and novel approach to the views of K arl Marx, whose
Das Kapital is the bible of Communism. He asks, “Why
did Marx, in seeking social and economic justice for the
masses, believe th at neither could ever be achieved under
the conditions im plicit in capitalism and democracy?
“The answ er is easy. M arx observed th e conditions
th at existed in mid-19th century, w hen children toiled
12 hours a day, w hen the usual work day was dawn to
dark, when w orkers w ere w ithout organization or pro
tection, when most em ployers actually did exploit their
employees, when business m orality as we know it today
was not even dream ed of.
“P rivate ow nership of the m eans of production and
profits seemed hateful to M arx because at th at time, in
Europe and in England, there was no evidence that the
system could ever create the conditions of social justice
that Marx desired.”
Mr. Hubbell observes there is m uch m ore to the
M arxian theory than just this. However, as he says
further, there is good reason for believeing th at "Marx
today would be anti-com m unist and anti-R ussian.”
It is perfectly true that M arx saw, at first hand, the
very worst results of the industrial revolution So far
as the masses of the people w ere concerned, it was one
of the c ru d e st eras the world has known. And the point
that Mr HubbeU is m aking is th at th e m odern counter
part of that era is found in the Soviet Union and the
other communist states. They have tu rn ed back the
clock. Slave labor is commonplace, th e standerd of liv
ing is incredibly low, and fear and te rro r rule. When
M arx lived, the concentration of pow er th at produced
these conditions was held by industry and commerce.
Now, in the communist countries, it is in th e hands of
the governm ent and, as a result, is infinitely more dif
ficult to correct.
Even the trade-unions, which did so m uch to better
the lot of working people, particu larly in th e ea rly days,
have been victims of com m unists policies. In Russia
and her satellite states, they exist—b u t in nam e only
They are literally a division of the governm ent, run by
labor commissars who obey to the letter each order of
the top governm ent officials. T heir principal purpose is
to hold the w orkers in line and to get rid of dissidents.
In a police state, the police and th e ir spies are every
where and no m an who w ants to keep on living dares
to protest, even in the circle of his family.
Capitalism, by its very nature, tends alw ays to be
come more just, due to forces which can control it. The
record shows th at communism invariably exploits the
masses for the benefit of a very sm all ruling class.

ersy at the opening of the hearing
held last Friday.
The old budget contained an Item
of $10J>25, representing a refund
from the state for the county health
department, which the county will
not now receive because of elimin
ation of the full-time unit.
The estimated receipts amount to
$135,373, which Is $7.398 larger than
the estimated receipts in the or
iginal budget. This $7.398 also rep
resents the difference between the
$17.923 Increase and the $10.525 re
duction in estimated receipts.
The six per cent limitation law
allowed a maximum of $273.709 for
the general fund.

Judge Troxell said at the Friday
hearing that the county has more
than $600.000 in bock taxes on the
books, but said it will collect only
a small per centage of the money
this year Collection of back taxes
Is Just about always offset by de
linquencies for the current year, the
Judge said.
E. E. Clark, chairman of the bud
get board, said before several doz
en persons crowded into the office
that “I am asking only that we
handle thLs matter on a proper book
keeping plan''.
The chairman said he wanted to
Include anticipated collections on
delinquent taxes. Judge Troxell and
other members of the county court
objected
Dudley Sitton. Ontario farmer and
former superintendent of the Mal
heur experimental area, insisted that
taxes represent accounts receivable
and the county Is certain to collect
mast of them.
O E. Cheldelin. a member of the
budget board, suggested paying back
the $39.000 the general fund owes
other funds in two or three years,
but Judge Troxell said the entire
amount must be placed in the bud
get for the coming year.
Sitton said "You are $39.000 in
the red that Is backed up by taxes
You might end up with a deficit
next year, but that's no crime; you
are putting in the $39.000 this year"
The district attorney said the
budget should include an estimate
of anticipated delinquent tax col
lections. Clark suggested the board
include $15.000 for tax collections, f
but It rejected the $15.000 and voted
for $10.000 Later the amount was
increased to $17.923
