According to the estimates which
have been presented to the finance
committees by the budget commission
and the Department of Revenue, the
three per cent sales tax with the ex-
emptions will yield approximately S.
100000 the first year and $4,000, 900
the second year of the new biennium,
as compared with an estimated yield
of 81, 100000 from the sales tax with
no exemptions this year and an &C
tual yield of $40, 181 900 last year. On
the basis of these figures, the State
will lose $2,600O0O in revenue from
the sales tax the first year and ST.
100000 the second as a result of the
restoration of the exemptions on
flour, sugar, salt, lard, butter, milk,
molasses and meal-the same "basic
foods" which were exempted from
1888 to 1895.
Although it is admitted by the
spokesman for the merchants of the
State that they would rather have a
flat two per cent sales tax than a
three per cent sales tax with exemp-
tons and their claims that such two
per cent sales tax would bring in as
much revenue as a three per cent tax

LIFE AND HOPE
Cincinnati Enquirer)

Well known is the story of the official in the United States Patent Office early this century saying that there nothing left invent His attitude apparently has
 good deal to do with the philosophy of suicide in gen era the feeling that life has led up blind alley.
 Significantly, the suicide death in the United
 States is lowest during the periods of reconstruction not necessarily the lowest when times are at their best Estimates compiled in 100 American cities by Frederick E. Hoffman, consulting statistcian as published in the Spectator magazine, reveal that the suicide rate last year was less than for any year during the boom par iod of the late Actually last years rate was exactly the that for the year 1942
 Since this century began, the suicide rate was the least during 1918, l919 and 1920 whe Amercl was a.
 and the nation entered of reconstruetisn h 1s20 the suicide death rate 119 per 100000 in hz5-s the 1eo selected cities The rate then climb ed to l51 n 1928 and 1929 and to be expected reHecd the acute economic distress 1892 with rate of 2lS Then the rate began drsp: 1s1 in I933 1zs in 1884, 162 in 1885. and 1s7 1886 Last years rate was the lowest for during the twentieth century eept during the war and postwar period
 The inference to be drawn from the statistics is that people temper, mentally disposed to suicide are likely to stay their hands when it appears there's some thing mure to be done in the world The old saving Where there's life there's hope seems also to apply the other around: Where there's hope there's life
