Down in the County of Peel the , farmers are or^anixing themselves into a Protective Association in order to protect themselves from the wolves who are preying on the vit- 1 als of this country by levying' taxes and squandering- money t*> such a decree that it is almost impossible to exist and do business in this country. It is somewhat of a para- dox that we should have to form 'associations to protect ourselve from the members whom we senil to parliament U> represent us, but that is exactly what it narrow.* down to. Kvery scheme imagin- able has been resorted to, short ot actual confiscation, to force taxes out of the people, and the orfjy of expenditure has not decreased, but rather it has increased. An editorial writer in a well known United Suites publication points out that when taxes are once levied they are rarely withdrawn. A lar^e sum of money results and it is easier to find new methods of | spending than it is to cur- tail the activities of any depart- ment, and as a consequence the burden keeps on growing like a rolling snowball. We do not think, however, that Protective Associations are the sol- ution of this problem. Members ol the offending- government are the ones to be approached. An election is imminent in Ont- ario, and every candidate who seeks the people's suffrage should be obli- ged to make a clear cut pronounce- ment oil hi.s attitude on thisquestion. These are the men to look to tor relief aud only they. When those can be made tu understand that the people of Canada demand extensive reforms in public expenditure .we will get relief. When they are act ually forced to give it they vill do so, but not before. It is up to us> to get after the me*, who want to do our business at Ottawa and Tor- onto. They can be made to grant relief if notion is g-one about in the t ight way, and it is time to get at it. Our I'.F.O, clubs and every kind of social organi/ation should get busy without any thought of 'iihanassiug a government which has not taken into consideration the unbearably emrariassing- condition which tanners and otheisare now laboring under. Hut we are not alone in this "orgy of taxation." The I'niicd States is even worse oil than We are. Dealing with the question the Saturday Kvening Post says ; " All taxes, hy a heretofore immutable law. tend to stick and to increase, once they h;i\e been imposed. A legislative 5oJy that refines to consider retrench- ment and economy when confronted wi:h a financial emergenty will hardly repeal any tax that enables it to con- tin -ic in the slothful and pleasant ways of free spending. In California, so we hear, a union of taxpayers hag been formed to ride herd on the gentlemen who trim down out incomes so freely and who spcnj tax money so generously. This union sh< uld spread and roll up a huge mem- bei ship in every state, for that would mean that citizens are at last beginning to lake an interest in their government. Taxation and government are almost interchangeable terms. Sooner or later, almost every bill, every measure, every proposal before us entails taxation] How money is raised arid how spent goes right to the roots of government Yet we have only the haziest ideas on the subject, because if we do not pay income or real-estate taxes we have silly notion that we arc getting off scot, free. Yet the deadliest taxes are the hidden ores that deftly trim farmer, laborer and salaried man. Again, after the money has been raised we show small concern about how it is spent. Yet the evidence that comes through the infrequent public invest igations of some particularly glaring waste should cause shivers of misgiving to run up and down the tax paying pine." SIGNS OF SANITY The Farmers' Sun says : " Pre mier Dairy's recent declaration before the Good Roads Association that the time has come for a cur- tailment of road expenditure is reassuring evidence that here in Ontario at least sober counsel is prevailing in regard to highway building." The breaks are evidently to be applied with a last minute view to preventing Schaulfetir Briggs from ditching the muchin.'. Conditions are steadily improving in the cities and the numbers of un. emnloved still decreases. o |0 The 1 923 Chevrolet is Even Better Than Before TN 1922 CHEVROLET astonished the world by producing a * car of remarkable quality at an extremely low price.
