Red Tape

Why must persons who bring sugar or coffee
into the country surrender rauon uckets!
Isn't somebody forgetting the reason tor ra-
tioning those commodities, or perhaps being
unduly bureaucratic?
Sugar and coffee are rationed because we
lack sufficient transportation to import enough
for everybody. If man who has been out
of the country chooses to bring back a lew
pounds of sugar or coffee on his person OF
in his car, he is not burdening transporter
ton facilities or taking an unfair share OF
what has been brought in for everybody.
# seems highly technical under such cir
cumstances, to make him surrender coupons.

The Berlin Raid

The Royal Air Forces bombing raid or
two in particular.
In the first instance, it was the heaviest
yet undertaken by the British fliers. Nine
hundred tons of bombs were rained upon the
German capital, headquarters of the Nazi
war machine, the city whose people were
told by Herr Goebbels at the outbreak of the
war no enemy fire could ever reach.
The second point is that by this second ma
jor raid on Berlin in March, the British OBJ
viously are convinced that they are prepared
to offset the worst attack of which the Luft-
waite is capable.
A London dispatch dwells on this. 1t says
that the British anticipate reprisal raids but
believe that their greatly augmented air de-
fenses are strong enough to turn back any
bombers that attempt to cross the Channel
If this is true, and there is no reason to
doubt it, the possibility of an Axis invasion
is exceedingly remote. Actually, the situa-
ton of two years ago is reversed. The Battle
of Russia, in which the Nazis have lost SC
heavily in men and equipment, has played
vital role in reversing it. The Battle o1
Africa, which is quickly approaching show
down with Rommel and Won Arnim being
forced into narrower channels of escape, is
cast in an equally important role The steady
pounding of Nazi war industrial centers and
communications, by which the Allies have
cut Axis replacement and delivery operations
to minimum, also are helping to eliminate
possibility Of an expeditionary force ever sue
cessfully crossing the Channel and establish
ing a toehold on British soil.
1t would appear that Mr.. Churchill's fears
need no longer be so poignant; that the time
is near when the millions of men modified in
the British Isles may be used for invasion
of the Continent, instead of a home defense
force.
The Berlin radio announcement of the ar
rival of many British ships off Gibraltar may
indicate that something of the sort is nearer
than most of us had imagined

Tax Compromise Foreseen

For the present it appears that neither the
Ruml income tax plan, under which a years
collections would be skipped to get taxpayers
on a pay-as-you-earn basis, nor the plan ad-
vanced by the majority of the House Ways
and Means committee, which eliminates the
forgiveness" provision of the former, will
be approved.
Instead, if current trends Of opinion are a
faint gauge a compromise will be sought in
which there is small likelihood the average
earners of the country will find much relief
from the heavy burden they now carry.
The trouble with the Ruml plan is its SIM
plicity By the same token the House COM
mittee's plan is too complicated, even for a
legislative body which dotes on complications.
Between the two some sort of balance
probably will be struck which will do away
with the convenience of the former without
materially lessening the inconvenience of the
latter
1t may properly be claimed that in the pres
ent war emergency there is no place for
dainty consideration of taxpayers and their
convenience. And that is true. The war has
imposed tremendous cost upon this nation.
The only way it can be met is through the
tax levies. The people understand this. and
are ready to shoulder the load. But that is
not a satisfactory reason for tax LEGISLATION
to impose burden they cannot possibly
carry.
instead OF compromise, the Congress
would 90 better job by accepting the SIM
pie provisions of the Ruml plan, place in
come tax collections as a pay-as-you-earn
basis through payroll Deductions and be done
with it. The Treasury would be better off
and the people generally, who can't make
provision for extraordinary drains on their
incomes however hard they try, would not
be driven to the bank seeking additional loans
and jeopardizing their credit every time a
quarterly payment falls due.

Daily Prayer
FOR LOVE OF COUNTRY

In day when critics are clam
ant, and small men are lifting up
whining voices, we cry to Thee,
o God of our fathers, for re-
baptism of the spirit of loyal and
unshakable patriotism. Give us
clear, long vision to behold Thy
guidance of this land that we love.
Thou hast lowered us uniquely
with the blessings of brotherhood,
of liberty, of opportunity and OF
service to the world. Thou hast
not dealt so with any other ma
ton: for the working out of Thy
universal purposes Thou hast made
us almoners and friends to peo'
pies afar. Thou hast taught our
sons how to fight valiantly in a
righteous war; and Thou hast put
into the peoples hearts a great
purpose for a man-serving, God
glorifying peace. We pray to be
kept true to this Country of Thy
favor; and to make it ever more
like the Kingdom of Heaven
Amen.-W. T. E.
