B-CC Principal Says Push for Donations
For Stadium Fund Drive News to Me-

Published reports that stur

High School are being pres
sured" for donations of S. and
more in the current stadium
fund drive were vigorously
denied this week by the schools
principal, Joseph ]. Tarallo.
IF there's any pressure of
this kind being put on our stu.
dents, it's news to me-" he said.
Tarallo said he has had no
report of such pressure from
either homeroom teachers or
faculty advisors working with
the Student Government Asso-
citation and its stadium COM
mittee - or from parents of
students.
IF there is any pressure at
ALL" he said, lit could only be
from one or two over-Zealous
homeroom representatives of
the SGA, which is putting on
the drive and if this is the
case, I'll certainly track it down
and put an administrative stop
to it."
He especially questioned the
report that Individual students
are being "dunned" for as much
as SIS each toward adding new
seats to the schools stadium.
A drive to raise 500 from
each of the schools 81 home
room groups was undertaken
voluntarily by the students in
September, he said. Each home
room has at least 30 students,
he added, which would limit the
pro-rata contribution to just
under $3.50.
He said, however, that the
fund drive was not set up on
an individual basis, but that stu
dents have special group fund

sales, point-spread contests dur

and 8 per cent If the aminis-
tration's proposal finally wins.
This move would save business
men another 81 billion or more
in taxes each year.
It can be spurred by o
thorough reform Of our tax
laws and regulations governing
depreciation Of equipment bust
nessmen buy to modernize their
plants. The one bright aspect
Of steel's unsuccessful attempt
to raise prices Is that 1t has
riveted attention on the problem
businessmen face today as they
seek to finance modernization
and expansion Of their factor
les.
While the latest McGraw-Hill
estimate Of what businessmen
viii spend this year raises the
total to an all-time peak Of
$3S billion, II per cent over
l961's total, this is still not
good enough. Many companies
are, as they claim, in q profit
squeeze and they must have re-
lief If they are to spend what
they should spend. Many cor
porations are holding back on
investments which are impera-
tive If their plants are to be and
stay competitive. Hiking prices
isn't the solution to this crucial
money problem Of United States
business today. Tax relief Is.
This is plain talk, factual
and unbiased. The McGraw-
Hill forecast of an IL per cent
increase in business spending
over 1861 is impressively high
er than an earlier Government
prediction Of an 8 per cent rise
but the $38 billion tops the 1857
record by only q slim margin.
II the figures are adjusted for
the price rises Of the past five
years, real" business spending
this year actually win be 5 per
cent below what it was q half
decade ago, when we were q
much smaller Nation. The rate
at which we're undermining our
plants is equivalent to a creep
when it should be a gallop. =
Acceleration of this spending
via basic incentives is not only
a key to our competing abroad,
raising our exports, creating
new Jobs, paychecks, profits, 1t
also is a way we can postpone
another recession. It is on the
area Of speeding up business
spending that we should be con.
centrating NOW while we still
have time to prevent the fourth
upturn Of post-World War II
from burning into the fifth
downturn in 1868.
