the facility. CD 1t needs to know
the cost of such money fhe
amount and rate of interest to be
paid on the loan, and CD Where
the money is to come from. Gen
orally, aat this stage the treasurer
of a state or local municipality
will seek the assistance of a fl
nancial advisor and a recognized
firm of municipal bond attorneys
to assist in the planning of a mu-
nicipal bond issue.
After putting the recommended
tons of these expert advisors into
effect, the commercial banks and
investment bankers perform their
important role in bringing about
the successful financing of NUM-
cipal projects. The investment
banker, commercial bank bond de-
partment, as the case may be,
upon invitation of the issuing
community, bid for the bond issue
and usually the one offering the
community the lowest cost of
money is awarded the bond issue.
The underwriters. as they
are called. in turn plan 10
resell the bonds to the public
with the hope of making a
profit. The purchase of the
bond issue by an underwriting
group provides the community
with the lump sum necessary
for actual construction of the
facility.
If the community had tried tc
sell the bonds by itself, such &
lump sum might not have beer
available for some unknown time
possibly delaying the construction
of the proposed facility for many
months.
Now you may ask, "What is {
municipal bond?" A municipal
bond in the simplest of terms i:
an lou. 1t is the state, city, town
or school districts promise to re-
pay a set amount of money at
fixed rate of interest for the use
of the money for a specified per
iod of years. Municipal bonds
could in some ways be compared
with a mortgage. 1t is similar tt
the debt that an individual ere
ates when purchasing a home
through such a loan.
You may ask, "Why municipal
bonds?" Financing through NUM-
cipal bonds is necessary simply
becasse to try to repay the cos
of such facilities would be toe
burdensome, if not impossible IL
most cases, for a community t
bear through taxation in any one
year. Bonds for a particular faci
lily which mature at differen
times in the future provide thu
issuing ausnority-city, town
school district, etc.-a chance t.
stagger its payments by spread
ing them well into the future.
Not only does such an ar
rangement prove itself finan-
cially feasible, it also lifts an
undue load from the current
group of ~taxpaying citizens
and distributes it, in effect,
to the community's future tax
payers-their children and
their children'S children, who
will be the users of the new
facility. This is as it should
be, for most of the facilities
provided through municipal
financing will be in use for
several generations.
Not to be overlooked is the fat
that the interest earned on mum
cipal bonds is exempt from a

cases from taxes of the issuing
state. This is important to you,
the taxpayer, for this tax-exemp-
ton feature generally makes it
possible for a community to OBJ
tain a lower rate of interest on
its, bond; lower than otherwise
would be available if it were to
seek other types of financing And,
of course, the ultimate investor
who owns these tax exempt bonds
is likewise benefited.

of your farm and saves you many hours of labor. On many farms there is
the problem of improper housing or the need for housing livestock, feed
and equipment. Plan now for better farming in 1868 and let us help you

or circulated around that we
were not to bring any pres
entS.
The reason was, he explained
at the meeting, that instead of
the usual practice of eXchang
ing gifts, those present would
be asked to donate the dollar
for this purpose to the Scholar
ship Fund, which is a good
cause.
Let me give a little back
ground of this so-called Schol-
arship Fund. 1t is a noble gest-
ure embarked upon by this As
ISOLATION in line with its aims
to encourage not only attend
ance at the University but also
the attainment of superior
grades. Under this plan an
award is to be given to quail
fled candidates of Filipino ex-
traction, first, and to other stu
dents in general.
1t first came into being four
years ago during the first term
of the past administration. A
goal of $4,000 was set. And
right away, the president went
to the University without auth
orization from the membership
and made pledge. Thus, it be-
came a debt. Four years after,
not a dollar has been RENTED
to the University of Washing
ton to redeem the obligation.
To go back to the meeting.
The second on the agenda was
about a concert. He, the Presi-
dent, went on to say that he
knew of certain opera singer
way down East who was willing
to make an appearance on the
Campus if some group would
sponsor her. So, he took it into
his hands: negotiated for a 1871
share of the proceeds, set a
fixed date, arranged for the
printing and prices of the tick
cts. At the meeting he had the
tickets with him and distribut-
ed them then and there to
everybody to sell.
That floored me - having
everything ready the first day
it was proposed, moved, second
ed, carried and acted upon by
one man. One cannot blame any
body for even disowning the
Alumni Association for actions
like that.
In the discussion that follow
ed, however, this point was
overlooked and sidestepped; the
1870 cut took the limelight =
opposition arose from every
corner of the room. Some con-
tended that $3.50 share would

60-40 as the usual percentage

when the artist is not known.
The turbulent discussion sub
sided when Consul Ramos, one
of those present, suggested
that 25q6 would be fair enough
if it was agreeable to the sing
er. 1t was then agreed that the
president take it up with the
artist, Miss Corbelita Astra-
quillo, and report back what
ever condition was agreed upon.

