TAX BURDEN
= TOO HEAVY

NEW YORK, Nov. IS USJ.
Picturing the Government IS
drifting toward possible chaos,
Major George l.. Berry, Federal
coordinator, today urged industry
and labor to unite ii charting
future national policies.
Berry was the luncheon guest
Of the American Arbitration Asso-
citation. To more than 1000 rep
resentativeS Of capital, manage
ment and labor, Berry declared
the present tax situation "iS be-
coming burdensome." He said:
"It isn't sound economies to
tax business out Of business"
Berry has called q conference
at washington on December 8
out Of approximately 5000 invita-
tionS, he said three-fourths had
accepted,
Both at Washington and in his
talk yesterday, Berry emphasized
the coming conference would be
free Of any governmental influence.
He admitted, however, he could
give no assurance that the Admin.
iStration would accept or be guided
by any proposals that might be
made.
Without committing himself,
Berry left the impression with his
hearers the objective sought at
the coming conference would be q
recovery program which might be
legislated into q successor to the
national recovery act, voided by
the Supreme Court.
In pleading for the cooperation
Of capital, management and labor,
Berry declared their interests were
mutual. Each, he said, had q vital
interest in the protection Of agri-
culture and predicted that crop
control would become q perma.
|nent feature Of Government. Berry
said:
"Are we to 60 on increasing our
taxes; adding to our debt until,
some day when the limit has been
reached we are then forced to say
to our Government, we can 60 no
farther?"

Definition Of
Good Sport
BY VIRGINIA LEE

What's the definition OF a good
sport2" We usually think Of him
or her as one who does not sit down
and weep and wall when adversely
hits them, don't we, but who can
take IT." and instead CT wasting time
feeling sorry for themselves, put
their wits 10 work finding a way
out.
Some people call a person a good
sport who joins In all the activities
Of the group. including those that
may net be so desirable. and they
are flat tires" If they do not fol-
low the mob.
Then some folk call us good
sports" II we do what they want US
10, and we're not If we don't.
And there are times when we're
not at all sure we like being coed
sports. II seems sometimes that
while we are willing to assume our
obligations all the burdens are SHOW
ed on shoulders. while people
who refuse 10 take any responsibility.
are carried along on others should
erS and life is made easy for them.
NY idea OF a good sport IN a hus-
band is n who treats his wife as
he would his male pals. but better.
Who goes $3.50 with her in money
matters. fun and responsibilities, but
realizes that in some ways she isn't
as strong as he Is, and needs a little
consideration.
And a good sporting wife is one
who can sec her husbands side Of
any question as well as her own. Who
does her own job well-taking care
Ct the house and children, as long as
she Is able-without b~urdening him
more than can be helped realizing
that his Job takes his strength and
ability and home should. In the main,
be a place of relaxation and inspira-
ton.
This wife knows that her husband
should have a little time to 90 out
with the fellows. and doesn't get
fretful about ii, when he occasionally
50 goes out.
