McLKAN POINTS WAY
TO TAX REDUCTION
(Continued from Front Page)
«MMul PMtarding wholesome and
BMHMfy prujrfu. One of the
matt practical waye of reducing
i MM aggregate amount of taxes and
■MM the amount paid by each tax
payer la to practice aound econ
omy In the adminiatration of gov
ernment, both In State and looal
affair*.
The real baaia of aucceM In pri
vate buaineea it to live within
one'a Income and produce the
maximum of aervice at a mini
mum coat. The aarre prlnciplea
ean be and muet be applied to tha
business of government, if we are
to reduce materially the burden
of taxation.
STRENGTHEN BUDGET
BYSTEM.
The Budget Syetcm i« one of
the beat method* yet devlaed to
oontrol and reduce the expenses
of government. I believe auch a
eystem anould be adopted la
every branch of government.
Tl.c Budget Commission recenb
ly established by the Legislature
was a step In the right direction.
v I believe It ahould be given in
creased powers, so that it could
(a) constantly supervise our fle
oal operations in respect to both
revenues and expenditures: (b)
•waken a spirit of economy and
efficiency in the public service;
(e) scrutinize and aubjest to the
eat of necessity and public welfare
all Items of expenditures; (d)
eliminate duplication of effort
* and outlay; (f) aupervlse the
methods of accounting in the de
partments; (g) prepare and sub
mit to the Legislature a budget
of estimated expenditures and
receipts, so that current operat
ing wpenaei shall at no time ex
ceed current income.
The app'ication t D the affairs of
government of the eame principiea
and methods which the prudert
man practices in the management
of his own affairs will reduce the
aggregate of expenditures and to
that extent will reduce the volume
of taxation. This ia one of the
surest ways of reducing taxes
without mterferring with the pro
gressive development of the State,
which our people have so much at
heart. If I am elected Governor
I shall use my experience and
best efforts to achieve this result.
EQUITABLE FREIGHT RATES.
4. Our State ahould have tha
benefit of fair, juat and equitable
freight ratea and any diacrimina
tion agalnat our people in thia
respect must be removed, at any
eost.
LAW ENFORCEMENT
5. Strict enforcement of the
law Is an imperative duty at the
present time. The growing ten
dency to disregard our Conotitu
tion and our laws creates e serious
menace to the stability of our gov
- emment. The law mutt be held
sacred .because ours is a govern
ment of law where the sovereign
power resides in the people who
speak through the law alone Any
failure to obey the law, therefore, I
tends to bring Into disrepute and
destroy that sovereignty.
JUDICIAL SYSTEM
f. Our judicial eystem ahoultf
be reformed so that the trail of I
both civil and criminal casee may
be simplified, expedited and made
less expensive.
SYMPATHETIC TO LABOR.
7. I thoroughly approve of the
just attitude of the Oemocretia
party towards labor, including the
recognition of the right to organ- J
las Industry is aesentlal to tho
strength and prosperity of the
State, and it shoul/t be our con
stant purpose stimulate a
wholesome respect for and recog- I
nltion of the rights snd welfare of
both labor and capital
CONTINUE ROAD PROGRAM
8 The great worV of internal
Improvement, including the High- j
way system, educational institu
tions, the institutions for the treat
ment of the afflicted and our other
general welfare actlvitiee ahould
continue to and pro
moted. aa the public Interest may
from time to time require,
t expect to stale my position In re
■perl to other matters uud to elabor
ata upon those that I ha»e hers men-;
tloned. dur'ng tbe lanipatgn
I shall endeavor to condut t the cam-1

the confidence and respect of the p#o- j
pie and it will be my constant effort
to put the welfare of the State and I
