Tax Limitation and Reduction Procniftleun Treatment of Budgets. By JAMES If. GILBERT. What should be trie trend of gov ernmental budgets In the future? No economist or public official can give a certain answer. AH depends on the expansion or curtailment of public functions. If the onty "safe guide to the future Is found In the experi ence of the past," functions and ser vices are not likely to be curtailed rather extended. Still another tincertaln factor af fecting the money cost of government Is the probable price level of the fu ture. The price level of the present Is stilt 30 percent under that of 1926. Even though Inflation be controlled and currencies managed, prices may rise 25 to 30 percent In the next five years. With rising costs of living, wagcj and salaries of public officials should bo adjusted to a higher level. Pay cuts were upheld on the ground of falling costs of living and Increased buying power of tho dollar. It's a poor rule that won't work both ways. It Is a well known fact ttiat salaries on public employment In Oregon are unduly low. They must be xippod somewhat If private business undnr the stimulus of returning prosperity does not draw away the most com petent publlo servants by the offer of better pay. In the face of almost certain In creaso on tho money cost of govern ment the tax limitation measure pro pones a 30 percent cut from tho 1935 tax levy. It reminds one of tho story of Procrustes, the old outlaw in Greek mythology. He lured his vic tims to his lair and tried them on the famous bed. If the victim was too short he stretched him out to fit. If he was too long old Pro crustes lopped off the overhang, Sponsors of the amendment differ from Procrustes In two particulars. They assume that the victim Is 20 psreent too long and Instead of one amputation the process Is mercifully spread over a period of five years.

Beale DETROIT, Oct. 14. (AP) Henry Ford formally declared his support for Gov. Alf ,M. tndon today as the Republican presidential nominee pur sued a cross state campaign for Mich lean's 19 electoral votes. "I admire and believe In him; I tope he is elected," the motor car manufacturer said In a statement after conferring with the Kansas gov ernor. "I am not criticizing the New Deal," Ford continued. "I am only saying that we have had enough of It, we have had about all the country can stand." The veteran Industrialist, who talk ed with Landon together with his son Edsel, stated his position for the first time just before Landon headed his campaign forces toward Grand Rap Ids. Landon Sees Threat The candidate said the New Deal was a "threat to our American form of government" In an address last night before thousands massed In the chill windswept American league baseball park. ' Concentration of power In the hands of President Roosevelt, Landon said In the third major address of his lake states campaign, represented the "first steps" toward destruction of the "rights and liberties of the peo ple" which would make the executive "all powerful." Promising, If elected, to ask repeal of all laws "giving autocratic powers to the chief executive,' Landon called upon his Democratic opponent to "tell us before election day Just what amendments to the constitu tion he has In mind." This reference to the president was followed by booes from tho audience. Ford pictured Landon as "a busi ness man who knows how to make both ends meet," and who "ate out of dinner bucket for years and still thlnka along with the men who carry dinner buckets." Ford Well Impressed 'I ga'lned three very distinct Im pressions of him," the tall, thin auto mobile magnate said. "First, he Is exceptionally well Informed and has experience along many lines; second. he Is able to apeak his mind In the frankest way he Is open and honest In hi opinions; third, he knows In Western AAA Conclave These three men will play Important roles In the western conference of AAA motor club officials, scheduled for Portland .Thursday and Fri day, October 15 and 26.

Ford sp.ld "what disturbs me Is that the New Deal la now making to the workmen the same Impossible pro mises that It made to the business man.' , Ford said New Deal "Intentions may have been good but Its perfor mance was very poor." "As a manufacturer." he said. "I have been Its special target for about three years, but I don't bold that e gainst It It has kept me thinking. Alt of us have to thank the New Deal for keeping us on the alert for our country." Without naming Ford, Landon drew applause In bis open air speech when he said tho automobile Indus try "resisted" NRA, and "one of Its most distinguished . leaders never signed the code of the blue eagle."
