Corn was just another vegetable to thousands of movie-going citl- zens-until Miss Judy Canova car eened her merry, mad way across the film Armament. But now the public is hilariously aware of the refreshing mirth that can spring from the homespun, wn-to-earth comedy of our vast and intensely rich American backwoods or rural regions.
 Miss Canova, whose brand of humor is uniquely original, has been called The Jenny Lind of the Ozarks," the Grand Duchess of the Sticks" and the Grown Princess of Corn" Her spritely hoyden personality has brought a new word into our modern lexicon of slang" "bodacious' she has developed bodaciousness to a high national pinnacle.

NEW INCOME AJAX
 BETTER FOR LOW
 INCOME BRACKET
Treasury Official Expet's No Slump in Bond
 Buying

Uncle Sam's new withholding tax which goes into operation on July lis not, when subjected to micro scopic examination, the bugaboo that a lot of persons would have us believe.
 Furthermore, according to Fred w. Aver, Deputy Administrator of the U. S. Treasury War Savings Staff, it will be far more beneficial than detrimental to the War Sav- ings program.
 This is particularly true" Aver said today, 'in light of the fact that it will provide every wage earner with a definite measuring stick of basic payments-out-of in- come upon which similar deductions for bond purchases can be based.
 False Impression
 There is an impression current, !" the Treasury official said, that the withholding tax is an additional tax; patiently this is a false inn pression. The withholding tax is merely a prepayment of income tax"
 Important, too, it was pointed out is the fact that the new taxes which are deducted from income at the source starting July l, include the five percent Victory Tax, which formerly has been paid as an ad- ditional burden on the regular in- come tax. In many cases, Aver said, this will result in deductions from income of less than actually is being deducted at present.
 For example" he said. "a mar ried man with two children who now earns $25 each week, pays 70 cents in Victory Tax deductions, will, after July l, pay a total of only 40 cents weekly, including both income and Victory tax. If the same worker earns $3o weekly, where he now has 90 cents deduct ed from his pay for Victory Tax, will have deductions of only 50 cents for both Victory Tax and his prepaid income tax. If he earns $35 weekly, he will pay only TO. cents, where he now has deducted $1.10 for Victory Tax, alone"
 Payments Easier
 The net effect of the new tax plan is to make income tax pay ments easier for the small wage earner and to hit a little harder those in the higher brackets. From $45 weekly income upwards. the increases in deductions follow with rapidity.
 The wage earner who makes $60 week will see his present deduc- ton of $2.10 for Victory Tax in- crease to $480 for both Victory and Income tax, and the increases continue in about the same ratio up to the $100-a- week income, where the Victory tax is now $40 weekly. Here the new withholding tax will amount to $l2.80 per week from the pay check. Above $l0O weekly income. and in the upper wage brackets, the withholding tax begins to fall short of the total tax and at that point, taxes begin to accumulate against the taxpayer for annual settlement.
 The War Savings Staff does not expect any falling off either in ] over- r-the-counter sales of War Bonds or in payroll savings plans now in operation.
