Which Taxes Are Too High?
Washington. One Of the main
planks in the States Rights Party
platform was abolition of the fed
eral income tax This was the tic

the former Internal Revenue
chief. ran for President
Andrews and his followers were
barely able 10 muster a corporars

effect of their propaganda fingers
on. Only the other day, Ernest C,
Swigert, the highly respectable in
coming president of the National
Association OF Manufacturers, said
there was little bit Of the Com
munist Manifesto" in our income
tax laws.
Private information In the
possession OF the congressional
finance committees indicates
that a full.scale campaign to
abolish the income tax will soon
be getting under way. Since no
body likes TO pay taxes, this
campaign may make some head
way.
In some states, the Andrews
party is also vehemently preach
ing continuance of racial segrega-
ton. The combination of these
two emotional issues could prove
explosive.
In checking around with tax ex-
perts we were amazed to discover
that some of the worst tax in
equities are in state and local
taxes, rather than in the federal
income tax. Notwithstanding its
many loopholes.
State and local taxes now total
S26 billion a year. The federal in
come tax totals SOS billion. But so
per cent of this goes for military
preparations or to pay off the
cost OF previous wars. In 1856 only
SIS billions was spent for civilian

While the anti-income tax
propagandists are concentrating
their fire ON federal income tax

many state legislatures TO In

the growing anti-Asian sentiment.

Soothing Syrup

Whatever else IS wrong with the
federal income tax, 1t does make
some effort to tax on the basis
Of ability to pay. Thus families
with incomes over $4,000 a year
paid out 14.6 per cent of total in
come in federal taxes. Those with
incomes under $4,000 paid only 81
per cent.
But state and local taxes took
81 per cent bite out of the
workingman's salary, and only
2.2 per cent out Of the wealthy
mans pocket book.
Now the NAM. and allied
groups propose to make things
worse by pushing for higher local
taxes, i.e., sales taxes, payroll
taxes, tobacco levies and other
imposts on goods and services.
They argue that such taxes only
cost a few pennies"
Since everyone, regardless of in
come, must buy food. clothing,
fuel and other basic needs it's OBJ
vious that these penny-a-day taxes
will hit those with low income, or
fixed income, the hardest. That
apparently is the purpose of all
the syrupy propaganda, but it is
well-camouflaged.

Here's a tip for Dogwood lovers

We are recommending to you
now that when you find a nice
blooming young Dogwood in the
woods. dig it up. carry it home.
and set it out where you want
1T. Many people are having good
luck moving them during the
blooming season, however, they
must be small Dogwoods to move.
Dogwoods are extremely suscep-
tlble to sun scald so after they
are set in your yard. I would sug-
.gest that YOU wrap the trunk
and longer branches with burlap
or a heavy paper, fasten it Sc
curcly around the trunk. and
heavy limbs with cord. Leave
the cover on the tree until it rots
or wears out.
All during the summer YOU
should guard against dry weather
because a number of Dogwoods
will die from lack of moisture
This can be handled either of two
ways but it would be a good idea
to mulch around the tree 3 to
6 inches deep and the mulch
will help to conserve moisture
and help the Dogwood to get
started.

too many empty cans are found
around too many farmsteads in
Columbus County and the sooner
farmers start eating at home the
more money it will mean for

as clothing, equipment.

and the garden is gone and the
majority of the garden work is
done with tractors now. There
fore. 1t is necessary that these
tractors have room enough to
turn around or they will not be
of too much use. My suggestion
is that you plan your garden
that you will need, prepare n
good seed bed, secure the variety
of seed that you want, fertilize
and lime YOUR garden well, cul-
tivate enough to control the
weeds, do what you can to con-
troll insects and diseases, irrigate
if necessary, and your garden
will pay off in cash dividends.
It's time to face the facts in
sweet potato production and I'M
less the farmers are willing to
do something about the supply
of seed they have and unless
they are willing to go to the
trouble of checking their seed
they are willing to treat their
seed potatoes before bedding, I'M
less they are willing to throw
out all potatoes that are off
color both internally and extern
ally and those that show Black
Rot and Scurf - unless farmers
are willing to do these things,
sweet potatoes are on the way
out.
The public is demanding bet
ter quality products and the only
way Columbus County can ship
better quality potatoes is for
the farmer to produce better
quality potatoes. Too many
farmers have been more interest
ed in cutting corner, making big
yields. and cutting costs, than
in producing a better product.
Seed treating stations are
available to every potato grower
and good seed are available to
the majority of growers. Those

seed can certainly get some good

New Navy Device
Picks Up Froemen
In Three Seconds

NORFOLK, Va, Aug. 8 (R.-
The Navy has unveiled a new
device for recovering frogmen.
In the first public demonstra-
ton, an underwater demolition
team showed a new slingshot
type device that catapults q
swimmer from, the water into a
fast-moving boat in three Sec
onds or less. The device is being
tried as a method of speeding
up recovery of men who have
been on a mission such as a dem
clifton assignment.
The new system employs pre-
tenSioned cord. The cord is at
tached to a boom fixed to the
rescue craft and extending over
a towed rubber life raft. At the
free end of the cord is a loop OF
snare for the swimmer to grasp
as the boat passes him.
The force of the swimmers &C.
celeration from zero speed in the
water to the speed of the boat
stretches the cord like a rubber
band and snaps the swimmer
into the lifeboat.