reply to one such issue.
During the inaugural program
of the University of Washing
ton Filipino Alumni Association,
the outgoing president, MIR.
Prudencio P. Mori, made a gen
eral and sweeping accusation
against the other officers of his
administration as being neglect
full of their duties. Not mention
ing any names naturally made
each of the other officers a
possible target of the accusa-
ton.
Speaking for myself, I am
sure that Mr.. Mort had in mind
my refusal, as treasurer of the
Association, to yield to his order
in the disbursement of the AS
sociation's funds toward an I'M
authorized Christmas party and
incidental expenditures. I am
referring to the last Christmas
party held at the home of Mr..
and Mrs. Julius B. Ruiz, sup
posedly put on by the u. w.
Filipino Alumni Association.
This is what happened:
Two weeks before the afore-
mentioned party, Mr.. Mort &C
costed me and asked me to
make financial arrangements
with Mrs. Ruiz in regards to a
forthcoming Alumni Christmas
party. l asked myself, what
Christmas party?", for l knew
of no such party having been
proposed or approved. AS a mat
ter of fact, there was not even
a meeting, nor call for one,
for that purpose.
| told him that l was only
a custodian of the money of the
association and could not touch
it without due authorization. |
suggested that he call meeting
the following weekend at Mr..
Ferrera'S office. He did not ans
wer and no such meeting was
announced. Instead, he went
ahead with his plans, furnish
ing the money himself and call
ed it U. of w. Filipino Alumni
Association Christmas Party.
Contrary to practice and tradi-
ton, no financial report was
ever submitted to the Associa-
ton. If there was any money
made, it was personal gain in
the name of the Association;
and that was a fraud.
Don't get me wrong. l like
Christmas parties; and so do

never missed one until last time.
| imagine Mr.. Mort was
afraid to call a meeting lest
nobody would show up; and
that would not be the first time.
If nobody shows up when a
president calls a meeting, there
is something innately wrong.
But, he went ahead; that made
it true to form - a one-man
show. 1t has been a one-man
show ali along. Let us take the
concert for one more example.
1t started on the 18th of Dec
ember, 1861, when the U. w.
Filipino Alumni Association had
the Christmas Party for the
year. Guests were invited and
among them were the personnel
of the Philippine Consulate
General. Of course, l did not
know what was to transpire at
the party, for nothing was said

thus earned than those imposed by the
regular escalating tax rates.
But that does not make it loophole
iii any sense. For one thing, the money
used to buy the property in question
was that which was left after taxes had
been paid. Thus, any capital gains tax
is form Of double taxation.
More important, this frees funds for
investment which would not otherwise
be available. And investment - more
and more Investments what, in the
view Of practically everyone, the coun-
try needs. 1t is worth noting, also, that
we are the only major industrial nation
which taxes capital gains.
The moral is simple: In considering
tax reform, let's be very sure we un-
derstand what are tax loopholes and
what aren't-lest great and lasting
damage be done to the national econ
omy.

One Of this years prolonged debates,
within and without Congress, will con-
cern tax revision and tax reform-as
against tax reduction. And one Of the
highlights Of that debate will deal with
what are called, often loosely, "tax loop
holes"
The problem here is one Of definition.
What is a real loophole that needs plug
ging-and what is tax provision that
is essential to the investment that
makes possible economic development,
and the creation Of new enterprises,
new products, more employment?
AS an example, there is talk about
doing away, or materially changing,
the capital gains provision of the in
come tax system. This provision ap-
plies to the sale Of certain kinds of
property, primarily stocks. In many in
stances, if allows a lesser tax on profits

The Fact Of Change

Court, have held that the railroads
have the legal right to make adjust
ments.
But human values have not been
abandoned. The Commission also rec
commended protective provisions fol-
workers which have been termed un-
precedented in cost and magnitude
and which the railroads accepted. No
displaced worker would be summarily
dismissed. To provide one illustration,
the Commission agreed that 27,000 fire
men now in road freight OF yard serv-
ice with 10 or more years seniority
should be kept on with full job rights
until retirement, death or other attri-
tion ends their jobs. Those with lesser
seniority will also get substantial bene-
fits, retraining for other work among
them.
The clock ticks Oh, and 10 one can
stop it. In railroading, one hour must
follow the next-the happy part is that
the human element has been considered
as seriously as the economic element.

No one, needless to say, likes to see
his job disappear. And society at large
feels a wrench when progress makes
certain jobs obsolete. Secretary Of La
Dor Wirtz recognized this situation
when he said: "The presiding fact in
our time is the fact of change. A
job used to be something that man ex-
pected to have all his life, and our trou-
bic today is that is what he still ex-
poets ". (yet) job is no longer some
thing which most people can reasonab-
" expect to have or to perform the rest
of their lives. There is going to be a
change"
The change lies in chronological ad-
Vances, and in the forces of competi-
ton. A primary current example lies
in the obsolete railroad work rules
the source of "featherbedding" which
costs this hard-pressed industry some
thing like $500 million year. "A dis
tinguished Presidential Commission
recommended sweeping changes. The
