Apprehension

We've known US such little while
But you have felt so free
To talk of girls who knew before.
You've told so much to me.
How you, at first thought each was
true .-~., ..s
The traits which you admired
And then Of little things which made
You change;-and you grew tired.
Right now. you see no fault in me;
And Oh, love you soi
l wonder II such bliss can last;
Or must it-some day-go?
You hold me close; - feel your
lips. e.f ,rt
In fear, / breathe n prayer.
Could these sweet lips-some time
some place
Discuss our love affair?

A JOB KILLER

There is an almost unanimous
feeling among business men, tax ex
perts and economists that the Fed
eral Undistributed Earnings Tax, fl
its present form, is a definite bar.
rier to Industrial development-and
that its revision at this session oi
Congress would act as an aggressive
spur to business in general.
AS now constituted, the tax makes
1t next to impossible for many cor
porations to create adequate cash
surpluses as protection against pos
sible future drops in the business
cycle. Equally serious, the tax pre-
vents many corporations from pur-
chasing new equipment and machin-
cry and expanding their plants, for
they would be heavily taxed on such
expenditures as "surplus'-thus re-
tarding employment, reducing pro-
duction, and depriving all units OF
government of the normal tax reve-
nue. that follows Industrial expan-
sion and spending.
Congressman Emanuel Celler of
New York recently introduced
House bill offering series OF major
amendments to the tax. Under his
bill, corporations would be permitted
credits for improvements to real
property, the purchase of physical
equipment, and the expansion or re-
placement of their productive facili-
lies. They would likewise be allowed
credits for money paid within the
taxable year In discharge OF debts,
and would be allowed to distribute
up TO 25 per cent Of their adjusted |
net income within 80 days following |
the close of the taxable year.
Commenting on his bill. Represen-
tative Celler says: "0ur present sur
tax on undistributed earnings is a
thorn in the side of business, both
big and little. II impedes progress,
slows recovery, blocks reemploy-
ment, and thus hurts the farmer and
the city dweller alike. ! hold no
brief for any particular corporation.
Be It remembered, however, that
capital usually functions In the cor
porate form. Be 1t remembered, fur
ther, that labor cannot function
without capital and capital cannot
function without labor. Therefore.
when you unduly strike at corpora
tions. you eventually strike at Ia
bor." |
( Senator Robinson, Senator Harri-
son and other leaders have spoken
IN favor OF modification of the tax.
A bill, such as Representative Cell
IRIS. to effect this, should be given
he sariiest possible consideration. c

GETTING USED TO
HARRY'S TEASING
By Janette Stevenson Murray

Mrs. Wood hurriedly rolled out thu
piecrust. In an hour the men woult
be in from the fields. Just then
four-year-old Martha ran in crying
Buddy says he's going to cut of
my dolly's curls!"
He's only joking; don't bother
me. Run away. that's dear!" Mrs
Wood gave Martha little push and
turned to her cousin Ada who worked
In an insurance office and was spend
ing her vacation ON the farm
"Buddy's such a tease. Martie will
Just have to learn to pay no atten-

That night after the work was
done, the two women rested on the
porch.

exclaimed. II never liked them"
