BE HONEST ABOUT TAXES

Society, as we know it, could not be
perpetuated without government. Wheth-
er IT is the best, the best possible, or only
fair, the continuance of peaceful lives,
the carrying on of farming, business and
commerce, or any of the hundred and one
necessary modern activities, require law
and order, established processes, protec-
tive safeguards and the cooperation which
is only possible through government.
Regardless of some waste, and waste
can't be entirely avoided, the average citi-
zen gets more for his dollars paid in tax
eS than for any other expenditure he
makes. The average family head doesn't
pay as much taxes as his children cost
the government for their education, if he
has mOderate-sized family. All the rest
of the benefits from government he re-
ceives, over and beyond that!
Governments can't operate without
some money and taxes are necessary.
Every citizen should be willing to pay his
prOpOrtionate share of the common cost
of these beneficial services. The growing
disposition on the part of many to beat
taxes" should be frowned upon. 1t is
little hard to grasp how an otherwise
honest, upright man can defend in his con-
science, for example, successful subter-
fuge, or deceit, to cheat the government
out of income, or other taxes.
On the other hand, every effort should
be made by tax officials to equalize taxes
Every citizen is entitled to fair treatment
and should not be called on to pay pro-
pOrtiOnately more or less than his neigh
bors do. Yet, the task of perfect equaliza-
ton is difficult, just as hard to maintain
after its accomplishment, in view of the
changing factors involved.
Notwithstanding the many centuries
during which various governments have
collected taxes, the problem still calls for
the thought and effort of good citizens.

VIEWING THE SITUATION

Nothing that could DE called alarm is
disturbing the business world However,
there is a great deal less unqestioning be-
lief that the postwar boom is going to con-
tinue for an indefinite period to come.
A good many of the signs are pointing
downward now. There was noticeable
drop in employment during the last months
of l94S, and jobs are nowhere near as easy
to find as they once were. AS 1949 opened,
prices were lower than at the beginning of
the preceding year-the first time that has
happened in 10 years. One automobile
manufacturer announced substantial cut
in production, due to the fact that new cars
were piling up in their dealers ware
houses
In almost all lines, more and more
consumer caution has been evident Saw
ings are down, and installment purchasing
has increased. In enterprises which live on
luxury neutrality-suspicious. vacation
travel furs and jewelry. etc.,-the drop in
business has been relatively heavy.
This poses question which only time
can answer. Is the decline from the post
war peak simply normal and inevitable
following an avalanche of spending for
goods which were completely unobtain-
able for years? Or is it the start of seri-
Gus business setback that could run into
real depression? Most of the economists
still favor the first view. But they have
their fingers crossed.
One theory holds that depression of
the extreme type, such as that of the '3Os,
is no longer possible-that the government
is now geared to Immediately prime the
pump and through spending and various
controls keep the machine ticking at good
rate until normal economic forces for the
better could again take over But that is
strictly theory, and no one really knows
how it would work out in practice
The change in the business picture,
small as it has been, seems to be making
itself felt in some congressional circles AS
an example, a considerable list of law
makers, including many on the Democratic
side, look with little favor on. more taxes
either on individuals or corporations, on
the grounds that they might act as a deter
rent to production and plant expansion.
There is also strong sentiment against
complete repeal of the Taft-Hartley Act
and a return to the Wagner Act. because
of the danger that another wave of strikes
and other labor-management disputes
might result. This sentiment, incidentally,
seems. to be shared to some extent by men,
bers of Mr.. Truman's official family.

Negev Territory Dispute
Breaks Out Between Israel
And Egyptian Representatives

TEL AVN, (JTA) = The U.N.
chief of staff in Palestine, Gen.
William Riley was attempting
this week to iron out a dispute
which has arisen between Israel
and Egyptian Army units in the
Negev over the disposition of an
area south of the armistice lines.
The Hashomer Hatzair news
paper "Al Hamishnar" reported
this week that so-called Arab
vengeance gangs" are murder
ing and terrorizing Arabs in
northern Israel who are cooper
ating with Jews in land transac-
tons or who are maintaining
contact with Jews" Despite
such almost daily occurrences,
the paper adds, responsible civil
and military authorities persist
in considering them as ordinary
offenses. A high-ranking Army
officer is quoted by Al Hamish-
mar as declaring that there are
Undoubtedly political motives
behind" the attacks.
In one outstanding case, the
paper reports, Mohamed Ali
Saud, principal land sales agent
for the Jewish National Fund,
was murdered in the village of
Tamarah. In another attack, 80
heads of cattle were stolen from
an elder of the village of DER
Al Assad = situated on the Acre
Safed road-because of alleged
collaboration" with the Israelis.
Tension in northern Galilee is
increasing the paper adds, noting
that increased inhabitants of that
region have urged an immediate
investigation and apprehension of
the gang members.

troit; and VICAR, Cleveland.

porary basis pending the coming
