Matter of Definition

George Beveridge's inter-
eSting article in The Sunday
Star on the redevelopment of
Paris contained a statement
open to question. Speaking Of
tax arrangements made with
the builders, he said: Public
building Zoomed and builders
were given subsidies in the
form of 20-year property ex-
emptions." A subsidy and a
tax exemption are two differ
ent things. Funk and Wag-
nails dictionary defines a
subsidy as: "Pecuniary aid
directly granted by govern
ment to an individual on
commercial enterprise deemed
productive of public benefit" :"
This is quite different from
the definition of exemption"
While governments may
feel they are doing builders
and contractors a favor by
eXempting construction from
taxation, builders can feel
the same way about erecting
buildings and improvements,
thereby increasing land val
ueS and making the COM
munity more livable. There
was no grant of money to
the Paris builders: they
merely took advantage of
favorable and natural con-
ditions for the utilization of
labor and capital unhampered
by bureaucratic restrictions.
To say that a government
grants a subsidy by exempt
ing building from taxation is
like saying (as some COM
mercial and industrial groups
sometimes state) that capital
and machines create jobs,
when in reality labor pre-
existed and created capital.
There can be no production
without labor, and all values
are created by labor with the
aid of capital. but labor must
be exerted first.
The City of New York. in
the early l920s. gave a
similar tax exemption to
builders in the Borough of
Queens. A phenomenal build
ing boom began which pro-
vided work for thousands of
construction people without
any government aid whatso-
ever, except of the tax ex-
emption. This might be the
right time for a tax exemp-
ton on construction in the
District of Columbia.

THE POLITICAL MILL
Fiqht-NotRun-IsNixo Position
BY GOULD LINCOLN

Vice President Richard M.
Nixon is not running away
from any battles-either in
California. his home State. or
in Washington. In the first
place 1t is not his nature to
run, and in the second it is
not good politics. Some Of his
friends have urged that he
step aside, or at least mini
mize his role in the coming
election of congressional and
State officers in California.
The argument advanced is
that by so doing his own
political fortunes land as
the expected nominee of the
Republican Party for Presi-
dent in 1860. they are con-
siderable) will suffer less.
This. however, will not be
the course followed by Mr..
Nixon. He will be in the
campaign come the fall,
fighting hard for the entire
Republican ticket, which in
cludes Senator Knowland. the
Republican nominee for Gov
ernor, and Gov. Knight, the
Republican C andidate for
Senator. AS well informed
and as shrewd a politician
as Mr.. Nixon is not blind to
the fact that the battle in
his home State this year is
a tough one. He knows that
the results of the June pri-
mary, in which Senator
Knowland was nominated to
run for Governor against
Democratic Attorney General
Pat Brown, and Governor
Knight was nominated to run
for Senator against Demo-
cratic Representative Clair
Engle, were not good from a
Republican point of view
indeed, quite diScouraging.
Mr.. Nixon, however, does not
belong to the scuttle-and-run
class of politicoS. Rather, he
believes that a battle is not
over until it is ended--in this
case, by an election.
Must Win Back Voters
A principal task for the
G. o. P. in California today is
to get the Republicans who
voted in considerable num-
berS for Pat Brown in the
primary, via the cross-tiling
and cross-party voting Svs-
tenn allowed under Califor-
MAS unique election laws,
back into the Republican
fold. ready to vote for Sen
ator Knowland in November.
And at the same time to
persuade many Democrats
and independents to support
the Senator, too. Also, the
G. o. P. faces the problem of
getting the many Republi-
cans who voted for Mayor
Christopher of San Francisco
in the senatorial primary to
forget their opposition to the
Governor and vote for him
in the general election. If the
party lines can be solidified,
Mr.. Nixon believes the G. DIP.
will have moved a long step
toward possible victory in
these elections. Mr.. Nixon,
again, is not blind to the up
hill battle which confrontS his,
party. But he is not backing
away from it.
The Republican situation
in California is complicated
in another respect-and the

