Our supply of oleanders is due for
a slump. We just cant resist send
ing the whole bunch to the white
haired lady in a blue coat who so
skillfully threated her way on BIZ
cyle through BraWley's downtown

ment as she pedaled along in front
of his car at good 10-mile- hour
clip, but he rubbed his eyes thrice
!, and almost hit fireplug when she
took her hands from the handlebarS
and balanced like a veteran.
RR drove home humming, "Bi-
cycle Built for Two" If RR only had
a tandem bike he'd call next Sunday
afternoon. .
Our Error, and Thanks
No less than four telephone calls
and one personal visit Tuesday af-
ternoon and night assured RR that
! the stage driver who fed and cared
Paso to Los Angeles was Bob Lloyd
and that he drives for the All-Amer-
ican stages, not the Golden Eagle
line. Thanks, all of you, for the
name of the driver. Regardless Of
the stage line, he still gets the olean-

Congress Faces
a Dual Responsibility
By RAYMOND PITCAIRN
By RAYMOl
National Chairman
-Sentinels of the Republic

AS members of Congress reconvene a
Washington, America is hearing many
familiar promises of economy in gov.
eminent.
Let's hope our legislators mean 1t thi.
time. Let's hope they remember thai
the staggering debts piled up by gov.
eminent must be paid out of our earn
ings and our savings; that what they
do to the public budget affects Oul
family budget as well.
Let's hope that, unlike New Year
resolutions, the promises will be full
filed. It's time they were. For today
as q result of reckless spending by our
federal, state and local governments, q
public debt of more than fifty billion
dollars has been written up for us, the
workers and the earners of the United
States, to pay.
Fifty billion dollars! That's a lot Of
money. And it will take lot of taxes
to pay it off. The interest and service
charges alone cost us billions every
year. It's one of the reasons why five
out Of every twenty-five dollars of the
national income = which means the
money earned by the American peo-
ple-is consumed by taxes. And unless
the economists are wrong, lot of the
bills which these taxes are straining to
meet will be handed down as grim
legacy to our children and our grand
children.
But you can't blame it all on Con-
gress. The politicians penchant for
squandering the peoples money has ex-
tended to states and cities and smaller
units as well. More than twenty billions
of our fifty billion-d dollar public debt
is in fact, charged against state and
local governments.
We pay for that, too-if not directly,
then in higher rents and in heavier
bills for food, clothing and other neces-
stiles, all camoufaged as "hidden
taxes"
Only large dose of the frequently
promised economy in government can
tighten the load. Only an escape from
the billionitis complex of the past few
years can help.
Today our Senators and Representa-
tives at Washington can do their part.
Because of the Importance of the pres
emit session, the eyes of the entire
nation are upon them as never before.
II they keep their promises and apply
the brakes instead Of the accelerator
to public spending they will not only
ease our burdens but will set an ex-
ample for state and local politicians to
follow. They face double and seri-
GUS responsibility.
Let's hope they meet it squarely-not
only with our own relief in mind, but
to assure the security and prosperity
Of America.

Directors of the Indiana Retail

ton today held legislative-politi-
cal session here to frame resolutions
opposing the Indiana gross income
tax law.
The text of the resolutions was
to be presented for adoption at a
mass meeting of more than 100 In
diana grocers this afternoon, w. F..
SWlggett, president, said the direc-
tors would draw up three resolu-
tlonS opposing the law.
Today's meeting followed the
state convention in Evansville at
which the grocers and meat dealers
termed the income tax as "most un-
just, burdensome and unbearable."
The convention resolution further
stated that, because it is absolu-
tely necessary to secure relief for
the $500 individual retail food mer-
chants in Indiana, whom our or
ganization represents, this iniquitous
law must be killed before it kills the
business of those we represent"
Officers in addition to Mr.. Swig-

are Joseph Guidone, Indianapolis,
