The outlook for the winter wheat crop is for nearly a fourth less production than last year. If Secretary Jar dine continues his efforts to eliminate price manipulation, maybe the wheat grower will stand a fair chance to get ns good a price at hai-vest time as the speculator got last winter. With improving crop conditions and prospect) here in Union and Wallowa counties the 'growers should experience a good year. A niun worth over fifty million dollars who. died last year had paid no federal income taxes since 1916, accord ing to an investigation of his estate. Yet he evaded his share of taxes legally, buying tax exempt bonds of his state and city, yielding 412 per cent interest. If it had not been for this he would have been compelled to pay over 1 $650,000 in income tax toward the expenses M tht firttera1 goyemmeiit. Someone paid that amount in his place and some day we will have a law doing away with future issues . of tax exempt bonds and thereby distribute the burden Jijorc equally to those who can afford to carry it. ' SOLICITING BUSINESS MKN. ,' When there is money to be raised for any local enter i prise or tickets to be sold for some organization benefit, . business and professional men are naturally solicited. La Grande is not peculiar in that respect, as it is true of all : towns and cities everywhere. And it is tho natural thing to do. Tho business district offers the greatest number of prospects in the smallest possible area and solicitors under , such circumstances naturally seek the business houses first. The result is that the business man, if he is not directly interested in the fund being raised or tho benefit hems arranged, looks upon such requests for funds somewhat in the nature of pests. They want to help some things and turn down others and possibly at tiie end of the month ,whon tho total of contributions is added up before them they are inclined to oppose all such activities. Yet tho individuals seeking to get this revenue have few other sources open to them and they are sincere in thinking that their requests are worthy and deserving. For the average business man, however, there is a limit to which ho can go with such things, lie should, in jus tice both to himself and the community, draw a lino some where and simply register a few turn-downs. Some busi ness men hesitate to do this because they fear it will cause antagonisms and a loss in trade. That's bunk. Solicitor;:, ticket and tag sellers and subscription seekers are ardent but they are also generally reasonable and endowed with a certain measure of intelligence. If a man can't affoid to buy a ticket or make a .subscription and says so in a nice, tactful way, explaining his position and the demands that are made for many things, no one whose trade is of any value is going to carry that turn-down as a "pet peeve" the rest of his life and no organization is going to lake offense at a condition its members can readily appreciate. If business men will give such solicitors a hearing and buy or contribute, or absolutely lvl'use to do so, on bi own interpretation of the merits of the cause and on his financial ability to helpif this can become a general prac tice, solicitation will soon be put on a sensible, business basis and will cease to be a much hated burden. Civic welfare and betterment requires such solicitation at times but it should not require it in such a way as continually to make business and professional interests "the goat."
