 Correlative passage from Science And Health With Key to The Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy The elucidation of Christian Sci ence lies in it's spiritual sense, and this sense must be gained by it's disciples in order to grasp the meaning of this Science In Christian Science, substance is understood to be Spirit, while the opponents of Christian Science be- lieves substance to be matter They think of matter as something and almost the only thing. and of the things which pertain to Spirit as next to nothing, or as very far re- moved from daily experience.

The CIO news. (Cumberland, Md.) 1942-????, 1944-01-03

public support don't talk compromise, and the fact
that opponents of subsidies, polltax repeal and the
soldiers vote are now doing so indicates they real
lie the weakness of their position.
On the other hand, their alleged COM
promises should be recognized for exactly what
they are-attempts of the tories to gain by
weasel-worded confusion of the issues what
they losing hope of gaining in open and
cIear-cut fight.
For instance nothing but federal action along
the lines of the GreenLucas bill will really
all our fighting men their voting rights. Compro-
misses will simply continue the disfranchisement of
millions of them while aiding opponents of the
soldiers vote to hide themselves from public wrath.
The constitutional amendment compromise"
on the poltax Is nothing but a complete sidetrack-
ing of the issue, making poltax repeal virtually inn
possible But it would furnish an tout" for poll
tcians who claim to oppose the polltax while actu
ally supporting 1t.
AS for food subsidies, any of the proposed linn
itatons on them would be flirting with imitation and
allowing living costs to go up first lust a little
and then more and more.
Urge your representatives I'm Congress to
stand firm against any compromise on the basic
principles of food subsidies, passage of HR 7 to
end the polltax, and federal provision of votes
for soldiers.
The anti-democratic tory crowd are on the
all these issues and are worrying about
the 1914 elections. Let's keep them on the run.
And let's remember there's another word for
compromising with such forces. That word is
"appeasement," and everyone knows what ap-
peasement did for Hitler.
The CIO news. (Cumberland, Md.) 1942-????, 1944-01-03
A Sales Tax

In its campaign for a sales tax, the national
Chamber of Commerce claims to have unearthed
some workers who favor this method for making
the poor shoulder the rich mans tax burden.
AS evidence that widespread sentiment" exists
for a sales tax, the Chambers Washington Review
reports that "a small, eastern steel distributing
company conducted poll among its workers which
showed 104 votes for 1919 retail sales tax ;"
Remarkable! But wait minute, this is only
half the story The report continues with 1T votes
for 1919 increase in the Withholding tax, and 3
not voting
I'm other words the workers appar-
emily asked which they preferred, 1000 sales
tax or q 1917 increase In their Withholding tax.
Caught between the devil and the deep blue
sea, most of them evidently decided that devil Of
1919 more locked from their wages was worse than
founderng in a of 1919 higher living costs.
This incident Is typical of the phoney sales
tax propaganda. Actually the choice is not be-
tween two alternative methods of soaking the
lowest paid. 1t Is between taxing the wealthy
according to ability to pay, making those
least able to pay bear most of the burden
through sales tax.
II these workers had been asked IL they pre-
ferred a 1919 sales tax to higher taxes on upper
incomes and war profits, don't think the sales
tax would have received single VOTE
The CIO news. (Cumberland, Md.) 1942-????, 1944-01-03
On Compromises

The air is thick with talk of compromises on
most of the big issues awaiting action by the next
session of Congress.
The popular demand for food subsidies to keep
down living costs has led Senator Taft to propose
compromise severely limiting the of subsidies,
instead of banning them altogether.
The antpolltax bill CHR. y has gained such
momentum that there is renewed talk of reviving
the constitutional amendment proposal 'com-
promise"
Similarly, the Senates action in virtually deny
ing the right to vote to the armed forces has stirred
up such storm of public indignation that few poll
ticians dare openly to defend its stand. Instead
they are talking of compromises such as consti-
tutional amendment federal collection of the
soldiers votes leaving the states free to count them
or not.
Tn one sense, some encouragement may be
drawn from all this compromise talk. For those
who are sure of their position and confident of
