ACCEPTANCE OF SUBSIDIES
HASN'T BEEN JUSTIFIED
Private power companies have
never justified their postwar ac-
ceptance of these huge subsidies
under the guise of defense effort.
Tax write-off program dates back
to World War III when President
Roosevelt was forced to institute
the program to guarantee. profits
for private industry, which was re-
luctant to expand to meet the war
effort for fear of postwar finan-
cial loss.
The tax write-off plan died after
World War III, and was reactivated
during the Korean war. The tax write
off certificates again died in Deem
Der of 1868, but the Eisenhower Adj
reactivated it once more
in April, 1866.
From the period of the Korean
War until December 1853, when tax
write-offs were Suspended, ODM
awarded $1.9-billion in tax write-offs
for electric facility expansion to pow
or companies. Using methods recon-
nended by the tax department of

rate power company clients, the COM

CURES OF MENTAL ILLNESSES NEXT MAJOR
GOAL OF MEDICAL RESEARCH
BY CONG. LEE METCALF

With development of the Salk vac.
cine against polio, medical research,
ers will move on to the grave national
problem of mental illness.
An estimated 100000 people,
more than one of every z of us, in
the United States are suffering from
some form of mental illness. 1t is
estimated that one out of every II
persons in this nation will spend
some part of his life in mental
hospital.
Caring for our mentally i'll is an
expense shared by all taxpayers. For
over 81 billion in public funds is
spent each year for the care and
treatment of the mentally i'll. Almost
$3.50 of all mental patients are in
public hospitals-thos operated by
states, counties, cities and the Vet
Grams Administration. My little over
go of our mental patients are cared
for in private institutions.
Last year, the overall cost of
mental illness in the United States
was estimated at nearly So billion.
In one field alone, caring for the
mentally i'll in VA hospitals, the ,
cost is up 5000 10 years, from
$44 million in 1945 to more than
5000 million in 1854.
In sharp contrast to this huge
problem and this immense cost to all
of us is the insignificant sum spent
on psychiatric research. During 1854,
federal, state and private expendi-
lures for such research totaled only
a little over $40 million.
Claims that government should stay
out of medical research, that private
funds and voluntary agencies will do
The job, are not born out by statistics.
rwo-thirds of the money spent for
mental health research last year
came from our federal government.
Nearly one-third came from our 48
state governments. The major nation
Il voluntary agency in the field spent
| little over $4,000.
AS an example of the contrast be-
ween the huge cost of mental i'll

COOP AUDITOR SUGGESTS
CORPORATE TAX REPEAL

OMAHA-(CNS)-A coop auditor
here suggested Congress repeal the
corporate income tax as a way out
of difficulties that Treasury Secre-
tary George M. Humphrey pointed to
last month.
Humphrey said some non-cash farm
coop refunds aren't taxed when the
patron gets them. j. H. Bolin, mana
ger of Auditing Service for Co-opera-
tives, agreed, "This is difficult sit
uation demanding, in all fairness,
thorough study and correction" He
pointed out that some of these re-
funds-those on consumer goods
"aren't taxable under any circum-
stances"
Repeal of the corporate income
tax" Bohlin said, "is the one way
real tax equality can be accomp-
lished." The corporate income tax is
paid by consumers anyway in higher
prices, he said.
The corporate income tax brought
the U. S. Treasury $21H billion in
1954-31% of is total revenues.

Today I am going to give you
q few exercises which are cor
rective to some Of the most
usual defects in leg contour.
Thigh slimming: Lie on the
floor on your back with your
arms resting on the floor a
little away from your sides.
Lift your left leg upward as
high as you can. Cross your
body with your left leg and
touch the floor on the right
side of your body with your left
toe. Now lift your left leg UP
high, swing across your body to
touch the floor on the right side
of your body with your left toe.
and then make as large a
circle as you can to the left
while bringing the left leg
down to place. After using
the left leg for a while do the
same thing with your right leg.
Thigh development or firm
ing: Deep knee bends are fine
for this If you will keep your
back erect (not bend forward
at the waist). If you cannot
do this without help. place your
hands on the wall or on the
back of a chair.
II you wish to build up on the
inside of the upper leg, do the
following: Lie on the floor on
your back, legs resting on the
floor Drag your legs apart as
far as comfortable. Ask a
member of your family to place
their hands on the insides of
your feet. Ask them to resist
as you try to drag your legs
back to starting position.

again today because 1t is the
very best one ! know. Lie on

straight. Lift the left leg with
a stiff knee and pulled the toe
back toward your head. Do
this carefully. It will be pain
full If done too suddenly and
strenuously. Lower left leg
to the floor. Do the same
thing with your right leg.
Continue, alternating left and
right.
Calf development: A course
in a dancing class would help.
However. If you are not going
to do that. do this-stand with
your toes pointing forward.
rise as high as you can on your
toes, lifting your heels far
from the floor; hold for a few
moments; slowly lower your
heels to the floor. Do this
about Is times morning and
night to start and gradually
build up until you are doing
this exercise about so times
morning and night.
It will take several months
before you see a difference.

show a gain.
