INCREDIBLE-BUT TRUE

"Incredible-but true" is the best
description that can be applied to
the latest chain tax measure pro-
posed in Congress.
The bill provides for a Federal
chain store tax ranging up to $1,000
a store for systems operating more
than 500 outlets. This may seem
bad enough-but 1t is further pro-
vided that the taxes are to be null
tiplied by the number Of states, in
cluding the District OF Columbia. in
which any chain operates!
Passage of such a bill, Of course,
would mean complete and swift de-
struction of all chains. For exam
pie, one large chain system would
be taxed $4,000 per store for all
outlets in excess OF 500. Business
Week says that the total tax that
would be paid by the largest chain
food system would, come to s6OO.OOO.-
900 a year-and for a large variety
system, $90,OO0.OO0 a year! obvi-
ously, 1t would be impossible to pay
these taxes,
II there ever was an example OF
the IdCl ludt the pUWCt " tdA 10
the power to destroy this is It: And
is the taxing power being used, In
this proposal, to destroy something
that is inimical to the public well
fareg Hardly. A few years ago
the Federal Trade Commission re-
ported, after a long investigation,
that the chains. far from destroying
independent stores, do only abolt 20
per cent of Americas total retail
trade. Through consumer-producer
campaigns, the organized chains
have performed yeoman services for
agriculture. In brief. they aid every !
element In our national life.
No one expects that the pending |
MEASURE will pass In Its present ex-
treme form. But the mere fact that
It has been seriously introduced
shows, better than argument, how
necessary It is for the consuming
public TO stay awake and see to It
that it's rights are prOtected-lest
the politicians further legislate the
cost-of-living into the stratosphere.

A SCIENTIFIC ATTITUDE
By Janette stevenson Murray

BY Janette Stevenson Murray
The fourth grade pupils had just
been dismissed. AS Jean Marshall
went out. she seized the hand of
Betty Crew and pinched It with all
her might. Shocked and physically
hurt, Betty ran home crying. Her
mother called Mrs. Marshall on the
phone and angrily informed her Of
jeans action.
Now mothers instinctively side
with their own children, but Mrs.
Marshall belonged to study group
where there was a frank discussion
of children's faults and where the
old idea that ones child "can do no
wrong" had been superseded by a
more scientific attitude.
Naturally, Mrs. Marshall was
shocked at Jeans action but collect
ed herself enough to say she deep
ly regretted such behaviour on her
daughters part, that she did not un-
derstand It and that she would talk
to Jean, who was not home yet, and
call back to see If they could do any
thing toward making the matter
right.
Jean, when questioned, was sorry
for having given in to such a bad
impulse. The child said she had
nothing against Betty but was sud
denly seized with a wild desire TO
pinch, just TO see how 1t would
seem. Now. Jean began to cry. Her
mother was taking such a grave
view of the affair.
Don't cry, JEAN" said Mrs. Mar
shall, I'VE have to think how to
make amends" She studied her lit
tie daughter thOughtfully. Suppose
| call up Betty's mother and explain
how you did 1t and how wrong we
think it was and say you would like
to apologize II Betty could come to-
the phOne-Or what do you want to
io?"
"Oh. I'd like to do that. Mother"
and Jean dried her tears.
Mrs. Crew was disarmed. decided
ly placated by Mrs. Marshall's ready
acknowledgment of her daughters
fault. Yes, she would call Betty at
once.
Betty" said Jean, 'I'm sorry and
ashamed that l pinched your hand.
Will you forgive me? I'll never do
it again. Won't you tell your mo-
ther what I've said? I'll hold the
wire"
After a few moments. ats all
right, Jean," came over the line
from Betty.
And so the trouble was over. With
the AFFAIR settled promptly and of her
mind. Betty held no grudge. AS for
Jean. she promised her mother new
er to. do such a thing again, and
she never did. At once she got out
her best dolls dress to take to
school to give Betty the next day.
for she knew it would fit one Of Bet !
tvs prettiest dolls. Then she ran
rappily out of doors to play.
1t would have been so easy
through weak handling on Mrs.
Marshall's part to have let this
chance fault of a normal. we'll
meaning child cause lasting unhap-
piness for both girls; but, as we
have seen, Mrs. Marshall settled the
affair in a straightforward way. She
admitted her child's fault at once
and then stood by, loyalty, helping
lean to make amends.

ARsONIsTs @ON THE RUN"

The arsonist is ION the run" in
the United States. The toll of life
and property destroyed by this de-
spicable crime is on the down
grade. That didn't just happen-it is
the result of decades of unremitting
work by the stock fire insurance in
dustry.
In 1866 il was estimated that from
so to rs per cent of the losses paid by
many stock Iire insurance companies
were the result of arson. Today, es-
Inmates place arson fires at about 10
per cent. This means that tens of
millions of dollars Of property values
are being saved annually that would
otherwise be destroyed, and that fire
insurance premium rates are at far
lower levels than would be possible
il the former high arson rate OBJ
tanned. Most important of all, it
means that q tremendous saving in
lives has been accomplished-the
best authorities state that one death
occurs for every $25,000 of fire loss.
TheNatfohaf Board .of sFf7'z Unders.
writer's has fought arson by main
tanning a special bureau for that pur-
pose. Whenever a suspicious fire oc-
ours, immediate expert assistance is
offered to local investigating and
prosecuting authorities, and in a
very high percentage of cases the
criminals are swiftly brought to jus
tice. Even where professional ar
sonists manage to operate without
punishment for many years, arson
investigators keep on their trail
and in the long run. justice usually
triumphs. The average person little
realizes the public service being rem
dered by the stock fire insurance in
duafry

MILESTONES TOWARD COM.
MUNISMl

Writing in the New York Sun.
Ernest r. Abrams, who was employ
ed by that paper to do series OF
feature articles on the TVA, says:
'sThe illusion Of honesty with which
the iva surrounds itself is large
" disillusion; it lays a claim to
respect It does not warrant. It's
tactics, if pursued by a private cor
poration, would Immediately call for
drastic investigation by some ruin
less Federal body"
These are strong words. At the
close of the 1897 fiscal year, the TVA
had in operation reVenue-producing
electric properties which had cost
the taxpayers almost $130,00O,OOO.
No purposes has ever been made
despite statutory requirements. The
IVA can write off as much OF its
investment as it wants, to purposes
other than power production-thus,
by trick bookkeeping, presenting
an entirely erroneous impression OF
what It really costs to generate ana
distribute electricity.
In its dealings with private utili-
ties in the Southwest-the utilities
faced with cut-throat competition
from this tax subsidized, socialistic
experiment-it has pursued a policy
that, according to many observers,
amounts to confiscation Of property.
II has said, in effect, that It will
buy PARTS of the private utilities at
its own price-or drive the COM
panies to the wall by duplicating
power facilities with public funds.
II has steadfastly refused offers
made by the private concerns to sell
their properties at a price to be de-
termined by detached and unpre-
judiced board. IL
All the truth about the TVA isn't
vet knownLas the growing demand
for a fair investigation of the Au-
thority testifies. To quote Mr..
Abrams again, as the IVA the
