ANDERSON..... seveeseevesececeaee-P Ublishers Published semi-weekly, Monday and Friday, at Nevada City, California, and entered as mail matter of the second class in the postoffice at Nevada City, under Act of Congress, March 3, 1879. SUBCRIPTION RATES One year, <4 —s THE SALES TAX Repeal the sales tax? It may sound attractive, but what have its adovates to offer as a substitute, inquire many California editors. : Would they plunge the state into hopeless insolvency, close the schools for lack of funds, return the burden to real estate, or adopt a combination income and transaction tax? Tax burdens should be equalized, said the Pasadena StarNews, with the spread made as thin as possible to prevent any group from being taxed excessively, adding: ‘‘In accomplishing this, it is to be expected that there will be writhing and grumbling and criticizing and opposing among those who have beén exempt from bearing their fair share of the tax burden Those who have the gdod of the state at heart will go forwarc with this equalization process, regardless of all the criticism and opposition of those who heretofore have been shirkers in the matter of being taxed.” “Although petitions are being circulated for a referendum on the sales tax,’ comments the Marysville Appeal-Democrat, “all who are concerned for the orderly and safe transaction of the state’s business will hope that the movement fails. No one who is opposed to the sales tax has yet advanced a substitute that will keep California out of almost hopeless insolvency. To kill the sales tax now would be to pile up a gigantic deficit from which we coud not extricate ourselves for years and then probably only through a levy upon real property. * ‘We spurned the tax on real estate when we voted for the Riley plan,’ remarks the San Diego Sun. “And the action mwas logical to many, although the Sun pointed out the weaknesses of the plan and predicted the situation that now confronts us. The burden on real estate is even yet too oppressive. As for the other alternative it includes a form of sales tax and an income tax, hence it would be even worse than the sales tax.” : The Béverly Hills Citizen believes that “while the sales tax is an interruption in the smooth conduct of business and to many comes as a hardship even in the small amounts subtracted from the purse of the individual, the state cannot afford to go into bankruptcy and must take care of its obligations. If it, like the individual, spent too much in the spending days there is no way out of it than to pay the piper.” “It is fairly reasonable to assume that the issuance of tokens valued at one-eighth of a cent, to’be used in collection of the sales tax by business houses is not going to popularize that measure,” in the opinion of th eSalinas Index-Journal. “The people as a whole have not taken kindly to paying an extra €ent or two on small purchases, and when they are told they will have to carry tokens around with them to provide for the tax on sales amounting to five and ten cents, there is bound to be increased dissatisfaction.” “We suggest,” Concludes the ValleyoTimes-Herald, ‘that those sponsoring the referendum on the sales tax be reasonable enough and fair enough to propose a substitute. The fact that they have not done so shows the weakness of their cause. X X X We are not championing the sales tax because we like it—but because the citizens of the state of California sre at the bottom of a deep financial pit and it seerns to be the most satisfactory ladder to use.”’ Keystone Meat Market Paes 67 Our Desire to please You OUR SPECIALTIES Small Rib Steak, Tender and Juicy; fine Ten. derloin and Sirloin Cuts; Roasts of all kinds; Weinies KEYSTONE MARKET CALANAN & RICHARDS OH BOY?MAYBE THERE’LE BE’ ENOUGH LEFT OVER l FoR A SODA oS ET TS).

But: the thing I started to tell you is that when we were out on the beach hunting arrow heads with her, she would say: ‘‘Come to me little Indian maid who walks with me,’ and before the hunt was over this old lady would find at least one arrowhead.
