Deputy collectors M. C. Moe and
Arden Snyder will be at their office
in the Federal building here from

other income taxpayers who wish to

vide the discharged worker with
another job, regardless of the in
capacity or slackness which made
the discharge necessary.
1t is sound fiscal policy to pay
as you go, but the transfer OF
purchasing power from the cit
liens to the government will not
make possible the creation OF
more jobs. The effort to sponsor
public rather than private provi-
sion of employment by increasing
taxes will produce definitely ad-
verse effects upon private enter
prise and initiative. Yet the the
ory of the full employment bill is
that such application of private
income will stimulate investors
and business managers to greater
effort on their own account.
The assertion has frequently
been made that the Murray Bill
will prevent depressions. The as
sumption appears to be that there
can be no depression If there is
full employment. The fact that
there was virtually full employ
ment when the depression of 1929
began does not appear to affect
the argument, which rests on the
belief that a depression is always
caused by a decline of purchasing
power in the hands of consumers.
Again the historical sequence is
ignored. for the record is that the
depression led to the decline of
purchasing power rather than the
reverse.
There is no escape from the
conclusion that the Murray Bill
rests on false premises. Despite
its language it is not a private
enterprise bill. Stripped of its
vague and indefinite promises. as
sertions and pretenses, it turns
out TO be, in essence, a scheme to
commit the federal government to
a large-scale spending program
which will inevitably be financed
by deficit operations.

No Definitions

In the first draft the preamble
was entitled Declaration of Pol
ICY" This title was changed in
the new draft to read Free En-
terprise and Full Employment"
Neither free enterprise" nor full
employment" is defined, although
these subjects constitute the chief
topics of the bill.
The ordinary definition of "full
employment is that it is a condi-
ton under which all who are able
and willing to work are employed.
Deliberate and artificial MAIN
tenance of unbalance between the
demand for and the supply of
labor would naturally promote a
steady and continuous advance in
wages and in production costs.
Thus it would operate to produce
a continuous rise in prices; in
other words, an initiation.

Valuation of Services

1t is generally agreed that con-
tinuing full employment, in the
sense of having every member of
the labor force continuously at
work, is an unrealistic and unat-
tainable standard.
When a person cannot make a
decent living at his chosen occu-
patton or profession, the first in
ference is that his services are not
worth enough to any employer or
to the public to provide him with
the essentials of proper living.
Job opportunities equal to or
greater than the number of work
ers will offer some problems of
industrial discipline. which will be
intensified by the knowledge that
government stands ready to pro-

Until the Last Man is Home

Count right now on Great Northern Railway to do its level best better than
that, if posdbel to get Northwest service men home from camps and separation
centHs for Christmas.
But, please do 20 count IN miracles, for the nations railways face
today the worst passenger travel congestion they've ever had!
You are entitled to know why train travel, particularly O. Western lines, now
is difficult and will continue to be SO for at least 90 days.
The principaIr reason is the accelerated rate at which service men are
being returned to the United States. This month more than million men
will be landed at Pacific and Atlantic ports. And, at least 80 per cent of
them must and will be moved homeward by railway.
There are two "ruts' in todays train travel picture. One is that railways have
been called O to handle a vasdyinUeased volume of military traffic at a time
when thousands of civilians, including students and teachers, plan tt go home by
train for the yeaend holidays.
The other and most important is that there just isn't enough rail-
way passenger equipment to meet both military and civilian demands.
The railways tackled their job in World War II with Onethird fewer passenger
cars than they had in 1918. Construction of new passenger equipment by and for
RAILWAYS vas not permitted after 1e41. Great Northern has had five sreanined
trains on order since 1e4a, but delivery cannot be made in time to relieve the
present congestion.
Nevertheless, rehabilitation transport must go ahead, and toward getting it
DONE railways are assigning three fouths of all sleeping car space to troop move
ments. In addition, Great Northern and other Western lines have with
drawn hundreds of sleepers, coaches and baggage cars rom regular service
for special troop train operations. In a single day more than 20 special
troop trains are being moved o. Great Northern alone. These include
trainloads of eastbOund service men and unoccupied equipment moving

