THERE is no other relation
l. ship between the people and
the government which has Gre
ated as much nasty feeling as
the operation of the income tax.
The arbitrary figure OF $500
deductible for each dependent is
reasonable only in the case OF
families living modestly, II not
in poverty, under one roof.
II is not sufficient for the sup
port of an aged parent. for ex-
ample, living in his or her own
quarters, such as an apartment
or dwelling house. and II makes
people mad 20 De told that this
sum is considered sufficient for
a decent standard for their
parents. but represents squalor
in the case OF the relief client.
as, of course, it does.
In THE case of a dependent
Il child the allowance stops at
the age OF 1S which. in normal
times. and again citing the New
Deals own ideas on education
and youth. is just the time when
the youngsters costs 90 up.
In this there has been a dirty
discrimination against the per-
son of sufficient talent. dill
gence and, or. luck TO earn a
tax-bearing income.
At Is, his kids are deemed to
be grown and fully educated
and able to shift for themselves.
But the children OF citizens in
the sub-taxable brackets are
held 10 be more or less helpless
and in need Of public assistance
for their education 10 the age
OF IS.
Again. the revenue act has
been arbitrarily dishonest. cyni-
cal and brutal in disallowing
any deduction for the support
of a grown but wholly de-
pendent relative beyond the age
of 1S but short of old age. un-
less that individual is helpless
from illness or other physical
affliction.
For example. an adult over
1S of sound health who is a
charge on the income and con-
science of a taxpayer because
of unemployment is not recog-
nized aS a deDendent
Countless individuals in this
situation received full support
or assistance from relatives
during the long depression but
no allowance was made, pre-
sumably on the theory that
their more fortunate kin should
have sent them 10 the bread
line to live at government
expense.
IF THERE is anything in the
L principleethat well-doing in
dividual should take care of his
own people in hard luck. and in
the principle that he deserves a
deduction for easing to this i'm
portant extent the public cost
and the moral loss from mass
public dependency. then the AL
lowance should have been made
in all such cases, regardless Of
the recipients health.
1t has been a queer idea Of
our Congress. and of the New
Deal, that the income taxpay-
ers. minority but embracing
that entire element known as
the middle class and the most
reliable producers of public rev.
enue, deserve nothing better
than the worst OF il all the time
and needn't be dealt with on
terms of common honesty.
IL we are so hard up that tha
allowance must be cut to $500
or $50 we ought to abolish the
fake entirely.
IL would he futile TO propose
that. instead. we turn square,
establish a rate consistent with
the truth. and extend the allow
able field of dependency to in
clude all real dependents.

American guards and ground
crews bound for Natal and other
points of Brazil will no longer be
compelled to go to their stations in
civilian clothes nor will they have
to wait for their weapons to catch
up with them later, disguised as
baggage and technical instruments.
Brazil's new status has been
greeted with considerable satisfac-
ton in official Washington Para
doxically enough, however, the dec
laration Of war did not create the
stir 1t might have, had Brazil not
already shown full measure of
cooperation. even if some of it had
to be disguised beneath diplomatic
face saving.
After the welcoming speeches and
the appropriate bows had been
made to the new member OF the
United Nations, the analysis of the
net result in Brazil's declaration
boiled down to several practical
considerations.
Free Hand on QuisIings.
One result is, of course, the fact
that President Getulio Vargas can
now handle fifth columnists and
doubtful aliens without gloves
Another important result will be
the end Of those subterfuges which
had to be employed in certain
phases OF Brazilian-American CO.
operation. Though the Nazis knew
as we'll as the Americans and the
Brazilians that ground crews and
guards were being sent to bolster
the Brazilian defenses against a
| possible surprise attack from across
the Atlantic. Brazil's non -belliger-
ency demanded an appearance of
concealment. Brazil had her share
Of die-hard neutrals and ISOLATION
lists. The Vargas administration
was in much the same position as
the Roosevelt administration before
Pearl Harbor.
Brazil's United Nations sympa-
thies and non -belligerent status led
to some complicated diplomatic ma
| neuvers.
American naval observers in Rio
de Janeiro had in their possession
early in 194l, in the form of close
to 900 letters, clear evidence that
the Nazis and the Italians had
plans to sabotage their ships tied
up in Brazilian ports
The American officers urged the
Navy Department in Washington
to induce the Brazilian government
to act. The Navy Department
turned the matter over to the State
Department where such questions
are handled in peacetime. The State
Department, with a larger consider
alton of Latin American relations
in view, went about the matter in
diplomatic" way. Negotiations
dragged on.
Italians Were Artistic
On December 8, 194l, both Italians
and Nazi ships were sabotaged. The
Italians did an artistic job; there
was much superficial disorder but
little real damage. Some of the
crew members stole furniture from
their ships and sold it to the an
tique shops In Rio and Bahia.

