Magazine Sees Boost
In State, Local Taxes
State and local governments
will be spending at least 50 per
cent more in 1970 than they did
in 1960, or more than 75 billion
dollars, and taxes to finance
the spending will grow propor
tionately, according to Changing
Times, the Kiplinger Magazine.
An article in the current issue
of the magazine reports that
state and local taxes have climb
ed over 10 per cent in the last
four years and over 40 per cent
since and “the end is no
where in sight.”
Although not all the money
for state and local spending
comes from local levies, the ar
ticle points out that more than
two-thirds of 1959’s 49 billion
dollar outlay was financed by
taxes. “Tax rate increases come
in waves,” the magazine notes.

“Because of political resistance,
communities tend to lag behind
in meeting their requirements.
Then as pressures build up to in
surmountable proportions, gov
ernments try to catch up all at
once.”
From all present signs, the
article adds, the next big tax
year should come around 1963
or 1964, in the following gen- !
eral patterns:
Taxes in big urban complexes
will go up quicker than in
[towns or rural regions, as people
keep migrating toward the cities.
Taxes in suburbs will go up
faster than in adjacent cities.
Though cities want to rebuild to
halt inner decay, they can raise
taxes only so much lest they
scare out even more people.
Tax rates in industrial states
will increase more rapidly than
in rural states, again reflecting
the population movement.
Taxes in big rural states will
go up more than in smaller ones.
Such states as Montana, Idaho
and Wyoming must tax a sparse
population to finance roads
across the wide-open saces.
As for the kinds of taxes
which will climb the most, the
editors of the magazine foresee •
increases in the following: Gen- ]
eral sales tax, personal income
tax; special sales taxes, with gas
taxes likely to increase the
most, liquor taxes the least;
property tax, local income '
taxes.
If the outlook seems bleak, the '
article concluded, look at the
brighter side: “You may have
to shell out more, but your
children will go to better
schools, you’ll drive on better
roads, you'll get better hospital
care. For taxes are the price of
progress.”

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
Mankind’s need for a spiritu
ally meaningful set of values
will be brought out at Christian
Science services this Sunday.
Keynoting the Lesson-Sermon
on “Soul” is the Golden Text
from Psalm 62: “My soul, wait
thou only upon God; for my ex
pectation is from him. He only
is my rock and my salvation.”
From “Science and Health
with Key to the Scriptures” by
Mary Baker Eddy this passage
will be read: “Mortals must
gravitate God-ward, their affec
tions and aims grow spiritual—
they must near the broader in
terpretations of being, and gain
some proper sense of the infin
ite —in order that sin and mor- j
tality may be put off.” (p. 265). |
A citation to be read from the:
Bible (Matt. 16) states: “Forj
what is a man profited, if he
shall gain the whole world, and
lose his own soul? or what shall
a man give in exchange for his
soul?”
Changes Announced
For Hatteras Ferry
Due to the reduction in the
number of daylight hours, the
State Highway Department has
announced a change in the early
morning and late afternoon ferry
trips across Hatteras Inlet.
From now until the regular
winter ferry schedule goes into
effect, the first trip will leave
Hatteras each morning at 5:00
A. M., instead of 4:00 A. M.,
and the last ferry leaving Hat
teras in the afternoon for Ocra
coke will have a departure time
of 5:00 P. M., instead of 6 P. M.
Leaving Ocracoke, the first trip
each morning will be at 6:00
A. M., instead of 5, and the last
afternoon trip leaves at 6:00
P. M., instead of 7.
The southern half of Hatteras
Inlet is without lighted naviga
tional aids, making it necessary
to change the early morning and
late afternoon departures.
Highway officials emphasized
that the State’s other ferries, op
erated across the Alligator Riv
er, Oregon Inlet and between
Atlantic and Ocracoke, will con
tinue to operate on their regu
lar summer schedules until fur
ther notice.