MARINE HERO OF

 ACT5 UNDER FIRE

CHICAGO, June "A Marine rifleman, described by an 13-year- old private as "the swellest guy this side of heaven" and whom he credited with saving his life on Okinawa, was the object of a search by a Marine official today so that he may be properly rewarded.
 Pvt. Norman D. Nelsons letter to his parents, MT. and Mrs. George A. Nelson, was mostly about an heroic comrade, and not much about his wounds. He said he was shot in both legs by Jap machine gun.
 Folks, I want you to pray hard for guy named Wyatt" Nelson wrote. T don't know his first name, but some day I am going to find out :. if it wasn't for him I would have died out there in no

mans land. You see, the minute I got hit I rolled into l6-inch shellhole for cover. Right away he jumped in beside me and put tourniquets on both my legs and stopped the bleeding.
 We were pinned down for two hours because the Japs knew we were there, and they kept con- stant machine gun and sniper fire over our heads just outside the hole. Finally our planes overhead saw us and dropped smoke gren- ades. Under the cover of the smoke Wyatt dragged me POO yards without stopping. Miraculously, the Japs just didn't hit us with their machine gun and sniper fire. I guess God was there to answer our prayers this time."
 Col. Chester L. Fordney, in charge of Marine procurement in Chicago, said he had taken the proper steps to see that Marine Wyatt is given recognition for his action

 Asked to help clear up the sit uation, Asher Lipman, chief sur veyor of the New York City tax department. prefaced with chid- ing remark Say, the more you delve into this thing the less you'll know"
 Lipman added :. "the island is politically in Manhattan, but geographically in Jersey City"
 Turning to the old Montgomery charter Of i730, Lipman produced proof that in the beginning both Bedloe and Ellis island belonged to New York City. Then on Sept. 16, 1883, came the setting of the New York-New Jersey border. giving both islands to New Jersey.
 The revised laws of 1887 in New York City's administrative code, which Lipman described as the city's Bible, show that Bedloe island is part of the New York's borough of Manhattan. This, said Lipman, is not true. The maps of New York City bear out Lipman's statement.
 Those who live within the shadow of the Statue of Liberty must at times wonder. They vote in New York. The water they drink comes from New Jersey. Their telephone is part of New Jersey exchange.
 It is a wonder someone has not thought of the obvious way out of this dilemma. Make the great po- litical boss, Mayor Hague of Jer- sey City. the referee. Lure him with all those votes now being cast in the city of New York which might help bulge the majorities produced by the Hague machine. Give him this opportunity to make history.

rrou1. Because one official identi- fled only as "the superintendent of national monuments" gave data to the World Almanac saying "the island is a part of the borough of Manhattan and the water around it is in New Jersey"
 Now an interior spokesman de- nies such information was given the almanac and is inclined to be- lieve the island is in neither New York or New Jersey! This would give it a similar status to the city of Washington, which is in no state, except one of confusion.
 The interior department in trJkr ing the acquisition of the property says the original Bedloe got the tract from the governor of New York, prior to 1870. Later the Bed Joe estate was sold to the city of New York, which was seeking a quarantine station
 City to State to U. s.
 In 1796, the title was trans ferred from the city to the state of New York. When the time came that the island was no longer need cd as a quarantine station, the fed eral government with the help of New York put in heavy fortifica- tons. In 1900 the title was trans- ferred to the United States gov ernment. In 1924 came the first of the presidential proclamations.
 But in the gap between 1900 and 1924 came the great steamboat" case determining the borderline be- tween New York and New Jersey, which seems to put the island within New Jersey territory.
 The tax assessors office in New York carries no record of the island on it's books, but the same office in New Jersey does.
 The Jersey City office shows that the Bedloe island is listed as plot 2155 (Eudson river and New York bay). This doesn't mean anything because the island is tax exempt. But the routine gesture does assess the island as worth S500,000 and
