Sitter Taxes
Loom Ahead

NEW YORK (LPA)-Ameri-
cans are losing the battle against
initiation. What's more they'll
keep on losing it unless they're
prepared to accept stiffer taxes
and stricter credit curbs and
are ready to increase produc-
tion.
That's what Economic Stabili-
cation Director Lewis Valentine
told the Economic Club here
Nov. is. To help win the fight,
he urged patriotic self-control
on the part of business, labor
and the public.
If mild weapons won't work,
Valentine declared, the govern
ment won't hesitate to impose
outright wage and price con-
trolls.
"We ask business and indus
try to apply voluntary controls
to prices" the stabilization chief
said. "Is it not reasonable that
we ask labor to apply, with
equal firmness, voluntary re-
straints to wage increases?"
"WilI it be business or labor
which will set the nation the
first examples of restraint, and
thus break the upward spiral of
initiation? If neither sets the ex-
ample what alternative has gov
ernment to price and wage con-
trols?"

Things You've
Always Known
Til Now, Dept.

NEW YORK (LPA) - The
rags -to-riches dream of very
American boy was ripp e d to
shreds here by an enterprising
reporter who has proved that
it's pretty hard to save million
dollars out of your salary.
He made a survey of num-
ber of people, mostly million
aires, after that old benchwarn1-
er Bernard Baruch cracked that
anyone can still become a mil
lionaire."
It's impossible to pile up a
million iron men if you depend
on the old paycheck alone be-
cause when you get making real
dough Uncle Sam steps in and
walks away with as much as 85
percent of it.
An accountant suggested that
the magic figure might be reach
ed by speculation in real estate
or food because only 25 per-
cent capital gains tax must be
paid on such deals.
OF course there's always the
black market - or opium snug
Cling or a captaincy on the
New York police force.
