What a pity that tragedy must mar this month,. that death and injury must come to many on California’s overcrowded highways: Unless this June is different from those of the past several years, there will be 2,500 serious accidents. Two hundred and thirty persons will be killed. Of these, 177 will be men, 53 women. The lives of ten children less than nine years old will be snuffed out. Every twelfth crash will be fatal. Every seventeenth auto that piles up will cause death. Of the trucks, more lethal, every eighth that crashes will crash fatally. ’ They tell us that such wanton waste of lives will happen before this month is out, just as surely as the moon; goes around the earth. Instinctively men will rebel at the thought. Let us hope so. For rebellion transferred into extreme caution on the crowded highways of June could prove the soothsayers wrong.

Riley first proposed the tax, and it has been pushed by large movie producers and others led by Byron Hanna, Los Angeles attorney. f all the plan’s intricacies, little is yet understood, but surely it would be one’ of the most sweeping taxation changes California ever attempted. At least it should have careful outlining, study, and legislative consideration, rather than being thrown at the voters now for a snap “‘yes”’ or “‘no’’ vote. We've had plenty of taxation troubles in California. It would scarcely seem wise to invite invite more through “‘taxation without deliberation.” Without Deliberation . It was taxation without representation that the American colonies rebelled against originally. Today California is in a mood to’rebe! against suggested taxation without deliberation. Everybody has a tax plan, some sure-fire scheme to wipe out the state’s deficit in jig time and lift the tax burden from all t= neonle simultareously, as if by magic. And ‘everyone, it seems, wouid like to get his scheme on the ballot for November. Now there may be germs of sound ideas in. many of these, but it will take a lot of deliberation, a lot of expert probing to incorporate any of them into any sane revision of the state's tax structure. : This gross transactions tax you have heard about, for example, which would tax a product every time it changed hands, all the way from farm through factory, wholesaler and retailer, to the public.
