Representation Without Taxes
“No taxation without representation” was the slogan of the Rev.
elution of 1776. Will it become necessary in these peaceful revolutionary
times lo transpose the slogan: “No representation for delinquent tax
dabtorqY”
Voting certificates are issued on receipt $1.75 poll tax, and under
the constitution the citizen (who does not suffer from any disability,
of minority, for^ instance.) may then vote even though he has for a
long tifne owed the state thousands of tax dollars which he is amply
able to pay.
Recent disclosures concerning methods of some eastern bankers in
evading federal income taxes do -not tell half the siory. The Texas
Junior Chamber of Commerce reports that many wealthy interests in
this state have m)t bothered to “evade" the tax by cortrealing the ohli-
gation-r-the obligation is plain to be seen-i-thay sintply do not pay
what they cannot deny they owe. Yet these men, because they do have
large iijterests, often feel thnt their voices should soun«i loudest in pulH
lie councils.

Statistics collected by the Junior Chamber show $12O,0(HUK>0 un^
paid ta$es due the state, counties, and governmental agencies.)and that
of thistsum $46,11K),000 became delinquent in the one year of ll».V2. Th«l
deficit |n the state funds now exceeds $l(t,tKH).0<X>, and deficit* of counJ
ties an$ cities are daily growing.
Th$ deficits will have to I** covered—even if it c*in Ih* done in nil
othcT wjay than by levying additional taxes on those who will pay. Bui)
this shquld got be necessary. If the tax collector is powt-rless, the logis-j
lature Should give him means of enforcing cpllectiod fVofti'those whoso

in the past, depressions have fol
