THE DANBURY REPORTER
Gas Tax
Menace Opposed
The year 1929 will go down
in history as a period wherein
legislators boosted the gaso
line tax to a point where the
press, thinking public officials,
the oil industry and the people
combined to litfht this newest
of tax problems.
Last year 27 states had taxes
'of three cents a gallon or less.
| Now 20 states impose levies of
] four cents or more, one state
i has a tax of six cents, and leg
islators in still other states are
casting longing eyes at further
increases as a means of provid
ing public funds with the least
effort.
In some states it is said thai
gas taxes have actually depriv
ed the states of revenue. In
Pennsylvania, for example,
which has a four-cent tax. one-
I third of motor owners live near
state borders and make a prac
tice -of driving to localities
where the tax is lower. Esti
mates place the loss to Penn
sylvania at $1,.>10.000 yearly.
N'o one objects to a fair ga-s
-oline tax when all the reveiui*
is employed for road buihliny
ai.d maintenance. What is ob
jected to is a tax out of propor
tion to the cost of gasoline oi
one which is used for purposes
other than road work.

Thirteen Billions
For Crime

Crime, according to Wad
; Ellis, of the American Bar As
sociat ion's Crime Commission
, costs the United States $l3,
000,000,000 a year.
We have 12,000 murders an
nually, 50 times the numbe
recorded in Great Britain
' (Since 1900 our murder rate h:i
j increased 350 per cent,
t ! The causes of crime are man;
1 | and foremost among them Mr
, | Ellis places our multiplicity o
J ilaws which, by simple mathe
Imatica, has increased the tota

that the great majority of ou

* |What is needed is an activ.
public consciousness that wil
force a simplification anil re

Good Outlook Seen
For Hoff Price«
Raleigh, July 15.—Thougl
prices of l'at hogs have beer
a little above the average din
ing the last few months, th
outlook is for still better price.-
throughout the year.
"From reports which wt
have received from the Bureau
of Agricultural Economics at
Washington, it appears thai
there were over 47 million
pounds less pork in storage 01
June first of this year than oi
the sanv* date last year," say.-
\V. \V. Shay, swine extension
specialist at State ('ollege.
"Then t.»«>. the supply m Juno
first, this year, was over 52
million pounds less than on
May first of this year. During
May, the (>(> leading markets
reports f>. 1 per cem pork re
ceived than the average of tivv
years for the month. Local
slaughter was 1:5.!» per cent
less than May of one year ago
and the stoeker and feeder
shipments were nun h U'ss thau
the average of live years."
Mr. Shay finds also that t'n
sprir.g } iig crop was about 8p "
eent below that of 1!>28. in ti'-
Colli IJelt. tile decrease w'as 
per cent, but greater than thi
in all other sections. This de
crease of 8 per cent is equival
ent to about 1."00,)()() pig
which means that we have the
smallest pig crop since 1925.
For these reasons, Mr. Shay
believes that the hog grower
of North Carolina is in a fav
orable position. He says that
the hog is still a "Mortgage
Lifter" in the hands of syste
matic feeders who adjust tht
• number of hogs they raise tj
i the amount of corn in prospect
; as a feed for them. One coun
. ty this year has sold over $lOO,
'OOO worth of fat hogs to east
: ern markets and this money
'coming at a time when general
crops were being planted has
been of incalculable benefit.
i
i The Shay method calls for
the breeding and feeding of
hogs so that they may be ready
for the markets of April and
September. If this plan is fol
lowed faithfully, Mr. Shay be
lieves that good profits wiH be
, made from the enterprise.
"Rugged Individual
ism" Grows
Of all the electric utility
; power generated in 1026 in this
• country, hut 1 1- i per cent was
produced in municipal plants.
And if the Hetch-Hetch.v plan*
iof the city of San Francisco i-;
I excluded, the proportion was
but 3 1-2 per cent.
The number of municipal en
terprises, as well, ha* steadily
{declined. In 1922. there were
12.581 such systems, serving
12,250 communities.
The trend of the American
people away from sooiaHsm
! has been one of the most impor
i tant developments of recent
| years. The election of a presi
'dent who stands for "rugged
j individualism" shows where
the wind blows.
The American public has
learned that political in-omises
