March of Dimes
Supported By
Entertaining World

Names made famous by unique
contributions to the pleasure of the
world have always given generous
ly of time, talent and funds in sup
port of the March of Dimes.
Prominent among the many con-
tributing artists are the Chariot
eers, King Cole Trio, Nellie Lutch-
er, Bill Robinson, Kenneth Spen'
Ger, The Mariners, Wings Over
Jordan, Duke Ellington and Band,
the late Jimmie Lunceford and his
Band, and host of other warm
and generous-spirited artists.
The 1948 March of Dimes marks
the tenth anniversary of the Ma
tional Foundation for Infantile Par

even, to forcing oIdsters to give
the state Ieins on their homes, if
they have any, reduction in the
allowance, and forcing the chill
dren of the old people to support
their parents.
Labor will oppose practically all
of the proposed changes, on the
ground that the state is doing no
thing for these old people. In ad
dition to government money for the
program, which the people pay, tax
payers of Arizona provide the other
money. The sales tax was passed
for the purpose of taking care OF
our old people. That money is now
being used to pay the taxes of large
corporations. If all sales tax money
was used to provide old age pen
sions, each worthy citizen could be
getting $100 per month now.
If it is not to be used for the
purpose for which it was intend
ed, then labor will do everything
possible to abolish it and get
new start on a program that will
provide for the people who lab
ored long years of low wages, and
were unable to provide for their
old age.

Well Folks:-
see by yesterdays paper that
Phoenix was the warmest spot in
the nation. ! was just talking long
distance with my brother in Ohio
and he said that they have about
two inches of snow and that it is
down to about 21 degrees and still
showing. Not very good beer and
pop selling weather and as we have
about 20 different brands of beer
to sell, bottles, quarts or cans
! think that ! had best stay right
here and have it nice and cold and
ready for you when you need it
these nice warm days.
A friend of ours just dropped by;
he was out distributing notices of
the Benefit Bazaar being held for
the benefit of the Kemp Rest
Home. We believe that to be a
very worthy cause and it will get
our whole hearted support. If you
care to contribute anything, food,
clothing or cash they will certainly
appreciate it. If you are unable to
get down there with it, bring it
here. We at Reddys' Corner will
see to it they get your contribution.
Folks! We have started 1948 off
with a bang! Or maybe it Is just
a continuation of 1947 in that that
year was an aII-time high year. We
want to take this occasion to thank
all of you for helping us and to
assure you that we are going to
continue to have as varied a stock
as is possible and to give to you
the same speedy, friendly, cour-
teous service in the future as we
have in the past.
Thanks,
