On RIGHT to News

HARTFORD. Conn. Dec. 6
(R.-One OF the vital rights
of the American people-the
right to know what is going on
in their Government through
newspaper reporting - already
may have been lost through

land editors were told today.
Carl E. Lindstrom. executive
editor Of the Hartford Times.
addressing q two-day session
Of the New England Society OF
Newspaper Editors, said that a
constant fight by newspapers
in the public's behalf win be
lost unless the public becomes
aware of what is at stake.
The general public seems to
feel that Government has
a right to a certain amount
quite a large amount-of pri-
vate life" Mr.. Lindstrom said
This. OF course. is completely
contrary TO the democratic
process under which We have
been living.

What has happened? Last year the per-

According to Treasury report, those earn
ings from 81 200 to $4,000 paid so percent

An HCH dry-ny line of the mod
ern, light, long-noating type is the
best to use on fly tackle. for either
cry or wet flies. but not for bass
bugs A C-level line. inexpensive of
the same long floating type, will do
for wet flies and bugs.
With casting tackle, you don t
need the careful coaching that you
do with fly tackle, although it does
cali for more practice than spinning
tackle
A light casting rod Of six feet or
even slightly longer is best for the
beginner. A. rod of split bamboo or
hollow glass has the incest feel and
action but one of solid glass GER
tainly casts well enough for practi-
cal purposes and is less likely to be
broken by the inexperienced angler.

Close Tax Loophole

government is hidden cost for which no
appropriation is required by Congress, and
its effect makes more difficult the balance
of the Federal budget, or reduce the Fed

the benefits Of the provision
The Virginia Senator also voiced some
concern over the danger created by this
emergency provision to small businesses.
Since 1858, when Korean hostilities ended,
more than 5000 certificates for defense tax
benefits have been granted, according to
Senator Byrd, and these certificates COW
cred investments of billions of dollars,
which represented tax write-offs Of seven
billion dollars. Byrd says these figures
greatly exceed the amounts during the
World War Il period.
Once again, the Virginia Senator has
come up with good economic advice and
sense, and we hope Congress follows his
recommendation ID the first session of the
Eighty-Fifth Congress.

CENATOR Harry F. Byrd, Virginia Dem
y ocrat, has called for outright repeal of
a section of the Internal Revenue Law
which allows business to charge off against
taxable income over five years large part
of the cost of certain investments which are
"allegedly essential to national defense.
This section of the Internal Revenue law
was first used during the World War II,
continued during the Korean War and then
extended in 1854 for the cold war mobiliza-
ton. 1t allows certain firms approved
by the Office of Defense Mobilization - to
utilize emergency tax provisions for fast
amortization. Byrd charges that this has
created temporary loss in revenue of APP
proximately five billion dollars
Whereas businesses have normally de-
preciated their facilities in period of
from twenty to twenty-five years, when
they are allowed to depfeciate them in
shorter period, the effect is to reduce their
taxes. Byrd says this loss of revenue to the

Curb parking would solve the width pro-
blems, but nine cars now require the same

the family car for bicycle, but it would
require a complete change in advertising:
