ROStBURG, OREGON, FHIDAV, FEBRUARY 8, 1M4. PAYING ONE'S SHAKE. Pecplc'3 conduct in private matters often differs quite mark edly from the way they behave in their dealings with the community- A great many people fei-1 quite ashamed if they fail to take their share of the costs of any social activities in which they are engaged. Hut some of these same folks, when they come to make out an income tax return, fail to show this anxiety to do their share. They give themselves the benefit of every doubt, and arc disposed to evade payment in ways contrary to the spirit of the law, if they think they can do so safely. People in making out an income return, should be desirous of paying their reasonable and fair share of obligation. If doubtful questions arise, they should be as fearful of paying too little as of paying too much. They should regard paying too little as a refusal to do their honesi part toward the costs of running the country. It should be a satisfaction to them to feel that they are completely fulfilling their obligation. A taxpayer, instead of groaning over the amount of his considerable tax bill, should thank his good fortune that he had attained such a degree of prosperity that he could contribute that amount for the benefit of his country. Some of the people who feel their taxes to be a heavy burden, are spending too much in other directions. They would feel belter to cut out borne extravagances, so as to be able to make their contribution to the government without feeling cramped. The man who makes out a conscientious income return, and is anxious to do his full fchare, has a right to feel pride in his good citizenship, and his high standards of honor will help him in his business affairs. o Production of steel is said to be costing 10 per cent more owing to the elimination of the 12 hour day. It is suggested that in time that increase may be done away by improved methods. IJut even if it is not, the American people do not want to be in the position, save under very exceptional conditions of asking some of their number to work that length of lime daily. There is a golden meaning of work. The man who works too little is likely to lose purpose and personal force- The man who works too much is likely to suffer physical deterioration- and his mind is so con centrated on a narrow groove of activity that it is difficult for his mental powers to grow. Many steel workers having been relieved from the burdens of a very long day, they can fairly be asked to devote themselves to tlieir work with a new energy and enthus iasm. Also the door is opened to them for self improvement and for more intelligent citizenship. o A line from a former popular song runs something like this: "If you hain't got no money, you needn't come around." Some of the young meh and boys rebel at this spirit. They say that many of their young women friends feel indifferent to fellows who are not constantly spending money to drag them around to entertain ments and junkets. The old days when you could court a girl just by calling on her in her parlor and sometimes taking her to n 25 cent entertainment, have passed. The girls may say that if a fellow is stingy with his money in entertaining them, he will be a niggardly husband. However, they should also reflect that the fellow who blows in his cash so freely on them may spend it on less desirable objects after marriage. tSyafleer "ffijF Dear Folks: Comparison's the secret Folks, of all our joys in life. It's pence and knowing what it means, that makes us fight off strife.) It's knowing sorrow and its feel, that makes us all confess, the thing we want the nio.t of all is just plain happiness. We have to touch the depths of want, we have to feel its sting, in order to appreciate the things that riches bring. We! have to lie upon our backs and long again for health, before we1 learn that having it is belter far than wealth. We have to do with-1 out a thing before it.s value shows. It's wearing rags that brings a joy in getting better clothes. It's having sel!s of loneliness, the kind that make you blue, that brings the worth of having friends much clitser Folks, to you. j If life were just an even keel on which we s.iilotl along, if everything was always right, if nothing came, out wrong: We'd never know true happiness no matter how we fared, for what we; bail, with nothing c1m could ever be compared. So take the bitter with the sweet. IV glad that things are so. Kejoice in all you have that's good, don't whimper at a blow. You have to shot! some bitter tears before you learn to smile, remember it's comparison that makes your life worth while. velopmcuts will jeoparduo tl GOOD EVENING FOLKS On next Man. eve The village will Ba viai'.ed by a Flock of Chorue damsels And the sheiks Have hurried to Thair tenta to Trim thair aideburna DUMBELL DORA THINKS A chance acquaintance la a feller you meet at a punch-board.

As cooRres assembled, the politicians announced that this ses sion, tunning as It will up to the li14 national conventions, would prove a test of Tresldet Coolldice'a political fortunes which ml(!bt be conclusive. What they had ia mind was that congress would prove his ability to lead, to get things done, and to pre vent, by one means or another, the do ing of thlnga inimical to bit adiulnia tration'a policies. His administration had a majority j in name only In both house and sen ate a majority the effectiveness of which was blasted at the outset when the pronresitive blocs in both houBee proved that in coalition with the dem ocrats, they could control the legisla tive aituation. It is now fairly apparent that the testing of Mr. CoolhUe will occur up on two questions, and that upon no others will the record as between the pii'Hldent and congress, have much Im portance In the campaign- These two questions are taxation and the naval oil reserve leasing scandal. The question of reiief for the farm ers of the northwest niUht also be in cluded, but that problem has been re duced to a relatively local one. Also the soldier bonus probably will be rated .by some as. likely to prove a severe test for the president. That seems doubtful, and, in any event, it is Interlocked to a considerable degree with taxation, ao that tbe effect of tbe two may be considered together. A3 for congress. It has settled down into an investigating body and lead ers already are beginning to formu late in their minds plans for adjourn ment in June, and legislative programs to he carried out in the Interval. Tax reduction, a bous bill, some farm relief measures, another tem porary Immigration bill, a measure disusing of Muscle Shoals these seem at this time to be the probable limit of congressional activity, over and above the regular appropriation bills. Adjournment by Juue 7 Is al ready tentatively planned. The Tax Program To return to Mr. Coolidge's "test ing" It Is already under way. The president has mystified some of his friends and a good many of hia poli tical enemies by his steadfast repeti tion that he will accept no comprom ise on the Mellon tax reduction plan. It Is hard for a good many observers to understand why the president is bo emphatic about this, and appears to go out of bis wy to emphasise it. In congress there is no longer any at tempt to disguise the fact or to evade the certainty that there must be a radical change In the Mellon program if any tux reduction is to be accom plished. , The central brace of the Mellon plan, upon which the rest of the struc ture is hung, will never be accepted either by the democrats or the pro gressives, unless they are all bluffing outrageously now. This Is the pro vision cutting to 25 per cent the maxi mum surttix on big incomes. The max imum now is 50 per cent. . Mr. Coolidge has said definitely he would not accept any material devia tion from Mellon's figure. Therefore, it both he and the congressional groups maintain their position, there will be no tHX legislation, and the president and his party will be charg ed with responsibility for this failure. They will be charged with letting a desiro to benefit men of great wealth stand in the way of tax reduction for the masses. Their reply to uch a charge has al ready been made vigorously it being that the Mellon surtax reduction is not In the Interest of tbe rich, but means more revenue for the govern ment and more capital for business and industry. However, the opposition argument could be counted on to ap peal more strongly to the millions w-ho saw themse..-:s . cheated by collie means of tax reduction. There la therefore every reason to believe that Mr. Coolldgo and con gress will get together on tax reduc tion before the republican national convention meets June 10. ' Ttjpo- Dome Scandal Thp Teapot Iome scandal has al ready been recoi:nUed by Mr. Coolidge as a part of his test, and he has moved to clear the skirts of his ad ministration from its taint. How far he will go depends on what tho var kins investigations under way dis close in the ay of actionable facts. The president can be expected to do what these farts seen) to him to war rant, and not what popuinr clamor de mands. While at this time everv thing points to government action to annul tli Teapot luuiie and California leases Mr. Coolule's eminent eonusel may reKrt to him that there Is no legal ground for annulment and then Mr. Is the Baking - .jtc .18 lle J nmA , - "wines f 1r ar,(fiffki?3 v TJie Perfect havener oS a Nation Coolidge will have to decide whother be wants to go to the length of say ing "that, even If there are no legal flaws in the leases, they are so mani festly against public policy that they will be annulled anyway. The situation that now confronts the president U one calculated to show whether, under stress,, he is a man who sways to political oi popular pressure, or a man who cannot be swerved from what he has decided is the right course, no matter how wrong that course may appear to others, lrefto elp.d 1 hsi vth. o This is a Studebaker year. o (Associated press Leased Wire.)
