Some Tax Facts

stranger might find 1t hard to
understand why our local government is
so anxious to demonstrate that citizens
OF Washington are more highly taxed
than their neighborS of the Maryland
and Virginia suburbs For ordinarily
local government wants to shout about
how relatively low, not how relatively
high, its taxes are.
Not so in Washington. The ability
to prove by comparisons that taxes are
relatively high is a necessary defense.
Against whom? Against such members
of Congress as Senator Douglas of Illinois,
to take the most recent example. Sen
ator Douglas is convinced that real estate
taxes in Washington are lower than in
Maryland and Virginia. He wants to
raise them.
Senator Douglas knowSAothing about
Washington'S real estate tax, relatively
or otherwise Worse still, he knows moth
ing about the other elements which
go into making up Washington's total
local tax burden. But such ignorance
never inhibitS him, or others like him,
from reaching the most absurd conclu-
sionS regarding local taxes, and Spouting
misinformation throughout the pages
of the Record concerning what ought to
be done.
Therefore the Commissioners have
to be prepared to furnish the facts, al
though we doubt that it accompliShes
much Of value. If Senator Douglas was
interested in the facts, he would know
where to find them himself His interests
lie elsewhere. 2

bers that the project would involve an
American "giveaway" of fashionable ma
terial and that it. might somehow enable
Russia and the Communist world as
whole to gain an advantage over us in
nuclear weapons.
But all such fears have been so
thoroughly diSpelled by expert witnesses
that the Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee has approved the undertaking
without single dissent. The commit
tees only point of departure from the
administrations procedural matter
agreed to by the State Department-has
taken the form of qualification assert
ing that the United States will withdraw
from the agency If the basic treaty is
amended and If the amendment then
fails to win the Senate's approval How
ever, since the treaty already contains
essentially the same withdrawal pro-
vision. this qualification appears to be
little more than minor technically
that should in no way complicate the
establishment and operation of the IAEA.
Accordingly, as soon as our own coun-
try and few others complete the ratifi-
cation process Russia has already done
so), the 80 cooperating nations will be
able to get down to the brass tacks of
making the agency going concern. OF
course, the mere establishment of the
project will not create a better world
all of sudden. But the IAEA, If really
put to work, is bound to promote slow
but sure and steady improvement in the
material well-being of peoples every
where.

Good Atomic News

Despite earlier doubts about the mat
ter, it seems certain now that the Senate
will soon vote overwhelmingly in favor
of ratifying the treaty for the Inter
national Atomic Energy Agency. This
good news has been made possible by

result, with no fewer than 30 nations

operative action aimed at making
bright reality of President Eisenhower's
atoms-for- peace program.
This program was first proposed by
the President in his historic December,
1858, address to the United Nations. There
then followed the long and difficult
negotiations that finally led last year
to the agreement on the treaty. Yet,
although our country took the lead in
these negotiations as the author and
prime mover Of the IAEA idea, the Sem

