Herald-Journa- NEED REVAMPING OF TAX SYSTEM Kogan, Utah Taxpayers of Cache County, Gentlemen: If there was ever a time In the history of our state and country when we were due for a drastic revamping of our complete tax system, that time is now upon us. The tax situation in Chicago is not peculiar to that section but is as general as January and plenty serious. The property owner is taxed beyond the breaking point (and plenty have broken). If he improves his property ever so little his taxes rise while his neighbor who rents and has a far greater income or salary but owns no property, goes scott free of taxes What is fair about it? Why should a man be taxed for improvements which are for the general good of all? What is Uncle Sam? For whom does he exist? Who should support him or contribute to his stability? Is it not the responsibility of every good, self respecting American citizen. If U. S. is not worthy of my support, financial and otherwise, let him be worked over until he is worthy of the support of every man who draws his sustenance from his bounteous resources and then see to it that that support is rendered through a reasonable reachable, and fair system of distribution of the tax levey. Not heap the burden on the poor. Why not place a tax of say ten dollars, or even five dollars on the head of every man. Isn't the U. S. worth that much to you and me? Then place the income of the single man and the income tax at list at $1,000 and that of the married man or main support of the family at $2,000. Exempt all residential improvements from taxation. Place the income tax on a sliding scale so plain that all may read and understand; reach all forms of taxable wealth and then make the tax machinery so perfect that unscrupulous, unpatriotic, selfish tax evaders and attorneys of the same stamp can find no loop holes. Such a tax Little Theater presents The Weber Club in EM "This lone man would sit In a high tower and just push buttons and his robots and machines would do all the work and because this lone man would be a great agricultural sciversed in knowledge of entist soil and chemistry and botany and weather control. he would reap harvests "Sounds fine doesn't it?' yet I cannot help but wonder who the heck is going to buy all these bumper crops . . . evader often pays such an attorney a fee greater than his tax would be just for the sake of beating the law. If every man, company and corporation assume his or its lust share of citizen responsibility even though it may cost some pains and the U. S. will have ample revenue with which to carry on efficiently and his citizenry will it out one lone man have a live interest in his exist- on Figure a 25,000 acres -- and every ence and the Chicago eltuation rural population of next to nothwill be a thing of the past. ing C.

Right at the present moment, Brigham Young university is riding In the favored spot on top of the heap but the Cougars have some tough sledding before the season is over. I TEK COMING TO FORE RAPIDLY The University of Utah, if they play the way they played against the Aggies last Friday and Saturday, is ranking next in order as choice while Montana popular State and Utah Aggies are an even break as a dark horse choice. The Cougars will entertain Utah and Montana State in their own little chicken coop at Provo and then will finish the se ason with a little series with Utah Aggies at Logan. The Utes play Montana State and Utah Aggies at Salt Lake and the Cougars at Provo. ' The Montana State Bobcats first play hosts to Utah State at Bozeman, then wind up the season with series against B. Y. U. and Utah in the latter's home gymnasium. Finally, Utah Aggies travel to Bozeman and Salt Lake and conclude the season against B. Y. U. at Logan. Although the Aggies are reposing peacefully in. the cellar, don't count them entirely out of the picture yet. Take a look. They are only two games behind the league leading Cougars. That's the kind of a race that is on in the Rocky Mountain conference this year. Of course, if the Aggies cant get going any better than they did against Utah last weak, then they might as well fold up their suits and start serious preparations for tiddieywinks or sumpin'. However. Captain Sonny Alsop is expected to be back in a suit in time for the Bozeman excursion this weekend and if he is, then the Aggies should click better. RACE IS NOT OVER EVEN YET If the Farmers should win both games at Bozeman and the Utes and Cougars should split, as is the most likely prospect at the present time, then the Farmers would be only a game behind the leaders. No sir. the race is not over yet. Speaking of the Saturday night's game and which was won by Utah by a score of 45 to 30, the game was not so lopsided as it would appear. The Farmers, left behind in the first half, really started to work in the second canto and played Utah on an basis, all except putting the spheroid through the little iron ring. Big Everett Campbell lost at least ten points by the ball crawling all the way out of the basket after it had once settled in. Cropley also missed several setups. Alton Carlson of 285 North First West and Ezra Dunn of 265 North Third West street should be signed up by somebody immediately for something or other. They were prize prognosticators of series and consequently get two tickets each for the B. Y. U. series. Carison was one of two out of 140 who picked Utah to win on the opening night. His score was for Utah. Dunn picked the winning score on Saturday night with 45 for Utah although he was a little optimistic on the Aggies, his score there being 10. laid for twelve. One of the most successful affairs of the week was the entertainment in the tabernacle, sponsored by the Wellsville ward M. I. A. The entertainment consisted of three one-aplays. Dancing and musical numbers were also enjoyed. The Florist Shop" won first place. Other plays were: In Secret Places and Tooms."
