-i'H Never Commute Aaainl"

Is there a man from Madison Avenue to
Market Street who has never wanted to give
up the commuters time-consuming hustle and
hustle and to exchange the free-way for some
free time with his family? We doubt il. But
how many of us ever do anything about il?
Mr.. Carr did, and this month describes his
experience-its rewards and drawbacks, and
tells why he'll never commute again.

Marriage In The Suburbs

It's about Lois and Don, who will soon be
married. By converting sociologists' statistics
and university studies into prophecy we'd like
to take you through the next thirty years or SO
and picture what lies ahead for them and thou
sands of other young Americans like them who
are about to be Just married, the homes
they'll live in, the children they'll have. and
what they have to look forward to after their
silver anniversary.

Here are thirty-fve guests and members OF
the wedding, handsomely and sharply por-
uayed by our witty, talented, and most wei
come cover artist. The father of the bride sends
regrets. however. He retired from the scene
moment or so ago-he just had to loosen his
collar, put his feet up, light that cigar, and
privately review the events of this day and
those wonderful years that came before it,

ual be allowed deduction for trans

he also should be permitted other de-
ductions customarily allowed by COM
panies to employees on business trips,
such as lunch, parking fees, gratuities,
and the like. Also. anyone who takes
work home should be allowed to de-
duct for the use of his den or library,

More power to Coneresswoman
Dryers campaign!
g. Harris Danzberger
bingham, Massachusetts,
As daily commuter find the views
of the New Jersey Congresswoman de-
lightful, but unrealistic and ill-advised.
If committing costs, as she contends,
are money you spend to hold your
job" why does she stop there?
Just as necessary for the holding of
my job are my clothes, food, shelter,
entertainment, and = my eyeglasses.
Also how long would any man hold
his job without razor and shaving
cream?
We commuters have chosen our way
of life, reaping the benefits, and know
ing the costs. The preservation of free
dom is q costly thing. Let's stop
thinking we can have our cake and eat
il too and piece left over for tomor-
row. Our taxes are our safeguards for
tomorrow's continuity. They are our
privilege and our responsibility-even
If we commute.
Aileen S. Miles
MiddIeburg, Virginia
My solution to the dilemma is as
follows: | do not believe that deduc-
tons from the income tax for pressure
groups, favored groups, or any other
minority groups are the answer. feel
that reduction in the cost of govern
ment should be made. thus leading to
the possibility of reduction in income
taxes for all. The income tax in itself is
unfair, is sitting to initiative, and is
not in the best interests of democratic
form of government. By substantially
lowering the total amount of income
tax that individuals are required 10 pay,
the committing expenses of everyone
would be much easier to meet.
Mary White

Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1959-06-04

How refreshing to discover that we
are not just a column of dieits repre-
senting so many electoral votes, but
real people with tangible problems
such as taxes.
People these days who do not have
to commute are in the minority, and
the problem is indeed a sore spot
with most of us. l am of the sincere
opinion that Congresswoman Dryer
has a complete and thorough under
standing Of the situation. l can only
add-more power to her. and at least
one commuters vote of confidence and
gratitude.
Alta Mae Dicks
Tulsa, Oklahoma
II is apparent that Congresswoman
Dwyer has not fully analysed the sit
uation. Everyone 'commutes" to his
job. Allowing everyone in the present
working force of $1,000, 900 an aver
age deduction of $4,000 would leave
Uncle Sam short 100000, 900 tax
able dollars. This is lot of money. 1t
must be made up for in other taxes.
The inevitable result: increased Federal
spending Through the expensive proc
ess of collecting additional taxes), de-
creasing value of the purchasing dollar,
and initiation. Every taxpayer should
speak out, as Congresswoman Dryer
suggests. but they should speak out
against the passage of such an iniia-
tionary measure as the one she has
proposed.
Ted L. Merhoff
Louisville, Kentucky
have often felt the way Congress-
woman Dwyer does. However, let's not
be stampeded into thinking we're get
ting something for nothing. Who is a
commuter? Is il just the person who
travels from suburbia TO the big city7
Or is il anyone who must travel to
work? l feel the chap who goes across
Big Town is as much entitled to relief
as the suburban "commuter."
The commuter has made his choice.
see no reason why the Joe who lives
in hot apartment on a busy street
should pay extra to defray the COM
muting cost of his luckier compatriot.

Business-managementw will get
deeper than ever into politics.
and take a firmer, and more
positive approach toward legis-
lative matters contributing to
the general economy.
Recognized corporate execu-
tives will openly have their say
in national politics from here
out. into the 1860 presidential
elections and through the con-
gressional Legislative sessions Of
1861 and 1862.
Expect increased political
action by the United States
Chamber Of Commerce and all
its cooperative units. There
will be marked activity on the
part Of almost all national trade
associations. too. The need Of
business unity. in politics, is
now fully realized.
The effort Of the pull
together on the part Of business
management is to survive the
battle that labor leaders started
years ago and who have since
been cracking the whip over
Congress.
There is no scarcity Of pro-
duction ability in the United
States. That's confirmed in the
steel situation. The strike shows
the industry can produce in
nine months the Nations full
steel needs for IL months. The
same can be accomplished in
any industry.
Some securities statistical
services keep saying: We don't
expect a reduction in the de-
Tense budget. That's a half
truth, and they know it. The

HIGHLY ESTEEMED NEGRO
PASTOR IN TYRRELL DIES

COLUMBIA.-One of Columbia's
venerable Negroes, the Reverend
Wade Hampton Owens, II, was
buried Sunday afternoon.
Owens, under the Grandfather
Clause" had been voter in Tyr
rell County since he became of
age, and for many years was the
only Negro who voted. He voted
without any ostentatious display
but with humble attitude of thank
fulness that his forebears had
proven their citizenship, and had
given their loyalty to the "South's
Cause" in reconstruction days,
making them and their posterity
eligible for voice in the affairs
of government.
He was a good business man;
was owner and operator of a gro
Gerry store, and initiated the dry
cleaning business in Columbia. He
had been a minister for the past
80 years, and had served Salem
Missionary Baptist Church here as
its pastor.

said to be in his funeral cortege.

IRISH POTATO CROP IN
TYRRELL 5o1o SHORT

COLUMBIA.-The Irish potato
season which Tyrrell farmers get
set for each year in June, prom
ises to be about 500 short this
season, informs B. Frank Alexan-
der, a longtime produce dealer
here.
Alexander states that by June
10, the digging will be under way,
and that so far prices were hold
ing up well. "Due to the unusual
ly dry weather they will be about
$3.50 short in yield, and the cur
failed planting acreage will ac-
count for the difference" be says.
Due to the unstable markets,
and DOSAGE over a period of years,
spuds which have been considered
the main money crop in this coun-
ty, have given away some to other
more secure paintings, he adds.
