Rail and tax debate on public vs private ownership
A fragmented editorial discusses Canada and United States rail policy, criticizing government ownership as failing to solve transport issues. It notes Canada has not solved its railway problem, suggests privatization as a solution, and recalls wartime government operation with costly results. The piece also compares county tax levies in Kossuth and Emmet counties, arguing for consolidation. It mentions bank failures and deposit guarantees as a tax relief measure.
