It is the poli cy of government to make it so and the BLM merely reflects that TAX < I I We find ourselves in agreem ent with Senator H arry Byrd on the subject of a tax cut for the rate payers of the United States. For one thing it is Iteing proposed ;u, a political measure, not as an admission that government has Iteen taking too much from the jjeople. Ami it is only expected to be temporary. Certainly this country would be Improved by a reduction in the amount of income governm ents of all kinds take from the people for the very simple reason that all governem nts are motivated by tin ambitions of jN>liticians and ore very Inefficient. Government spending is the most expensive. If the federal government would curtail its expenditures, and cut its budget it would be a great help. If the job was done well enough it could begin paying on the national debt which is an economic disgrace. We think Americans would gladly pay even the present high rate of taxes if they were reducing the debt and not just piling up bad habits among indigent recipients (here and abroad) of our tax money. Taxpayers could not look for ward to saving anything from a tax cut a-, pres« ntly propose«!. In terest on the national debt would go on and their would I m ? no dim- Inuation in exjienses. It would all have to I k * | aid some time and delay would merely Increase the burden. For that reason It is merely a political trick, done to imluce spending, not to cur«> a long continued disease in the na- tii nai economy. No perm anent good co u ld co m e fr< in it and w? hope it do«\s not come to pass. I H ill IV, Al’C l’ftT J, 19«.!

The experience of land manag ing agencies show s that acts of de predation on public lands result from the failure to adm inister public recreation, not from the adm inistration of it. For example, establishm ent of cam pgrounds re duces the danger of man-cause«! fiies and unsanitary conditions The job of a land managing ag ency is to manage the land, but to do so it must deal with outd«xir recreation or a m ajor land use. ar.d it m ust deal with the human nature of people. Preventing need less or thoughtless depredation on public lands i« prim arily a res ponsibility of the individuals themselves. Citizen groups, such a; the Izaak Walton League and the scouting organizations, are to We do not mind lielng old fa shioned and feel real good about it when we are right. CHANGES COMING The letting of big contracts for work on the John Day dam and the highway and railroad reloca tion attendant thereto together with the nearing completion of the Sam Hill bridge should be am ple w arning of impending chan ges for Sherman county. We do not see how very much oi the county can continue its social and economic isolation i inch longer with increased trans portation coming from all direc tions, a big dam almost ready to furnish some of th«- cheapest elec tricity in the world, a decreasing demand for wheat and a shortage of some other foods.
