Income, despite new taxes, will amount to a little more than$6,- 000,000,000. As the New York Times observes, this is enough to show “ that our budget has got utterly out of hand.” For the time being, war has obscured the grim fact that this country is moving inexorably toward financial ruin— not only because of debts and deficits in themselves, but because there has been no serious inclination to chart a course that will ultimately bring government spending under control. We have no budget policy, and we have no tax policy. The Federal treasury is regarded as a grab bag. Taxation has been thought of as something with which to soak the rich and get votes. But hidden taxes blanket every necessity and every luxury, and by far the greater part of them are paid by the average citizen. This is the state of the nation financially— fool’s paradise of waste, at a time when it must be strong if it is to survive as a democracy in the stern world o f the future. Bankrupt nations end in anarchy. Anar chy ends in dictatorship, for dictatorship is the only way in which civil order can again be es tablished. Too late the people of a bankrupt democracy discover what keeps democracy alive, namely, a sense of personal responsibil ity for acts of elected public servants, and full realization of the fact that that there is nothing superhuman about government. What govern ment gives, it must first take away. In piling up debt it is taking away from our national fut ure. If it takes away over a long enough period, there will be no future for us as a free people. Mr. and Mrs. H, C.

Other surveys indicate that the demands of war material production in our factories will not seriously dislocate production of consumer goods. W e may have to do without a few man ufactured luxuries as time goes on, but there will lie plenty of the necessities. If our productive facilities are to prove of maximum benefit to the consumer, another fac tor must enter in— and that factor is the distrib utor. Abundance on the farm is wasted unless the crops can be delivered to the buyer at min imum cost. And efficiency in the factory can be offset by inefficiency and waste in distribut ion. But the consumer need not worry. The American distribution machine, like the Ameri can productive machine, is the most efficient in the world. Our competitive system, with all kinds of distributors, chain and independent, seeking to outserve each other, must be given credit for this. When you enter a store and make a purchase you’re getting more for your money, all things considered, than the buyer in any other nation. lightening the burden of NYSSA FUNERAL HOME AM BULANCE SRRVICE Phone 73W Nyssa Exciting New Style Furniture A -i .w fall Sea/ufM' • Come in and select your new Furniture— for any room in your home— pay only a small down payment, the balance in convenient monthly installments.

Another trick of his is to replace a bulb of wattage with a bulb of much smaller wattage. Results o f his rampages are headaches and eye-strain for other members of the household when they are forced to get along with improper light. Antics such as these shouldn’t be tolerated In any home! Eyes need light with which to see, and they need a proper amount o f It! Headaches and many nervous dis orders are known to be results of eyestrain. Studying is both danger ous and difficult in poor light.
