Hits Tax system

Briefly. this is what I mean
The solid rock on which our
forefathers built our nation is the
Divine precept Of the equality Of
man under government. In our
country today under our present
tax system, this equality is grossly
denied. The greatest sector Of our
people, the great wage-earning
middle class. is being ground to
pieces by our unfair tax burden
and unjust tax system. This one OF
the chief Marxiat plans Is being
applied to destroy the nation.

Rough Weather Slows Plans for South Pole Base

AUCKLAND, New Zealand, R Blizzard conditions and sub zero temperatures in the antarc- tic are retarding American plans for air-dropping men and mater ials at the South Pole to establish a scientific base.
 Wind-driven snow on the Mo Murdo ice landing strip on the Ross Sea is reducing visibility enough to force some US. Air Force Globemasters carrying equipment to turn back to their Christchurch base.
 The US. Navy icebreaker Gla- cier is battling thru a 200-mile barrier of pack ice 1,200 miles north of McMurdo. First priority when weather permits is the building of an intermediate air strip on Beardmore Glacier en- route to the South Pole to aid Navy aircraft attempting to land Seabee teams and equipment at the Pole.
 AS soon as construction parties land at the Pole the Globemasters will begin a major airdrop involv- ing 500 tons of base building gear and machinery, including a l3,- 000-pound tractor.
 Capt. Leland Bearskin expects to leave tomorrow for McMurdo Sound in a Globemaster carrying most of the key men and execu- tives for the polar airdrop.
