UNITED STATES*SENATOR
******
It is now evident that our people
are becoming tax-conscious. This
usually happens when citizens gener
ally begin to ask whether they are
receiving full return for their tax
dollars. It is also an indication of
a widespread feeling that huge gov
ernmental expenditures, national,
[state and local, cannot, in the final
I analysis, make a permanent contri
bution to national stability.
As a result, a certain amount of
uncertainty exists, particularly in
business and industrial circles, that
will not be fully removed until
Federal policies are well-defined, un
til Federal expenditures are fixed,
and until some assurance is given
tax-burdened citizens with regard to
the taxes they will pay in the fu
ture.
No better evidence of this can be
found than the fact that "behind
the scenes," experts on taxation in
both the executive and legislative
.branches of the government are hard
pressed to suggest new sources of
revenue should Federal expendi
tures exceed budget estimates. Here
is also evidence that tax reservoirs
have been tapped almojt to the lim
it.
Several things stand out. First,
that in the scramble for revenue, all
agencies of government have adopt
ed the course of least resistance
and levied taxes that would bring
a minimum of protests; Second,
that whil e rates of taxation have
been steadily increased, there has
not been a corresponding increase
in tax receipts, and third, many
new taxes have been imposed which,
to say the least, are of extremely
doubtful merit.
About 150 years ago, a famous
writer on economics laid down four
principles to which taxation should
conform. They are as follows:
"People should be taxed as nearly
as possible in proportion to their
respective abilities, all taxes should
bo dofinite and not uncertain or ar
bitrary; they ought to be levied
at the time and in the manner which
causes the least inconvenience to
the people, and they should be so
contrived as to take oue of the
pockets of the people as little as
possible over what is needed by the
Public Treasury."
Instead, of following these sound
methods, taxes have been too often
levied on the principle of getting
the most money with the least
trouble.
In a report made to the House
Ways and Means Committee, which
is charged with initiating all reve
nue-raising legislation, appears this
pertinent paragraph:
"Large as the increase in our tax
es has been, nevertheless such in
crease has been insufficient to meet
the increase in expenditures, there
fore the majority of our governments
are increasing their public debt. It
seems proper to conclude that this
situation must be remedied at an
early date, if the financial stabil
ity of our government is to be pre
served."
Throughout the report in quostion,
is much comment with reference to
the need of reducing Federal ex
penditures as a sound approach to
the tax problem. In fact, the Pres
ident has placed the current situa
tion squarely before the Congress
and warned that expenditures beyond
budget estimates must be accompan
ied by new revenue. It is to be earn
estly hoped that new taxes can be
postponed until 1938 and tax revision
carried through on a sound and
equitable basis. This hope is shared
by leaders in Congress.
To My Mother
M is for the millions of things she
has done for me;
O means only that 9he is growing
old;
T is for the tears she has shed to
save me;
H is for her heart of purest gold;
E is for her eyes with love light
shining;
R is for right, and right shell al
ways be;
Put them all together, they spell
Mother, —
A word that means a world to me.

Raleigh Man Is

Raleigh April 28—Newspaper pub
lisher Johu A. Park, istlie active can
didate of - the Raleigh Rotary Club
for District Governor during the com
ing year, the election to be at Pine
hurst District Conference on may 10.
Mr. Park has had a prominent
part in Rotary affairs Bince the
State's first club was founded at Ra
leigh in 1914, serving as president
and in other capacities. Demands on
his services as song leader and speak
er on community relations have car
ried him into various fields. Known
as an able leader in civic, religious,
musical and educational affairs, he

sion of journalism. He has headed

thern Newspaper Publishers Asso
ciation. A graduate and former fa
culty member of State College,he has
served also as head of the General
Alumni Association of his Alma

ciated Press have carried him into
tropical lands and seas.. He has cov
ered most of Europe and also the

foundland to the Argentine Republic.
He completed last summer a total
score of 25,000 miles of air travel,
after an all-air tour of South America.
Mr. Park recently celebrated his
silver anniversary as head of The

