tax bill. The Ruml plan was not the
product of this administration. 1t re-
suited from a widespread campaign
based on the attractive slogan of
"Pay-as-you-go" But, as was said
many years ago in the state of New
York in regard to that same slogan
you don't pay and you don't co..
The Nation will readily understand
that it is not the fault of the Treasury
Department that the income taxpay-
ers are flooded with forms to fill out
which are so complex that even Ger
titled Public Accountants cannot in
terpret them. No, it is squarely the
fault of the congress of the United
States in using language in drafting
the law which not even dictionary
or a thesaurus can make clear.
The American taxpayer has been
promised of late that tax laws and
returns will be drastically simplified.
This bill does not make good that
promise. 1t ignores the most obvious
step toward simplifying taxes by fail
ing to eliminate the clumsy Victory
Tax. For fear of dropping from the
tax rolls those taxpayers who are at
the bottom of the income scale, the
bill retains the Victory Tax-while at
the same time it grants extensive con-
cessions to many special interest
groups.

President William Green the Federation
Labor sent the following telegram Speaker Rayburn of the
House and to Senator Barley before either of the houses voted
on sustaining or overriding the veto:
II appeal to you and through you to all members of

LESSON In POLITICS

In 1880 Senator Norris of Nebraska
was up for reelection. The executive
committee of the Republican party
put out man to defeat republican
Senator Norris. After the election
that year. The Literary Digest
printed an article about the fight the
republicans made in Nebraska to de-
feat Norris. They praised him, one
church paper called him Great So
cial Prophet" commencing him very
highly. Senator Norris charged the
republicans used foul methods smear
| ing and framing him but could not
defeat him. They tried to defeat him
again in 1886 and in 1912 they sue
ceeded in defeating him. Norris
charged the power trust was behind
the move to defeat him because he
was the father of the IVA, a yard
stick to bring down the high price of
electricity to the people. Those sell
ing it had made enormous profits.
Senator Norris was one of the most
fair and just men in the U. S. Senate
and also a staunch Christian. The
man that succeeded him knocks Presi-
dent Roosevelt, that is what he was
elected for. Bob LaFollett the elder, !
spoke in Miles City years ago. Even
though he was republican, the re-
publican party tried hard to defeat |
him. Is the Republican party work
ing for the people or for the corpora
tons, and the business interests Why |
do they work so hard to defeat the |
men that have worked to |
preserve our form of government?
In the decision of the Montana SUI
preme court in the case of the Mon
tana State Liquor Control Board 1t
seems to me that it was not ethical.
The draft for the money should have
been returned to the makers of the
draft on account of it not being en-
tirely lawful. Being sent to a Chi
cago bank would be closing a deal for
the liquor dealers. This must be the
liquor Helena bank has stored. 1t
seems to me this deal will make
ot of trouble for some people. III;
.hink the people should commend and
honor Justices Adair and Erickson for
heir dissenting opinion in that liquor
leal. There is no question in the
minds of people that their dissenting
opinion was just. The liquor interests

WHAT DID YOU DO
TODAY, MY FRIEND
BY 1T. DEAN SHATLAIN
Tank Commander

4
What did you do today, my friend,
From morn until dark?
How many times did you complain
The rationing is too tight?
When are you going to start to do
All of the things you say?
A soldier would like to know, my
friend
WHAT DID YOU DO TODAY?
We met the enemy today
And took the town by storm.
Happy reading it will make
For you tomorrow morn
You'll read with satisfaction
The brief communique.
We fought, but are you fighting?
WHAT DID YOU DO TODAY?
My gunner died in my arms today;
l feel his warm blood yet;
Your neighbours dying boy gave out
A scream l can't forget.
On my right tank was hit,
A flash and then a fire;
The stencil of burning flesh
Still rises from the pyre.
WHAT DO YOU DO TODAY, MY
FRIEND,
To help us with the task?
Did you work harder and longer for
less,
Or is that too much to ask?
What right have l to ask you this,
You probably will say;
Maybe now you'll understand
YOU SEE, I DIED TODAY.
