That is a very apt illustration of the plight of the individual at present. The arrows of taxation have never flown so swiftly or so thickly. They come from every point of the compass and they come in bunches. Their number is constantly gaining. Their points are ever sharper. It would be interesting to make a list of all the taxes Americans living in one place or another are required to pay. It would take up a lot of paper. The old tested taxes, such as those on property, have been overshadowed by a multitude of new and experimental taxes. We pay them on income, upon the gasoline or elec- tricity we use, upon the securities we own, upon the hat we buy or the beer we drink, upon the movie shows we go to and the clubs we join. Special tax after special tax is suggested and passed—and every article or service upon which it is inflicted is already paying other taxes either direct- ly or indirectly. Cities, counties, states and the federal government have been engaged in a spend- ing spree since war-time. They’ve grown drunk with it. In their eyes luxuries be- come necessities, and economy and effi- ciency are forgotten terms. They want more public money—and when the source from one supply runs low, they simply tap anew one. And the arrows of taxation are shooting holes in pants and pocket- books. FREEDOM OF THE PRESS ' It may sound strange to some, but re- ecent warnings respecting the freedom of the press are not without basis of fact. In his annual report, Carl W. Ackerman, head of Columbia University’s school of journal- ism, declares that the only possibility of the United V.ates escaping a dictatorship rests with the maintenance of a free and courageous press. In a formal] statement a few days ago, Senator Schall of Minesota warned that “we shall see the destruction of all news- papers that attempt to criticize the gods controiling our national administration.” These may be extreme views, but it can not be doubted that the press of the country has been unnecessarily timid of late in commenting on governmental poli- cies concerning which constructive criti- cism might be helpful. It was entirely commendable that the press generally, regardless of party poli- tics, should give support to the sincere ef- fort of the present administration to de- vise means and effect legislation for the betterment of conditions. But that every move made should be accepted as sound and beneficial is something else. The question now arises whether the American people are willing to surrender all the liberties their. forefathers | fought and died for, simply for the sake of new theories which are not working out in prac- tice, Certainly the press should try to be | fair, but it should not weakly surrender its constitutional right to free expression... IS THE SUN COOLING? If the sun is getting cooler, as some scientists assert, not much evidence of that fact is supplied by 1933 summer tempera- tures. Still, most astronomers belive the sun in gradually, but very slowly losing heat. Among those who hold this view is Dr. E. L. Trevine, president of the Mexi- can Astronomical Society, who points out that thousands of now extinct suns are knewn to have existed in the dim past. In lectures at the University of Edinburgh, down, although he admits the possibility that the heai thrown off by our sun and other stars may in some manner be gath- ered again to form new suns. Anyway, Old Sol appears to be good for a few billion years more, so his uliimate end has practical significance for earth's present inhabitants, But it is fascinating to contemplate what may be the final fate of mankind when, if ever, our solar system undergoes the markec changes which these astron- omers predict.
