem, that there can be no complete guarantee against war except by sure.

COTTE MACACA REFTATRE] oMAD< 1 [alc BRAIN ole |S] Isto} PolATO] ETAT 10] Railroad Economy The Coolidge plan of economy has taken possession of the railroads of the country, net so much in the re- duction of wages or salaries as in the matter cf management. From July 1, 1923, to April 1, 1924, the average net earnings of the rallroads wak 4.95 per cent on the international agreements that are complete. Particularly opposite were Viscount Cecil’s re- marks on the happy thoughts, as they may be called, which have been put forward as a remedy for all the woes of the world. He referred to the lan to enact laws declaring war a crime, Many have been captivated by this idea of “outlawing wer.” They seem to suppose that if we could get it solemnly written in a statute, or embodied in international law, that whoever makes war is a criminal, then nobody would ever venture to make war. This: kindly dream was pricked by Lord Cicil, A victorious war would always be justified by the conquerors who waged it, and if others objected their throats would be cut. The notion of providing special and shameful punish- ments for those who lead a nation into a los: ing war is quite superfluous. Under the existing system such punishments are made almost un- bearably cruel. Ask the man at Doorn! No, if we really desire to secure mankind against the shock of war, we must go the whole figure and get all mankind to agree to abolish aggressive war, with united and effective sanctions.
