Won't Hold Back

Senator Truman is not the
only man in Washington who
thinks along these lines. Henry
A. Dinegar, director Of durable
goods and products for the
WPB's office of civilian re-
uuirements. speaking in New
York recently, held the same
views.
In planning reconversion 10
civilian production, WPB can
not attempt 10 hold back
civilian output until all manu-
facturers are able 10 start the
race on the same basis, he said.
He indicated that as soon as
military requirements permit,
civilian goods manufacture will
be permitted in whatever area
or whatever plant is effected by
major cutbacks.
Manufacturers will be per-
nitted To enter new product
lines while old producers of
similar lines are still engaged
in war production. he stated.
Maybe that doesn't seem
quite fair but it's the spirit of
free enterprise, IL would seem.

Touch Times

So you think your taxes are
high---!!!
A story in recent issue OF
the Windsor Daily Star reminds
our friends across the river that
they have an income tax coming
due, too.
A married man with one child
who is earning $4,000 a year,
for an example, in this country
would pay a combined income
and victory tax of approximately
S346 a year and feel that times
were really tough. On the other
side of the river he would find
that his tax bill was $776.40.
There's another table in the
Star for men with incomes of
$500. over there a married
man with that income would
owe S2,221.20. over here he
would have to pay just about
HALF of that amount.
In the good old United States
a man with a $4,000 income
would pay just a shade over
so per cent of il in tax. but in
Canada his bill would top $685.
900. And if he made 500, 1000
here he would hand over about
$4,000 in taxes as compared
with nearly $4,000 over there.
In addition TO the regular tax
in Canada, every dollar of in
vestment income over 81 800 is
subject to an additional 4 per
cent levy which is superimpoSed
on the regular tax.
I'm not complaining either!

Less ENCOURAGING

Somewhat less encouraging Is
an item buried down at the bot
tom OF page OF the Center Line

Grated by Westinghouse. 1t
reads:
"It may come as surprise
20 some, hut 20 per cent of the
employees of this plant are NOT
buying war bonds regularly on
the pay roll deduction plan"
Which recalls 10 the writer
that nearly as many bonds were
cashed in as were sold in the
two weeks prior 10 income tax
day, March 15-and that with
the Withholding tax in effect,

The dope a few days ago was
that Prentiss Browns appoint

that was correct because no ac-

the directors meeting. However,
il is possible that his appoint

among the directors.
Even the stockholders meet

with shareholders asking PreSl'