Shrine of The Sun
For Will Rogers
Everlasting memorial being erected
for America's best-loved humorist
in the Colorado mountains
A little chapel is to bo a part
of the Will Rogers Shrine of the
Sun which is Hearing completion oil
a promontory of famous Cheyenne
mountain above Broadmoor Hotel,
jußt south of Colorado Springs, Col
orado. The Will Kogers chapel and
shrine will be everlasting as the
mountains and as steadfast us the
sun.
This beautiful silver shaft stands
out—like the man it honors. Its base
is embedded in the backbone of the
nation, on the front range of the
Roeky mountains. Its spire kisses the
Colorado sky. It is away from the
busy world; it is utmost part of
Crod's great mountains; it commands
meditation; it is dignified and pic
turesque, seemingly a link between
the earthly imprints of the famous
humorist, and his celestial home.
The granite tower, resembling a
feudal castle, was conceived and
entirely financed by Spencer Pen
rose, Colorado Springs pioneer and
friend of Rogers. It was designed
by Charles E. Thomas and built by
Milton J. Strong.
The spire is a genuine castle in
the air, reached by the "ladder
to-the-sky" Broadmoor - Cheyenne
highway which zigzags up the face
of the Cheyenne mountain. It con
tains only materials that will en
dure. There are no nails and no
wood in the construction. More than
5,000 cubic yards of light pink
granite was taken from a large sin
gle boulder near the memorial to
make the tower walls.
By night the shrine will be flood
lighted as a sparkling gem studded
against the velvet of night. From
the pinnacle will burn a sodium
light, with provision for it to shine
perpetually. There are four rooms
in tier inside the shrine, connected
by a spiral stairs leading to an ob
servation alcove on the top. At the
base of the 100-foot shaft will be
the Will Rogers chapel, open to all
mankind.
Another of the rooms will be the
Will Rogers Memorial room. To Da
vidson, American sculptor who was
a close friend of Rogers, is now
completing an oversize bust of Rog
ers, in his Paris studio for the me
morial room.
Randall Davy, noted Santa Fe
artist, is painting the history of
the West on the interior walls. The
frescoes are arragncd so that visi
tors may follow the history chrono
logically by ascending the stairs.
Davy will probably do the religious
paintings in the chapel before the
memorial is dedicated next summer.
Thousands have already visited the
shrine, under construction for 28
months.
May Queen Chosen
At Womans College
Greens, May 6.—Miss Linda

dents of the Woman's College were
invited to spend that day at
the college, attend classes with their
daughters if they liked in the morn
ing and witness the beautiful May

Play Ground
Our attention was called last Saturday, by neighbors, to
several small boys playing ball on the Lutheran Church
lawn, for they could find no other space on which they could
play. The good preacher out of the kindness of his heart
apparently did not drive them away, if he did see them.
We have called attention to this urgent need before and
we hope that the new administration will give serious
thought to the importance of acquiring some vacant land in
every ward in the City of Rocky Mount before this land is
built up and becomes costly. The City School Board has
recently had to condemn a* lot for SB,OOO or more on account
of there being a building on the lot. The lot could probably
have been acquired for one-fourth that amount. So, we are
urging upon the new administration the importance of ac
quiring land, before it is improved, for park purposes. We
do not need playground equipment. We need the ground
and the children will provide their own entertainment.

P.O. RECEIPTS
UP AND DOWN
While Rocky Mount was playing
j the carnival city during April, folks
here were so engrossed in entertain
ing at home that they simply quit
writing letters.
That's what one might gather from
the postal receipts here which in
April dropped to $6,138.03. The fig
ure is $417.17 less than for March and
$202.96 less than for April, 1936.
Total receipts for 1937 through
April were only $40.87 loss than for
the first four months of 1936, though.
This is a year of, ups and downs
—January receipts were higher than
last year, February's were lower,
March's were higher, and April's
lowor again.

KITTENS BREAK
UP CHURCH SERVICE
Faint feline fussing from the
floor_ brought abrupt benediction at
Baptist church services at Griffin,
Ga., Sunday night.
Failing to discover the source and
eliminate the cause of the "meows"
and squeaks, Dr. J. B. Turner ter
minated an evening service.
Then a search of every nook and
corner was started. At a spot where
the noise was loudest, churchmen
tore up floor boards.
Beneath they found a cat and
her litter of newborn kittens.
