Introduces Bill To
Provide Revenue

Legislation providing for 81,
000,000,000 additional new rev.
enue without increasing the
tax load of any individual or
company that is now contribute
ing to the Treasury receipts
was introduced in the House
recently by representative Noah
NJ. Mason, Republican Of Him
OILS.
Mr.. Mason, a member OF the
Ways and Means committee,
told the House today that his
amendment might well be en-
titled "a bill to raise one bill
lion dollars of revenue for the
United States Treasury" The
bill would close the loopholeS
by which cooperatiVes and
other tax-free businesses en-
gagged in competitive CONNER
cial activities are escaping fed
eral income taxation.
Some five and a half years
ago, Mr. Mason recalled, the
Ways and Means committee re-
commended that taX-exempt
organizations and corporations
that were engaged in CONNER
cial business should be required
to make annual reports to the
Bureau of Internal Revenue.
The committee stated that
many of these exempt corpor-
atoms and organizations are di-
rectly competing with compan-
les required to pay income
taxes, and this practice is be-
coming more widespread and
affording a loophole for tax
evasion and avoidance
Mr.. Mason said the fear ex-
pressed by the committee in
1943 has come true and that
today "at least half a dozen
kinds of business which are en-
gagged in competitive CONNER
cial activities count federal in
come tax exemptions as one of
their most important ways OF
making money" Among these
he listed in addition to coop
GEdGlVGS, UdA-lICG ll"lSblGuIiOllS
which have bought prosperous
taxpaying factories and then
taken them off the tax rolls
to the dismay of the Bureau
of Internal Revenue" Others
are the ."so-called charitable
trusts, which he said "have
been set up purely for the pur-
pose of receiving income and
passing it on, tax free, into
parent companies"

Forming Should Be
Mode Attractive

Farming should be made at
tractive to intelligent rural
young people according to
Montana Agriculture Commits
sioner Albert r. Anderson, who
spoke at a Farmers day pro-
gram in Manhattan recently.
He added that to maintain
permanent productivity of the
land while using 1t for maxi
mum economic production, the
following program is needed:
Provide an adequate and sta
BILE income for the farm people
and greater security through
ownership. Create a love for
the soil, brought about through
education, stressing our depen-
dence upon it."
The profession of acting was

The National Safety Council an
nually points out that the Christ
mas holidays are the most danger
u of the year, usually replete
with casualties, home accidents,
fires and falls.
The council has listed the follow
ing ''don'ts" and precautions which
if remembered will help make this
Christmas season a safe one:
The Christmas tree shouldn't be
placed near a stove or fireplace.
Don't give children any toys
that could prove dangerous,
such as those with sharp points.
II toys are operated with cleo
tricity, be sure some grownup
s~upervises their use.
The Christmas tree should not be
decorated with lighted candles.
Carefully-wired electric bulbs de-
finitely are much safer.
Don't leave a lighted tree I'M
guarded at any time. One should
be on the lookout for fire all the
time the tree is lighted. Especially
dangerous is the practice OF some
families in leaving the Christmas
tree lighted and unmatched all
night long.
One should never use . rick
