TOWARD SIMPLER TAXATION

What the politicians fondIy refer to as the voice
of the people very audible in that 3o8-to-O vote
for the smpIified tox bill in the House recently 1t
was the first unanimous vote on q tax measure in
the Oldest inhabitants memory Everybody from the
rockbound coast Of the Union League Club to the
sunny slopes Of Hoeon's kDy wanted smpIifieoton.
They howled for it, and they got it.
So now everybody ought to be happy, with the
possible exception Of the editorial writer's and COR
toonsts who will have to find some other sub ect for
comment and coreoture in the week preceding
March IS, l945.
BY thot dote, if the bill posses the Senate in its
present FORM the horred tax computer will have de-
ported, to the number Of some 30 millions. The moze
Of assorted nets and crosses, the skipping down to
figure the Victory tax and Tipping back to the sur
tax tobIe-oII his bron-rockng business will be q
memory. The Treasury will be doing the arithmetic
for most Of US.
There ore one or two clouds in this rosy picture,
however, The reason is that the tax laws remain
fundamentally unchanged. The bosis Of previous
complications is still there; the complications have
simply been waived Whether they ore permanently
eliminated will probably have to woit upon the re-
suit Of the new dord-deduction feature.
This feature gives most taxpayers an average de-
duotion OF ~ per cent tbut nor p0UU) tor con-
trbutons, taxes, interest. other deductions al
loved at present. 1t seems unlikely thot majority
Of taxpayers with incomes subject to withholding
could clam that much deduction unoer the current
law. But they will all toke the credit under the new
one.
If person actually foces loss under this stand
ord-deducton setup, he hos the option Of filling out
form, listing his deductions and claiming up to IS
per cent Of his adjusted gross income, which is gen.
eroIy gross income less business expenses Most cit
liens would doubtless choose to fill out return roth.
er than pay money for the sake Of simplicity.
All this may cost the Treasury considerable
sum Of money. And if it does, may be filling out
tax forms again. -
What might be simpler and foirer would be q
lower tax rote with oil but busness.expense deduc-
tons eliminated. But lin the meantime, let US be
thankful for the not uncomfortable fovor Of the pres
emf simpIifeotion And let's hope it Iosts.

When Smaller Plants Corp
Grafton Chairman Maury Maver-
lex let 60 his blast at meaning
less gobbledygook language used
by guv'ment bureaucrats in their
official orders and memoranda,
he might have done the long
suffering civilian reader another
favor if he had included in his
target lot of the naval and mill
tary jargon of alphabetism and
numerology which now cutters
up the news of the war and the
news Of war production.
How would you like il, for
instance, if the news of the inva-
sion came at you like this:
THE first waves of Marines
debarked from LCTc and, sup
ported by NIB inks which rolled
off the LISTS, they quickly es-
tablished the beachhead. From
the air they were aided by SB-
D5's. In the second wave came
Army troops. debarking from
LCIL's. supported by Ism S
which disgorged MA tanks under
the air protection furnished by
PATS and A-20-A's."
And so on.
No situation would ever de-
velop like that and heaven
knows no reporter in his right
mind would ever write il that
way. But this gives an idea of
how this trick technical lingo is
developing, and it's high time
il was stopped. inasmuch as it's
likely this war will be around
for quite a while.

name without sex appeal OF
glamor for gal who wants tc
brag to her playmates about
what kind of warship her

no inspiration out of such stuff
What kind of tune could be

New Woman's Organization
M-BetWeen ClnbF0rmedt0 Care
ForI those Of 80 Years and Older
By Gretchen Smith,
Women's Club Editor,

A new woman's club has been born
recently in Washington which may
well prove pattern for many such
organizations in other parts of the
country.
To be known as the In Between
Club" the group is composed of
women 80 years of age and up, most
of whom are employed in Govern
ment departments and for whom
little has been done in the way of
recreation and entertainment, avail
able through the USO and other
agencies, to the the thousands of
younger women and girls who have
f1ocked to the Capital for war work
Organized through the interest
of USO directors and personnel
councillors in various Government
agencies who have banded together
in a Washington Committee on
Women's Recreation Problems, the
objectlveS of the new club will
range from IAN opportunity to meet
an intelligent man" to the means
OF getting away from yourself"
These older women want the
same things as the younger ones,
except that more of them demand
intellectual companionship," Miss
Gretchen Feiker, director of the
USO penthouse at the YWCA, a CO.
chairman of the Womens Commit
tee and one of the new clubs
founders, explained.
Miss Frances Conlon, director of
the Noes Womens Division Club at
1912 North Capitol street. also CO.
chairman of the committee which
founded the club, declared that
older women who have been work.
ink hard at the war effort, resent
the fact that little has been done

N Street USO, is in charge of ar
rangements and announces that
other parties will follow as soon
as plans are completed.
I'VE want the forgotten women
to enjoy life as we'll as the younger
Ones" Miss Powell declared. That
why the USO is back of the In
Between Club"
1t was pointed out that younger
Government workers are given an
opportunity for recreation as junior
hostesses in USO clubs, positions
which the "in-between" age group
are too old to fill, yet, as one Of
their number put it, are not old
enough to be laid away in moth
balls"
