Willis is certainly a bard losei. President Roosevelt contends that unless Congress appropriates One hundred and fifty million dollar* that five million WPA worker* will be thrown out ot work by July 1. Congress ha* twice turned -down the president’s request tor additional work-relief funds | and if the legislative again says I "no." the country may see a breakdown ot the entire WPA system. We hope congress finds away of merging the five federal taxes Into one. The plan, as announced by President Roosevelt is to Include the social security tax with four other corporation taxes. The --plan sounds feasible and practical There are too many taxes and reports now-a-day* By <<>mbiniiiK the taxes one report would answer the purpose and that would "be a relief.

MORE NAZI RUTHLESSNESS The dismemberment o( t'anebo ; Slovakia Is a logical outcome of the Munich compact. When Hit- | ler was permitted to absorb the Sudeten ares of the little republic j ' a death blow wa* given to one of I 1 the moat prosperous and prvgres- 1 . slve of the war-born uatioua. The t Munich agreement took so much of the industrial and other re-, , source* aud ao many of the popu-' t lation that t'lec ti<> Slovakia . eased i to figure prominently as a governmental entity. It became plainly i th. pawn of the totalitarian states with no chance of defending ttself , against further aggression and no hope of aid from abroad. The division ot the little coun-1 try Into three parts Is an inter- [ 1 national tragedy. The easternmost 1 tip or Ruthenia will eventually < tall into the hands of Hungary I either by actual absorption or over-' i lordship Slovakia is set up as a > separate republic with the aid ot German troop*.