Eating together often puts
cat and dog on the same
plane by making them firm
friends. No more quarreling
and pickering on the tradi-
tional level.
"Bast, my pedigreed Sia-
mese cat. was on the best
terms with Timmy, a pedi-
greed cocker, until his death, >
writes H. C. K. of Vacation
lane, Arlington. Zone of the
best street names.D
"Timmy'S successor, Jane,
made friends with Bast and
every one else on arrival. She
assisted Bast and her daugh-
ter, Nyx, in all their ac-
couchements, and actually
catnaped one litter, keeping
them until I explained to her
that she could not feed them.
I'VE now have only four
cats, Bast. Nyx, Eugene and
Erasmus. When Jane takes
me out on the leash, all four
cats insist on going with me.
When Jane gets out on
her own, occasionally, the
cats go out to bring her back.
Gene. James favorite god
son, and Jane, frequently
wash each others faces.
1T is true that Bast, an
ever jealous chaperone. in
sists on violently rebuffing
any canine that may try to
make James acquaintance,
but I feel that this is due,
not to racial antagonism, but
to a sense Of family re-
sponsibility.
Jane loves all living crea- =
lures; the cats love Jane. and,
to a certain extent, the other
members Of the family. I
do not think that they are in
any way unnatural"

with friends from other tribes
of the animal kingdom.
This animal happiness is
a special thing, just as it
is among humans.
Everyone has seen the fake
joy Of the glad handler. I"
This may be useful at times,
but does not compare with
the real inner happiness
found now and then, espe-
cially in Persian cats.
This note is one Of com
plete acceptance Of the world
as it is, and a total lack Of
fear from others, even Of
different species.
Fluffy. sometimes called
Happy. is an instance Of this.
He is a handsome white
Persian, with a magnificent
tail, hence his name, and a
wonderful disposition, hence
his second name.

standing have more than one
name.

solution seems even more
dificult. Senator Knowland
has espoused the cause Of
voluntary unionism." as op-
posed TO compulsory unions
ISM" In this stand. he has
run head-on into the leaders
of organized labor who de-
mand a continuance Of the
union shop-which compels
a worker to become a member
OF the union some 80 days
after he takes a job. whether
he wishes to join the union
or not. Senator Knowland'S
position favors the so-called
right-to-work laws, adopted
by a number Of States-as per-
mitted under the Taft Hart
ley Act. His Democratic OPP
ponent, Pat Brown, follows
the union leaders on this
issue, and so does Governor
Knight. It's difficult TO have
a Republican ticket half pro-
voluntary unionism. and half
pro-compulsory unionism.
This, too, is a situation which
Mr.. Nixon must ride out when
he campaigns for the COP
ticket.
High Regard for Senator
1t is no secret that the Vice
President has a high person.
al regard for Senator Know
land and that he feels the
Senator's forthrightness,
honesty, and character will
have favorable influence on
the voters Of California. once
he is able to get back to the
State to campaign hard, as
he will after Congress closes.
So Mr.. Nixon will fight for
Senator Knowland's election,
Notwithstanding the fact that
the Senator's political ambi-
tions may clash with his own
two years hence. And while
in the past he and Gov.
Knight have been at SWORDS
points, Mr.. Nixon is prepared
to support him vigorously
next fall.
In Washington, Vice-Presi-
dent Nixon is not backing
away, either, from the So
called Adams issue, which
'has divided the Republicans.
Instead Of declining to COM
ment on the Adams Goldfine
incident when questioned by.
reporters, as he might have
done, Mr.. Nixon defended ,
the right of members of Con-
gresS and of the White House
to obtain information for
citizens seeking it from Gov
ernment agencies, and to
see the citizens get a fair
deal in their relations with
the agencies. NotwithStand-
ing the fac THAT a number OF
important Republicans have
urged that Sherman Adams
be compelled to resign as AS
Sistant to the President, and
that Mr.. Adams and he have
never been close and someA
times have failed to see e~
to eye, Mr. Nixon is stand
ing squarely with President
Eisenhower, whose decision
in the Adams matter in the
end must be the last word.
Mr.. Nixon, in his press inter- ,
view, also took the position
that the So-called Adams iS-
issue. raised by the Demo-
Gratis in the coming cam :
paign may be found to have
little effect.

Result Of FIexibiIity

The Congress will keep. in

greater flexibility in defense
spending will result In greater
efficiency. more responsiveness
to changing military require
ments. and more economical
