HOW MUCH WAS THE BUDGET CUT?
Just how much the county budget was cut by the com
mittee has been the subject of disputed statements. Dis
regarding all that has been said let us confine ourselves to
official figures:
The 1982 budget as certified to the assessor by the levy
ing board after the taxpayers meeting was $1,050.394.90.
The 1933 budget estimate as advertised calls for $947,-
661.10, which on the face of things looks like a cut of $102,-
733.74. But before we say a saving to the taxpayers let us
deduct the amount difference between the high school fund
and the amount last year raised under the Wheeler law, be
cause this is not a tax saving but a tax shifting, which real
ly amounts to two county budgets—one for high school dis
tricts and one for non-high school districts.
From the $102,733.74 subtract $31,820 and then there
is a saving of $70,913.74, as far as the taxpayers pockets are
concerned. This is the amount we are to be thankful for.
Carrying the arithmetic one step farther, lowering
valuation automatically lowered the elementary school fund
some $55,000- Subtract this from the budget estimate differ
ence and we have $15,913.74. This is the amount we have to
thank the budget committee for.
Of course we are very thankful that we will have to dig
up some $71,000 less next year. And for whatever saving
the budget committee made they are to be congratulated.
It is a time that if things are allowed to run their natural
course the budget might have been greatly increased, and
most of the items that actually were increased it might be
said was forced upon the committee by law or by actual
necessity.
We hope there will be a good attendance at the taxpay
ers meeting December 28. Last year the taxpayers meeting
cut $50,000 from the budget. We think that with ail the
trimming so far there is some excess fat on the old budget
bone y e t
WHAT OF THE SOCIALISTS?
Straw votes which were exceedingly accurate in fore
casting a democratic victory fell short of estimating the
Socialist strength. Before the election the Literary Digest
poll showed nearly 5 per cent socialist or a two million
popular vote for Thomas. He received less than 700,000.
While many people talk socialistic they don’t vote that
way it is evident. Largely we think because the Republican
and Democratic parties are becoming more and more liber
al History if it records anything can not but regard Hoover
and Roosevelt the most liberal leaders their respective
parties ever had.
Certainly the farm relief program and all this recon
struction legislation to aid the depression is the most social
istic action the government has ever taken. And one might
add that it is all working about as well as socialistic prin
ciples ever work. We can’t legislate ourselves prosperous
any more than we can wish ourselves rich. We predict
that socialism will never reach the million popular vote
mark. After an area of liberalism the world has heretofore
swung back to conservativeism. We think proof is lacking
that it will not do it again.
THE FARMERS' CONFERENCE
We don’t know, because nobody knows, just how much
will be accomplished by the Farmers’ «National Relief Con
ference, which is to meet in Washington in December, but
we don’t see how any harm can come from it, and there is a
possibility that a great deal of good may come.
We will feel a lot more confident about the possible
good, however, when we find out just who is going to re
present the farmers. If the plan is carried out of having only
real ‘dirt farmers,’ really representative of the farming com
munities of all parts of the country, we think a great deal of
good can be done. We will be very distrustful if there are
politicians and office seekers pretending to represent the
farmers at this conference. We have no confidence at all in
a great many of the persons who have in the past been
spokesman for agriculture in Washington.
We think it will be the greatest value to have the actual
farmers who know precisely what they are talking about
right there in the national capital to tell their own story di
rectly to members of congress and administrative officials
<«< 9«ne caravan
farmers is already enroute from the Pa-
clfic Coast for Washington. We understand that there will
be farmer delegations from about thirty states arriving in
Washington in six marching delegations. So far as their
program has been formulated, we understand that they
want to get assurance against evictions from their farms,
a moratorium on debts which they cannot pay and cash re
lief to relieve hunger. Those are reasonable proposals, al
though we are not at all sure that it is necessary for the
farmers to march in a body to Washington to get them.
We are glad to learn that the police officials of the Dis-
tr cT of Columbia are preparing to cooperate in every way
with the farmer delegates and we hope, and confidently
believe, that there will be no repetition of the disorder of
last summer.
If out of this demonstration comes a sound, Intelligent
practical plan of helping the fanners who need help without
wasting money on impractical schemes or throwing it away
for the benefit of those who do not need it, this farmers’
convention ought to be a success.
We re waiting to hear someone blame the veterans for
shooting away too much expensive ammunition at the Ger
mans. One might almost think it was the veterans’ private
war the way some folks talk. However we have yet to see
a veteran who was consulted before declaring the war.
Amelia Earhart has started a fight for sex equality,
news dispatches say. But Amelia is a little late, that fight
has been waged for years in almost every household. Now
that Amelia’s name is Putman, she seems to be out to nut
man in his place.
Well the South Americans have not asked our govern
ment formally to forgive any of their war debts. But we
have been told that they have called pretty heavily upon
some of our private citizens who loaned them money for
lithographed paper.
We may have a ‘new deal” but most of us are out of
chips.
