The city charier (that is, the old one) is very definite in its term- | inology about payment of. personal prop- erty taxes. If they’re not paid—it speci- fically states that distress warrants are to be issued by the tax collector and the po- lice department is to see that they are | served. Over $2,000 in personal property taxes are delinquent at present. A nice little sum that would go far towards pro- viding another payday for the city’s em- ployes, who are ertirely deserving of con- sideration. But no. The law, it appears again, is not to be observed. The charter states it, but excuses are found not to enforce the provisions.

How about the one-third in this country, ill-clad, poorly housed and under-, nourished? They come first or should, | | taxés. Down through the years, in fairness to the present courcil, there has been ter- rific laxity in this matter of tax collection enforcement. Many persons, it is known, are truly unable to pay their bills owed the city. Yet, on the other hand, humans are so constituted that they just won’t pay, taxes if they are not forced to. In that the city has not seen fit to force them, many , have taken advantage of that laxity, and there we are. No matter the reasons why it was thought expedient not to enforce the dis- tress warrant provision. There was some | merit in them. The point is—the law was not enforced. The Citizen asks—“How much longer are city officials going to countenance laxity in law enforcement?” It believes that the mere example set of enforcement | of one law in regard to tax matters, will | prove of immense benefit to the city. | taxpayers will soon get the idea that a New The Deal has set in, and we’ll find increasingly less tax-dodging as time advances from when the initial effort is made. JAPAN SEES OPPORTUNITY Japan, it appears, has adopted a policy of acting first and explaining after- ward. This is the cardinal point in the Nazi program. The explaining that follows the act is oniy for the purpose of quieting op- position. It is worthless as an evidence of good faith. The chances are that Tokyo will at- tempt some ferm of retaliation when it realizes that high grade gasoline is not to be shipped from this country. Just what Japan’s answer will be to our latest move is a matter unknown outside the military circles of Japan. The stage is now set in the Far East for uncontested advances by Japan to the ; south, where many of her expansionists | have longed to acquire territory. How far Japan will go depends entirely upon how ' far Japan thinks she can go without run- ning into overwhelming opposition. With Great Britain occupied United States alone possesses the power to restrain her ambitions, but Tokyo does not , think we will do anything at all.
