ANOTHER KIND OF
DEFENSE TAX

Imperial Valley folk, along with those
of all other parts of the United States,
are already paying and will continue to
pay another kind of defense taN-onc
that not even the economists label as a
tax
1t is represented by the rising cost of
foodstuffs.
When congress considers its new tax
bill, this is an item that should be given
recognition. 1t should be taken into con-
sideration as an important factor IN the
ability of those in the lower economic
groups to pay income taxes.
An income tax represents a certain
percentage of a persons earnings after
deductions for dependents and other
items.
A rise i'm food prices represents per
centage of eVeryOne'S income, with no
deductions allowed
If food prices rise ten per cent, it
means ten per cent more taken out OF
the budget of every family in America.
1t means that the money must be divert
ed from other channels, or there must
be more income.
In theory. income tax exemptions are
allowed during normal times on what
supposedly costs to support family.
If that theory were carried out IN times
such as these, the rising cost of food
Siul1S WOuiu JUSTLY Il higher llie'li
a lower exemption schedule-because it
certainly costs more to live these days.
Since these are not normal times, and
since nobody objects to carrying his
share of the extra burden necessary to
make this nation safe and strong, the
most we can do is that congress recog-
nize that the sting of higher prices is
increasingly sharp as the individuals
earnings grow less. In other words, the
fellow who is just making enough to live
on under higher prices for the necessi-
ties of life cannot carry as large snare
of the tax load IS the man whose income
allows him margin over and above
necessities.
The people are not going to tolerate
higher taxes, higher living costs and
greater scarcity unless two things are
done, and the second of these should be
done Immediately:
/. Distribute the tax load as nearly
as possible according to ability to pay.
2. Cut all non-defense government eX-
penses to the bone so that we will not be
undergoing hardship to support unneces-
sary, nonessential parasites within our
government.

lation, it will probably be necessary
for the president to declare a ma
tional emergency, instead of the eX-
iSting limited emergency. Then will
come coordination of all the scat
tered and independent agencies
having a part of this program today.
Under a proposed Division of Ci-
william Defense" would come the
work of the Division of State and
Local Cooperation now under the
direction of Frank Bane, health
and medical work, welfare work of
private agencies like Red Cross, the
home guard the air raid spoilers,
the volunteer fire putter-outers.
First steps to organize civilian de-
fense work in every community are
already under way. The War De-
partment Civil Defense branch has
written a series of booklets on air
raid protection. protective construc-
ton, fire protection, medical care,
air raid warnings and gas defense.
These will be distributed and it will
then be up to every local communi-
ty to arrange for its own safety,
if it wants to.

YOU CAN'T HAVE
FUN IN RUSSIA
(Tulare Times)

CIulare Times)
The latest published Soviet edict would
be funny-if only it weren't so inordi-
nately cruel.
Russians are having too much fun
and spending too much money" says the
decree. Celebrations and anniversaries
constitute very unhealthy practice, and
must be sharply restricted"
By order of the Council of the Peoples
Commissars and the Central Committee
of the Communist party, celebration of
organizations anniversaries henceforth
will be limited to the Goth, 50th and Tooth
years. Only persons who "have render
ed special services to the "State" may
celebrate their birthdays: they may Gel
citrate only their 50th, Goth and 18th
and then only with the Communist party
approval of expenses.
In America recreation is an important
part Of everybody's life Perhaps the
American businessman is so high power
ed because he plays little, too. Prob
ably there's more money spent having
fun here than in any other pursuit. And
undoubtedly the recreation business in
all its categores-from the sale of fami-
ly cars to vacation trips to far places,
from the sale of candy and theatre tick
cts and party food 10 clothes and fish
ing tackle and bleacher seats is the
biggest business existent.

TIE NUTRITION FRONT
IN AMERICA
Nevada State JournaD

Nevada State IournaD
Each day brings more evidence that
Americans are becoming increasingly nu-
triton conscious. Reports from England
on the efficacy of vitamin pills to
strengthen nerve resistance to the war,
frequent pleas by medical and dietary
experts in this country who urge bal
anced diets and the Presidents recent
announcement that he was calling three
day nutrition conference in Washington
this month, are signs of food value
aWareneSS.
The latest advice ON the matter is
given by DR.. Russell NJ Wilder of the
Mayo Clinic who is the nutritional ex-
pert of the National Research Council.
He says that millions of Americans are
living below the nutrition border line
He does not mean they do not get enough
to eat, but he points out that they do
no consume enough proper food to get
the right vitamin supply.
The average American diet, for eX-
ample, contains only about q third as
much thiamin (vitamin BID as in Civil
War times, and a Mayo Clinic experiment
clearly showed that deficiency of this
substance may lead to an individuals
moroseness, irritability, mental depres-
sion, and even physical slovenliness.
Perhaps no group of men is under
heavier nervous tension today than the
Royal Air Force. Some of its members
have had dreadful breakdowns, although
nervous crackups by no means are unus-
ual in any warning organization, and in
these times of bombing attacks on civil
ians the malady attacks a broader field
than in previous wars. But with parti-
cular reference to the air force the use
of concentrated thiamin has had measur-
able success as a nerve stabilizer.
Because it is difficult to make persons
take pills, DR.. Wilder suggests the en-
richment of foods with desired vitamins
while they are being processed. He also
urges the wider distribution of citrus
fruits and tomatoes. and he sings the
praises of a 'cocktail' composed of skin
med milk and sugar.

