The games were ment into business, furnishes a per- fect illustration of the confusion and bitterness which gener ally re- sults when an attempt is made to in- private enterprise. As is generally the case, develop- ment lags, the investor and indus- tries are discouraged; and in the long run the taxpayer is loaded with a heavy financial burden as the result of politics being played at public expense. DOLLARS DO NOT GROW ON TREES The manner in which taxes are mounting and the staggering bur- dens they are putting upon all the people should give concern to ev- ery individual who has any interest in the future of Our Country. It seems to be easy to incur oblica- tions and get into debt and corres- pondingly difficult to curtail extrav- agance and get free from our bond, warrant and interest burdens. While federal taxes have been re- duced by hundreds of millions since 1921, state and local taxes have risen twice as fast as federal taxes have been reduced. Local taxes of municipaalities and dis- tricts of one sort and another, which are organized on various pre- texts for the purpose of sible for the orgy we are passing through. Every tax dollar comes from the pockets of the people. It does not grow on money trees. Every dollar wasted or spent unecessarily is a dollar of capital destroyed. It has ceased earning, developing and pro- ducing. Business and property cannot for ever endure this increasing drain, this steady confiscation of capital. OVERREACHING STATE RIGHTS The claim of federal control of water rights is an example of gradual encroachment on the states. In an able editorial, the Portland Oregonian of May 3 says: “The government controls nravi- gable rivers for purposes of navi- gation tion of dams for that purpose. As the same dams develop water power, it assumes authority to li- cense construction of power plants, and logically that of dams for both uses. In many cases it owng the shore land needed for buildings, and thus has direct as] well as indirect control over use| of water for power. The govern-|, ment owns land along unnavigable]| streams flowing through public do-| main and controls power develop- ment by owning the power sights. | In law, the states are sovereign ov-| er the water for all purposes ex-| cept navigation. but their control is rendered ineffective by federal ownership of shore land and by federal authority to license dams. “In the Colorado basin, the states strive to hold in substance a right on which only the shadow re- mains to them. By attempting to draw them into a compact the fed- | eral government recognized their lawful rights. Arizona and Utah dissent, and the n#tion now under- takes to supplant the shadow with the substance, which it holds.
