West Plans Action j The announced intention of western leaders to formu- : late plans looking towards joint action on reclamation prob- ; lems peculiar to this region, at the coming conference of western governors, is a wise move. With the able assistance oi ur. Hiiwooa xi. iueaa, director oi ine uureau oi reciama-tion, reciama-tion, real progress should be made. Eastern interests arekfiown to be lukewarm, if not openly hostile towards federal development -,f western reclamation recla-mation projects. The vonly possible chance of securing recognition at Washington for this vital phase of western developments through joint action such as is contemplated by the conference at Salt Lake. The addition of the silver problem to the order of business busi-ness along with reclamation and the long and short haul clause, will insure united action as far as the west is concerned con-cerned on three of the most vital questions confronting the ye3tern empire. Find the Tax Evader The great trouble with any sales tax is that it is passed down and dwn until eventually it strikes the very taxpayer who should be given relief. It is an ultimate consumer tax. We have a national sales tax now on p small scale. It is called a luxury tax, but is misnamed. The result has been that companies have absorbed this tax. It has been paid by those who should have their taxes reduced. A levy was placed on electric current used. The amount of this levy now appears on the monthly bills of the consumer. con-sumer. It is the same with other commodities. Industries and utilities that are still making the 1928 "fair return" on their investments should be paying this additional taxation, not the man who even now is scurrying scurry-ing around to find money to save his home. There are dozens of sources of revenue which should be tapped by our governmental agencies before increasing the load of the overburdened citizen. Those persons who are busy thinking up new taxes should take a few days off and go hunting for tax evaders who can afford to pay and who Bhould be bearing their share of the responsibility. The Golden Age Number Six Developments in aviation apparently have been rapid. Actually, they have been slowed down by the depression so much that the actual business of airplane flying and building is far behind the accomplishments of science and oncrtnoorinor " fre autogyro type plane, with its almost spotless record, gives promise of decreasing the risks in aviation to the vanishing van-ishing point. Another promising development with safety as its goal is the designing of a passenger plane with a detachable de-tachable cabin that can be cut loose in an emergency and slowly be lowered to earth by a big parachute. Huge, ship-like planes represent another almost untried field. Our readers will remember that the DO-X, the hun-dxed'-passenger German flying boat, proved her reliability of design and air stability in a flight across the Atlantic, altho faulty motors caused many long delays in the course of-the trip. Aviation has beeu held back by our economic pamc. It vre emerge from our present state going forward instead of backward many of our idle hands and idle factories will Wbusy giving wings to mankind.

The only aim in life this person seems to have is to cut wages and wh'an ordered to raise them by his superior forgets for one week so we cannot hit the sheep that is, the ones who listen to his yapping too much at a time.
