Governor Lehman of New York, recently effected a reduc tion of 2.» per cent in that state’s income tax. And Governor Sprague of Oregon has announced that he will urge the legis lature to reduce the Oregon income tax by 2.’» percent. The people are entitled to the greatest possible tax re trenchment. Federal war taxation is the highest in history, and going much higher. It is up to states, towns, (.»unties. seho »1 districts and all taxing bodies, to pare their budgets to the ab solute limit. Surveys made o f local government indicate that there is a tremendous amount of over-lapping o f depart me.its. duplica tion of activity, etc. Experts are convinced that it is perfectly leasilde to reduce the cost of local government by hundreds of millions a year without eliminating any actually essential ser vice. Governors Lehman ami Sprague have taken a position that should he adopted by all public ottieials. The people cannot pay lor war. and pay for unnecessary governmental functions at the same time, either local or federal.

Anzac omen on the Alert From now until the fall election we are likely to hear much about how to win the war from candidates who want our votes. Fnless we do win the war. we are ull sunk and the idea of harping on the one thing as a slogan and trying to straddle fences on other issuis won’t go very far with the intelligent voter More and more the people must realize that sacrifices must be made and that we must forget about some of the luxur ies we have enjoyed in the past, but hate to give up. We are fighting an enemy w ith a low standard of living who in years past has virtually conscripted labor and capital to build the armaments we must destroy if we are to win. Watch out for the screwy theories after the war and in time of reconstruction. Lew Ayres, the former movie star and eonseienti.ms ob jector, is tired of his Oregon camp ami wants to get into some kind ot nan-combative service, according to press reports. We wonder if a number of these objectors ever stop to think about what would happen to them if their liberty and religious free- (.om were taken away. Looks like their right to be an objector ought to »ie worth fighting for. even if war is horrible. April lith has been designated us ‘ ‘ Victory Book D a y ” ic president has asked every one to contribute as many g,‘.od books as they can spare to men in the armed forces.
