HUMAN SERVICES

But curiously enough no SINH
lar forbearance is shown toward
human beings. According TO the
implications Of the law. actors,
hroadcasters. writers. execu-
tlves, managers and others who
sell human services are immor.
tai. They are never expected TO
go out of date. or to exhaust
their flow of energy. Hence
they may make no equivalent
writeoffs for depreciation, obso-
leScense or depletion.
In fact, under the new law
even the special preferential al
lowance made for limited
amount of earned income" has
been discontinued.
But irrespective Of the anoma-
lies Of the tax law, human be-
lngs do have limited economic
life, their vogue often is short
lived, and many after a period
of years pass the peak of maxi
mum earnings and productivity.
They should set up reserves.
"A gal INST such contingencies.

led both Detroit and New York

problem.
AS a result several are pre-
pairing potential plans for sale
of Mrs. Ford's stock in the

Detroit.
They point out that sale of
this block of stock would pro-
vide a simple and logical means
of raising tax moneys.

but that such move may Aet

My impression is that conSci-
entious men in the management
level are taking a terrific pound
ing during the war emergency.
This results primarily from the
fact that factories, with govern
ment orders, have expanded
their physical facilities and
rank and file personnel much
more quickly than additional
men of top managerial talents
could be developed. The situa-
ton was further aggravated by
the exodus of younger assistants
to chief executives into the
armed services of the country.

Mother Natures playing her
part and If the draft doesn't cut
in too deeply on the lake ship
perS uanuower supply, new
record for the coming season is
in prospect.

50 companies having a total Of
i SOS officers and men report

If iEpn ore. coal. grain and lime
stone, which is 100000 more
than the record 1872 year rms
Is more than three times the
tonnage Of dry cargo exported
from oil u S. ports last year

Best break. OF course, has
been the mild weather, which
presages an early season.
Last year the season didn't
open until April 70. while the
year before the first vessel went
through the 500 locks on March
% for a record. April is the goal
this year.
Al Duluth there is only three
miles OF light ice reported. as
against 50 miles of heavy ice a
year ago. In the 81 Marys
River just below the 500 Canal
the ice is only five inches thick
as compared with is to "A
inches last year.
Given an even break on the
draft. shippers say they'll meet
the quota.
