    THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
Haiff Flays Property
Tax as Revenue Source
Cleveland The difficulty from
which education i suffering, that of
revcnuo, tan he adoquattly met only
by revolutionary changes In our fis
cal machinery and our government
organization, Professor Kobort M.
Mais of Columbia University told the
department of superintendence of the
National Educational Association here
last week.
"It is hopeless to continue to de
pend upon the general property tax
as the sole source of state and local
revenue if we are to finance the
niogram of public education," he
said.
"ur figures show that in 1920. the
total public revenues or this country,
national, state and loea, 'were in
excess of eight billion dollars, which
means that approximately 15 per cent
of our total income was spent in con
nection with public enterprises. We
"ow do nearly one-sixth of our work
collectively under government control.
"I should like to commend to your
earnest consideration and possible
support the program of the National
Tax Association. This plan calls for
ti.e abandonment of the attempt to
tax intangible property tax. It sug
gests supplementing the tax on tan
gible property with statewide levies
on personal and business incomes
along the general lines worked out in
the tax systems of New York. Mass
achusetts and Wisconsin. There is
general agreement among those who
have given thought to the problem
that this program offers the next
logical step in tax reform in most o
our states."
They train to shoot from these spots
and acquire the knack of caging the
sphere with ease. The foul line Is
marked with a strip of linoleum past
ed to the floor at the regular seven
teen foot distance, and may thus be
discerned by touching with the foot.
When the modern says he can
drink or let it alone, he isn't talking
about will power; he's talking about
nerve.
How times change. The strap now
used in the street car to hang n
once used in the woodshed to pre
vent hanging.
Blind Students Play
Basketball Despite
Being Handicapped
The most remarkable basketball
teams in existence, probably the only
ones of their kind in the world, may
be found at the Pittsburgh Nebraska
iustitute for the blind.
Th:s institute has actually developed
among its members rival quintets, and
in spite of their handicap, they play a
game which causes one to marvel at
their speed and accuracy.
Basketball for the blind is. of course
not the ordinary cage game, but is
modified to some extent. The great
est obstacle in the way of the sight
less is accurate basket shooting. How
ever, this difficulty has been met by
placing eight ruffer mats on the floor,
four in the vicinity of each basket.
These serve as landmarks, as they
tan be easily felt with the feet, from
which the players try for the goal. ,
Thirty-one educators from other
universities and school and members
of various boards and departments of
