Equitable Tax Program

Our tax legislation should forgive
the low income citizens Of their 1913
taxes thereby permitting them to be
placed on q current pay-as-you-go basis
but high income groups should be COM
PEELED to meet their 1912 tax obliga-
tions. The Ruml Plan must therefore
be defeated.
Further. the Roman Holiday for corpora
tions must cease. How can Congress justify
to themselves or TO the nation the un.
considerable war and blood profits CT cor
porations in the face of wage sterilization
for those who toll in the war plants and
the sacrifices being made by our fellow
Americans in the armed forces.
War profits above the 1899 peace
time level must be completely elm
mated. Other special financial privi-
leges must come to an end.
Our tax legislation should be consistent
with the objective pronounced by the
President OF the United States, namely
based upon equity and justice instead of
continued privileges to a few.

lightly, but he was disturbed over
the mysterious car, feeling that it
might mean trouble. He remem-
bered that the river ran along the
edge of the old Johnson farm, and
that it was stream large enough
to accommodate boats of consid-
cradle size. And remembering the
river, he began musing as to the
possibilities of Observation-Disclosures ar

CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR

1t was nearly noon when Adam
finally got around to talking over
the cafeteria matter with Susan.
I'm sorry l kept you waiting
50 long" he told her, but it could
Mt be helped. Suppose we . Gown
to the kitchen now and have a
talk with Joe. the cook, and the
other help
"What about the menus and fig
ures I've put DOWN.
They'll keep" Adam replied.
Il think the first step is for you
to watch the lunch being served
get an idea how many people are
fed-how long it takes-and have
a look at the size of orders
All right" Susan agreed. May
I be that would be best. But I'm
crazy to show you how think
I've figured way that you might
be able to cut costs 10 per cent.
Adam smiled. THAT sounds okay
to me! Cuts are welcome now
adays. I'll arrange later for you
to do the buying. SO there'll be
no hitch. 1 suppose you know the
butcher. the baker and the vege-
to BILE vendor. -
Il should say I do" Susan
laughed. They are always COM
plimenting me on the way I know
my vegetables and meats.
Good. All Ill have to do now
is tell them you're the boss, and
arrange for credit"
A short time later they we're
entering the kitchen. Everything
was activity there. as the Cafeteria
was presently to open for t h e
lunch time business. Adam called
Joe over from the huge range.
He was big and black. and wore
a white cap. making picture that
reminded Susan of an advertise
ment she had once seen for a
breakfast cereal.
Mrs. Potter Adam said, this
is Joe. He'll give you all the help
he can
Hello. Joe" Susan said. Are
MT you Uncle Moses son and
didn't you used to live out near
my Uncle Andrews place.
"Yes'm Joe beamed on Susan.
'Lawsee. don't tell me you-an S
Miss Susan Burnett"
Il used to be-" said Susan. I'm
Mrs. Potter now-and Mr.. North
wants me to help with the cafe
terra"
And I'm counting on your being
her right-hand man, Joe Adam
said.
Or" said Susan, IN be your
right-hand mani"
Joe laughed. displaying an amaz-
ing lot of gold Filings. "Effen YOU
all can cook like old Miz Burnett,
yo' grandma, this here's going to
be one popular resrant sho'
snuff" He smacked his lips. and
went on. abs never forgot Miz
Burnett's not biscuits. Lawzee,

Mrs North's not going to cook.
Adam said. She's only going to
plan meals"
Abs sho' huff glad to hear
dat" said Joe. "Ah likes cookin'
but All amt no good at plannin'
Some of us niger folks is like
cat. Miz Nirth. Us has to be told
what to do. and then we sho' huff
gifts busy"
Adam called some other h ! p
then, and told them who Susan
was.
She's going to get the hang of
things beginning now" he said.
After that-well. we'll see."
"You-all sit right down here
said Joe. pulling out a chair. IAN

but Zeb'n turn dat fan round SOS
you-all can feel the breeze"
THANK you, Joe," Susan said.
Just go on, all of you, as you've
been doing, I'm pretty green. and
YOU can teach me lot.
How about your own lunch?'
Adam asked, suddenly remember
ing that Susan had to eat as well
as plan.
III have something after t h e
rush is over" Susan said. "You

mo, I'll wait for you. I'm going
back to the office now. Just tele-
phone up to me VIII you re
ready" He smiled at her. Sure
you want to go on with it?' he
asked, lowering his voice.
"Of counsel" said Susan.
Pretty hot and smelly down
here
I've been in hot kitchens be-
fore-and the smells are all pleas
ant ones
"Okay." Adam started off. and
turned back. Again he lowered MS
voice. How does Bill feel about
all this?"
He takes it rather light. But l
have his consent, if that's what
you mean" 90,
In a way. yes" said Adam: Il
wouldn't want him to get the idea
I'm butting in on his routine, or
anything like that"
Susan shrugged. AFTER all the
coming to dinners and bridge par
ties when he was away, the least
he can do is permit his wife to
do you a favor
Il reckon that is one way to
look at it." Adam said. Anyway.

too long the first day
Il won't Susan assured him.
Don't forget I've dinner to cook

"And We'll talk salary when we
are lunching," Adam said.
He hurried on back to his office

him. reminding him of Mrs. Lath-

Ruth consulted slip of paper
to locate Mrs. Latham's number.
How did Mrs. Potter get along
in the Kitchen" she wanted to
know. as she waited for Central
to ring Mrs. Latham.
