LEAGUE COMMENTS ON APPROPRIATION RILL Headquarters of The Farmers and' Taxpayers Lc^\ae commented as fol lows on the A/ppropriatioii Bill: "Will not some group in the Gener al Assembly stand up for the taxpay ers? One group with admirable per tinacity carries the torch of the pub lic schools; while another champions the public roads. Tho business of the State seems to be in the hands of a board of directors whose one aim is to pay out in wages all that comes in. Will not some resolute spirits break away from these various loyalties and champion the cause of the man who pays the bills? One group works for fisheries and another group must protect the game; but the strongest phalanx, with cru sader zeal, crashes through, waving school banners; the next strongest stands at. Armageddon battling for the public roads. But what group will put on the armor of the whole State, thinking not of the creatures of the State, but the State itself? Taken as a whole, our General As sembly is a body of excellent citizens, earnest, purposeful and resourceful; but it is all divided into cmaps of these several agencies. Some swear by Paul and some b yApollos; but few, stand supremely and constantly for the man who pays the taxes. Thosfe gentlemen nrc responsible for what thoy do, but it will be ex tremely difficult to explain to their constitutents why they forgot all a bout the man back home just as soon as the special pleaders began to talk here in Columbia. They know that our people and our industries are tax ridden, and they vote to extend pay ment, but offer no relief. All the clear reoslve of 1932 to help the tax payer has been transformed into a special solicitude for our institutions Tho appropriation bill, even as i( passed the House, is an absoluto re pudiation of the campaign promises of two years ago and must be explain ed to tho people this summer. Candidates promised a curb on ex penditures, elimination of some ser vices and, above all, reduction of taxes. As a matter of fact two new agencies have been established ? -bank control and state auditor's depart ment ? and the old multiplication of .overlapping services kooh merrily or.'*.
