TAX INFORMATION IS
 GIVEN OUT BY IR(

While the 20 percent war ex- else tax on jewelry, furs, toilet preparations and luggage will re- main in effect indefinitely, there will be some modification of the tax on fur-trimmed articles, ac- cording to Internal Revenue Col lector Clark Squire.
 Beginning April 1, the tax on ar- ticles containing fur applies only if the value of the fur at the time of assemblage exceeded three times that of the next valuable material Fur trimmed garments will not be exempt from tax merely be- cause they retail below a certain fixed price, since exemption is de- termined strictly on relative value of the materials used.
 The tax on liquor, tobacco and admissions and the manufactur- CTS excise taxes remain unchang- ed Tax rates on transportation of persons and property also are extended indefinitely, except that travel by air or water across the Atlantic or Pacific will not he tax d after April l.

ANNIVERSARY Of GIRL
SCOUTS IS OBSERVED

National Girl Scout week, March
9-15, was observed here by Girl
Scouts who arranged displays in
store windows, held a banquet and
attended church services. The oc-
casion was the thirty-fifth ami
versary of the founding of the or
~ganization in the United States.
The organization had its begin
ming in America when Mrs. Juliette
Low assembled eight girls in Sa-
vannah, Ga, on March II, 1912.
Before this she had started a group
of Girl Scouts in Scotland. Many
countries over the world now have
Girl Guides or Girl Scouts, but all
are part Of the same organization.
Laurel Girl Scouts and Brownie
Scouts observed the anniversary
this year with two banquets, the
Girl Scout event being Wednesday
at the Masonic temple. A part of
the program was the awarding of
badges that had been earned dur
ing the past year. The Brownie
banquet was Thursday, with each
troop contributing to the interesting
program.
Sunday, March 8, the girls went
in groups to the churches of their
choice.
A Girl Scout display was arrang-
ed by committee members in a
window of the o. NJ. Void company
store. j. C. Penney company and
Vaughn Ragsdale stores of Laurel
and Coles of Billings assisted by
lending Girl Scout equipment and
models for display of the uniforms.
At the banquet the girls contrib
uted a total of $25 to the Juliette
Low memorial fund, which is now
used to aid Girl Scouts in countries
that suffered from the war.
Laurel has three Girl Scout troops
with a total membership of 60, and
four Brownie troops totaling IS.
Counting Brownies, Scouts and adj
llts who hold membership in the
national Girl Scout organization,
Laurel has a grand total of 185.
A spokesman said the Girl Scout
association here, sponsored by the
American Legion Auxiliary, wishes
70 thank ] C. Penney company,
Vaughn-Ragsdale, D. j. Cole COM
pany of Billings and o. M. Void
company for their assistance when
The Girl Scouts exhibited displays,
also the Veterans of Foreign Wars
for candy used at the banquets, and
Laurel fire department.
At the Girl Scout banquet, serv-
ed by ladies of the Eastern Star,
Audrey Moon was toastmistress.
Program numbers consisted of an
address of welcome by Kay Staiger;

Sounds Last Call
For Disabled Veterans

The United States Army is bring
ing to an end this month the OPP
portunity which it has been offer
ing wounded men to re-enlist. it
was announced this week by Maj.
Harold E. Dalness.
March 81 has been set as the
deadline after which no further ap-
plicants will be considered, Major
Dalness said. He urged that all
those eligible get in touch with their
local recruiting station immediate
ly.
Under the plan, which is now be-
ing terminated, hundreds of army
jobs falling into 103 different clas-
sifications, were thrown open for
enlistment to partially disabled vet
Grams of World war II, who were
wounded in combat.
OF the 103 covered by the plan,
only % require experience. AL
though experience is desirable in
the other 80, it is not essential
since those who meet the revised
physical requirements VIII be given
the training necessary to make them
efficient in the job to which they
are assigned.
Disabled veterans in gratifying
numbers have welcomed the oppor-
tunity of returning to uniform and
a regular salary, instead of remain
ing dependent upon their govern
ment pension" Major Dalness said.
They've made good soldiers, too"
he added, land we are anxious that
all those who have not yet done so
be given an opportunity to re-enlist
before the March 81 deadline.
He pointed out that while govern
pensions are suspended during
the period of enlistment, applica-
for reinstatement may be
made Immediately the disabled vet
eran is again discharged.

These benefits to customers will depend,
too, on uninterrupted production at reason
able wage levels. This is not a program that
can be carried out if it is hampered by strikes
or work stoppages.
Our employees have had substantial in
creases in pay, and wage questions are cur
rently being discussed with many of the unions
with which we deal. Stockholders have re-
centlyhad an increase individend rate. Having
considered the interests of these two groups,
we are now making these price reductions for
the benefit of the third group-our customers.
Business, to our way of thinking, has a So
cial as we'll as an economic responsibility. This
company has long followed the policy of OPP
Grating in the interests of three groups-its
customers, its employees and its stockholders.
The duty of the management is to see that
equal justice is lone as between the three
groups.
This price reduction program is another
demonstration of our policy in action.

International Harvester
announces 100000 price reductions

We believe there is nothing more important to
this country than to lower the prices of the
goods that people buy.
The American people have insisted that the
government withdraw from its attempts to
control prices in peacetime. That places the
responsibility where it belongs-in the hands
of business and industry. Not all business can
reduce prices now. Not all can reduce by the
same amount.
Our compan has felt a duty to act as
promptly as possible. In our case, the bust
ness outlook now makes it possible to move
toward the goal of lower prices. The only way
out of the vicious circle of higher and higher
prices is to break through.
We have taken this step not because of
present competitive conditions nor because of
a drop in demand from customers. We have
taken it because of four belief that ANY PRICE
IS TOO HIGH IF 1T CAN BE REDUCED.
These reductions, which will save the users
of our products approximately $20,000,000 a
year, will become effective before April l, and
will apply to a selected list of tractor, farm
machine, motor truck, and industrial power
products. Since we lose money on a few of our
products, and barely break even on some
others, these reductions will not apply to our
entire line. Reductions will be made indi-
vidually on products. Some will be cut more
han Others. Exact details will be announced
as soon as possible.
Our ability to maintain this lower level of
prices will depend in part or what happens to
the prices and flow of materials that we buy
from others. Because we believe price reduc-
ton is vital, we are willing to assume the risks
that are involved.
