, PREPARE FOR SOME CHANGE
Ofta of tho most perjtnxin thing about living in 1933 in
that tho w6iid'is rcadinjr thinkers scenl quite unable to Make
iifi their minds whether we arc approaching a sunset or a
dawn. If you nose through the books, magazine articles and
' interviews in which thoughtful men try to appraise the
' present situation you will find two schools of thought rere-l
dented. ' '
; According: to one school, the end of all things is at hand,
nd a great darkness is about to settle down over the waters,
' Capitalism is done forwest'eWi civilization is about to cok
j lapse and the world is aboul to enter a new dark age. '
According to the other school, our present woes are just
' tho birth pangs of a new order 'of life. We are going through
;! a great change, and paying for it lit misery and confusion,
hut when tho change is finished things will le almost in
finitely better than they Were before. There will be more
freedom and less poverty, more peace and less war, more
' happiness and less' desperate uncerttinty.
, Each crew of prdgnbsticiltors can assemble a multitude
' it facts and a whole, string of clover arguments to prove its
( case. You can get damnation with your morning coffee and
Salvation with your after-dinner cigaret if you like, and each
' forecast will seem to be absolutely fool-woof. ' h
Now all of this, however conflicting it may be, docs "seem
' to indicate one thing Indisputably; that we have reached plio
f history's great turning points, and that no matter what
, tho future brings us It ,1s going, 16 bo something dif fcroht
than what wo have had before. M- better or for worse, we
- havo come uixn a tinib of cliuligb, hnd those of us who don't
. like change seem to be vely liiuch blit of luck.
;: Yet it is also quite possible that tho seers are mostly
vrong. Tho disasters they foresee may not bo quite as bad
as they expect; tho inipiovements Way leave us only a little
bit better off than wo we're. The important thing is that
we accept tho fact that sbino sort of change is coming and
' preparo our minds for It.

by county court h upon tho ground
that tho taxpayers have no prencut
ability to pay, an opinion by Attor-

ruled.
Van Winkle declared that authority
to compromise taxes wna limited to
cases where there Is a real qu cut Ion
as lo the validity of the tax, and the
best Judgment of tho county court
on IhPrto Kiicd Indicates that it
would lie more ,to the financial In
terest of the counties that the coin
promlne be accepted rather than sub
ject the matter, to delays and haz
ards of litigation.
The opinion was requested by ,1. M.
