TAXES: ,r}2
NetU Lepies ahead

With the pay-as-you-go bill now
operative under presidential ap-
proval, congressional leaders began
consideration of additional tax
sources to meet the administra-
tion's request that new tax meas
ures be undertaken as a means of
closing the inflationary gap caused
by the nations tremendous pur-
chasing power.
While President Roosevelt had
left up to congress the type of new
taxes to be adopted before summer
recess, he expressed his opposition
to a general sales tax on the
grounds that it would impose too
heavy a burden on the poorer
people. While a compulsory saw
ings plan is not necessary now, the
President indicated that ultimately
a combination of enforced savings
and taxes would be required to
meet his original budget request
for $16,000,000,000 in new revenue
for fiscal 1914.
The Federal Reserve Board re-
Gently estimated excess purchasing
power at $35, 1000, 100000.

GAS:
FDR Yarns Asis

President Roosevelt served blunt
notice on the Axis that the use of
poison gas against any one of the
United Nations would result in
swift and full retaliation by the
United States with terrible con-
sequences" to enemy munitions
centers, seaports and other mill
tary detectives.
This was the third time in II
months the President had warned
the Axis that the use of gas would
be fatal boomerang. He said evil
dence was being reported with
increasing frequency from a va
riety of sources" that the enemy
powers were making Significant
preparation" indicative of an in
tention to use poisonous or noxious
gases.
Observers who noted that the
Presidents warning was similar in
character to one issued by the
British government recently, be-
lieved he had both Germany and
Japan in mind.

RUSSIA:
Tactics in Reverse

Using tactics in which the Allies
had given them bitter lessons in
Western Europe, the Nazis en-
ployed their waning air force in
massed bombing attacks against
Russian armament factories.
Typical of this effort were the
attempts to wreck the giant Cork
works, $50 miles east of Moscow.
While German and Soviet COM
muniques differed on the extent of
the damage, both agreed that the
attacks were of ferocious ma
ture. Moscow radio admitted that
casualties and some damage were
caused, but maintained that Ger
man reports were grosslysexagger-
ated. yo4f as e4s{,
Retaliatory raids were made on
big scale by Russian bonbers
which attacked the Unecha juno
ton on the Bryansk- Gomel rail-
road, blowing up munitions dumps
and fuel stores.
Meanwhile in the midst of
counter claims about opposing
losses in the Caucasus, a German
transocean agency broadcast pre-
dicted a big scale Russian attack
on NoVorossiSk.

TIGHTER BELTS:
Forecast for ~

Somber warning that American
civilians may have to tighten their
belts in 1914 was sounded by the
bureau of economies of the United
States department of agriculture.
The bureau in a review Of the
current situation situation said
that while there are enough ra-
toned foods on hand, together
with expected production to main
tain present eating levels for the
remainder of 1943, the outlook for
1914 may not be so favorable.
The review stated that vegetable
production is running about 13
per cent below last year; that
early freezes have cut crops of
apricots, cherries, peachs, plums
and prunes materially below 1912.
Supplies of eggs next fall and win
ter twill be considerably below
current levels" the review added,
while livestock may be adversely
affected.

SUBSIDIES:
Grange Head Denturs

Albert S. Goss, master of the
National Grange, predicted that if
the government employs subsidy
payments to roll back food prices,
"the nation is headed directly for
initiation and inevitable chaos"
The farm leader added that in
his belief, system of price con-
trolls by subsidy would lead to a
food shortage for America and her
allies.
Testifying before a senate agri-
cultural subcommittee, the Grange
master predicted that a 10 per
cent roll back in the retail prices
of butter and meats, already
ordered, would discourage produc-
ton. "There are indications al
ready" he said, "that the butter
and milk output are being reduced
substantially" Mr.. Goss contended
that instead of the present price
control system as a control of in
flation, an effort should be made
to bring supply and demand into
balance.

FISHING FAIR


Fishing last week continued
good for those who got out early
and stuck to the spots they were
familiar with. Here and there
angling wasn't worth much as the
waters were still muddy and the
best catches were from the old
standbys, and these were none
too heavy. With the weather more
moderate this week better luck is
in store for the fisherman who
plans a jaunt into the open this
week end.
SPORT TOGS
Clothes make the man, SO the
saying goes = but they will also
unmake the fisherman if he does
not confine his apparel to some
thing of a dark or subdued color.
The wary fish shy away from the
light and shiny colors except on
the attractive flashing lure.
Comfort is the second considera-
tion for the angler and the older
and sagiger the outfit the better
it hangs and the more freedom it
gives for the satisfactory thrill
and joy of fishing expedition.
MORE FISHING
Movement is on foot to open
many miles of nearby stream
banks for fishing which are easily
accessible to the larger towns and
cities. Indiana has already acted
to have "No Fishing" signs re-
moved from these streams and
Ohio could do we'll to have the
same thing done in this state.
There is lot of good fishing to
be had in this section if the signs
are taken down. - and it sure will
help the old point count and
pocketbook to be able to take
advantage of a move like this.
SOME BIG ONES
In case you didn't already know,
the largest muskellonge ever
caught by rod and reel was a
621a FOUNDER in Lake st. Clair,
Mich. in 1910. The largest muskie
ever hauled in and recorded was
a rs pound catch in 1906 in
Wisconsin.
An 80 pound Lake Trout was
reported in 1878 from Lake
Mackinaw, Mich, and the largest
one of this species caught by rod
and reel was a 63 FOUNDER in
1880 in Lake Athapapuskaw, Ma
nitoba, Canada.
In 1880 AZ pound carp was
caught with rod and reel in the
Rapahannock River in Virginia
and the biggest carp catch on re-
cord is one of 831a pounds in
Pretoria, South Africa.
Finally the largest fish
catch on record is that of a whale
shark weighing 26,954 pounds in
1912 off the Florida Keys and

Specifically, Major Parten said
that the petroleum administration

EUROPE:
"MeHOtU Light

Even as Prime Minister Win
ston Churchill had declared that
the mellow light of victory" was
already playing on the Allies, the
Axis had ben tensely alert for the
long-promised invasion of Europe
Axis communiques had early re-
ported attempted Allied landings
on stepping stone" islands be-
tween Africa and Italy. First of
these was the Rome and Berlin
radio reports of Commando
movement on the tiny island OF
Lampedusa, bordering the Tunisian
coast. Then came the Rome COM
munique announcing that the gar
rison defending beleaguered Pan
telleria had been called on to sur
render by Allied forces. Pantel-
leria had experienced a pounding
-yyvch as even Malta had not suf-
neil ed, for here the devastating
led bomb onslaughts from the
n ar had been accompanied by with
ering bombardment of Italian po-
sitions by unopposed Allied naval
forces.
Never before during the war
had Prime Minister Churchill
spoken so confidently as during
his report to parliament concern
ing the European situation in
which he described the amphibious
operations of a peculiar COM
plexity" against the enemy. Con-
'cerning the Allied air offensive
which observers had termed the
actual first phase of the invasion,
he declared that nothing will turn
the Allies from their intention of
accomplishing "the complete de-
struction of our foes by bombing
from the air, in addition to all
other means"
