YOUR DOLLARS. WORTH

Take dollar out of Your pocket, it's yours
you can do anything you like with it. But you
can't buy dollars worth of commodities OF serv-
ices. -
The reason for that is that about 25 per cent
of your dollar has to go to government If you
use it to buy theatre tickets, gasoline, cigarettes,
clothing or anything else % per cent of the cost,
on the average, will represent taxes.
The main reason we have allowed the tax prob
lem to grow so grave in this country is that mil
lions of people haven't realized that such prob
lem exists! These the people who pay no taxes
directly. Their incomes are below the level touched
by the income tax They rent homes. They do not
own business, but work for someone else. And
the result is belief that those who own businesses,
have larger incomes, and possess property pay all
the taxes.
There aren't enough large-income people in the
country to make dent in meeting the cost Of
government The great bulk of taxes are taken
from the ordinary person-and they are taken i'll
directly. Instead of writing the tax-coector a
check, most of our citizens pay their taxes I'M
knowingly during the course of daily living Rent
is higher than it would be, because the landlord
must pay taxes. Salaries smaller, because the
employer is heavily taxed. Food is more costly
because the farmer, the professor the transporter
and the final seller are all taxed. So it goes,
through everything we need and use.
Don't be fooled. Everyone pays taxes-every-
one is in danger of being forced to pay more A
reduction in taxation through less tax spending is
essential.-Florence News

WASHINGTON. Your CORE
" spondent confesses to horrible
lear that the lovely, fragile, aristo-
cratic Pauline Sabin will be hay-
ing no more rIess conferences.
AND that's a great shame, for
one Of the dearer privileges of this
harsh, hurly-burly newspaper life
H. that of gazing upcn and listen
ing to the charming, soft-voiced,
handsomely gowned Mrs. Sabin
whenever she is championing. a

But when the ethereal, exquisite
Pauline appeared before the Wash

seoundrels had checked their chiv.

The red blood of at least one in

boiled fellows who were making
life so miserable for the little lady.

HRIM duty compels one to report
that the boys soon had Mrs
Sabin contending against some tof
the meanest questions asked here

Time and again it was obvious
that Press Agent Bill Murphy of
the league should be rushing to the
rescue with the bottle of whatever
he uses to relieve tae filters.
Sharp questions as to what the
leagues affirmative progra m"
really was, the nature of the lib

lobbying efforts, lis position on
New Deal measures, the financial
interests of its members and in

bitter contests over railroads,
their location, etc, over policies
dealing with commerce and the

the west was ever after able in
some measure to protect its in

of the different sections and IL

Nevertheless, there was forced

PICTURE ITALY'S COOPERATIVE
STATE IN AMERICAN TERMSI ;
lRu BRUCE CATTONl

1t is always easier to figure out what is
going on in foreign country if we trans
late the action there into local terms. By
imagining how some European program
wauld look if it were being followed in
America, with American actors in the lead
ing roles. we can usually get a pretty fair
idea of its nature. .,. ...
So it is with the latest development of
NusSoHni'S cooperative state" in Italy, 1t
IS worth while to picture this in America
not only because that gives US better idea
Of Italian conditions, but also because it
shows, by contrast, how far from Fascism
our own Set-up really is. $50 -. ...
Suppose, then, that We have this Musso-
that you are a business man anxious to
open new factory to make, let US say,
elotheS-pins.
First of all, you must go to Washington
pin industry needs new factory and that
you will be able to sell clothes-pins if you
make them. You must also permit the
minister of corporations-Sec Roper,
for instance-to put man on your board
of directors and examine your books.
Getting the necessary approval, you
open up. You automatically become q
member of a vast corporation which, en-
braces all the wood-cutters, clothes pin
makers and clothes-pin sellers in the Uni
ted States; your employees, likewise, be-
come members of an allied corporation in
Guiding all other such employees.
The wages you pay are liked by law;
you pay no more and no less Your work
ers can't strike, and you can't fire them.
Any dispute must go before the Labor Re
lations Board, whose decision is final.
Suppose you don't like this, and want TO
appeal to Congress for change, Congress,
as it previously existed, is gone. Instead,
you find group of congressman represent
ing, not the various states, but the indus
tries of steel, oil, acknowledging, farm
ing, railroads, and so on.
Each of these industries is grouped in a
gigantic corporatiOn-whose head is Mr..
Roosevelt, assisted by three of Jim Farley S
boys.
Meanwhile Mr.. Farley's men are forever
inspecting your factory to see if you are
efficient. If you aren't, they can shut you
up or make any change in your method OF
operations they see fit.
A fantastic picture? To be sure. But i.
is nothing more than translation into
american terms of the actual situation il,
Italy today.

