It is interes note throughout the state a growing tendency on the part of city and county officials to “bear down” on delinquent taxpayers. It is being real- | ized that any leniency to delinquents is at} the expense of the man who actually pays. On April 1 the year moratorium on | sale of state and county tax certificates ex- pires as well as the year of special discount grace to delinquents. The rush of hungry “tax sharks” is going to cause many an angry and aggrieved gasp to dilatory tax payers owning good properties.

Japan had specifically and volun- tarily acknowledged Chinese ownership | ot their own land and agreed to maintain | their sovereignty. Both countries were al- so more solemnly bound by the League of } Jations covenant and the Kellogg-Briand { Yet, both of these nations are pro- ceeding ruthlessly and selfishly in viola- tion of their plighted word. Germany has done likewise. withstanding free acceptance, in the Lo- carno Treaty, it has repudiated a de- militarized Rhineland, sending its soldiers | once more to man the watch on the Rhine. This act seriously endangered European peace because it almost invited the French | to make war immediately rather than wait a few more years for what Frenchmen; think is an inevitable struggle.

Quite a sentiment exists in the United | States in favor of the deportation of aliens, and the remark is often heard that they employment, The Citizen calls attention to the re- cent statement of Colonel Daniel W. Mac- Cormack, U. S. Commissioner of Immigra- tion and Naturalization, who says that there were only 4,564,933 aliens in this country last July. Moreover, 43.7 per cent were above 50 years of age and only slightly more than a million men were be- tween the ages of 21 and 50. The alien population decreased 1,669,680 between April 1, 1930 and July 1, 1935. The Commissioner called attention to the Coolidge-Kerr bill now before Con- gress, providing the discretionary power: not to deport aliens of good moral charac- He says it is a mistake ‘ead of individuals, and referred to five f<-nilies whic consisted of five deportable While there is considerable justice behind the demand that alien habitual criminals be deported without exception, it seems to us that to deport other aliens indis -im‘.ately would work injustices in! mwv'v cases. ENCOURAGING One of the most encouraging signs of | industrial progress is the heavy increase in expenditures made by railroads for equipment. This reflects improved traffic conditions, which are indicated by the | fact that car-loadings for the last week in February were 69,000 ahead of the same} week last year. In the first two months of 1936, rail- roads bought twice as many engines as they did in 1935. They ordered 8,286; freight cars in the two months, which is; almost 10 times as many as those ordered | in the same period of 19: Already half | become entirely | too common for governments to repudiate | {West Fire lunder control.

Dr. Ales Hrdlicka, anthropologist, after measuring thousands of faces, an- nounces that as one gets older, the mouth widens, the nose goes down and outward, and the ears lengthen. The process starts in childhood, is conditioned by hereditary and climatic factors, but is sufficiently pronounced to alter a well-remembered appearance. > ot 100 Per Cent Refrigeration — Satisfaction Priced at $20.00 vw EASY TERMS—10 DAYS FREE TRIAL 11 9S THOMPSON'S ICE CO.
