This was disputed by Ted Olson who alleged that the approval was given merely to the improvement of the present highway without land taking. He also pointed out that neither of these two bodies were aware of the present plans, which voided the Department's argument, as they would not have approved such plans with prior knowledge.

Questions were also raised about the appraisal of various parcels and the wide variance in state offers for land of similar nature, some side by side. "During the meeting the question was raised concerning the possible relocation of the highway through the Flickerwood Farms area, across Route 6 and down through the valley behind the Kane Manor to intersect with the Kinzua Road near the sewage treatment plant. The Highway Department stated this would prove more costly to which those present objected, citing use of the present Flickerwood Road and the minimum land taking by avoiding residential areas.

Tax Burden On The Poor TT is not the affluent and rich who pay the highest percentage of their earnings, in taxes, but the poor. The very poor, with family incomes under 82,000, pav proportionately the highest tax of all a walloping 50 per cent of earnings. These disclosures by a Census Bureau official place a heavy burden on the American conscience. There is no way of escaping the conclusion that this state of affairs is an injustice felt in varying degree by millions of our citizens. The figures cited by Herman P.

Miller, chief of the Census Bureau's population division, make it clear that regressive state and local sales and property taces that is, taxes not scaled according to ability to pay as income tax is are the villain in the piece. The poor are hardest hit because, the smaller the income, the larger the proportion that goes for such taxes on necessities. Above the $2,000 level, proportionate taxes decline somewhat: 34.6 of a family income in the $2,00044,000 range goes for taxes. The proportion continues to dwindle as income rises. At $6,000, it's 31 per cent, and it goes down to a low of 29.2 per cent of an $8,000 $10,000 income.

From then it ranges gradually upward again, with 32.8 per cent paid for taxes at the $25,000 $50,000 level. One ameliorating factor must be noted: at lower income levels, so called "transfer" payments from Social Security and welfare funds reduce the impact. At the $4,000 56,000 level, for example, if transfer payments are considered the tax bite averages 26 rather than 31 per cent of 4 No matter how one looks at it, though, the statistical picture is one of gross imbalance so far as regressive state and local taxes are concerned. The poor are proportionately much harder hit than the rich. It is a situation that fosters human misery and emphasizes the gap between the haves and have nots in our nation.
