REAL OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
COOPERATION

The food stamp plan under which certain basic
plus commodities held by the Federal dis
rbuted to persons relief has apparently passed the
experimental period 1t has been rapidly extended and is
in effect in most of the country According to
authorities it has to be of the cheapest
sble of afording government assistance to the
INDECENT.
On top of that, the plan is excellent example of
the kind of cooperation private industry offers the
ernment when worthwhile and necessary project in
voved.
The surplus foods have been entirely distributed by
private retailers The taxpayers have not been forced to
spend large of to establish government owned
and operated distribution centers Both the chains and
the independents have used their established proven
facilities to the utmost They have worked with govern
ment in formulating and enforcing stringent rules design
ed to prevent the eiefers from exchanging their stamps
for cash alcoholic beverages otherwise abusing the
plan Only insignificant handful of where stores
have violated regulations have to light.
There is vast difference between government COM
petition with businessand cooperation with
business The food stamp plan illustrates that difference
1t unquesonaby has itself TO be the most efficient
and least costly way of distributing surpluses without
disturbing normal trade and production processes. It
represents relief administration its bes-and govern
ment-business relationship of the soundest kind.

GREATEST ISSUE LIVING VOTERS
EVER FACED

The two great political parties of the United States
have made their choice of presidential candidates
Only Mr. Roosevelt speak with full authority IN
defense of New Deal activities and purposes And only
Mr. Willke among the opposition, has brought to bear
on the New Deal criticism which has been uniformly
pointed intelligent, soundly reasoned, and based on
philosophical rather than partisan principles
There can be question but what the New Deal has
vastly broadened the powers of government over the
people-over individuals and industries alike That the
New Deals basic philosophy-a centralized government
in Washington exerting its influence almost every
phase of life 1t is excatly this which Mr. Wkie opposes
"a Jefersonian in tradition it his thesis that the State
is bascay the enemy individual freedom and that the
least possible the best possible government
for the governed.
Next November the people will determine whether
or not the rend of the last eight years. with government
grown great and powerful and costly beyond all peace

turn to the tradition of liberal localized and

A Matter Of
Consuming Interest

Hidden taxes" don't bother the
average American very greatly. He
may suffer annoyance for a frac-
ton of a second when he has to
tumble for old pennies to take
care of the concealed tax in a pack
of cigarettes or the price OF g.
movie ticket. But by the large
we're a good-natured people, will
ing to take a lot in our stride.
So we're inclined to lose track
of the manner in which taxes eat
into family income. And when we
find out the true facts of the case,
as developed in a survey made by
one industrial magazine in a typi-
cal American community, we ma
tural.y are surprised-to put it
mildly.

observation: LET be guard against the building OF

we are talking about defense and not going to war inns
is the time for clear thinking rather than emotional think

The standard polls indicate that while the American
people are almost unanimously in favor OF adequate pre-
paredness, they also overwhelmingly opposed Go
beigerent participation in the European slaughter.

of the community in order to find
out how much of each dollar spent
was accounted for by taxes.
10 cents of each dollar spent for
milk and dairy products went for

In the case of movie tickets or
electricity, the figure was II cents
In case of furniture, 13 cents.
In the case of new car or the
telephone bill Is cents.
That was the situation before
