The war brdeet for the fiscal year 1942-43 amounts-to $77,000,000,000. Existine taxes will realize $17,000,000,000. ADDITIONAL taxes, exceeding $6,000,000,000, must be levied. Those enormous figures benumb the lay But their impact upon the average imagination. man’s life becomes grimly realistic when no less an authority than Randolph E. Paul, tax advisor to the U. S. Treasury, warns that a moratorium on private debts may. become necessary so taxpayers may meet new income taxés. Paul reported to Congress last week. __ Many individuals are finding it difficult, if not impossible, to continue amortizinz the mortgages on their homes, or to maintain premium payments on life insurance and endowment contracts, or perhaps even payments on instalment pvurchases of automobiles, refrigerators, etc. The hardships re-. sulting from the imposition of heavy income taxes on persons with commitments to repay debts present a difficult problem. The problem—could be dealt with from a wider point of view . by some sort of more or less general moratorium on debt pay. ments, at least for home owners.” Those irrefutable tax figures, and Paul’s.expert opinion, ‘confirm the judgment and foresight of California citizens who have placed upon our November ballot the initiative for repeal of the California State income tax. doesn’t need income tax revenues, now that it is warrich and on a cash basis. The state can only pile up unneeded tax revenues’ as surplus, or spend such revenues on non-essentials. while patriotic taxpayers vaily find it more difficult to meet Uncle Sam's verv real and ursent war. needs for money. Whether or not it shall become necessary to declare a national moratorium on some forms of private debt. it is unquestion‘ably necessary that Californians declare a moratorium on that galling, superfluous state income tax by voting it out of existence next November 3. NO COMPROMISE It is refreshing to have in Earl Warren a ~andidate for governor who is honest with the people and who stands on principle. largely to the ham and leaders: he encourased them to We have a governor now who owes his election eggers. Culbert Olson dealt: with their political time serving, pensions think that he «ras on their side ~ and would further their scheme. After their followers had vot-, ed for him, and elected him, he double“crossed them, so to say. . crat alike.can. suscribe to those It would be a reflection on Governor Olson's intellect to sav! that he did not know the ham and eg¢ chimera, if it carried, jhe will grab off the Republican would be ruinous to California. He is smarter than that. /n any event. neither his deal with them nor the runout powder he took afterward was the act of a man of principle. Attorney General Warren is for an adequate. orideful pension system for everyone, for the continual imnrovement . of California’s present system to the limit of the ability of the people, and for a competent national system. He faces this issue as every other, with complete integrity and candor. We need in everv snhere of rolitical life men who will not compromise their principles, whe will view their iobs in the light of honest service to the people—we believe the time ‘has come when the people are ready to turn to a man who is as honest as he is able and will elect Earl Warren this fall_— S. F. Chronicle. ARE YOU A GOOD CITIZEN? California's registration of voters is at a level far below that of two years ago. San Francisco's registration is down 10 per cent. Los Angeles has dropped 13 per cent. San Diego 13.4 per cent, Sacramento 13 per cent, Marin County 13.2 per cent, Contra Costa County; 4.4 per cent. record for California. This is year, and in a few days—July That is a bad an important general election 16 — the books close for the August primary. Good citizens who read this, and who have neglected to register, will mark that date—and get their names down ahead of the deadline. THE WRATH TO COME _ News in Rhyme Over KJBS daily at 12:30 Written by Harley M. Leete, Jr. Herr Hitler plays with dynamite, As Europe seethes and boils. Though the Continent is ruled by fright, Its rebellious water roils. Here a German major’s shot, There a traitor’s killed. Every Nazi’s on the spot; ° His world ‘with hate is filled. ‘They’ve mixed themselves a bitter broth, ‘They're like a grim, bewildered moth, That flies but does not think.

Perhaps the answer’s there. It seems there is a blot on Mars, That warns him to beware. Hostage blood, now flowing free, Headmen’s axes flashing,Driven by butchers on a spree, Will change on Germany’s thrashing. The conquered nation’s feel each blow— Appjarently are cowed; About their daily business go—— Are bloody but unbowed.’ Just now the fuse is being set, The dynamite is ready, The conquered folk will pay their debt. Bae Their nerve is calm and steady. What pandemonium then shall reign, ‘ : When Huns are beaten down. When liberty sings its refrain, And peace receives the crown! The state treasurv .

They hired him to do a bang-up job as representative, first of the U. S., and, second, of his district. Le As a_ Republican, Englebright is opposed by R. R Henderson, a lumberman of ‘Lone Pine, Inyo County. There is evidence thet he mnronases to run as an indenendent Renub'lican. Henderson says he is one hundred per cent for fullout war effort, more business ‘sense in Washington, and more economy everywhere. He is ‘one hundred per cent against ifor congressmen, and dodging issues, Republican and Demo. principles. It is quite possible _nomination. . This is not a year for poli ticcl cherarigane. We are all fe? un with politics es usual lard we thirk that party lines will be. not drawn clo3selv. We have the ereatest wer in his‘tory to win. After that our rev” resentatives in Congress must orvarize a peace system. and, this time, make it stick. This is no time for small, niggling politics and baby kissing; no time for bacon bringers. Incidentally, for many years now we have paid too high a price for bacon. We must break the greasy bacon shackles and get rid of bacon bringers before the U.S. is bankrupt. We need men in congress who will stand up ard be counted on issues vital to the four free-' War Bond campaign. U. S. Treasury Dept. 16—28050-2 eeriica itt Se WSS 4914 . THINKING OUT LOUD doms, rather ._ than salesmen trading bacon. On the Democratic side is Frank Finnegan, who, we believe would like to be an indenendent Democrat. but does not care to risk the displeasure of the Olson controlled state democratic committee. As matiters stand today we think his chance of gaining the Democratic nomination in August is extremely good. All four candidates are trying for it and we_expect Finnegan will win it. He is the first Democratic candidate of outstanding character and ability who has raised his head in these mountains in many a year. And, ah yes, there is a lady in the race. A Democratic lady who has thrown her bonnet into the ring. She is Mrs. Clark of Sutter Creek, Amador County, There is a feminine vacancy in the House of Representatives caused by the discreet refusal of Miss Jean Ran(kin to run again. A man will take her place. Mrs. Clark proposes to take Harry Englebright’s seat in the California delegation. Well, in this case, . woman proposes, but the voter disposes. We doubt if there. is anything in the record of women in Congress that would warrant the electorate giving Mrs. . Clark more than a kind look. We need a he-man in Congress to represent a district of . tall mountains 500 miles long. We need an independent man,
one who does not take _program from his party, who does his own thinking and voting and, most important, one who can see over the Sierras into a sick world that looks for courage and leadership to the greatest and most powerful democracy of all time: That is the kind of Congressmen we need and need desperately. 245 Youths Registered On Fifth R-Day 2 ‘Clerk Merle Morrison of the Nevada County Selective Service Board announced today 245 youths between the ges of 18 and 20 registered in Nevada County on the fifth R Day. This was about 150 short of what . had been expected by the Selective . service board. Nevada City had a registration of 66 and Grass Valley 127. Two registered at Indian Springs, one at North San Juan, four in Washington, 34 in Truckee, two in Chicago Park. three in North Bloomfield and six at Soda Springs. Otherwise we descend to the low brute level of our enemies, and will have lost the war in fact if not in name. PROFESSIONAL DIRECTORY DENTISTS DR. JOHN R.
