Board Chairman
Protests Truman's
Wage Boost OK.

WASHINGTON, R)-President
Truman's wage board chairman
quit his job Thursday in protest
over the Presidents approval of
an extra wage boost for coal
miners above and beyond the
recommendations of all top de-
tense agency officials.
Archibald Cox, chairman of the
Wage Sterilization Board, waited
only overnight to resign. He made
no formal statement.
The Truman action, while it
was counter to recommendations
of his sterilization lieutenants,
did assure a year Of peace in the
coal mines.
The President late Wednesday
approved the full $190 daily wage
increase for John L. Lewis 375,-
900 soft coal miners. He said he
didn't want President-elect Eisen-
hover to have a coal strike crisis
on his hands when he takes office.
While the move averted an al
most certain strike, it opened the
door to boost in coal prices to
consumers and touched off unrest
among public and industry mem
bers of the wage board. The board
majority had held that a wage
boost beyond $3.50 would be in
flationary.
WSB Chairman Cox, a 40-year-
old Harvard law professor, has
been in office for four months. He
succeeded Nathan P. Feinsinger,
whose actions in the steel case
last summer resulted in Congress
passing law restricting the pow
ers of the WSB.

CAB to Reopen Hearings
On Passenger, Cargo Rates
From Seattle to Alaska
ZAP Special Washington Service,

WASHINGTON - The Civil
Aeronautics Board decided We'd
nesday to reopen Dec. 16 its hear
ings on airline passenger and car
60 rates between Alaska and the
Pacific Northwest.
Examiner Pa VI N. Pfeiffer
granted requests for a rehearing
filed by Northwest Airlines, Pac-
ific Northern Airlines, Air Trans
port Associates and the CABS
Bureau OF Air Operations.
The rehearing will permit testi-
mCny on the effect of the recently
established Ocean Van Line ex-
press and refrigerated cargo SER
vice between Seattle and Anchor
age and Fairbanks, Alaska.
Pfeiffer said that if the new
water ground service reduces Al
aska's need for expanded air car
90 service from Portland and Sc
attic, there may be need for
lower competitive cargo rates
rather than the same or higher
rates proposed by the carriers in
this proceeding"

Now Is The Time

Announcement made last week that the Noble
County Agricultural Society would build floral hall
the Playground.
This is improvement that has long been needed and
which should do much to add to the three day
traction in this county.
We feel that is appropriate that the floral
hall should be dedicated this since will mark the Tooth
anniversary of the Noble County fair
Members of the fair board should plan to have
unusual program celebrating this Tooth anniversary and
will be necessary to start and make plans for could
reach gigantic proportions
1t will be remembered that Monroe County observed
their Tooth anniversary last year and the fair went all
out to make the centennial celebration long to be
membered.
1t is understood that the Noble County fair board has
the thing mind and the fair year will offer manv
new and different attractions.
The floral hall will add much the display at this
celebration for in the past the merchants reluctant
to display their in tar papered building that did
nothing to enhance their showing.
This has been eliminated and the merchants the
first time, will really be looking forward to fixing up
tractve displays
The Tooth anniversary of the Noble County
In life time Now the time for the fair board take
action plan unusual and different program and make
arrangements for the centennial celebration to be an attrac-
tive
1t should be planned that all records will be bro
ken when the Noble County fair held Thursday Friday
and Saturday, Aug. %, 20 and 30th.

This Week
Washington

Despite the fact that the
American farmer is supposed to
be represented in Washington by
at least four powerful farm
organizations which have some
influence with the congress,
the farmer appears to be the for
gotten man, insofar as this con-
gress is concerned.
The American farmers are
nearing financial crisis and
need strengthened farm price
supports. At the same time, such
farm organizations as the Ameri-
can Farm Bureau Federation,
and the National Grange, to a
lesser extent, no longer repre-
sent the individual farm mem
bership so much as they repre-
sent the thinking of the big
business groups which have to
do with farm crops and pur-
chases.
Despite the recent prediction
by the department of agriculture
of another record crop for 1852,
report of the senate agricul-
ture committee shows that farm
debts have increased 100 per
cent and farm net income will
show a decrease under 1850. So
far in 1852, farm prices have
averaged three per cent lower
than the average of all 1851, and
all major purchased items are
expected to add TO a rise in pro-
duction costs.
The bureau of agriculture eco
nomics' warning that real farm
income will be three to five per
cent lower than in 1851, actually
lower than in any year during
the past 10 years, is based on a
presumption of record crops and
total cash yield which may be
slightly above the $32 billion of
last year. However, farm pro-
duction expense, which jumped
II per cent last year, is still
climbing, and price increases for
feed and fertilizer, hired labor,
taxes, interest, rents and most
other expenses will add to the
total production cost. This re-
duction in farm net income in a
period of predicted record crop
production is made in the face
of an expected rise of at least
three per cent in the total ma
tional income.
Some recognition must be
given to the national farmers
union and the lone fight it made
against congressional slashes in
the agricultural appropriation
bill, and particularly against dis
astrous cuts in the agricultural
conservation payments. The
Farm Bureau held out for a cut
from $3.50 million, as provided
in the budget, to $100 million
while the National Grange

