NEW DEALERS — FIGHT NEW TAX REVISION PLAN : By CLEM ‘WHITAKER There are, today, in addition to Republicans and Democrats, Protestants, Catholics and Jews, two widely separated political economic groups—to wit, these who still believe in individual initfative, and those who believe in a government controlled economy. That, at first glance, may seem to be an unfair and artificial division, but actually it is not, and post ‘war problems will shortly make the line of demarcation exceedingly clear. The show down in fact, will come in the very near future over the recommendations of the Committee for Economic Development, a group of far sighted, but hard boiled business men,.which has juat _filed its findings with congress. This committee, headed by Paul ‘baker Corporation, makes blunt. acknowledgment of the fact that during the ten years of the Hoover. Roosevelt depression the nation had eight or nine million unemployed, despité the muiti billion dollar pumppriming experiment of the New Deal, and that high level’ employ= ment was achieved only when the country went to war. It makes no attempt to fix the blame for. this misadvaneture, but it makes recommendations .for the future which every American who wants the Dgtion returned to. solid ground certainly should consider. Taxation, says this committee, should be used to raise revenues, hot to punish any gropp in the community. And it therefore . recommends the abolition of all New Deal created taxes which are designed as punitive measurés against business, but it also. urges an end to all taxes which put a halter on. indvidual _. Power—such ag federal.excise and ‘sales taxes. tf The present income les rate: of 23 per cent for the. lower bracket would be replaced ‘by a single standard rate of 16 to 20 per cent, under the new setup. The maximum income tax rate, now. ‘94 per cent above would be 73 per cent. Most important of all the committee’s’ recommendations would éliminate the discriminatory double tax. on the corporate. stockholders income. visions which would still provide the government with three times as much as it received in any ‘pre war year, . . the committee declares that its main Durpose is to take the heat oft. legitimate business, and that. its Jprogram would provide ten million. more jobs after the war than America ever provided in “pre War years, Honest, private employment this the primary objectives of any sound @overnment—and most American citizens will agree with that premise, Primarily, says the committee, its recommendations would “instill jus}tifiable. confidence’ in theintegrity . . of the government the soundness of . ' the dolld¥, and the‘safety of the federal governbent.’” That, ceytainly is a Worthy. obspective. .

Last year the Quartermaster T0 U.S. FIGHTING MEN ABROAD Deer hides for the armed forces is the plea of the U. S. Quartermaster Corps asked hunters to make their deer hides available for manufacture into clothes for soldiers. The U. S. forest service assisted in collecting the hides and turning them over to Boy and Girl Scout groups for processing and shipping to manufacturers. Today Forest Supervisor Guerdon Ellis of the Tahoe national forest is asking his rangers to assist in gathermg deer hides and getting them/on their way to becoming warm gloves, jackets, footwear and_ other articles vital to soldiers operating in cold countries—for aviators flying at extreme altitudes. Give your deer hides to the Boy and Girl Scouts groups in your home town, the farm bureau group too. ‘The hides will be sold to a commercial tanner and the proceeds will be certain’ economic buying! $500, 000 wonld be 61 per cent.

The yard completed its first ship ‘@ wooden tug, in 1869. Since then it has steadily grown and. diversified . } its labors: Today, not only are ships repaired at.Mare Island, ‘but maimed and suffering men from the battlés of the South Pacific find haven and relief in the great hospital there. With San -Francisco the principal port of departure for the Pacific theatre ofiwar Mare Island has become of inestimable, irreplacable importance. An ‘entire city revolves its daily life around “the island.” ValRecommending a series of tax re-/ 1 lejo is today a city o{ naval personnel, of workers and their familias, and.of thriving satellite enterprises. Mare Island is:typical-of-all of the pother great naval installations, ship yards, hospitals and facilities in the San Francisco bay area which draw upon the resources and the wealth of horthern and ‘central California to _\eontribute the utmost to an Americ-’ an victory ‘in the Pacific. x * Prineipal use of andalusita is in the manufacture of porcelain for Spark plugs and heat resistant labortory ware.
