THIS WE NEED FOR
 HEALTH AND SAFETY
 A stretch in federal prison and maybe 6 trifllng fine Is indeed an absurd penalty for the despicaole crime of income tax evasion. Peo- pie who gqueal about high taxes and avail themselves of any op- portunity to evade paying their lust rates are nearly always thrice- blessed, SO far as wealth IS con. cerned, thanks to the privilege Of living in this country, and that IS what makes their attitude so con" temptible.
 Current news item refers to the appeal made by Q tobacco naanu. facturer, in hearing by Q con. gressIonal committee, that he would not kick if they took his shirt oil his back = as long as they treated the other fellows the same way, and he suggested substantial lev. les against sugar and coffee aS Q step fin that direction.
 Apparently no one ventured to object that sugar and coffee do not UetUItk III kkbG NavSSOAy VI A9ANA eSS in this country. Sugar and coffee are generally included with the necessities of life in America. It would be highly incongruous and unethical to tax sugar and coffee more than the barest minimum If ct all. Both sugar and coffee are im- portant items in maintaining the national physical and mental health and morale. Tobacco and alcohol are not only unnecessary but in toe many instances harmful to morale.
 Let us impose tax of at least 100 per cent on tobacco and a tax of a' least 1000 per cent on alcoholic bev. erages and liquors. Such taxes would be for the good of the country, 1T time or war or in time of peace.
 one might think these taxes are paid by the tobacco manufacturers lOf course the consumer pays all taxes, and the consumers interest t therefore tantamount, even though legislative bodies seem unmindful oi 1t.
 Tobacco and alcohol are luxuriei and even without considering theii demoralizing potentialities they should be heavily taxed out of al proportion with taxes on necessities

Some days l have used more than five grains. Understand from my physician that its effect Is harmless quantity of liquid. (R. l.. K.)

Eyes called "black" have most pigment; brown" or "hazel eyes have less; "gray" or green" eyes still less pigment; "blue" eyes least of all.