for ratification. The reluctance has

Chairman Byrd of the Senate FL
nance Committee has predicted that the
inquiry which his group opens today
into the Nations financial condition, and
Government policies bearing upon it,
will be the most comprehensive study
of its kind in a half-century. There is
general agreement in many quarters
governmental and private, executive and
legislative, Republican and Democratic
that such an examination is due. In the
last Is years major depression, two
wars and a worldwide reconstruction
effort have borne heavily on our national
economy and have contributed to the
creation Of an increasingly complex
financial system designed to cope with
these and related problems 1t is largely
this very completely that has prompted
the National Bureau of Economic Re-
search to warn that important areas
of ignorance" exist about our financial
system and to add that there is great
need to explore them before they turn
into trouble spots"
In his State-of-the- Union message
last January, President Eisenhower rec
commended a broad national. inquiry"
by commission "of able and qualified
citizens" Congress has declined to act
directly on this recommendation as
standing committees of both House and
Senate have jockeyed over jurisdiction
and both Republicans and Democrats
have weighed the possible partisan ad-,
vantages. In effect, the Senate Finance
Committee outmaneuvered its rivals by
voting to undertake its inquiry without
asking additional fundS-thereby avoid
ing debate on the Senate floor about
jurisdiction or other limitations on the
scope of its study. Chairman Byrd has
said that his own purpose is to conduct
"nonpolitical and honest" investiga-
ton with first emphasis on the problem
OF the revived infiationary pressures Of
the past year and secondary attention
on the tight money" policies of the
Federal Government. He has acknowl-
edged, however, that there is no way
you can avoid those (political) issues"
Other members of the committee have
indicated greater partisanship in ad-
vance. Senator Gore, Tennessee Demo-
crat, has been outspokenly critical OF
administration fiscal policies and has
demanded that victims" of them be
called as witnesses. On the other side
of the party aisle, Republican Senator
Carlson Of Kansas has predicted great
statement" by Secretary of Treasury
Humphrey which will place the Demo-
Gratis ION the defensive"
Despite these cross-currents, the
committee has an opportunity for a
searching and constructive inquiry. There
is reason to believe that 1t will help
illuminate some of the "areas OF igno-
rance" and perhaps point the way to
maintaining sound Government fiscal
policies.

ALEXANDRIA. Va.

Dear Sir:
Let us know some time
whether squirrels and chip
hunks get along together. We
have an old dry wall, very
rural. and the chippies love it.
but the squirrels seem to be
trying to drive them away.
II have never heard of any
enmity between these two
families. but l have watched
them closely and there is no
doubt that the chipmunks are
on the defensive.
do you think there is any,
thing can do to end this
tension? / like both families,
and am willing to feed them
both.
THE chipmunks are delight
tul, with their bright eyes and
engaging manners, and color
full stripes, in fact, very pleas
ing in every way. so much so
l do not for the life Of me
see what there is in them to
irk the squirrels.
ION the other hand. I am
a professed admirer of the
latter, and hate to think of
them so mean that they are
not willing to share my largess
with others.
Can 1t be that the wild
creatures are no better, after
all. than human beings?
Sincerely yours. T. Med"
The apparent rivalry is pro-
baby over food.
Wildings suffer no less than
humans from thoughts Of food
deprivation.
Mankind, with the chance to
live in absolute and positive
plenty, is throwing away its
chances Tor "a mess Of wild
pottage. called armament.
The squirrels have their own
ways of being unhappy.
They cannot know. of course,
that the food put out by Mr..
Nc D. is apparently unlimited.
Squirrels live from hour to
hour. from minute to minute,
almost. and never know where
their next meal is coming
from, though it is impossible
for a watcher not to believe
that they may. at times, have
a pretty good idea.
How far the animal mind
goes is always a question.
Some years ago, across from
Templeton Jones home. there
were a pair Of handsome ban
tams. who evidently put two
and two together, when they
saw a vast concourse OF birds
In the Jones yard.
They soon walked across the

were so much at home there

In Defense of Murray

The NAACP pressure groups
request for the dismissal Of
Chief Murray is one Of the
most absurd things that they
have ever tried. We all know
the condition Of our local Po-
lice Department when Robert
Murray was asked to take
over. The District of Column
bia should be proud of the fine
job that Chief Murray has
done. In my opinion we have
not had finer man to head
our Police Department in
many years. I sincerely hope
our Commissioners will toss
aside this pressure groups ef-
forts. as there is no basis for
his dismissal.
I also hope that the citizens
of the District will write in
and show their appreciation
Of the job that Chief Murray
has done. Have they forgot
ten how rotten our Police De-
partment was few years ago?
Let's show this local pressure
group that this one time they
will not get away with some
thing.