They Bank Her Money
Dear Miss Fairfax:
What do you think of a situa-
ton like this? I am a girl Of 19
and have a position that pays
me $18 a week. My parents
who are very thrifty, make me
turn all of this over to them
because they say I am nothing
but a child and have no idea
Of the value Of money.
They give me a little spend
ing money for carfare, lunches,
etc., and buy my clothes, but
not the kind Of clothes I would
like to have. The rest Of the
money they put in a savings
account for me, but I can't get
any of it out.
My father tells me that this
may seem hard now, but that
some day I will thank them for
forcing these habits of thrift
on me in my youth. But I would
like to manage my own affairs.
Please give me your point of
view. RACHEL.
The prudent thing for me to
do would be to applaud your
parents thrift and say they
were doing the right thing.
But I do think it's pretty tough
on a girl of 10 not to be able
to select her own clothes and
have a little fun out Of her pay

they would send a picture to
me-or get in touch with me
about it. I am particularly in

breed of dog-so here goes.

centuries before Christ.

the home and as companion

their long, flowing. sleeves.
The dog was supposed to be
the size Of a squirrel, and so,
to keep him small, he was shut
up in caniSters or restricted
places lest exercise enlarge his
frame. And as he became
smaller, he developed into a re-
markably gentle dog, as be-
hooved the close associate Of
milady of ancient Greece.
Somewhat later the breed
enjoyed the same role in
France, where it was a con-
slant companion of French roy

ALUABLE SINGLE FOODS ARE IMPORTANT TO GOOD HEALTH
Maltese Highly Priced As Pet

} country, too, the tiny Maltese
has always been priced as a
pet, not so much for its small
size as for its gentle manner
and aristocratic mien.
Quite a little difference Of
opinion greeted the change Of
the name from Maltese terrier
to Maltese. Although the breed
is generally conceded to have
originated on the Isle Of Malta,
the true type and character OF
the dog leans to two sharply
distinguished sources.
The ears, coat and body are
of spaniel turn, while the head
and eyes are terrier-like. The
disposition seems to partake
of both types Of dogs, for
though by nature gentle, the
Maltese is credited with real
aggressiveneSS once his interest
is aroused. He is a pure white
dog, weighing five or six
pounds, covered with a long,
straight coat like spun silk.
If you have . good picture
of your pet, Liz Hume invites
you to send it in for use in this

some Of your experiences would

liberal with your salary.
Declines to Give Her Up
Dear Miss Fairfax:
Two years ago I began to 20
to an evening law class and, as
I was a stranger in Washing.
ton, I was glad to make friends
with some Of the more attrac-
tive fellow students.
One young man was very at.
tentive to me. He never became
serious until a month ago. I
told him I could never be Sc.
riouS about him. He was ter
ribly upset, and did not see me
for some time.
He called me on the phone
and asked for an appointment.
When he came 1 was shocked
by his appearance. He said he
understood how I felt and
would be thankful if we could
be just friends. l am sorry he
looks so ill and distressed.
Would you advise me to con-
tinue seeing him?
DOUBTFUL.
The faithful type, which asks
only an opportunity to see you
once in a while, is one of the
most difficult to refuse. Are
you quite sure that you can't
feel a deeper interest in him?
