Jfford and Mrs. Johnston's birth
lay anniversaries.

Sparks called on Lottie Brinker-
loff Monday afternoon. We were

American Is Growing Around
In Circles

A1 GAFCiES
BY the title of this column | do
not mean that Americans have
lost their sense of direction -
though in an election year we al
ways get lot of conflicting ad-
vice on whether we are going
right or left or up or down.
The circles that / refer to here
are geographical, not political. In
particular want TO call attention
to the unique new Circular" pat
terms that our hometowns are
taking on. It's all a result of what
we call Standardization" And
its meaning goes lot further
than just getting little grass
for the kids to play on" Adjust
ing to this new pattern of Amer
ican Hometowns is costing us
billions of dollars - some of it
good, some of it bad.
In our early days practically
everybody lived in the country.
There were a dozen farm families
for every city dweller, and most
of the latter lived in village.
We had q few big cities and they
were mostly concerned with
trade rather than manufacturing.
Then began our industrial rev.
olution, the likes of which no
country ever saw. Towns, cities
and great metropoli grew up
around our factories like grass
around water hole. Everything
was downtown the industrial

THIS WEEK
In
WASHINGTON

While nobody yet knows Just
what the new Federal tax law
passed by the 83rd Congress will
actually do, generally speaking
corporations come in for the lions
share of the reductions, or about
73c out of every dollar of cuts.
individuals with incomes over
$4,000 will get about 18c out of
that dollar reduction with those
under $4,000 getting about &c.
The administration in rewrit-
ing the tax law to provide for
some tax relief has been caught
on the horns of a dilemma
either cut taxes, and take a
chance, or continue the higher
tax rate and meet the military
problem. Il. decided to take a
chance. And it looks like now
that In SO doing the budget deficit
next year will further be out of
balance than it is today. The
deficit at the end of the fiscal
year was something under So bill
lion. Under the new tax law.
most certainly revenues will be
considerably lower next year. On
top of this there is every indica-
ton that defense expenditures
must be considerably stepped up
and as matter of fact there may
be some difficulty in remaining
under the debt limit, now upped
$6 billions to 1921 billion.
The only saving factor is that
the government has approx
mately $614 billions of dollars
on hand in appropriated money,
not yet spent, from which it can
draw for defense spending. Some
of these unexpended balances
date back as far as fiscal l949.
Here are the figures: Congress
in fiscal 1949 appropriated $40.8
billion and the government spent
$39.5 billion; in 1850 congress ap-
propriated $502 billion and gov
ernment spent 1895 billion; in
1851 $84.1 was appropriated and
SAL spent; in 1852 1929 billions
appropriated, 1854 spent; in
1858, $80.2 billions appropriated,

HOSPITAL QUESTION

Will the Noble County Hospi-
tai Association please answer the
following questions:
First Is it possible that
Noble county, with a population
of less than 1900, which, in
cludes the non-taxpayers, build
and maintain a $500,000 hospital,
staff of skilled surgeons and
graduate nurses, when Caldwell
is located within forty-five
minutes drive of GAINESVILLE,
Cambridge, and Marietta, where
hospitals are already equipped
with above requirements?
Secondly - If the White Cross
hospital in Columbus, where
there is population of almost
" million people and a draw
from the 88 counties of the state,
is having a real struggle to
exist, as well as many other
hospitals that we know of, just
how could a hospital for this
county expect to survive, with
the heavy taxation that this
county is already facing, aside
from the Hospital Plans of an
additional tax?
Thirdly - / wonder just how
many people of Noble county,
with a serious ailment, would
want to be sent to a hospital in
Caldwell for an operation? Does
the Hospital Association of the
county think the taxpayers are
so ignorant as to believe a $780,
90 hospital and maintenance of
same would only cost the tax
payer a penny day, which sum
would be so insipidly low, that
the citizens would be almost
ashamed not to vote for it?
WHY, Hospital Association,
pauperize a county for some
thing that would and could not
be self-maintaining?
