PEACE CAMPAIGN

A WORLD troubled by talk of war and revolution
n is the background That Will draw unusual inter
est to the all-day forum and meeting of the
Emergency Peace Campaign here Monday.
In 300 cities over the country the peace cam
paign is being conducted a step in the movement
to keep the United States out Of future wars.
The peace aims of the British Labor Party will be
outlined by George Lansbury, Labor Party leader in
the British Parliament This program advocates in
ternational cooperation to materials and
markets. and fair by all nations to the worlds
raw materials.
Rabbi Ferdinand NJ Isserman ST. Louis, and Ray
Newton Philadelphia, executive secretary of the
American Friends Service Committee peace
ton, will speak Gov. McNutt Mayor Kern and
others will be on the program
One thing that will be stressed is how economic
crises bring political unrest and war and how pros
peritS is linked with peace. Nations can live more
easily in peace if they not torn by economic
strife.
The value of this campaign is that it centers
discussion the finding of every possible road to
friendly international understanding.

sCUTTING THE PHONE BILL

TWO bulky documents which have been made
4 part of the record in the Federal Communca-
tons Commissions telephone investigation may save
millions of dollars to telephone users.
They reports by the commissions accounting
department license contract relations between the
American Telephone and Telegraph Co. and
ciated companies. They will be available to state
regulating bodies in defending rate reductions in
state and Federal courts
The first test of their potency probably will be
made in the Wisconsin Circuit Court, where the
Wisconsin Telephone Co. intends to appeal decision
-of the state commission reducing local exchange
rates $S63,oO0 year.
The state commission found that the company
failed to prove the value of services rendered it by
the A. T. and T. for which it pays IL per cent of it's
gross revenues annually.
The reports made public by the. Federal Com
munications Commission, after months of work by
it's accounting and legal departments, contain much
data intended to support this claim. If it is sue
cessfuy used in large number of rate cases, it may
eventually cut some s13,Oooooo year from con-
sunners' telephone bills.

A WOMAN'S VIEWPOINT
BY Mrs. Walter Ferguson

THE fathers of the Constitution would be fab
Il bergasted if they could make us return visit.
Imagine Thomas Jefferson being greeted at state
border by gun-toting guards who demanded to see
his bank book!
There may be excellent economic reasons for
such high-handed procedure as that used by the
made public by Gov. Ed C. Johnson of the latter
state sound far from logical.
The border was patrolled, we hear, because he
didn't want indigents coming in who might by Of
fering to work for lower wages, do harm to the
native laborers in the sugar beet districts. But
Governor with sufficient power to call out the Ma
tonal Guard to keep such men from his bailiwick
ought to have the power to prosecute any employer
in the sugar-beet district who paid less than the
established wage to his workers.
do not pretend to know the techncalities of
constitutional law. But I have read the ConStitu-
ton, and get from it picture of patrol which
forbids the poor to travel from state state with
out molestation. It seems highly improbable that
the founders of republic intended to reserve GER
tain of the pleasant and beautiful portions of
the country for the well-to-do
No will deny that the droves of idle men
now adrift in the land are to those states
with pleasant climates But that's just their hard
luck, or ought to be. For what more natural than
that the obless should strike out for places where
jobs are obtainsble, food cheap and sleeping COM
Portable under the open sky?
Aliens may be dealt with in this summary fash
ion but it remains mystery how under the Con-
stitution, American citizens can be prevented from
crossing state lines

THINKS HE CAN EXPLAIN
INSTRUMENTATION AT SEA
By James C. Barnett

By James c. Barnett
In Thursdays Times Joseph Urban
of Bloomington comments on the
INSTRUMENTATION among ships crews
on American ships. Having been a
seaman at one time I can perhaps
throw some light on the nature of
the INSTRUMENTATION.
The American seamen in the late
twenties at least were being paid
about $40 for seven day week, each
day running as high as Is hours. The
ship I was on had only three Amer
leans in the crew 1t was an Ameri-
can ship registered out of an Amer
lean port, carrying American pas
sengers and freight, but if one
wanted a job the admission of be-
ing an American and having a
knowledge of the English language
was decided handicap.
The men who hired the personnel
were all either first papers"
Americans or naturalized, and they
hired men of their own kind. The
men in these responsible positions
were mostly English. A subtle
propaganda pervaded these ships.
It was something like this, Nov
you are an American and no good
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1936-05-02

