income tax bill and warned that
the Ruml skip-a-year plan is like
robbing Peter to pay a bonus to
Paul"
To forgive any taxpayer one
years taxes means that the debt
he has already incurred and owes
to the government must be borne
by some other taxpayer who may in
many instances be less able to pay
than the taxpayer whose debt is
forgiven" the report, submitted by
Committee Chairman Robert l..
Doughton, D., N. c., said.
NOT UNANIMOUS
The report was not unanimous,
and Republican members who IA

The gopher is an animal of the

The usual length of a gopher is
from 10 to IL inches, counting the

has sharp teeth at the front of its
mouth.
The cheek pouches are lined with
fur and are outside of the cheeks,
not inside the mouth. In these
pockets" the gophers are able to
place nuts, roots and other food to
carry to their underground homes.
When gophers dig, they use tooth
and claw They scrape the dirt
away with the claws of their fore
feet and cut into the soil with their
long front teeth.

some sections they do more harm

gnaW at the roots of trees. An
Oregon farmer took his family on
a weeks trip and when he got back
he found 40 of his fruit trees de-
stroyed by these animals.
Where there are canals and
levees gophers are a danger. They
may dig so many tunnels into the
ground that the banks will be bro
ken. Gophers do not like to dig
through sand and for this reason
layer of sand has been placed on
many levees as protection against
them.
