Elimination of present Federal in
come taxes on married couples
making less than $4,000 and on
single persons earning less than
81 900 was urged today by Philip
Murray, C. I. o. president, in advo-
eating that new revenue be obtained
from high individual incomes,
estates and growing corporation
profits"
The proposal was in sharp con-
trast to recommendations made
earlier in the day by the American
Farm Bureau Federation that pres
ent income tax exemptions of $4,000
for married couples be cut to $1,000
and for single persons from the
present $500 to $500. The fedora
ton also suggested a flexible in
come tax system designed to offset
potential inflationary effects of the
defense spending program.
Mr.. Murray's statement was pre-
pared for presentation by Ralph
Hetzel, C. I. o. research director

THOUGHTS

It is now September and am sitting at Washington Park; beautiful peace you well remember At this splendid time of year. can see many trees Growing here and there. There is lovely breeze And everything Is fair. see so many people, Men and women, girls and boys; The scene Is very restful With not too much noise Some are sitting on the ground, Others in a chair. They come from all around To breathe this splendid air. Some living very near These lovely scenes of oufS I come here every year. Although living far away. But now tarry for time To look at that great big oak, Where those faithful men were killed By nghtnings fatal stroke. Such thoughts are sad I know, And tell of those we loved But wherever we may go Let's hope to meet above.

FaIa Sits In On So Many Conferences That
 He's Beginning To LOOK Like Statesman!
Ry ELEANOR RAGSDALE

NEA Service Staff Correspondent
 washington, Sept. 1T-His whole name is Murray of Falahi1 - Fala for short.
 He shares adventures and valets with the President of the United States. But for a that he's naught but @ wee bit O e black Scotty, named for bold, Scottish ancestor, way back on President Roosevelt's family tree, known as Murray the Outlaw of Falahill.
 Comes daybreak into the Presi- dents bedroom at the White House or Hyde Park or through the port hole of a ships cabin and there's Fala curled on the rug, peering out from under his shaggy brows to see if '"The Chief as any good clans man would call him-is awake for morning greetings.
 For this lively little dog who popped Into the llmelight a few weeks ago when he sat in on the Roosevelt Churc hill sea-parley right at his chiefs feet, is the con- Stant companion of the President | at his office or on trips. His shag- gy ears have listened to executive conferences and state secrets with out a betraying twitch.
 Tn fact, close observers believe they note that at times Fala him. self, after months of association with national and international big wigs, now takes on a bit of the sol- emn dignity of 8 statesman.
 NO SISSY STUFF
 FOR THIS FALA
 Fala has c special fenced-in com- pound off the Executive offices where he can stretch his legs and get a breath of air when the going inside gets too tiresome or tense. For longer runs he usually goes on a leash or under the watchful eye of & secret service guard or his special pal, dignified Prettyman, the Presi- dents colored valet.
 Prettyman, too, sees that Fala is brushed and bathed as befits a White House princeling. But forum ately he doesn't try any of that sissy stuff like eau de cologne or plaid waiSt.coatS. Not that Fala doesn't have a wardrobe. He might have given Bundles for Britain" some stiff competition, judging by the number of sweaters and jackets that have been knitted for him. But, quite frankly, he never wears 'ern.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1941-09-17

Fala gets just one meal a day fresh meat and vegetables all mixed up, and given to him each evening by the Presidents own hand. Maybe he gets a dog biscuit or two during the day when he runs through his simple bag of tri, ,cks, shaking hands, begging, speaking or jumping as
