Survey Reveals
Business Taxes
Fall ON Public

The influence of taxes on the
American family. will be upper
most in the minds of Congress
for the next few weeks. They
are seeking the answer to this
$64-queStion:
How can they satisfy in
creaSing public demands for
tax reduction and at the same
time find other taxes to offset
such a reduction? Their prob
lem is made doubly hard by
the fact that Uncle Sam wants
to spend $512 billion above his
income next year.
The Council of State Cham
berS of Commerce recently
pointed up the problem in a
special study by its Washington
research staff. It found that
the $4OK billion in all taxes
collected by the federal govern
ment last year came from these
sources: 441a per cent from
personal income taxes, 28Ka per
cent from corporation income
taxes, 6 per cent from social
security taxes and the balance
of 81 per cent from a great var
iety of excise and miscellaneous
taxes.
A tax study issued this
month by the Bookings Insti-
tuition, an impartial research
organization, revealed that

der way to double the irrigated
acreage in the state. While
there has been ample water for
present irrigation projects, the
placing of more land under ir-
rigation will require more eff
ficient use of water in the fu-
ture on all projects.
The new bulletin is entitled
simply, Irrigation, and copies
may be obtained at the county
extension office, Jacobsen said,

three fifths of all manufac-
turing corporations take the
corporate income tax into ac-
count in determining the prices
of their products. This means
that the consumer pays a large
part of corporation taxes too.
Ernest Breech, executive vice
president of Ford Motor Co., in
reply to a question whether the
price of cars would go down if
his company's taxes were cut,
said,
Certainly it would cut prices.
In the lone run, every corpor-
alton must price it's products so
as to make a reasonable return
after taxes in order to survive
and grow. In the final analysis,
income taxes are just as much
a cost of doing business as pay
roll"
A group of Congressman, do
ing some rough figuring on
their own recently, concluded
that a family of three persons
with an income of $4,000 pays
$201.60 of that income in cor
poration income taxes which
are included in the prices of
the things they buy. A family
of four with an income of
$4,000 pays $4,000 and the
same sized family with an in
come of $500 pays $414.

Health Dept, Begins
| Campaign June Il

Starting July 81, the Holmes
County Health Department, figu-
ratively speaking, will start its
fight against dragon - the
dreadful disease of syphilis, kill
er of more men, women and chill
dren than the world wars.
This battle will be in the form
of education and blood-tests. The
former campaign will begin on
July 81 at 7:30 p. m. at the Sweet
Kingdom Church, and viii con-
tinue every night at various
churches, schools and houses
throughout the county. On Mon
day, July "a, the blood testing
battle will be launched at 900 a
m. on the Big Egypt Plantation
These blood-testing clinics will
follow the night educational
meetings at an interval of abou,
two days, where they will be
set up in the immediate vicinity
of the preceding movie.
Today Mississippi has two free
treatment centers to which in
fected persons may 60. Free
transportation to and from the
centers is also provided.
The cure for this disease is
very simple. Our great problem
is finding it and bringing it &c
treatment.
If we can educate the people
to the belief that everyone should
have a blood test every six
months, then and only then, car
we Stay this dragon, syphilis.

The Makrohori protest COMPETE
ton is more than an art project
according to its sponsors. 'The
forceful abduction of $50 children
from the little Hill town in Mace
donia, is only one example of
hundreds of mass-kidnappings
, that have been, and are still being
carried ON by communists. If such
awful things are allowed to take
place anywhere, they could hap

Casteel in accepting the chair
manship.
The task of raising at least
$500 should not be too difficult,
the committee feels. The move
ment is not only humanitarian,
and democratic, it is in defense OF

iversal.
If more money is obtained than
the prizes and mechanics of the
enterprise require, according to
Mrs. Jack Barton, Colony presi.
dent, it will be devoted to fur

known, since it has been impos-

no protest as each little one was

scrupulous enemy.
Originating in Canton, the pro-
test may spread, through the in

parenthood throughout the world.
The sobbing of homesick little
