4 Lancaster Farming, Saturday. January 7, 1967 From Where We Stand... Federal-State Tax Sharing Plan If the historic concept of Federa lism a sharing of responsibility and power between the federal government and the individual states is to sur vive, we must restore a working balance between the two. At present, the see saw is tilted in favor of the national interests at an angle that threatens to hurl the state governments right out of the play yard. One of the several plans for allow ing individual states to keep part of their tax money at home may be part of the answer to restoring some sem blance of balance. The argument in favor of doing so has several important points in its lavor 1— Permitting states to retain a larger share of what they earn in tax revenues will enable them to more vitally carry out their individual respon sibilities to their citizens, and make them less federally dependent. 2 What’s the sense of sending tax dollars to Washington so that some en trenched bureaucrats can perpetuate themselves by doling out federal grants, as they see fit, to the respective states 0 3 As the federal budget has grown, moie and more money has been allocated to such important domestic fields as education, public health, trans portation, and housing In many cases, this federal money has gone directly to municipalities, bypassing state govern ments entirely Elected state officials are often put in the position of being responsible to the voters for programs which they have no authority to ad minister For our system of government to work effectively, and to survive, the federal and state branches have to work as partners The present, strict boss- relationship could be fatal. Whale it is true that states have often invited federal intervention by vacuum within their and as we learned in sixth creating a borders FARM SHOW WEATHER? Well maybe. Temperatures thiough next Wednesday will aveiage below the normal 39 to 24 degree range, says the weatherman. Seasonable tem peratures are expected over the weekend, turning cold er Monday. The big question at this time is how much of what kind of precipitation we can expect? Snow or rain is an ticipated Saturday, continu ing into Sunday. This one shouldn’t be too bad. The trouble spot will be about midweek. Again, weather man says rain or snow, but gives no guestimate on amount But, as every Farm Show goer knows, the Show tames along its own special biand of weathei, and it doesn’t rely on any scientific weather foiecaster so, Watch Out! • Tobacco Show (Continued fiom page 1) Hie Ba\uk Cigai Co waiehouse on \ Wdtei Stieet, Lancas tei was about 50 entires shoit of la c l ycai s event, accoiding to county agent Ar nold Lueck Rahiei not only won two championships, but had to beat hii own entries to do it His long wiapper and fillei hands veie the only tobacco in those da ->es to beat his shoit wiap pei and filler entries, giving him icseive champion honois as well grade science class, the federal govern ment abhors a vacuum it is equally true, we feel, that this plan to provide states with the right to treat their own wounds with retained tax dollars is a step in the right direction. Hopefully, it is one of the many bright prospects which the new, 90th Congress will bring to fruition. ★ ★ ★ ★ State's Consumers Target Of 51st Farm Show With the theme “A Progressive Agriculture Benefits You The-Con sumer”, the 51st Pennsylvania Farm Show in Harrisburg next week will focus attention of the more than 12- million consumers in the Keystone State to the wonders of Pennsylvania agricul ture. Thousands of city and small town folks are attracted each year to this mammoth show now the largest free indoor agricultural exposition in the United States under one roof. It is tradi tionally a showplace for Pennsylvania’s diverse agricultural products. Governor William W. Scranton said in the Farm Show program that the exhibits will include “the finest pro ducts that come from field and orchard, and some of the best livestock and poultry that are to be found anywhere ” The theme of the 51st Farm Show “is a token portrayal of the substance and services that link farm and dinner table The energy that goes into this great exposition, and the high quality that is evident in all departments, con firm agriculture’s potential for provid ing a continuing supply of consumers’ most important need,” Scranton said. The 1967 Farm Show will open at 8 a.m., Monday, January 9, and will officially close on Friday the 13th, at 2 p.m. Last year’s 700,000 estimated atten dance smashed all records. Farm Show officials are hopeful that 1967 will be the biggest year yet as the Farm Show goes into its second half century of pro gress.
