Serious Diseases
Never treat mumpS and whoop-

serious diseases and should so be
regarded. Mumps may make a boy
sterile for life and whooping
cough may go into the worst form

One thing about all these dis

never return. There is only one
exception - whooping cough. If
Little Elmer has a bad cough and

We have no artificial immunity

McNary Hits Increase
In Taxes Until WASTE
In Spending Ceases
Py the Associated Press.

y inc AssOClhJcQ fTeSS.
Senate Minority Leader McNary
voiced opposition today to an in
crease in individual or corporation
income taxes until after Congress
stops the administrations profiigate
waste Of public funds"
Senator McNary told a reporter
he did not believe there will be any
new tax bill this year, adding that
some economies in. expenditures
should be- made to cut the gap be-
tween the Governments outgo and
income.
Similarly, Senator Vandenberg
Republican, of Michigan, member
OF the Finance Committee, said he
believed 1t much more important at
this time to preserve the national
economy than to saddle an addi-
tional tax burden on citizens.
Il think we probably can in
crease taxes about $3,000,000 10000 or
$4,000, 100000 above present levels" +"
Senator Vandenberg said. I'VE
could do more If we had not already
provided 1917 per cent increase for
both 1914 and l945."
Consider Sales Tax.
This reference was to the amounts
that will be due in the unabated
portion of 1912 or 1943 taxes from
many individuals.
Senator Vandenberg said he be-
lieved it might be possible for Con-
gressSeo enact a graduated sales tax
and put very low rates on necessities
such as food and clothing, but en-
phasized this would have to be &C
complished, If at all, over admins
tration opposition.
The administration has practi-
cally promised the CIO a wage in
crease if Congress enacts a sales
tax" he asserted. Economic Stabil-
ization Director Vinson has said
that a sales tax would precipitate
demands for wage increases and has
practically said he felt such de-
mands would be justified under
those circumstances"
Meanwhile, House Ways and
Means Committee today began de-
liberations on a tax measure amid
widespread doubts that a bill can
be written this year.
Open inquiry ended yesterday with
"a Republican demand that the de-
sired billions come out of Govern
ment spending cuts instead of more
taxes.
Taber Hits Waste"
The last witness, Representative
Taber of New York, ranking Repub-
lican on the House Appropriations
Committee, said sl0000,000 900 could
be saved by economy and elimina-
ton of waste without interfering
with the war effort, and declared
Il intend to give the House an
opportunity to vote down every eX-
pense not required for the war effort
and to do my best to call attention
to every wasteful act which will
delay the war effort"
His estimate Of possible savings
was only half billion collars short
Of a new revenue goal set by the
Treasury.
Chairman Cannon OF the Appro-
priations Committee shot back in a
statement to newspapermen that
the Republicans were playing
politics.
If we could hold the presidential
election next week instead of next
year and get it out of the way" he
said, then we could win this war a
lot quicker and a lot cheaper. OF
course, we've got to have more taxes
than we have now. unless We want
to pass the cost of this war on to
the soldiers and to our children"
