The details and »amiflcat»ions of modern government 'are-to varied to permit each citizen to know how each tax'dollar is spent or to. Judge the effectiveness or ineffec- tiveness of the methods.by which each public function is 'carried on, without the aid of some organized interpreting -Agency. Public understanding and support of tax measures is necessary as a check : ; on iputrtic affairs. Public administra- tora very often fail to ferret out arid APPly changes in procedure which ] would contribute to economAvand-effi-. dency. Changes in methods are usual- ly impossible \without organized* activity and demand from citizens. Personal interest in, and knowledge Od tax problems, are se-rtta'ies at the tax exit gate. It is the means by Whioh the public is kept informed on ib* progress of public business. In- dividual intejest in the problems of government and taxation will bear fruit a hundred fold in improved grov- ; enunental services to the people. tTheare Is food for serious thought In thda contention. It is true that th« average citizen doe« not have' time to go Into the records of the county, .jsta-te and muriclpal government to '•fee Juat what is being done with th$ -taxpayers' money. And yet all of us ought to be better j informed Just as to What i» #oing on. Of course a great many of our civic Societies and. commercial organizations are now of service along this line and :ean continue to be of service. . And it Iff here also that -.the local newspaper can rencter a real service to the com- zmxndty. The local newspaper Is ad- tndrably equipped to give this service to <ttie public and is in most cases willing to do so.\- The 1928 panapalgn 14 coming on and It is to be hoped that it -will be a campaign of education rather than vil-Mflcatlon.

After all most ot th« taxes we -pay\ are spent at home for local improvement and local nec- earittefl and the people who pay ought to hare Bomethlogi to say ajbout what tH being- done with the money. And they) can have something 1 to say If they will only keep In closw touch with the subject. SCOUT CAMP OPENS JULY 2. More Thin One Hundred Boy* Already Enrolled—Fifteen From Lewis County.

SMITH ARMY Withdraws Hia Own Nam* From Presidential Consideration—Praises Empir* 8tate'» Governor at Worthy of Nomination. Baltimore, June 20.—Withdrawing from the Meld of Democratic presi- dential candidates within just a week of the natlonurconventlon at Houston, Gov. Albert C. Ritchie, of Maryland, In a statement to The Associated Pre«w, tonight said that \Governor Smith Is in every way fitted by ex- perience, character and ability to as- sume the leadership/' and ha* the belt chance to win. In stepping uslde for the New York executive, who, he said, \Justifies the people's faith In democracy,\ Governor RKchle added that he would. Instruct the. Maryland delegation to cast It* strength for Governor Smith. There was no expectation In the Marylander\* mind that he would be offered the vice-presidency, but even though It mlg-hi be, he will not accept it. \It has become \Increasingly evident that the greut majority of the Demo- cratic party in almo'st every section of the country are ready to alllgn them- selvej behind the leadership of Gov. Alfred E. Smith, of New York.!' said Ciovernor Ritchie. \Governor Smith has proved himself a fearless and efficient administrator of the greatest state in the union and hLs record i» a guarantee that with him as president, honesty in govern- ment would take the place of corrup- tion In government, and tliat the nat- ural resources of the country would be protected. \Whatever contributes to Demo- cratic unity will in turn contribute to Democratic victory. I think It Is my duty to do my part, and I do It gladly.\ Declaring that the . principles of \self-government and popular self- rule are challenging the attention of the country today as they have not done for years.\ Governor Ritchie continued: \To them I have dedicated such political effort as I am able to exert. Faith In them saved the south during the dark days of the reconstruction and made possible a reunited and a happy nation^ and as a son of the south I have brought to the struggle for these principle* the enthusiasm and the loyalty which came to me from my ancestors who were ready to die. and some of whom did die. for the cause In which they believed. \As a Democrat I have regarded this Miru'ggle as a duty, and as ah Amerl- r\r\ I believe that the dictates of pa- triotism require the re-establishment of these principles in our national life.\ Stating that he had been gratified to think that his own state had thnusrht him worthy of being the Democratic **t,ind«ird bearer, the Mary lander add- *d thevt he could not adequately ex- press \hif appreciation to- friends In other parts of the country who were similarly \srenerous .enough to think me worthy of that honor.\ TO COMPETE AT COUNTY FAIR.
