As this is being written, indica tions are that Warren County schools will open on Tuesday with regis tration of pupils and the first regu lar school day on Wednesday, one day later than had been anticipated. In spite of strains and stress brought about by court rulings for bidding the opening of two schools and many changes in other schools, "it is to be sincerely hoped that our people will adjust to the change in the realization that the educa tion of all of our children must be the prime consideration, and that while adjustment will not be easy and in many cases not plea sant, the character of a people is shown when the chips are down.

The tobacco market opens on an optimistic note with a good to bacco crop, and good prices indicat ed. The opening of the tobacco market is always a happy time for Warrenton, not only because it means an increased tempo to busi ness, but because it is extremely nice to have so many-farmers in dicating that Warrenton is their marketing town as well as their buying town. Warrenton is a coun try town and it welcomes country people. This week marks the publica? tion of another harvest edition of this newspaper, and we are unwilling to let the occasion pass without extending our sincere thanks to the business people for making it a success, and to so many persons who have contributed to making it a good edition. Waste In Military Spending Smithfield Herald When President Nixon made his welfare reform speech, he advocated a new fiscal policy that could have far-reaching effects in state and local government. The President proposed that the Federal Government share its tax revenue with states, counties and cities. In 1971 he would turn $1 billion of Federal tax collections over the states under a plan guaranteeing financial aid to hardpressed local governments as well as to state governments. This fiscal proposal not only emphasizes Mr. Nixon's belief that governmental administra tion and planning should be decentralized, but it also emphasized the roll of Federal Govern ment as the truly big tax collector in this coun try. Today's tax bite causes a lot of squawking. There is outcry when the Stale raises the gasoline tax. There is moaning when towns, counties, and districts raise taxes on property. The squawks, the cries, the moans are quite understandable. Taxes at state and local levels of government really do pinch. They pinch mainly because they are supplementary to the greatest pincher of all?the Federal income tax. To mention the Federal Income tax in cites squawking about the high cost of Fed eral spending on welfare and a wide assort ment of what is sneeringly referred to as "do-good programs." But the main reason the Federal income tax pinches as hard as it does is Federal military spending, especial ly the spending Just now on the war In Vietnam. Indeed, the main reason for the severity of today's tax bite generally is military spending. The extra gasoline tax is irritating. But we can give ourselves relief by reducing our automobile travel. The higher county and town property taxes disturb us. And we can not do much to hold them back, for they go to pay for es sential and worthy services. In times of Inflation, governments as well as private businesses are compelled to raise prices until acceptable new sources of revenue can be found. Logically, there should be a concentration of squawks, cries, and moans against the prin cipal tax pincher?military spending. Con gressional Investigations lately have revealed great waste in military spending, and for the first time since World War n the Pentagon does not automatically have its monetary requests granted by Congress. This Is en couraging. But the greatest relief from enor mous military spending won't come until the United States can work its way out of the war In Vietnam and resolve to stay clear of future Vietnam s. A billion dollars a year diverted from Fed eral tax revenue to state and local govern ment treasuries will be welcomed by tax payers Irritated by the recent raises in gaso line and property levies. State and local gov ernments could share the Federal col lections to a greater extent than President Nixon proposes if military spending can be brought down to a reasonable level.
