OTHER PROPOSALS

In addition To providing for =
simplifed return. the committee
member said the group had agreed
to the following additional simpli.
fcation proposals:
The victory tax would be
changed 10 a straight 3 per cent
normal tax on income IN eX-
cess OF $500 per person.
The existing normal tax would
be merged with the surtax
schedule Thus the surtax
schedule would start with bot
tom rate Of 10 per cent.
Tn place of existing personal
exemption Of $500 for single
persons and 81 2Go for married
couples, straight exemption
OF $500 per person would be
allowed. Thus a married couple
with no dependents would be
allowed an exemption Of $1,000.
and a married man with two
dependents would b. allowed
$1,000

Fishing Interest
Is High

COLUMBUS, July II - A re-
port from the Accounting Sec
ton of the Ohio Division of Con-
servation indicates that public
interest in fishing is holding up
to proportions of several years
past. This conclusion is reached
from early estimates nm fishing
license sales, which so far in
1914 compare very favorably
with averages for the years
since 1910.
In view of the tens of thou
sands of fishermen who are in
military service outside the
boundaries of Ohio, the license
sales seem to indicate that a
greater per cent of Ohio citizen
ry are reSorting to fishing for
recreation than ever before, say
the Division authorities.
In this connection it may be
said that by act of the Legisla-
ture men and women in uni
forms of any branch of Service
are permitted to fish in Ohio
without licenses. This holds good
for hunting, too.

Stream Pollution
On Increase

COLUMBUS, July IA re-
BORT by T. G. Gallagher, chief
Of the Stream Pollution Engi-
neering Section of the Division
Of Conservation to the Ohio Con-
servation Commission points out
that four beet sugar plants in
ohio at Findlay, Fremont,
Paulding and Ottawa, have for
some time past been slicing and
driving the excess potato crop OF
last year for the u. S. Govern
ment This has resulted, the re-
port declares, in a stream pollu-
ton problem in the Sanusky and
Blanchard rivers, and likely Ia
ter in the Auglaize and Maumee
rivers and Sandusky Bay. The
uollution is accompanied by vile
odors to such an extent that they
have been declared a public
nuisance and menace to public
health by the local authorities
and high pitch of resentment
has been aroused. The Division
engineer, local authorities and
plant representatives have been
working diligently on the prob
lem which has proved a tough
one to solve.
An interesting experiment is
being made with a lime rock
filter for the neutralizing of acid
mine wastes at Hope Lake In
Vinton County, by Mr.. Gal
lagher and associates. 1t is hoped
to perfect a standardized design
which may be used to good ad-
vantage where local conditions
are suitable for the use Of such
filters.

Despite tre fact that thou
sands of kilograms, letters
and petitions poured into
Washington from all over the
country and from more than
zoo different organizations
asking that price control be
continued without weakening
amendments, the price con-
troll extension act that was
passed by congress was hard
ly worth the name.
AS the Price Control Act
now stands, it appears to be
designed more for the protec-
ton of the chiselers and
black market operators than
it does for the protection of
the consumers. With enforce
ment practically erased, the
consuming public is about to
begin to take a good beating
in the shape of eXorbitant
prices End initiation.
Congress has been very
worried about the excess that
is supposed to be iingling in
the pockets of the workers.
1t can now set back and re-
lax, for the new Price Con-
troll which doesn't control,
will relieve the workers of
an possible excess money
they might have.
Of course, clothing has
only increased in price by 70
per cent since 1941, so cotton
goods are going to be allowed
to increase in price Evident
ly, congress believes, hat 100
per cent increase would be a
fairer figure-for the pro-
ducers.
The new control act was a
great victory for the land
lords. The real estate inter
ests convinced congress that
they have been starving since
the inception of rent control

it, you will have a pain in
