(That's the. “Single Tax’’ Plan) Voters who think they will get out of taxes by voting out the sales tax, should be warned that there is a goblin in that measure that is sure to get them if they “‘don’t ‘watch 99 out, _ As everybody knows, or should know by this time, vot-} ing out the sales tax automtaically votes in the single tax. The measure is so worded. It may-look good to some, to think that all taxes under this system, will be saddled onto the land owner, but the land owner is not the only one who will suffer. ‘Those unable to own their own homes or business pro erty, and who pay rent are the persons who will suffer first and worst, for they will have to pay the costs. It will not matter whether the land owners find themselves able to pay the extra burden, or are obliged to let their property go to the state for delinquent ‘taxes’ ‘the tax still must be collected from the land. Tenarit farmers will find the rents raised so high they will not be able to continue farming. Families living in rented houses, or doing business in rented buildings, will find their rents raised so high they will not be able tomeet the morithly payments. When all the various forms of taxation now in force are lumped together and piled exclusively onto the land’it will drive thousands. of business firms out of business, thousands of tenant farmers out of their farm homes, and thousands of home renters out of their homes. ‘The single tax proposition actually resolves itself into a government based on renta! payments for its support. _Its ultimate aim is for the state to be the sole owner of all real property, and all the people renters from the state. No man will then own his own home, or the surety of a permanent abiding place.—Orland Unit. IF itt 107 Mill St. 4 qos ‘Grass Valley The studio that satisfies.
