Victory Tax

Meanwhile the Senate Finance Committee completed its work on individual income tax rates and wrote into the tax bill a 5 percent "Victory' tax to be su- pernmposed next year on all in dividual incomes above SIP a week. The proposed new levy would be collected by employers from the pay checks of employees beginning Jan. l. The Victory" tax would yield about $3,650,0O0, GOO This sum is additional to the $6, IA, 100000 of new revenue provided for in the record-break ing House bill, which had fallen short of Treasury reuirements. The total would bring to some $24,000, ,000,000 the staggering tax burden of the nation. But even that unprecedented sum amounts to only one-third of this years estimated war expenditures, to one-fourth of next years costs.

MUSTANGS FLY OVER HOLLAND

London, Oct. - The Air Ministry also announced that the high speed Ameri can planes known as Mus tangs' had made a sweep over Holland to attack rail ways and other targets. The attack was the third made by the Mustangs in four days.
 The Mustangs are among the fastest planes used by the British. RAF officers say the planes have arma- ment enough to m a k Q them a match for any en- emy fighter. In addition, the Mustangs fly very quietly. In recent weeks the Army Cooperation Command has been using the Mustangs with RAF' fighters in To W fl vi n g sweeps against enemy gar risons on the occupied coast.

Precaution for Raid
10th Street Heights
Citizens Given Picture
Of England in BIitz

A picture of the ordinary life Of .
BritiSher during an air raid was
given by Alfred H. lie Cheminant Of
the British Purchasing Commission
to the members Of the Sixteenth
Street Heights Citizens Association
last night in the Northminster
Presbyterian Church.
His talk centered on the first re.
actions and immediate precautions
taken at the sound Of the sirens.
He felt that one never really was
aware Of total war until the black
out closed down upon a whole city,
leaving its peoples to shift fer them
selves in darkened streets and
homes. Mr.. lie Cheminant added
that the issuing OF gas masks was
the most impressive war sign, though
soon the commuters easily forgot
them and left them on trains.
Gives Pointers on Preparation,
He told Of the so-called "Ander-
son" shelters, describing their ahil-
ity to Withstand "all except direct
hits and cold, wet nights" The as
ISOLATION members took special in
terest in such pointers as the need
Tor f1rst-aid kits in every home and
a bag packed with clothing so as to
be ready for anything at a moments
notice.
Mr.. LIE Cheminant's talk was fol-
lowed by a panel discussion in which
the areas defense chiefs briefly de-
scribed their setups and answered
questions.
Official British sound motion pic
lures were shown, giving the au-
dlence a view of tncendiary bombs.

League of Voters
To Aid Wartime
Service Program

Participation of the District
Voteless League of Women Voters
in the wartime service program of
the National League of Women Vot-
ers adopted by the Emergency
Council o. the national league in
Indianapolis this month was agreed
on in a resolution passed by the
District organization at q board
meeting yesterday.
AS part of its wartime service
program the District league agreed
to intensity its activities by enlist
ing its membership in a concerted
effort to carry pertinent information
on governmental problems to the
community. 1t was pointed out that
the policy of the league to help
citizens understand their Govern
ment was greater responsibility in
wartimes than in normal days, and
that great war service could be
rendered by interpreting and ex-
planning the complex Government
problems to the average citizen. A
variety Of methods to disseminate
information was suggested at the
board meeting, including radio pro-
grams, public speaking and press
publicity The method of approach
and the necessary organization for
carrying out these plans shall be
determined by the board, it was
stated.
A report of the Program Commit
tee on the best means of conducting
the keep citizens alert" program
will be made at a board meeting
Friday. it was announced. Mrs.
Eugene Dufield is program chair
man.
