BETAS ASSAILS 'HIGH TAXES'
Clay Center. Oct. 21 Tax reduc
ion was held foremost of the issuer,
involved in the current state cam
paign in an address by Charles W.
Bryan, Democratic candidne for gov
ernor, here Tuesday night.
Declaring the cost of state govern
ment had increased 500 per cent in
less than 12 years. Mr. Bryan said
the Republican party, "in control
most of the time, was chargeable
alone for 'the present unbearable tax
burden."
The present Weaver administra
tion, the former governor continued,
"is the most costly in the history of
Nebraska, and there is no hope of
any relief from the Republican par
ty." "Governor Weaver two years
ago, to secure his election,
promised the people a careful,
business administration, with a
reduction in the cos of state
government and a correspond
ing reduction in state taxes,
but he has broken 'hose prom
ises and has increased the num
ber of state employes by 50
per cert,-' Bryan asserted.

called out, surrounding the audience
