Thumbs Down

II may be too early as yet Ia stand
up and cheer. Du; those concerned
which means most of uS--can al
least take courage IN action of the
House Ways and Means Committee
IN rejecting all proposals for any
increases in tobacco and gasoline
taxes.
Both of these commodities are
already carrying their full share
OF the load and more. Tobacco il
taxed several times the amount the
producer derives from it. and al
most twice what the retail price
would be but for lcvIeS upon il. This
is because it is luxury and be-
cause most consumers are SO adj
dictcd TO il that they will go to great
lengths To- supply themselves with
The proCcSsed leaf. The Spenders
seem never to be satisfied with the
burden imposed. and not to realize
that the goose that lays the golden
egg can. after all. be killed.
The situation as 10 gasoline is not
greatly different. America is ma
ton on wheels, and gasoline is the
motive power for much of the ;raf-
iic that moves daily across the length
and breadth Of the land. 1t is SO
essential that the spenders in public
places reason that consumption will
go on just the same regardless OF
the toll that is exacted in the way
Of taxes.
Consumers can thank their lucky
stars that degree of sanity is re-
turning among those whose duty it
is TO provide the money TO finance
government. Necessary funds must
rome from some source, but much,
so very much, is being levied and
spent that cannot properly be rated