Fuehrer Ignores
Critical Items in
Promises to Nazis
BY y. w. L. MASON
United Press War Expert

When Hitler in his address Sum
day declared Germany and her allies
represent military power superior
to any possible combination in the
world, he was canouflaging the
facts. Any possible combination
must include naval strength as well
as land power whereas it seem5Ap-
parent that the fuehrer sought to
conflne comparison of fighting
efficiency TO numbers of soldiers
and their equipment.
He did not mention air strength
and there again he CLOSED over one
oil the major conditions of the fu-
tlfe OF the war. 1t is probable that
heXt year the British output of
ailplanes plus the American pro-
ductlon will exceed Germany's pro-
ductlve capacity.
Since the fuehrer referred to the
German equipment for next year,
1t must be assumed that he has HiS-
carded his former conviction that
Germany will be able to win the
war this year. Thus, any possible
Cui'lbAidulOil OF power against Ger
many will have TO take into con-
sideratlon next year as we'll as TIE
present annual period in estimating
the trend of hoStiliticS
Apart from any comparison Of air
strength, however, which might be
open to German argument, it is on
the naval issue that Hitlers claim
of fighting superiority shows fnh-
damental weakness. If the fuehrer
believed the battle of the Atlantic
surely would be won this year, then
there would have been no need for
him to have puzzled the German
peoples memory by referring to
preparations for improving equip
ment for next year.
Imperial Valley press., 1941-05-05

WASHINGTON, May - The
American people still don't think
this war is real, or that it's coming
over on this side of the ocean.
No more significant proof of that
statement could be asked for than
is furnished by the refusal of Con-
gress to pass a bill authorizing an
experimental blackout for the Dis
trict of Columbia. The reason fol-
the defeat was simply that the con-
gressmen didn't believe the country
should be scared. didn't believe that
anyone in the United States proper
should feel that anyone in the Dis
trict of Columbia was at all jittery
about anything, although there
isn't an air raid shelter in the city
and the few anti-aircraft guns are
old style and in the hands of the
national guard.
The defense of Washington is
right where it was in the 1790's
when the French Major L'Enfant
planned the city so that the Capitol
and the White House could be sur
rounded with cannon to fire down
the boulevards in all directions at
anyone so bold and foolhardy as to
dare an assault.

BERLIN, May CUP) - Adolf
Hitler left the German people-anc
Germany's enemies-in ignorance OF
his next war moves today.
In his fourth speech to the Naz
Reichstag since the war started
ne reviewed the Balkan triumph
and reused ringing cheers with his
statement that nothing is impos-
sible to the German soldier.
He referred to the the demo-
cratic agitators of a country to
which the German people has never
done any harm. presumably the
United States, and said their fear
that Germany intended to do harm
to that country lis nothing but an
absurd lie.
He assured his uniformed Reich
stag auditors that he looked into
the future with perfect tranquility
and the greatest confidence.
He said that the German Reich
and its allies represent in military
and economic and, above all, moral
respects, a force which is superior
TO any possible coalition in the
world
But what interested diplomats
was that where as in recent speech
es he had flatly promised Germany
a definite victory over Great Brit
aip this year, in his speech last
night he promised the army better
weapons next year.

AT LAST THE ARMY
RECOGNIZES MERIT

1t came as a shock to lot of people
recently to read that the L. S. army is
going to choose its colonels, at least dur
ing the balance of the emergency, from
among the lists of majors and lieutenant
colonels on basis of merit instead OF on
a basis of length-of-service.
1t was a shock because most people
unfamiliar with army practices have as
sumed all along that high rank in
the army was a reflection of merit-not
merely an indication of the number of
years served.
The truth is that the army has clung
to the most archaic system in the world
of selecting its high officers. Like the
prehistoric tribes, it has been governed
by council Of elders" Their minds
were set in the ways of the past. No
matter what genius a younger man might
display, he had no place among them
until the years had elected HIM to the
council.
Perhaps that is why it took us so long
officially to recognize that warfare, too,
could be modernized. Perhaps that is
why Billy Mitchell, of marine corps fame,
was practically drummed out of service
for the suggestion that airplaneS were
important to an army.

Baghdad Airport
Target of British
Bombers in Raid
By NED RUSSELL

LONDON, May 5. UP)-Heavy
British air raids on the Baghdad
airport, occupation Of key points
at Basra and announcement that
the ousted regent Emir Abdul Illah,
intended to try to overthrow the
Rashid Ali AL Gallant regime indi-
Gated an improved military situa
ton in Iraq today.
But to offset any undue optimism,
there were reports that the Iraqi
had cut the Mosul OF, pipe line and
a belief among military experts that
unless the Rashid Ali regime could
be crushed quickly Germany would
be compelled to go to its aid.
A Cairo communiquc of the Royal
air force told of a second heavy
British raid on Baghdad's Moascar
Rashid airdrome yesterday. Severe
damage was done to alrdrome build
ings and workshops and at least 90
Iraqi aircraft were put out of ac-
ton, the communiquc said.
Two Iraqi planes which tried to
interfere were Shot down, it was
asserted.
The war office here announced
that British forces had occupied tho
airport, dock area and power sta
ton at BaSra Friday after Iraqi
authorities had ignored an ulti-I
matum to withdraw.
According to the Cairo commu-
nique, British planes bombed an
armored train and forced it to turn
back and in raids on Iraqi gun
positions, mechanical units and
troop concentrations outside Hab-
baniya airdrome, west of Baghdad
did severe damage.
