BUSINESS IS SICK * Busin### in this country i t aide. Butta##* in Ohio is side. I t is #kk i» G tmsm county, la tko township# and towns u well. What ails buainuw? That'* the qwwtic*. The "fauaiao#* man knows hut the public has never taken time to five the matter a thought. Ju st a t the present time the public is getting in­ ter#*ted. Business once vigorous and strong is now wavering under a te r­ rible load—taxation. The public by cinding Mr* and Mrs. Taxpayer has discovered something wrong—taxa- b a . * M . a M r t « « After* iuh -fiirivmi f T n r r n# i , find A WW kindly feeling since both IAB, former Secretary of Interior, is + h « . * . i . av _ guilty o f a serious crime against his gevenuneRt If he is guilty there should he punishment meeted outk But net to Fall alone. There is Doheny and Sinclair and other* that were on the giving end and not the receiving end of this Id-partisan .bribery scandal. The Republican party cannot be held fo r this disgrace. There are as many Democrats in on i t as Republi­ cans. As fo r Fall he was first a Dem­ ocrat and later a Republican The public ia watching develop­ ment* with a keen interest. We be­ lieve president Coolidge honest in his stand to go to the bottom of the af- fa ir regardless of who i t hits. The political party tha t will suffer will be the one that attempts to retard jus­ tice to the guilty ones. ' l BEING,AWAY FROM HOME ., How many people stop to think how much more they ace away from home now than they were ten years ago o r say, back in their teens, Americans are great travelers. They go to the European continent fo r pleasure and enjoyment. They go . South uk the winter and north in the summer. I t is no Wonder , that home js not What i t Used' to be, In the cities it is the theatre and picture show with dinner- “down town".- In the rural sec­ tions make shift card games-have ’ & hold on the |>eople. This form of entertainment and amusement ds ail righ t if it is not done to the detriment o f .the home. Excess in amusement is a s dangerous to the home a s excess in habits th a t are detrimental to personal-health. M ost * young folk# are away from* .the eoantry ever knew be- in fbiks' ydimg :saerifte# th a t father ‘ and.; mother may be miking tcvkeep them1 in school or college. i f gentle reader you happen to be Ana that is away from home, are you ..making the best of your opportunity? Are you keeping in touch with home other than seeking th e ' usual remit­ tance? Are you in correspondence once or twice a week with your parents? If no t you should he for there is nothing h i the world that you can do that will . take as little trouble and cause as much happiness as writing to. your parents, especially yottr Mother. are suffering with the same malady. When business was on the boom nobody cared how much taxes were. "When Mr, Taxpayer was a t the top and handling more money tha ever be­ fore taxation did not concern him* Row that* business has slacked up the manufacturer finds taxes the same or in the ascendency. Mr. Taxpayer finds this to be true and both are joining hands fo r relief. The other day we noticed th a t Ohio collected $13,887,286.96 an increase o f $1,649,750.77 more than in 1622 from Ohio domestic and foreign cor­ porations. -Now Ahis is bu t One form of taxes th a t corporations, utilities and manufacturing cincerns,,have to pay in Ohio. This is enough to make business sick. jiBusiness in Ohio for some years back was not regarded by our leg­ islature as an Asset to the state. I t was considered more of a liability and soaked for more taxes . when ever additional funds were needed.' The tru th of the matter i$ that Ohio like many other states has been burdened by reformations an® busi­ ness has had no consideration. At least 9'S per cent o f the reform move­ ments recognized provided for a host of inspectors a t f a t salaries and ex­ pense money- traveling - over tile sta te ,at the expense of the taxpayer. Business has passed much of this tax! down the line to Mr. Consumer. Business is going to pass more of it In the future, regardless of what Mr. Consumer as a taxpayer thinks of it. Each year more has been Added to the price,of goods and here is where Mr. Farmer meets" a ?wide margin in w h a t h e has to ap ll’ and the retail purchase price. But Mr. Farmer ,faces a different situation. He has his tax too meet and pay hut it.-canttot be handed down to ®be afcaHhhu backet* with the farmer. What can the farmer do to help himself? He can sta rt and work backward tddtelp lift the load by join­ ing with the manufacturer and busi­ ness man fo r relief. Once the load of state and federal taxes is lightened competition will force lower priced wares. The public will endorse and do en-> dorse certain, requirements about bus­ iness in Ohio bu t the time has coins when .every whim of some, fanatic la not he gratified by legislative en­ actment, In most instances all these projects a re but propositions in the ,nsme of some progressive or xefor- A m e tica Is D o om ed a n d That’s T h a t When great tragedies impend, ethics—even newspaper ethics—must he swept aside. The editorial columns of this publication Always have been confined to the expression of opinion, leaving to our news columns the recital of events that have occurred and the announcement of events to come. A continuation of this accepted policy is now rendered im­ possible, for we must record without delay the impending disintegration of the land we love before we are too late. The United States is doomed, and when the grand crash comae, perhaps some time next week, there won't be any­ body to write the story. There won't be any newspapers to reward the fact, and if there were, of course, there will not be any people to read about it. For once, therefore, we must beat our news editor to his own game, Tke nation ha* gone. Disaster ia a t the door. The gaunt skeleton of ruin is abroad in the land. This is not an opin­ ion, not an expression of our fearfulness; it is the definite ittinouncenient of the distinguished Hebraic authority who settle* tU questions—Mr. Israel Zangwill. .What more can be said? WhenMr. Zangwill opes his lips, let no dog bark. Worst of ah, Mr. Zangwill has left us to our fate, gone -home, thanking God he has departed without having had to sea our prominent men. Oh, woe is us, for we are in the depths! Mr. Zangwill tells tie we have no kick, not even in our bootleg cocktail, that our immigration ana reparations adfsiee are all wrong, that our hotel* have too many towels in the bedrooms, that we are being attacked, undermined and sapped by a score of ignorant prejudices which will surely min o« if suitable steps are not taken.
