MORATORIUM ON DEBTS
(And on Unnecessary Taxes?)
The war brdeet for the fiscal year 1942-43 amounts-to
$77,000,000,000.
Existine taxes will realize $17,000,000,000.
ADDITIONAL taxes, exceeding $6,000,000,000, must
be levied.
Those enormous figures benumb the lay

man’s life becomes grimly
realistic when no less an authority than Randolph E. Paul, tax
advisor to the U. S. Treasury,
warns that a moratorium on
private debts may. become necessary so taxpayers may meet
new income taxés. Paul reported to Congress last week. __
Many individuals are finding it difficult, if not impossible, to continue amortizinz the
mortgages on their homes, or
to maintain premium payments on life insurance and endowment contracts, or perhaps even payments on instalment pvurchases of automobiles, refrigerators, etc. The hardships re-.
sulting from the imposition of heavy income taxes on persons
with commitments to repay debts present a difficult problem.
The problem—could be dealt with from a wider point of view .
by some sort of more or less general moratorium on debt pay.

Attorney General Warren is for an adequate. orideful

of California’s present system to the limit of the ability of the
people, and for a competent national system. He faces this issue as every other, with complete integrity and candor.

California's registration of voters is at a level far below
that of two years ago. San Francisco's registration is down 10
per cent. Los Angeles has dropped 13 per cent. San Diego

On the Democratic side is
Frank Finnegan, who, we believe would like to be an indenendent Democrat. but does
not care to risk the displeasure
of the Olson controlled state
democratic committee. As matiters stand today we think his
chance of gaining the Democratic nomination in August is
extremely good. All four candidates are trying for it and
we_expect Finnegan will win
it. He is the first Democratic
candidate of outstanding character and ability who has raised his head in these mountains
in many a year.
And, ah yes, there is a lady
in the race. A Democratic lady
who has thrown her bonnet
into the ring. She is Mrs.
Clark of Sutter Creek, Amador County, There is a feminine
vacancy in the House of Representatives caused by the discreet refusal of Miss Jean Ran(kin to run again. A man will
take her place. Mrs. Clark proposes to take Harry Englebright’s seat in the California
delegation. Well, in this case,
. woman proposes, but the voter
disposes. We doubt if there. is
anything in the record of women in Congress that would warrant the electorate giving Mrs.
. Clark more than a kind look.
We need a he-man in Congress to represent a district of
. tall mountains 500 miles long.
We need an independent man,
one who does not take _program from his party, who does
his own thinking and voting
and, most important, one who
can see over the Sierras into a
sick world that looks for courage and leadership to the greatest and most powerful democracy of all time: That is the
kind of Congressmen we need
and need desperately.
245 Youths Registered
On Fifth R-Day 2
‘Clerk Merle Morrison of the Nevada County Selective Service Board
announced today 245 youths between
the ges of 18 and 20 registered in
Nevada County on the fifth R Day.
This was about 150 short of what
. had been expected by the Selective
. service board.
Nevada City had a registration of
66 and Grass Valley 127. Two registered at Indian Springs, one at
North San Juan, four in Washington,
34 in Truckee, two in Chicago Park.
three in North Bloomfield and six
at Soda Springs.
Otherwise we descend to the low
brute level of our enemies, and
will have lost the war in fact if
not in name.
