CENTRALIZATION OF GOVERNMENT In a recent study made of the tax situation throughout the nation, it is noted with alarm that increasing centralization can be seen in the 30-year period from 1911 to 1941. In 1911, only 34 percent of the total tax collections went to the federal government. By 1940, this had increased to 38 percent. State tax collections in 1911 comprised 11 percent of the total and, in 1940, 25 percent. Local governments, i.e., cities, counties and school districts, however, have received a progressively smaller share; ranging from 65 per cent in 1911 to only 37 percent in 1940. Far out of line from the gradual trend were tax collections for 1920, the peak-year of federal spending for the World War. Apart from this year, however, the general trend shows that the federal and state governments have taken gradually increasing parts of the total and that local governments have received less and less. There have also been greatly increased total amounts received by each of these groups. The trend is accounted for, according to the study, largely by a gradual shift in governmental functions and the addition of other functions. For example, road building, once done largely by local governments, is today carried on by the federal and state governments. State-collected and locally shared taxes for schools, relief and other programs account for some shift of revenues from local governments to the states. Increasing centralization can be seen in the thirty-year trend as judged by tax collections, the process of centralization would appear to have been proceeding apace during the three decades. The most headway in this direction has been made by states in relations to local revenues. This is not surprising in view of the increasing tendency to share state-collected taxes with local units and to grant subventions from the state treasury for local functions. Christian Science Church “Take heed, brethren, lest they be in any of you an evil heart unbelief, in departing from living God. But exhort one another daily, while it is called To do These words of Paul to Hebrews are the Golden Text of the Lesson-Sermon on “Proba after Death” on Sunday in Churches of Christ, Scientist. Scriptural selections include verse from Romans: “The night far spent, the day is at hand; us therefore cast off the work darkness, and let us put on armour of light.” And from Pericles “In the way of righteous is life; and in the pathway there is no death.” “Hear, O son, and receive my sayings; for out of it are the issuance of life. Ponder the path of feet, and let all thy ways be established.” The Lesson-Sermon press also these statements from Christian Science textbook, “ence and Health with Key to Scriptures” by Mary Baker Eddy. “The discoverer of Christianity finds the path less difficult when she has the high goal alive before her thoughts, than when she counts her footsteps in deavoirg to reach it. When destination of desirable expedition speeds our progress, struggle for Truth makes strong instead of weak, resting stead of wearying one.” St. Michael’s Episcopal The Rev. D. Howard Dow, tor, has invited all girl scouts attend the special Girl Scout Service this Sunday at 10:30.

FEDERAL SPENDING Price Administrator Henderson, speaking in Detroit, said that although the U. S. is producing 35 percent more than ever before; 45 percent more than in 1929, only 12 to 14 percent of national income is going into defense. He said America is giving only one hour of eight for defense work. Although OPM schedules show this will be increased to two out of eight hours by next June, he said, Hitler is using five of every eight hours for German war efforts. OPM Research Chief Stacy May, speaking in New York, reported spending for defense in September rose to approximately $1,347,000,000, $203,000,000 higher than August. He said Hitler could be beaten if the U. S. shifted 50 percent of its productive capacity to armaments and suggested a $50,-000,000,000-a-year defense program. It seems that it is always just a “little more needed” to beat Hitler. If the spending doesn’t soon reach a peak, the people of this country will all be working for the government instead of in private enterprise. As it is now, the small manufacturer is unable to get supplies and raw materials necessary in turning out his product. He has no need for salesmen, for he has nothing to sell. There has to be a stopping point somewhere along the line. EMPLOYER PLEADS GUILTY In a complaint signed by Ruby Puchert, William Tobias, R.

Orange Products Shipped Abroad "The Lend-Lease program is one of the main factors in the tremendous demand for orange products," stated Manager Herbert S. Bailey of the Exchange Orange Products Company in his report to the Sunkist board of directors. By the end of October the plant at Ontario will have shipped 126,000 gallons of concentrated orange juice to Great Britain. This volume of concentrated juice required the equivalent of 250,000 packed boxes—or 540 railway carloads. To fill pectin orders, many of them from Britain under Lend-Lease, the pectin manufacturing equipment has been running on a 24-hour schedule, seven days a week. "Orange pulp has proved to be the ugly duckling of the Exchange products plant," said Bailey. "A few years ago it was classed as a liability; the management paid as high as fifty cents per ton of fruit to have the pulp hauled away from the plant. "But now this residue is dried and sold for cattle feed. It ranks close to rolled barley in feed value and is wholesaling for over thirty dollars per ton."