American wants a low-paying Job
on a ship when he can have a good
one at high pay ashore. Besides,
Americans are drunkards and aren't
reliable in emergencies.
I knew three of these philoscphi-
cal "first-paper" Americans who
were on the Moro Castle. One was
an EngliShman, one a Spaniard, the
other an Armenian. They were
among the crew members who took
to the lifeboats. The officers of the
Moro Castle who stayed with the
ship were Americans.
In this emergency at least the
American members of the crew felt
a tie of some kind linking them
with the American passengers, a
feeling that "first-paper" Americans
didn't possess,
The Seamen have now organized
and II ever Simon-pure patriotic
labor movement was afoot in the
United States it is this one. But
their task isn't easy. Engaged in
trying to get more American sea-
men on American ships, like all
labor movements they are being
"smeared with the tar of radiL
calism." It is small. wonder thew

once published on the Jones family tax budget:
Taxes on their automobile gas oil and tires 1929;
on cigarets "a pack a day., s2190; on alcoholic
beverages SO: movies, theater and ball game adj
missions, $3.50; matches, playing cards cosmetics
toilet articles, radio and refrigerator parts 1855
yXTE hear Tot of dernagogic outcries against the
La Toilette amendments because they would
assess additional visible eves against moderate in
comes. These complaints DO not point out that the
La Toilette assessments against the higher incomes
would be much greater.
Nor do they seem at all concerned about that
much heavier unseen tax burden of the little
fellow"
What are the facts about the La Toilette amend
ments2 Let's take the Joneses again Amendment
No /, reducing married couples exemption to
$4,000, would increase the Jones income tax from
$3.50 to s3360-much less than the invisible Fed
eral tax bill which the Joneses pay. Amendment
No g. increasing the normal rate from per cent
to 6, but not reducing the exemption, would boost
the income tax to s2040-stii less than the in
visible taxes. Amendment No. plus amendment
No 2 would raise the Jones family income tax to
s5O4o-or just s127 more than they pay in invisible
taxes. Amendments No. 3 and No. would not af-
feet the Joneses; they are surtax increases.
The Browns, who live across the street from the
JoneseS, have an income of $4,000. They pay no
income tax now, but they do pay substantially the
same amount as the Joneses pay in invisible taxes.
The La Toilette amendments would not make the
Browns pay income tax, but the money raised
by the La Toilette taxes would enable the govern
rnent to the burden of the invisible taxes paid
by the Browns and the Smiths and the Perknses
who make up approximately SIS per cent of our
population living on family incomes of less than
$500 year.
The only way to bring tax relief to the little
fellow" is to find substitute for those taxes which
really burden him. The La Toilette taxation prin-
cple has that aim. If it is adopted the govern
ment will depend less and less upon raised
by invisible taxes which have no relation to ability
to pay and more and revenue raised by
direct taxes proportional to ability to pay.
And the taxes of the people are flushed out
into the open, more and more will the people chal-
enge the wisdom of government expenditures. And
that is the reason, especially in election year. why
it is hard to get politicians to accept the La Toilette
principle.

VALUES THE ELDERS FOR
THEIR EXPERIENCE

BY Jimmy Cafouras
What is it that a rising, growing
boy or girl wants in this life? That
is easily answered-opportunity.
What is it that an aged person
wants? Security, of course.
What does a sick individual
want? Rather, what must we give
such a person--wlat does he need?
Comfort.
What does a full-grown, hale and
hearty, intelligent, capable and re-
sourceful person want? Expression.
Now lets piece this whole affair
together.
Every child should be educated
and prepared in every way for its
b3ief heyday of fitness. The cap
able should be capitalized on and
exploited for the good of the whole.
That is possible only through proper
guidance and education and an ap-
propriate apprenticeship.
A lot of our self-styled progress
sive thinkers are beginning to rec
ognize the value of age and ex-
perience. Every old man. and wom-
an is a living parcel of knowledge
and resource. They glory most when
they pass them on to the young.

the old folks to say, Hold up