Blame for InfIotion

David Lawrence begins his
article, The Growing In
flation Threat" by painting
a fearsome picture Of infla-
ton as the country's number
one evil. and ends it by placing
the blame on the doorstep of
organized labor.
He believes that II a con-
Stitutional amendment is
adopted to break up unionism
there would be a different
story to tell about the cost
of-living for the individual,
and for the Federal. State and
city governments in Ameria. y,
My only interest in his con-
clusion is academic, and it
seems to me he is covering
but one side of the street.
From an unbiased position.
let's suppose that the i'm
possible should happen and
that all labor would volun-
tarily take a $50 decrease in
salary tomorrow. Does Mr..
Lawrence really believe that
the cost-of-living would auto
matically drop $3.50?
for an example, let's look
at what happened to the
farmer. Since l947 he has
taken the equalivent of a 459o
saiary decrease, and the cost
OF food went up instead of
down. The evidence does not
bare out Mr.. Lawrence's con-
clusion that labor is the sole
culprit.
The only sure way to stop
imitation or deflation is to
have both business and labor
agree to permanent price fix:
ing by a strong non-partiSan
government agency acting as
referee. / am not advocating
such course. but simply
pointing out that such a course
is open.

Schools PHoht

We noted with regret the
Senate's denial of the full 1877
elementary teachers requested
in the 1858 District budget bill,
and the defeat of Senator
Clark's amendment which con-
cerned teachers to reduce
class size Immediately to an
overall 30. The argument
offered by Senator Pastore
for more gradual reduction. we
assume. is based solely on the
need for additional class
rooms. Senator Pastore was
unconvinced by the plea of
the school administration,
parents. and citizens groups. at
the recent budget hearings,
that smaller classes on a part
time basis are preferable for
first and second grades to full
time classes in schools where
overcrowding prevails. Space
for smaller classes, space for
special teachers, gymnasiums
and playground area for city
children. a new Hine Junior
High are Just some of the
programs long overdue or cur
tailed by the lack of funds
for clasSrooms and physical
facilities. However. we hope
that the urgency Of the pleas
made for these things at the
congressional hearings this
spring will at least help pre-
pare the way for an immedi-
ate and kinder reception to
borrowing legislation for Dis
trict public school construc-
ton in this session Of Con-
gress.
1t seems to us that we must
extricate ourselves from this
exhausting, vicious circle:
Pressing needs are unresolved
because Of budget cuts. the
Congress feels no obligation
to meet the Federal payment
because there is a surplus re-
sulting from such budget cuts.
and borrowing legislation for
such a thing as a school con-
struction crisis is viewed dubi-
ously because "the District is
a peculiar animal" Far from
being a peculiar animal" as
the retiring Treasury under
secretary says. the District too
has children. over 100000.
whose educational needs must
be resolved as in every other
responsible community in the
United States.

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEWELL

before dawn they came back
again.
Surely they must have
known. before they began the
daily trek, that food awaited
them there. how could they
be much different from the
kids who roll into the soda
fountains?
Mr.. and Mrs. H., as the BAN
tams were called, latter the
name of the owner) ate greed
lily, and then the old man
started to crow.
This morning Growing, high
and lovely to the properly at
tuned ear. struck sourly on the
pink ears of a nearby neigh
Dor.
There are always people who
don't like music!
Some do not care for SYM
phony. others resent hillbilly
music. and still others claim
the cry Of a crow in the morn
ing air an affront to public
decency.
They should know, these
sour ones, that the honest
crow. too. is a songbird.
Really! Scientists so class him,
along with his cousin. the
bluejay. If a listener sets his
mind and heart to music. he
will reward himself with a new
conception Of hearing. It's just
that easy.
Chipmunks and squirrels,
left to work 1t out. will come
to an amicable settlement at
last, simply because 1t is cas-
lest that way. 1t is only man.
who insists on making life
more difficult than it is.
Happily, chipmunks hide
their food, and our gray
squirrels do not. at least in
the same way. Gray squirrels,
unlike their red brothers.
merely dig a shallow hole and
hide a nut where they seldom
find it.
Chipmunks store food in
their dens, and can amass as
much as a bushel, it is said.
To this treasure trove. the
squirrels have no access. They
must prevent the little ones
carrying II away, but since
they have no foresight, in a
sense, they only seem to be
chasing the chippies for food.
Actually, what they are doing
is scampering. form of ami
NAL play known to most all
the species.
So If left to themselves. the
squirrels and chipmunks will
get along very nicely over the
years. 1t is only at mating
time that they may seem 10

other.
