Now that Johnson is 225-250 records this year from highway accidents continue to mount, traveling the country making speeches 250-300 Several states have such law$ and have enforced them but still against the New Peal a reference to nnn JKn the death and accident list grows larger each year. There is what he says should he worth some- but one answer to all this—an over ahundance of speed built thing. Early this week Johnson in the cars by the manufacturers and wreckless driving. stated that Now Deal spending as it We have no objection to a law such as has been passed by ,had been would not bankrupt hut the legislature other than the fee plan. It seems tha t every time disrupt the nation within eight the legislature turns around there is a special fee or a new tax montiis. We presume Johnson means hung around the necks of the people. Worst of all none of', a t that time the Roosevelt depression Top medium __ ........ 9.00 to 11.0C these small fees go to the municipalities, townships or counties but to the state to pay the salaries of a new set of appointed officials. Such licenses could be issued by local officials and the fees turned into local funds but it seems members of the legislature, when they get inside the corporation limits of Co­ lumbus, feel that the state is in Franklin county and the other 87 counties in Ohio belong to neighboring states. Every other taxing district needs even the small fee revenue and not even the.state needs more salaried officials. I,t makes no difference what law you pass if the public flaunts it. You recall tha t highway patrolmen were pictured as the answer to. all thefts, bank.robberies,- chicken stealing, bootlegging. So far as we recall not a single bank robber, even those who commit the act at high noon, have yet been appre­ hended by the highway patrolman. ■ . ■ When the citizens of the state as well as members of the legislature learn tha t mere passage of a law will not cure an evil, we may get some place. It is almost a proven fact that the more laws we have the more are broken and greater be­ comes the tendency for disrespect for all law. Real enforcement on the highway can only be self-enforce- ment. Death and destruction on streets and highways will practically cease when every driver, pedestrian as well, be­ comes his own agent of enforcement. ■ ■ WHY AMERICAN BUSINESS IS AFRAID During the past year, substantial and sustained improve­ ment has taken place in almost all lines of business. That fact, encouraging and welcome as it is, should not blind us to the equally important fact that governmental policies are prevent­ ing industries from making even greater progress toward recoveiy. I Today'business is afraid—and its fears are justified and logical. It is afraid of our almost incredible volume of govern­ mental spending, which is reflected in a staggering public debt and inevitably higher taxes. It is afraid of governmental competition in fields of private endeavor. It is afraid of governmental interference in private affairs th a t tends to take business management out of the hands of the owners of property and put it in the hands of bureaucrats actuated by partisan and political motives. It is afraid of alien policies which are variously described as socialistic, communistic and fascistic—and which,' whatever their propei'labeling, are directly opposed to the ancient American principle of private enterprise and individual initiative. . ■* When men are plagued by such fears as these, they are hesitant to put money into productive enterprises, knowing that tax or legislative acts may deprive them of any reward. They lose .the surge of ambition, the agressiveness, the desire for achievement that makes great industries, no less than great empires. They are unwilling to take the necessary and una­ voidable risks tha t attach to all commercial enterprises when their ordinary chance of success is* lessened or eliminated by artificial governmental»restrictions, in Give business a fair deal—apd it will go-ahead a t a breath­ taking pace. Continue to stifle-business, to regard all business men as cheats and profiteers, and real and permanent prosper­ ity must become the idlest of dreams. One could not expect much relief from taxation after reading the list of recommendations in the resolutions passed at the last annual meeting of the Ohio Farm Bureau Federation. :"No New Taxes” was not one of the' pranks in the bureau resolutions,. We would hardly think so when the or-, ganization benefits directly and in­ directly through tax (money ap­ propriated by the legislature. Those who know something about the inside of Farm Bureau operation would hardly believe the leaders would have the agricultural "appropriation hill laid before the citizens of the state showing item by item how much money the department gets and who draws the salaries and how much. Another state department that never bothers much about cost of govern­ ment, and that is the Conservation branch that reaps a fine harvest with each session of the legislature beside having several hundred thousand dol­ lars in various license fees to spend.

