Lack of Appreciation of Notion Found
In U. S. Pupils Essay Contest in Italy

One youngster wrote that the
South had "aSsasSinated Lin
coin"
But these enthusiastic teen
ayers, anxious to learn and to
understand the challenges
America is facing today and
to research their beginnings,
are lucky in that they, by liv-
ing among foreigners. don't
take the privilege of being an

quently told that love Of
country is a thing Of the
past. A young lady, II years
old. who is the editor of a
high school paper in Redding,
Conn, wrote an editorial
which Is so shocking that
1t would not be believed with
out proof. She wrote that
patriotism has outlived its
usefulness and needs to be
replaced by a LOYALTY to the
world" The editorial, en-
titled "A High Loyalty" de-
clared that to be a patriotic
American 'is to be a blindly
stupid individual"
But the reaction of the
school superintendent to q
sharp protest by the Charles
L. Ruman Post of the Amer
lean Legion in Easton, Conn,
was even more shocking. He
is quoted as having said that
he and the faculty believed
that the paper and students
"have a right to say what

This girl went to school

UnIowfuI Seizure of Citizens Money
Seen in New Income Tox Proposal

for participation in such q
wrongful act.
It has been contended that
all these problems will be
taken care Of by the device
of exemption certificates
which the citizen who owes
no tax win file in advance
with his bank or savings in
stitution. But this is not all
Of the problem. 1t doesn't
cover the case Of the citizen
who must pay a small tax
and who finds a larger per-
centage of dividend or inter-
est income has been auto
matically withheld than he
really owed.
Does a refund" therefore,
completely meet the question
Of morality when the citizen
doesn't owe all Of the tax
that is to be imposed on him7
Is 1t right for the Govern
ment to collect a single dollar
in taxes that doesn't belong
to it and which the citizen
has not had an opportunity
to receive or calculate in his
regular income tax return?
Mortimer Caplin, commits
sioner Of the Internal Reve-
nue. Service, who Is a very
able man with long expert
ence in the field of tax law,
has just made a speech in
which he estimates that
nearly seven per cent Of the
total collected by the with
holding" plan on dividends
and interest will have to be
refunded by the Government.
He says that maybe as many
as 2 million taxpayers have
various deductions for medi-
cal expenses and old-age
allowances which might bring
their tax obligation below
the amounts withheld by the
Government. He says:
For taxable individuals in
the lower-income brackets
there may be some over
withholding, perhaps 5000
million Of over-withholding
out Of an estimated So billion
Of total Withholding"
The commissioner sug-
gested that these taxpayers
could get this money back

Lord AItrinchom's View Is Expected

the Old Guard Republicans
Of the Birch Society chapter,

As they have fingered their

Of merit, they have been
known to mutter darkly that
this fellow Nixon Is too liberal,
that he is more q New Deal
Democrat, Q lackey for creep
ing socialism, q do-gooder and
maybe q bit pink. These Re-
publicans, who seem to have
increasing influence in the

to give Altrincham the Dis

ROME.-That the future
Of America lies in its youth
was never brought home more
forcefully to this reporter
than recently when he was
invited by the American
Legion post in Rome to be a
judge Of a Legion-sponsored
essay contest for American
high school students in Italy.
The subject was The De-
velopment Of Civil Rights in
the United States" Out of
six contestants, each the win
ner Of first place In the con-
test in his school. only one
showed an appreciation Of our
great history and an inspired,
fervent love of our Nation.
All that q youngster feels
and all that he knows comes
from home atmosphere and
from his schooling. His at
titudes are a reflection from
his parents and teachers.
It seems to me that we can
find the beginnings and
source Of our present day
wavering leadership, befud-
died ideologies and lack of
morals in the Roaring
TwentieS." Somehow World
War I shattered our entire
traditional code of living
more than it did in Europe.
The six essays of the civil
rights contest each reflected
a great deal Of work by the
youngsters and an eager de-
sire not only to know and
learn. but a desire to win.
But none Of them were in
spired to challenge their
source material. With the
exception of one. there was
no indication that the essay
ist had spent much time CIV
ing thought to his work. Nor
was there indicated a curl
oSity to see If what they
were reading was correct.

