O. leader, would seem, at first glance; to be as far apart as the poles—a sharp study in contrasts. ut last week. on the same day, both men issued statements which reveal philosophies strikingly similar. Said Banker Morgan, in commenting on the furore about devious tricks to evade the income tax: ‘Anybody is justified _in doing anything so long as the law does not say it is wrong It’s no pleasure to pay taxes, and you don’t pay more than you have to.” Said C. I. O. Leader Lewis, testifying on the new wage and hour bill: “‘] favor the establishment of minimum wages by legislation. but I oppose going farther than that. For exfanple. I wouldn't want the government to go into the mining industry, find that pay is higher than a fair wage and order a rdeuction. That would destroy all our efforts at collective bargaining.” In effect, both men said: “Get all you can get; little as you can get away with!” The contrast is not between Mr. Morgan and Mr. Lewgive ac is, but between their common philosophy and the principle: a good book—and still a _good rule!

Accurate records indicate that the saving has been $148,900 a year during the four year period, or a total in excess of $590,000. The fact that many of the pogitions from which employees were retired were not filled immediately, or were abolishel, accounted for more than half of the savings. Other economies were effected by filling the vacant position at the minimum salary fo the class, which in most cases was lower than the salary re. § and ALWAYS in SEASON prove the state service through the replacement of aged employees with younger men and women, and that the system also permits individuals who have grown old in the service to retire on a small income. The economy of reduced expenditures for personnel was not anticipated in the original retirement plan, coming as a boon to the tax paying public.

We, the eels may be overly curious and a bit too familiar, but for many years we have paid you sincere tributes of love, admiration and respect; these are not trifles to be scowled upon; unleash your sense of humor, unlimber your gift of repartee, give us a story and give it with a smile.
