TAKE YOUR CHOICE

The best argument in favor of the
strictest possible reduction in non-defense
government spending is found in the new
tax bill. That bill will reach down into in
come brackets never touched before by di-
rect federal taxation. 1t greatly increases
taxes in all brackets, and on all industries
and individuals It is the stiffest tax bill in
American history Yet it will produce less
than $4,000, 600, 900 additional a year
and our arms spending alone, according to
estimates, will soon reach $4,000, 600, 900
year!
There is but one way this country can
be saved from burden of debt and taxa
ton that would ruin us as surely as would
military defeat. That way is by cutting
every non-defense item in the budget to the
absolute bone Government must end its
competitive program against highly-taxed
private business. ON which it depends for
the bulk of its tax revenue. Government in
banking, in the electric power field, in real
estate. IN farming. and scores of other
projects, is simply destroying its future
source of tax revenue.
Either we will maintain the old Amer
lean system of private enterprise, or in
another decade, at the pace we are travel
ing, we will wind up under a program of
state socialism which will parallel the Hit
Ter regime.

more.
Although the county in recent years
has done little toward the support of the
health unit, there is no question but that
the health program here should be ex-
banded, rather than decreased in scope.
Comptroller Lee settled the question for the
county by simply looping off the half-mill
which was to have gone for the continual
ton of Dr. Parramore's work.
The doctor, in addition to his other
duties. has been handed an important as
signment in recent months through the
necessity for greatly increased investiga-
ton and treatment of venereal cases. That
definitely is defense item here and in view
of the alarming rate of disability in army
draftees it would appear that almost any
kind of health work falls in that category,
as well.

coming to a halt because of Lees action,
but the fate of the doctors appropriation is
an indication of the cold manner in which
Lee has been empowered to disseet county
budgets
As far as that power goes, Monroe
citizens who are contemplating changes in
he budget might as well realize that Lee
IS virtually all-power.
The commissioners, for instance. could
not put the health service back in the bud
~ct just by arranging the balance different
y and shaving a little here and there off
other items. Lee said no health money, and
unless he changes his mind, there is no
authority that can make it possible for the
county to provide funds for that purpose.
The first effects of the eomptroller's
action already have been felt here, as we
have cataIogued them, but there will be
many more. The commissioners are in for
a long, hard pull and they will not be made
happier by the fact that the state board of
education gave the tentative school budget
a far kinder treatment than Lee gave
theirs.

ALREADY BROKEN" RUSSIA FIGHTS

Adolf Hitler recently told the German
people that Russia sis already broken and
will never rise again" He assured them
that ''the available mass of munitions"
would conquer any adversary.
! It is interesting to report that the Ger
man Fuehrer, in his eulogy of Nazi soldiers
revealed that there are between five million
and six million troops in Russia. This seems
to be a rather large army to take care of a
nation already broken
That the battle in Russia is proceeding
upon a scale never before equalled in the
world seems established. 1t is impossible to
correctly estimate the losses suffered by
either side Berlin reports the capture and
destruction of thousands of planes, tanks
and guns. Moscow counters with similar
claims as to German losses.
While it is impossible to estimate ex-
act losses, it is apparent, from both state
ments, that each side is losing heavily in
material and men.

Wisdom of The
Talmud
BY MORRIS KRAMER

ut is forbidden to an Israelite
to bear hatred toward his neigh
Dor. Because of the hatred of his
brethren for Joseph, our fore
fathers were exiled in Egypt,
where finally they became en-
shaved. And so our Rabbits taught:
1t is written: Thou shalt not
hate thy brother; meaning also
thou shalt not injure him, thou
shalt not revile him, thou shalt
not ill-use him. All those things
the Law demands. Nay, more.
1t is added, 'in thy heart; whence
follows that we may not carry
hatred concealed within our bos-
ON, even when it results in no ex-
ternal act. In respect to punish
ment, the sin of hatred stands on
the same level with the three chief
sins, idolatry, immortality, and the
shedding of blood. Because Of
these sins the first Temple was
destroyed. But why was the Sec
ond Temple destroyed? We know
quite certainly that at that time
the Holy Law was observed and
works of piety were done. But a
boundless hatred ragged between
the various parties, even against
those who were quite spotless in
morality and in the Law. Only
those that openly break the laws
may one hate; that is to say, one
may endeavor to procure their
punishment according to the Law,
nothing further. But let the ac-
cuser always remember the earn
est warning of our teachers: Three
men are hateful to the Lord:
1. He that speaks other than
he thinks;
2. He that is able to bear wit
ness in favor of another, and fails
to do so;
8. He that appears as a single
witness and accuser of a fellow
man (since the law has laid down
the rule that only two witnesses
may do SOL"
