LOWER TAXATION MEANSJACRIFICES

Some Gratuities
There Is. highly lmix>rtnnt truth in the remark made by the ^x>n Angeles Times that "whon tho puhlU- goes to Wpshlngton it ia usually for the purpose of urging an appropriation of some kind, never to demand retrenchment The people of the eountry want re¬ trenchment In orclfer tliat there may be a reduction of i«xi's, and there certain¬ ly oannot|l»e a reduction of taxes until expendifMres have b<vii reduced. The "Times" Is largely right in ILs conclu¬ sion that "the people themselves are to blame for governmental extrava¬ gance.
And jot there Is much that can properly be aaid in defen.se <>:' the ne- gk'et or ill-advi:;ed action >>i )iooi)lf who urge new or increa.'^eil oxpondi- tures from tho .^tional treasury. They do not take thi.s action of their own ac¬ cord, but usually uiion the inspiration of some one who has a soliish interest to promote or who is imbued with the idea tli.it the best and the only way to get a thing done is to ask the gov ernment to do it. Following tho lines of least resistance, "let Uncle Sam do it" becomes the formula.
At almost every im|)ortant public gathering where rci)resentative.s of gov¬ ernment bureau* deliver addre.sses, the tone of the tipeechcs is auch as to In¬ duce the audlorice to urge Increased appropriations for the iKirticular work with which the spokesman is connected. This does not necessarily mean that thc government agent is urging in-

We cannot rea.sonably hope to have expenditur<A cut by lopping off tho servlm; other people want while having our ovfy^ retained. If we .iro to hnve effeetive reddJ'tlon of taxes, we must all get iK'hind the retrenchment pro¬ gram and urge Congress and the ad¬ ministration to slash expenditures nnd then uphold them in doing it.