DAVID LAWRENCE

II there's one issue the
American people can under
stand, it is that nobody
not even the Goyernrnent-is
entitled to take away from
the citizen money that be-
longs to him alone and is not
due for taxes.
1t now Is estimated BY the
Internal Revenue Service
That approximately 5000 mil
hon win be taken from the
citizens for different periods
Of time each year and then
returned later to the lawful
owners. Many people In re-
tirement will be affected by
the proposed law that would
require corporations, banks
and other institutions to
withhold q certain propor-
ton Of dividends and inter-
est and pay it directly to the
Government every month or
every three months.
WIN the citizen get any
interest for the time his
money is in.the Governments
hands? Nobody has come for
ward yet with a practical
plan even to compute such
interest. This "over-with-
held" money certainly win
not be earning compound in
terest for the citizen at the
Dank during the period he
has been deprived of it.
The administrations argu-
rr1ent is that too much diyi-
dend and interest money is
escaping taxation altogether
and, in effect, that "the end
Justifies the means" This
may make things easier for
the tax collector, but can it
make things easier for the
qpnsciences of members of
Congress who know they will
be authorizing a confiscation
Of private propertyP The fact
that this confiScation is for
short intervals each year
doesn't lessen its injustice.
One Of the Ten Command
ments says something to this
effect: Thou shalt not take
what doesn't belong to you"
There has never been any
amendment to this which
exonerates the Government
itself, including the Congress,

RALPH McGHL

Lord Altrincham, who writes
q column for the Manchester.
(England) Guardian Weekly,
has done one following a visit
with Richard Nixon, and it
may be the learned gentleman
sensationally has solved the
mystery of the. former Vice
Presidents legendary dissat-
isfacton with things as they
are.
Mr.. Nixon has not been any
part Of a sphinx. He talks
well and, to the delight OF
his opposition has written a
best-seIling book. Life Mag
azine paid him more for the
serial rights to 1t than he
received In four years as Vice
President) But Mr.. Nixon re-
mains something Of a mys-
terry, even to his friends. Lord
Aitrincham, after sharing
with Mr.. Nixon a bourbon on
the rocks "a Tennessee bour-
bon, the columnist noted,
had a satisfactory CONVERSE
tion. It did not, however, ex-
plain all he wanted to know
about his host. He, too, came
away asking himself certain
questions about the hidden
Nixon, and reaching conclu-
Sions.
The answer, Lord Affirm
cham thinks, may lie in the
fact that Mr.. Nixon is in the
wrong party. He should have
been q Democrat. The British
columnist reasons thusly:
"Mr. Nixon has charm
but charm is not his most
endearing quality. He started
more or less from scratch
and had to struggle to create
the Nixon "image" which
helped him to emerge from
ohscurity. But the image is
not the whole man. He is
intelligent, progressive and
realistic. His affections are
simple and genuine. Behind

Funds to carry out the market

Each professor would pay up to
20 cents per hundred pounds of
turkey moving through his plant
These funds could also be used for
research and product development

probably go up. Some increase in
retail prices would also take place.
But consumer prices would proba-
bly, go up. Some increase in retail
prices would also take place. But
consumer prices would probably
not go up very much since home
makers could shift their buying to
other meats. So the income to pro-
ducers could not be raised very
much
The turkey industry produced
107 million turkeys in 1861, 26@o
over 1860. This expansion resulted
in supplies exceeding demand that
would provide a normal profit to
the industry. The 1861 overproduc-
tion caused industry leaders to
consider the marketing order ap-
proach. But whether most growers
will accept orders remains to be
seen.