SUPREME COURT REMOVES NEW DEAL CORNER STONE The decision of the Supreme Court in enjoining the collec­ tion of processing taxes on rice,' places that whole AAA m*o gram in a totering position, and removes a corner stone of The brain-truster structure. While the decision is not final the point a t issue was an amendment to the AAA as passed by congress when there were suspicions in Ne.v Deal circles that the ori­ ginal law might not stand the test of the courts. The injunction issued Monday is temporary until the court passes on other features of the law* & No other decision can be expected until after December 9th when, the court convenes aga in .. Other cases involve pro­ cessing taxes on corn, wheat, cotton and pork. A weakness in the cotton .act is. that a railroad cannot receive for shipment cotton that has not a government label. When a staple product like cotton produced by an individual grower is placed in a classification like dynamite, opiates and liquor, then we have reached the stage when individual property rights have been lost to each citizen in the nation. The weakness of the AAA relating to pork is that the small packer was being forced out of business due to the fact that his capital investment would not permit credit at banks under government rules, Only about four packing companies in the country were financially able to borrow to care for the process­ ing taxes which the packer owed when the hogs were received over the scales but payable at the end of the month. In as much as meat requires from 90 to 100. days for curing, packers were denied the use of borrowed funds but were forced to pay in­ terest during tha t period before the meat reached the distri­ butor or retailer. The position of the packer has been like the farmer had the law made it mandatory for the farmer to pay the tax before hfe received his pay for the shipment. One of the debatable questions in regard to processing taxes has been as to who really paid them. In farm circles there has been a feeling that the taxes were taken from the market price of hogs, that is packers were not paying top prices the market demanded but holding hack to get the processing tax in tha t maimer. From the retailer angle the taxes come with the price of meat and of course the consumer paid the same way to the retailer. Much of the argument and ill feeling caused from the AAA method has been brought about by the bungled up and crude drawing of the law. It has never been madefcplain in court and of course the average citizen had to accept or choose from the various interpretations, The agricultural department has been responsible for more public sentiment against the law than will any court decision *be. From the first it was broadcast what the law would do. Then came the drouth. The Agricultural Department realizing by this time the unpopularity of the act especially in urban centers, found a new alibi in putting-all the ills of the law'on the drouth. The law drawn as it has been, sentiment of the public as it Is, there can be little more expected than the whole program may not stand a test in the highest court. “Come In” says Gov. Davey to his Democratic opponents, including Sir Franklin and “Call Me Jim.” “I’m In” says Charles Sawyer, who announced Monday as a candidate for the Democratic nomination next May. The Davey Democrats in - Ohio were expecting Sawyer, to announce but probably not a t this, time in view of the reported'demand of Farley that Davey publically decline, to run before; January 1. Davey is known in his party circles as an outcast organization governor. Sawyer,' who was defeated at the last primary by Davey had organization support but lost the nomination with a third candidate, Wm, Pickerel, Day- ton, who ran third. Davey had not been in office but a few days until he scorched the New Deal by exposing the corruption and rottenness in the Roosevelt relief pro­ gram. This brought down the wrath of the Dictator as a reward that us­ ually falls to those who dare to op­ pose powerful political forces. Under all the ordinary rules of the game Davey is entitled to a second nomination but he faces a hard fight to get it. Sawyer has a large fol­ lowing and a fine record as lieutenant governor. He is the owner of several newspapers, has large business inter­ ests besides being a large land own­ er, Is recognized as one of the out­ standing attorneys in Ohio. Should Sawyer secure the nomina­ tion Attorney Ganeral John Bricker as the Republican nominee would have no “walk away.” It behooves the Attorney General to be cautious of his own party leadership. In political circles predictions in­ dicate Bricker could defeat Davey with the Roosevelt crowd double­ crossing a party nominee for gov­ ernor, which would -happen. With Charles Sawyer the Democratic nominee, the. Dnvey followers could hardly defeat him. Bricker would have trouble holding several large counties in line against Sawyer. , .

ADAIR’S N- Detroit St. Xenia, O. From the Cradle to the Grave Taxes Here arc two stanzas from a verse that has been making the rounds re­ cently: “When you light the evening lamp You pay a tax. When you buy a postage stamp You pay a tax. When you buy the baby clothes, When you read the morning news, When you buy a pair of shoes, You pay a tax. When a New Jersey school board changed the name of a high school by adding “Theodore" to Roosevelt, we are re­ minded that a certain Roosevelt dropped the name of “Hoover" fo r Boulder Dam. “When you buy an ice dream cone You pay a tax, , For the water that you drink You pay a tax. When you buy a loaf of bread, When the doctor says you’re dead, When the final prayers.are said, You pay a tax.” It is doubtful if sndder or truer words were ever penned. Taxes be­ gin with the cradle and end only in the grave. And today we are taxed more heavily, and In more ways, than We ever were before. Sit down some time and reflect on the taxes, indirect and direct, that you must pay in tlie course of any day’s normal Activities —^nd you'll get some idea of how necessary real tax reduction is.
