REFRIGERATION BY
ELECTRICITY NOW
POSSIBLE FOR ALL
New Method Replaces Old
System Of Ice Consumption
Moderately Priced,

Electricity Is the one agency that
has done more than any other to sim
plify and tighten the labor of the
home. 1t has made possible the great
est c~onveniences In the o modest
homes. One of the latest avenues into
which this great motive force has
been directed is hat of refrigeration.
For a number Of years this form of
refrigeration has been successfully
Used In large plants, but it is only in
eoent years that it has been adapted
to s by the average householder.
Mr.. Finch, manager of the r~efrigera-
ton department of the Indianapolis
Light and Heat Company, says the
Serv-el is the first truly successful
automatic system of refrigeration
priced within reach of the average
householder.
THE two main objections to the
~cake-of-ioe method" continued Mr..
Finch, were that 1t was unable to
maintain the same degree Of tempera-
lure at all times. and the ice melting
caused deterioration of foodstuffs.
With the Serv-el automatic refrig,
Grafton there Is a definite temperature,
automatically controlled. There are
no chemicals to renew, absolutely
nothing 10 do from month TO month
except oil the electric motor.
Our plant is absolutely guaranteed
in every way and for the first year
there is free service. The Serv-el ice
chamber Is easily installed in the ice
box and the installation is most sim
pie, as it requires no plumbing and
no special electrical work"

HANEY CHAMPIONS
MELLON PROPOSAL
FOR CUT IN TAXES
Economist Believe Measure
Would Greatly Stimulate
Business.
BY DIR. L. H. n

Director of the Bureau OF Business
Research. New York University.
NEW YORK, Nov. 19.-Poldclans
have been talking about taxation and
the soldiers bonus and prominent
business men have had their say.
Let me tell you how the matter looks
70 an economist, merely adding that
no economist I know Of made a cent
out Of the war and hat very few
earn over $1,000 per year.
Here are the facts:
l. Surplus income has begun to pile
up in the Government treasury.
partly due to unusual tariff revenue
and to the sale of the last of the war
materials.
2. This surplus revenue, insofar as
it can be counted on. comes from the
taxes you and I pay, from the taxes
We pay when we go to the movies,
buy a watch, or send a telegram. l
know middle aged s-tenographers who
pay income taxes. The farmers as a
class pay the largest taxes in pro-
portion to income.
3. The cost of living is steadily in
creasing and last month rose from
1872 per cent over pre-war to 1913 per
cent. This last is related to taxes in
two ways First, it makes 1t harder
for us to hear our heavy taxes.
Second, the taxes increase the cost
of living.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1923-11-19
Government Surplus

Thus, while living costs are rising
and taxes are growing more burden
some, we are confronted by a Govern
ment surplus. What is the answer?
IT is-reduced taxes. This Will tighten
the load for all and lead to reduce the
cost Of living. One thing seems
to stand in the way, namely, the
soldiers bonus.
We should remember that the ex-
soldiers are a part of the nation. 1t
will in the long run do them no good
to give them a little money, for they
will lose more by the injury that
the whole nation will suffer as a re-
suit. The best way to aid them is
to do the best thing for the common
good.
Let us see how the proposed tax
reduction would work, Secretary Mel
Ions suggests to Congress, in the
first place, that it make q rs per
cent reduction in taxes on all earned
incomes, such as wages and salaries.
In the second place, he suggests a
reduction in the rate Of the normal
tax on personal incomes.
These two steps are estimated to
mean a total saving to those of us
who have incomes OF $4,000 or less Of
S92, 0OO, 900. In other words, Govern
ment expenditure can be cut down so
that each year every $4,000 family
with two children can have S12 nor
and every $5, 900 family $40 more. to
or spend as they choose. Cat
the same time the cost Of living would
be reduced(.
