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. A
