OKAy! NEVER-TAKE
Too Much Money.
From the El Paso Herald-Post:
Texas spent $144,770,000 in the last fiscal
year, the largest amount in history.
That’s too blamed much. It was so much
that although the fiscal year ended Aug. 31
the comptroller has just now been able to
add it up.
The general fund's deficit is now $17,000,-
000, biggest in history.
That’s also too blamed much.
It’s about time to clean house at Austin
and elect some men who have a little respect
for the people’s money.
From the Wichita Falls Times:
The most unpleasant aspect of the SEC
ultimatum to Wall street to mend its ways
is that Wall street asked for it. When it be-
came apparent not long ago that the admin-
istration at Washington had adopted a more
lenient attitude toward business in general,
Wall street promptly decided that it was not
required to behave. Noting that teacher was
not as hard-boiled as she had been, the pu-
pils felt free to throw paper wads, put pen-
cil rubbers on the stove, and to become dis-
orderly in other ways. They thought that all
discipline had been lifted. It became neces-
sary for teacher to reassert herself.
There is a considerable element in Wall
street which believes that trading in stocks
should be unregulated and unhampered, and
which uses every opportunity to make it
plain that it will make things as difficult as
possible for the administration. So long as
that spirit prevails, the SEC must choose
between backing down and enforcing the
rules to the letter. It has adopted the latter
course. It is unfortunate in many respects
that such a situation should arise at this
particular time, but if Wall street rejects
self-discipline, government discipline is the
only alternative.

Fraternal disagreements which began

V composed and three branches of the Metho-
dist church come together again to form
one of the greatest Protestant bodies in the
world.
: Already the Methodist Episcopal (the
Northern branch) and the Methodist
Protestant bodies have voted overwhelming-
ly to unite with the Southern Methodist
church. The Methodist Episcopal Church.
South, has practically completed the bailor
ing in its several conferences to decide the
matter of unification with the other two
bodies. The vote to date is: For unification,
7,577; against, 1,247. Only the Cuban and
China conferences are yet to vote on the
question, so unification is already assured.
A disagreement over the place of laymen
in the church led to establishment of the
Methodist Protestant church in 1828. The
new church insisted laymen should have a
greater share in the church councils. As in
other Protestant bodies, the slavery question
led to the establishment of the Methodist .
Episcopal church. South. That was in 1844,
when the general conference authorized a
division. Formal organization of the South-
ern branch took place the following year.
Now the three bodies are about' to be '
reunited. The old quarrels are forgotten or
forgiven, and a reunited Methodism stands

The Community Chest Plan.
Houston has finished its community chest
appeal for 4685,000 to carry on the city’s
charitable work. The quota was oversub-
scribed by $44,000, and it is small wonder
the Houston Chronicle rejoices. Thirty-one
agencies shared.
Kansas City is nearing the end of its
drive for more than a million for its com-
munity chest, with only $30,000 to go. Many
other communities report similar success.
For years we have believed that Abilene
should junk the existing system of every-
organization-for-itself and adopt the com-
munity chest plan. The old system is waste-
ful and ineffectual. It results in sending
group after group of committee workers to
individuals and firms to solicit aid and sup-
port. That takes up the time of th workers
and causes the contributors a loss of time
and a great deal of annoyance.
Petty jealousies should be laid aside and
all organizations get together to get this
necessary fund-raising out of the way in one
short campaign. The business men of the
town can effect this reform simply by
standing pat and insisting that it be done.
It may not work so well for a year or two
but eventually it will come to be accepted
by all agencies, as it is now in hundreds of
communities throughout the country. Hous-
ton has had the single-shot system for fif-
teen years and this year’s campaign was the
most successful on record. Everybody is sat-
isfied and the business men, instead of being
warted and worried every few days, made
their contributions in a lump sum and got
the business out of the way.
Plans should be put under way now to
adopt the community chest plan for Abilene
next year.
The Delay of Tax Revision.
It seems quite obvious that the adminis-
tration and its leaders in congress are hold-
ing back on tax revision. For a time it
looked as though something would be done
about it at the special session, but now there
is ample evidence that the administration
means to take its time.
Administration leaders in both houses
have thrown cold water on the suggestion
that immediate steps be taken to revise tax-
ation. It was said Saturday that although
agreement could be reached by nightfall on
the main provisions, it would require three
or Tour weeks to enact the new schedule.
Marjority Leader Barkley said in the senate
that “the question will take a lot of study.”
President Roosevelt in his weekly press con-
ference said that the matter would not be
rushed through, as that would give grounds
for new editorials to the effect that much
legislation waa half-baked.
There is some justification for the plaint
of administration critics to the effect that
new tax legislation goes through on greased
skids, whereas repeal or revision of taxation
is a slow and laborious process.
Need for revising the present set up, par- 1
ticularly the undistributed profits and the I
capital gains schedules, is generally admit- J
ted by all; but delay and evasion seems th J
be the present policy of the administration.
The reason probably is that the admihistra- I
tion hopes to play a little politics with busi-
ness, exchanging tax revision for coopera-
tion of business in such matters as housing
and power developments.
Meantime, business can only wait—and
like it
