To the Editor:
The new Progressive Party
put in the forefront Henry A.
Wallace as candidate for Presi-
dent in the next election in
1913.
Pardon me, gentlemen, this
is not a third party; it is a
Peoples Peace Party because
Mr.. Wallace raises high the
banner of peace and prosperity
which the leaders of both par
ties trampled on, and the mass
es of the United States and of
the entire world are longing
for peace because they have
had enough destruction in the
last war.
Those who are saying, "What
is the use of voting for Wal
lace since he h asn't got
chance of being elected?,"
should consider that if the
Progressive Party polls a ire
mendous vote, it will be con-
sidered a moral victory for the
people and consequently the
Republicans and the Democrats
will not dare to make war be-
cause they will be afraid of
the wrath of the public in view
of such big demonstration for
peace by the voters.

Income taxes
To the Editor:

To the Editor:
Present income tax laws as
sess all earnings over 1888 a
week.
Chicago Welfare Bureau es-
Inmates one PERSONS "b a s i C
needs" as SLABS a week; at
which a person could barely
survive, at flophouse rates for
board and room.
This, however, is also the
status to which white collar
workers are being reduced due
TO the mounting cost of living
and income taxes.
Department store employees
and office workers are sup
posed to live up to their posi-
tion," hence they strive, in a
pitiful way, to ape the fashions,
manners, and morals of cinema
stars.
However, at present prices,
any person, depending on his
own earnings alone, will find
himself living more like an
ascetic on 5000 a month, and
will be forced to give up his
hard earned war-bonds to pay
his income taxes.
Two might live cheaper
than one, for income tax pur-
poses, if they could find flats
to live in, but even so we would
like to see the senator who can
tell us how to live on less than
5000 a month exclusive OF
taxes.

To the Editor:
We hear that Russia has de-
f1ated her currency to reduce
black market profits, to mop
up German money.
The English, fearing defla-
ton, are boarding silver. The
Greeks are gathering gold SOW
ereigns. They fear deflation.
US. bankers are asking for
the return of the gold standard,
so they may exchange their
inflated paper credit, money
for gold to hoard. Russia de-
flated deliberately.
When, as must come, della
ton strikes other countries
unawares, can they-and we
justify our present unconcern?

Voice Of Freedom
To the Editor:

To the Editor:
The interesting and impor-
tant letter written by L. E.
Kautt in your issue of Jan. II
has been brought to our notice.
The damage done to the
cause of peace by false state
ments on the radio is SO far
reaching that a prompt and
effective correction is impera-
tive.
This committee agrees with
Mr.. Kautt that every effort
should be made to have factual
misstatements about Russ a
corrected in such a way that
the correction can be heard by
the same radio audiences who
are now being fed so many
half truths and innuendoes
leading to fear and ultimately
war.
Radio stations are bound by
the terms governing their Ii
censes to provide balanced pro-
grams and to allot time for the
discussion of all sides of con-
troversial issues.
But it is up to the listeners
to insist upon their rights and
we therefore suggest that as
many of your readers as pos
sible write to their local sta
tons making their viewpoint
known and demanding to have
the other side of the Russian
problem heard.
The Voice of Freedom Com
mittee has organized a system
of Listening Monitors who
pledge themselves to keep sta
tons and sponsors informed of
their reactions to p rogramS,

Dempsey-Tunney
To the Editor:

To the Editor:
Your comparison of Jack
Dempsey and Gene Tunney
was all wrong as Tunney could
beat this second-rater seven
days a week when Dempsey
was at his best.
To show that Dempsey was
one of the worst of all times,
one has only to look at his fight
with Tommy Gibbons and Car
pentier.
He could not do anything to
little Tommy Gibbons while
Tunney knocked him out and
the only reason the little French
middleweight did not knock
out Dempsey in the second
round was that he allowed
Dempsey to regain conscious
ness after he had Dempsey out
on his feet.

Aggression Question

U. n, Warren Says
BY the Assoeiofsd Press

LINCOLN, Nebr., Mar. 23.-Gov.
Earl Warren of California has asked
If it is not about time" to submit
the question of aggression to the
United Nations fairly and squarely
without fear of consequences"
Gov. Warren was interrupted by
applause from a Nebraska Repub-
lican Founders Day audience last
night when he declared that even
though the test" of the U. N.
Should mean a breaking apart and
reorganization of the United Ma
tions, I would accept that rather
than watch Europe become subju-
gated piecemeal, while we sit at the
Council table with the aggressor
and piously recite the principles of
the United Nations Charter"
why not have it fought out
around the Council table" he asked,
"and let the world know-at least
the free worldwide the aggressors
are, what their conduct is, and that
their actions will not be tolerated."
Gov. Warren said this would end
aggression because no country can
stand the scorn of unified world
opinion"