One of the feature stories
in the HagerstoWn Mail of June

in Europe" The sub title was
The Royal Career of Republican
Ex-President" The London cor
respondent of the New York Her
aid, telegraphed the story and the
local paper published extracts from
the dispatch.
General Grant and Mrs. Grant
were entertained, at a grand ban
quet by the Duke of Wellington. 1t
was a splendid and hearty recep-
ton. The banquet was served in
the famous Waterloo Chamber,
where the old Iron Duke loved to
meet the war generals of 1915 on
the 18th Of June every year and
celebrate the anniversary of the
great battle which forever closed
the fortunes Of Napoleon Bona
parte. Here, overlooking Hyde
Park, and within view of his own
statue at the entrance to the park,
the old Duke presided over the
annual banquet, reviewing the
events of the momentous times
when the supremacy of Great
Britain was hanging in the balance,
with strong probabilities of the
scale turning against her. 1t was
dramatic incident that the con-
queror of Lee should meet in this
revered chamber the descendant
of the conqueror of Napoleon the
Great" The grand list of engage

the sports world at large is that of
the simple daytime classic done in
natural beige colored jersey, styled
after the manner of the charming
dress centered in the above illus
tration. Slit pockets and front full
ness in the skirt are new autumn
style notes that it carries out to
nicely. 1t is a victory style and
carries out the war production
boards general orders perfectly
both in the letter of the law and
in the loyal patriotic spirit. In fact,
each of the three dresses shown is
in accord with LBS regulations.
The Importance of natural beige
tones cannot be overemphasized for
fall. 1t is not only in jersey that
they flourish, but the new velveteens
and corduroys in beige are simply
stunning for coats and suits as well
as dresses.
A smart two-piece daytime frock
done in the prescribed LBS manner,
shown to the right in the above
picture, gives jacket-suit impress
sion which is very fashionable. This
two-piece dress is a veritable stand
by for campus, go-to-town or travel
wear.
The dress at the left with the flash
of raffia embroidery is charming for
"date" duty, and it is in the very
foreground of fashion, for there is
wealth of intriguing embroidery be-.
ing lavished on dresses this fall. The
unique thing about the embroidery
that enhances this kelly green jersey
frock is that it is done in multi-color
raffia instead of the usual peasant
yarn work.

draped turbans of rayon jersey,
some with embroidery and others
with long scarf end intended to be

'Jewelry' Dress
Is an Innovation

Destined to Ego places" this fall
and winter is the new "jewelry
dress" as interpreted in endless
ways. Instead of being worn as
accessory to the costume, the jewels
are actually embroidered on as an
intrinsic part of the gown or coat
(evening coats especially.
You'll love the new necklace"
dresses. The most conservative are
of black crepe with a necklace eff
feet of pearls worked in as realisti-
cally as if it were a separate piece
of costume jewelry. Other frocks
are given a dash of exotic color
with glittering multi color stones
worked in Stimulating a real neck
lace. Lapel and shoulder ornaments
are jewel-embroidered after the
same manner.
There is what is referred to as the
bracelet Dress" for example, which
faunts gorgeous bracelet of col
ored stones worked right onto the
long sleeves about the wrist.
