Summary, etc. | From the mouths of Biblical babes have often fallen drops of truth, but last Thursday, truth and wisdom besides fell from the tongue of a fairly matured Rotarian. "Dalup" Dalupan besides steering the helm of one of our ranking universities, apparently has found the time to study one of the nation's biggest problems today. At a crisis when the executive branch of the government has labelled as "vital and imperative" its demands of Congress for higher and more taxation, veteran-auditor Dalup stepped forward to crystallize the pros and cons, the whys and therefores, the busts and whens of a problem that touches intimately every single human life in this growing republic. Boldly he stressed that the immediate solution of the financial straits that bind our government today does not lie in a haphazard, ruthless and pos-sibly inconsiderate jacking of taxes, but in a wise, gradual and scientific head-long grapple with the problem. That this grapple must take into consideration the total aggregate wealth of the country, all the possible sources of revenue, and the amount and quality of service rendered in exchange. He said that when a people pays its taxes without receiving a commensurate amount of public service, when the system of tax collection is so faulty that it strains the poor and smooths over the rich, when life and property is not safely guarded, and when people, nursed in poverty, constantly hear of the extravagances of its government, taxation becomes not only a problem but a dangerous nucleus for dangerous isms. Everyone present appreciated the timeliness, the courage and the prudence advanced by our own Dalup. |
