Today the editors of the local newspapers do the most for the least money of any people on earth.” Don’t Tax Gold (Contributed) It is currently reported that Governor Merriam’s admin: istration is urging a severance tax on all: natural resources including gold, as the solution of the state deficit which ha: to be met at the special session of the legislatrue in January Friends of gold mining in this state should make their voices heard now in opposition to what-amounts to a gross produc. tion tax on the output of California's gold mines.

When the value which the mineral producer has added to the surface value of the land by the, expenditure of his time, money, and enterprise, has been dissipated through the exhaustion of the mineral deposit; then indeed the land returns to its former value as non-mineral: land. But the government has not. suffered. It has received the proper taxes on the added value so long as that value existed. . That value existed only because of the possibility of extrac-j tion of the minerals in question: If the minerals were in the} land and incapable of being extracted, they would add no . value to it. Whythen should the mineral producer be singled out . for discriminatory taxation? If the state’s deficit must be met. it should not be met by discriminatory taxes, penalizing those ' in which the production of natural ' t tne i ' i \ { } \ 1 { } communities of the state resources is the principal industry. A tax program should be; adopted ‘which distributes the burden equitably among all. . Paticularly unfair is the proposal to include gold in the category of taxable minerals, because, while the gold miner adds to the wealth of the state and takes nothing from it, he cannot pass along to his sole customer, the United States Government, in the form of an addition to the price of gold, taxes which are levied on his output. Engaged in one of the most hazardous of all industrial enterprises from the standpoint of probability of return, the gold miner must resent the proposal Lent.
