spread labor troubles would be
apt to follow.
Senator Josh Lee has suggested
that an excess income tax, similar
to the excess profits tax applied
to corporations, be levied on all
Individual income in excess of the
amount earned in 1910 or 194l,
thus putting the burden of in
creased taxation on those who
have profited because of the war
and easing the burden for those
whose income has decreased or
remained the same since the war
began. This would not only in
clude labor, but also business CT
ficials who have increased their
earnings and government employ
ees who are earning more than
they ever did before. But it is
more likely that congress will
favor various forms of hidden
taxes such as increased taxes on
sales by manufacturers, unless
public pressure is sufficient to
force an excess earnings tax.
Noting the success of public
pressure in putting through the
pay-as-you-go plan, some officials
here are hopeful that the public
will be sufficiently aroused to use
similar tactics to force the Lee
plan.
All officials here realize that
the dangers of inflation-of pric-
es getting entirely out of hand
are greater now than they have
been since the war started The
fear of food shortages this year,
the increased activities of black
markets, the demands of labor
for still higher wages and diff
.culties of enforcing OPA regula-
tons are creating a crisis. So
far, higher taxes and compulsory
savings are the chief solutions
offered. Although the treasury
opposes compulsory savings, the
secretary of the treasury is OBJ
viously worried over a possible
decrease in voluntary savings
which he fears will accompany
the pay-as-you-go taxation. The
chances are that compulsory pur-
chase of war bonds will become
necessary if it is found that many
people meet their deductions for
income tax by reducing their de-
ductiOn for bonds.

Washington, D. c. - Last jan
uary the President told congress
that taxes for the fiscal year, be-
ginning July l, must be at least
10 billion more than last year. He
said this was necessary to keep
initiation from getting out of
hand. But congress became so
involved with putting present
taxes on a pay-as-you-go basis
that it has done nothing about
planning for higher taxes.
Now that the new fiscal year is
about to begin with no provision
for higher taxes, and with no
prospect that legislation can be
put through to provide for the
collection of new taxes before the
first of next year, the administra-
ton will seek to increase the
amount to be collected in 18
months, between January, 1914,
and July, 1945. Thirty billion in
that period, it is figured, would
be necessary to make up for the
absence of additional taxation
for the last six months of this
year.
Whether congress actually will
pass legislation to increase taxes
by this amount is very much
doubted here The chief purpose
of asking for such large new tax
es, according to the President, is
to close up the ''inflationary gap"
to drain off large part of the
extra AZ billion dollars which the
people of this country are expect
ed to earn this year.
But, although congressman real
lie that the sound way to do this
would be to levy an excess prof
its tax on those individuals who
are earning more money now than
they were before the war, there
is little chance that they would
risk the loss of political prestige
which this solution would in
Volve.
To a large extent, this surplus
income is being earned by war
workers who are members of Ia
Dor unions and whose wages have
been increased with the sanction
of the administration. If the adj
ministration suddenly tries to
force these men to turn over a
large proportion of their extra
earnings to the treasury wide

Appeal Is Now Made For
Many Extra Feed Crops

An appeal to North Carolina
farmers to plant extra acres of
food and feed crops to offset los
ses in the Midwest due to flood
and unfavorable weather condi-
tons has been received by DR.. I.
o. Schaub, director of the EXten-
sion Service at N. G. State Col
lege.
DR.. Schaub says that the need
for maximum food production IS
greater than ever and unfaVora-
bic growing conditions in the
flood areas has caused a very
serious situation. Paintings of
corn in those areas are being
made at a very late date and the
crop may not be able to mature
before frost.
Government officials at Wash
ington therefore have asked that
Tarheel growers make every eff
fort to produce greater amounts
than ever before.
The Director suggests that i'm
mediately following the harvest
ing of small grains, every single
acre possible be put into some
food or feed crop. With increas-
ed numbers of livestock and poul-
try, THE need for supplemental
grazing crops of soybeans, cow
peas, sudan grass, millet, and
sorghum are paramount in help
ing to relieve the feed shortage
which has developed and which
will probably continue we'll in
to 1914.
Since North Carolinians can
have year-round gardens DR..
Schaub urges all Victory Garden
ers to seed succession vegetable
crops throughout the year and
help relieve the demand on ra-
toned supplies of canned foods.
"Patriotic cooperation in plant
ing extra acres of feed crops on
every farm in this State and all
year gardens throughout the
State is necessary to achieve war
needs, DR.. Schaub said.