WHEN WRITES A BOOK

That Kellems "gal' has gone
and done it again. She has writ
ten a book. What Kellems 'gal'?"
you ask. Who else but Miss Wv
len Kellems, manufacturer of
Stonington, Conn, who in l948
refused any longer to withhold
taxes from her employees. Incl
dentally, four years later she is
still pleading with the Federal
Government to indict her and
make a test case as to the con-
stitutionality of the Withholding
Tax Law.
The book is intriguingly en-
titled, Toll, Taxes and Trouble. "
In it Miss Kellems makes the
charge that the enactment of the
10Th Amendment Qncome Taxi
was grave constitutional error
and she proves her case, at least
20 ~ complete satisfaction.
Rupert Hughes, who needs no
introduction to the American
reading public, in his inimitable
style, has written an introduction
to the book. In it he says in part:
Her miss Kellem's) defiance
of the Withholding Tax Law was
/ based on a womans practical
Icommon- sense, She maintained
that she had no right to withhold
from her employees the tax the
Government deducted. Then she
put the Government in the ridic-
ulouS position of demand that she
be punished for not paying it
every week, other peoples taxes,
while still other people paid their
taxes only twice a year. She joe
keyed the Government into try
| ing to punish her for not paying
| it moneys which it had already
received long before.
From such position, so
bravely and unbudgeably upheld,
she has gone on to the high posi-
tion that the whole Income Tax
Law is un-American and should
be repealed. ...
ITO those who still believe that
the Income Tax Law serves a
good purpose; and to those who
dislike but think its repeals i'm
possible, commend the reading
of this book. | am convinced
that the reader of this book will
not only be sadder and wiser, but
will be captivated and thrilled
by it. :"
With Mr.. Hughes estimate of
Toll, Taxes and Trouble" / most
heartily agree because once
picked the book up | found it i'm
possible to put it down. Miss
Kellems proves that the Income
Tax is destroying our American
way of life and that the With
holding Tax violates the Consti-
tuition guaranty against involun-
ltary servitude. She demonstrates
that the very principle of taxing
incomes is contrary to the pro-

to the time Platter was struck by

prc-war era.
Yet great many Americans,
despite this statistical prosperity,
are going deeper and deeper into
debt. Higher incomes have been off
set and then some by higher outgo.
That is the theme Of Wall Street
Journal news article aptly headed
Debts, Debts, Debts"
The paper cites case histories
Of people its reporters interviewed
in various cities. These people rep
resent a wide range Of occupa-
tons and incomes. A Chicago steel
worker earning more than $4,000 d
year is worried and in debt the
strike intensified his troubles, but
he had them before it was called.
A Detroit couple earning $4,000 has
cut its entertainment budget in
half and hasn't saved anything for
over a year. A $4,000 a year eXecu-
tive has no debts outside of charge
accounts and a big mortgage, but
thinks he may have to buy new
fur coat for his wife on the install
ment plan. A San Francisco
stenographer said she's always $50
behind, and that her last vacation
put her $3.50 in the rcd.
These comments, the Wall Street
journal points out, square with
Federal Reserve Board figures on
outstanding consumer credit. When
last August began, the total was
$21 200, 900, 000--a record which
marked $2,OO0,OO0,OOO jump in
one year. They also fit in with a
Bureau of Labor Statistics report,
covering the 1850 financial cX-
pcrience of families in various IN
come brackets n 81 communities.
During that year the average fam
il" in this group had income after
taxes Of $4,000 and spent $4,000,
for $500 deficit.
A specifically confusing aspect
to the picture is found in the fact
that savings, as we'll as debts, are
also at record lcvels-the Com
mcrce Department finds that they

says, because this definition Of
savings, of course, includes a lot
Of things many people wouldn't
consider savings, such as repay

So the bigger u c h debts, and
the more the repayments, the n,olj
