By McDill Boyd
The battle to raise taxes and spend more money for public
services goes on-.., and on. But taxpayers resist. A classic
confrontation is under way.
Taxpayers want relief. The burden is impressive. Costs today
levied at some level of government now take nearly one-third of
everything everybody makes in taxes. Consumers pay a heavy
penalty.
But no one wants to give up anything.
The President wants to strengthen the national defense. The
Governor seeks the largest tax increase in the history of the state.
Congress insists upon higher expense allowances for its members.
Those on public payrolls want more money. States and cities seek
grants. Compounded increases for schools and colleges every year
are not graven in stone. It only seems that way.
Programs for the poor are fiercely defended. Air waves and print
media are filled with horror stories. Tears of pity flow.
t
Yet expenditures for all of these things are today at an all-time
high. There is no end to demands. Somebody turns to government
for more, no matter how much there is.
Meanwhile, environmental demands add to the cost of doing
business. Goods cost more, as taxes cost more, and tho e at the
bottom of the economic ladder get hit the hardest.
The rich can fend for themselves. They always have. They will
eat well regardless of the price of food. It is the poor, those on fixed
incomes, and those with families to raise who pay through the nose
when government costs, unnecessary regulations, get out of hand.
Farmers struggle with high costs. Small business people find the
going tough. Some of the largest companies in the countD face
bankruptcy. Management is tightening belts. Labor is r.mking
concessions. The free marketplace is struggling to adjust to
current conditions.
But the public sector is not. Demands upon the taxpayers
continue unabated. Year by year, there is never enough.., and
never will be enough if we look to government to solve all problems.
The President has managed to tamp down the fires of inflation.
The runaway increases of past years has been slowed to a trot. He
is fiercely defending proposed budget cuts and tax reductions. But
government costs continue to soar, and the burdens upon taxpayers
and consumers will grow in proportion.
When the goose hangs high, nobody really cares. New programs,
more money come easily. We are a free-handed people.
But when the pinch comes, resistance develops. Taxpayers take
a closer look. The battle has now been joined. No one knows who
will win. Those who get, or those who pay? But unless the
imbalance between the and the private sectors can be
corrected, everybody will lose.

pate during this annual event.
"The beautiful spring weather
offers an excellent opportun-
ity for Kansans to clean out
their yearly accumulations of
trash and debris," Redmon
said. "During the winter, all
areas of homes and businesses
accumulate excessive
amounts of combustible ma-
terials," he continued, "Spring
clean-up campaigns are a nec-
essary mean of contributing
to a fire safe environment, as
well as the general health and
welfare of each Kansas com-
munity."
During 1981, the Kansas
Fire Information System of
the State Fire Marshal's Of-
lice collected over 53,600 in-
dividual incident responses by
Kansas Fire Departments.
These incidents include 14,556
fires that caused over 45
million dollars in direct pro-
perty losses, 53 civilian
deaths, 558 civilian and fire-
fighter injuries.
"3,201 of the reported fires
occurred in residential struc-
tures," said Ross Boelling,
Fire Information System
Manager. '~rbese residential
fires accounted for 16.2 mil-
lion dollars of the total pro-
petty losses, as well as 42 of
the deaths and 344 of the
injuries reported during
1981," Boelling said.

Kansas residents to improve

statistics indicate that having

in your home will give you a
2-time greater chance of sur-
viving a fire. Clean-Up Week
is a great opportunity to test
your smoke detector, or to
purchase one if you don't yet

"Fire safety is a year-round
necessity for Kansans," Red-
mon concluded, "It is truly
something that may mean the
difference between your life
or death in a fire situation. It
should not be taken lightly."

Conservation Use Acreage
Conservation use acreage
must be protected from wind
and water erosion. Producers
are encouraged to carry out
effective practices to assure
conservation benefits on
"reduced acreage cropland"
designated for conservation
use. The preferred practices
are:
1. Seeding to grass.
2. Seeding a cover crop
(legumes, sud s, sorghum
grass crosses, sweet sorghum,
millet). It may be pastured
after Oct. 15.
3. Prior year crop residue
may be used provided stubble
residue is adequate to control
erosion and weeds are con-
trolled.
4. Seedbed preparation for
fall seeding of wheat on
acreage devoted to an ap-
proved cover may begin 30
days prior to the intended
seeding date.
Clean tillage on conserving
use will be discouraged and
only approved as a last resort.
Crop Insurance
Contact your agent by Apr.
16 if you intend to destroy
wheat to comply with the 1982
program.
