KLAMATH FALLS W AN INDEPENDENT REPUBLICAN NEWSPAPER WEDNESDAY, SEPi THE KLAMATH DAILY NEWS "Let ui hr faith that right makes might, and in that faith let u to the end dare to do our duty we understand it." Abraham Lincoln. Somebody Mast Pay Taxes Tax Exempt Scvr..V ; Impose Heavy Burden Topular opinion probably will eventually concentrate in sufficient force to cause the elimination of the obvious ly unfair practice by jrovernment of issuing tax-exempt bonds. In effect it is nothing less than making the weak shoulder the burden of the strong. Tax-exempt securi ties impose a burden ir. more ways than one on all industries. Radio and the Camper The Great Outdoors Knows All These Days I A twist of the radio dial is all that stands between the camper and a world of entertainment and informa tion. With the air crowded with broadcast waves carry ing music, news of the day, stock and market reports, weather forecasts and other information, the radio re ceiver, in even the remotest camp, will furnish no end of service to those who have sought the great outdoors. Sound Railroad System Essential Earnings of Railroads Sound Business Barometer There is no better barometer of business conditions than earnings of railroads. Gross earnings indicate vol ume of freight movement and travel. Net income shows degree of prosperity of railroads themselves. It is highly important that the carriers be prosperous in order to at tract new money to create new facilities for moving in creased traffic which results from increasing populations. Volume of traffic has been and continues exceedingly large, which indicateprosjjery inproictioij aiui mar keting, while the prompt delivery which can now be re-' lied upon is evidcrice of increased efficiency in operation. The margin between profit and loss for railroads is so slight that any unwise rate policy can easily cripple the dividend-paying power of a railroad and thus prevent it from securing capital for needed extensions and im provements. The loss to shippers and travelers from such a policy is much greater than would ever be occasioned by the granting of adequate rates. Every Tax Reduction Helps None Escape Taxes Cuts Are Welcome About 9,000,000 persons make income tax returns. But 100,000,000 more Americans help make the money the 9,000,000 pay- None escape the tax. The govern ment spends $10,000,000 a day. The people have to earn that money and pay it to the government. If federal economy causes a saving of $1, 000, 000 a day, the money saved will not be piled up to make a treasury surplus, but left in the hands of the people. Unfortunately, to a large extent, national government economies are offset by local government extravagances or bad management. ,But the fact that there is saving anywhere is cause for rejoicing. A cut in the income tax at least will save money to help pay local taxes until they also may be reduced.

I:llnl.rlli Thompson Dinner Stories A lawyer was defending a m:tn .Accused houschreaukiK, aud-aid -to the conrt: "Your Honor, ! submit that my client did not break into the house at all. He found the parlor win dow open and merely inserted his right arm and removed a few trifling articles. Now, my client's arm is not himself, and 1 fail to see how you can punish the whole individual for an offense commit ted by one of his limbs." "That argument," said the judge. "Is very well put. Following It logically, I sentence the defend ant's arm to one year's Imprison ment. He can accompany it or not, as he chooses." The defendant smiled, nnd with his lawyer's assistance unscrewed bis cork arm, and leaving It in the dock, walked out.

This Is a sure sign of win ter coming on. Three hundred thousand of the 400,000 dwellings erected annually in our country are built of lumber, and the proportion appears to be increasing. General adop tion of certain lumber standards is giving assurance to lumber consumers that they will get lumber of the best utility for customary construction uses, well manufactured and carefully graded. In the past there were about 30 different sets of lum ber grading specifications at least one for every import ant species of commercial timber. Familiarity with one set did not insure dependable knowledge of others, and great confusion resulted. Now the buyer has only to designate the species hit prefers for particular uses, know ing that the same general grading Rize and rules apply to all. - She had engaged a maid recently from the country, and was now employed in showing her newly ac quired treasure over the house and enlightening her in regard to vari ous duties, etc. At last they mach ine library.
