PLEASE pardon us for bring ing up that one again about man-bites-dog. But if it's news when a man bites a dog, then something we have discovered , must be news. Our experts who look into such things have been looking into our tax records. They've found that in seven western states there are 20 counties where we do not pay taxes. This is a fairish record con sidering the fact that these states contain 237 counties, or 217 counties where we do pay taxes. In California, Oregon, Washington, and Arizona, our record is unanimous. It's only in the farther reaches of Idaho and Utah and in one county in Nevada that we miss. We don't refer here to any of the special taxes which bur - den the oil industry simply to the ordinary kind which merchants, home-owners, farm ers, and property owners of every sort, everywhere are called upon to pay. They're the kind which help maintain good schools, fire de partments, parks, playgrounds. They help care for the needy aged. They help pay for a hundred phases of - welfare work.
