Gilbert!, coauthor of Indiana’s 1932 gross (income tax law, called it “unfair” and said he was “opposed without reservation” to it. The measure would authorize a tax up Lo bne percent on individual grqss income and corporation net profits provided voters approved in a referendum. 1 “Wage earners pay the. full one Percent and other people more capable of paying get off for less than .me percent,” said Gilbert. He classed it as the “same thing that’s vrong with the present gross income tax law.” Sens. Edwaid W. Beaman, R., ,Princeton, and Manford J.

To Begin With— ATOM-SPLITTING IS JUST ANOTHER, ■£”*! WAY OF CAUSING AN EXPLOSION -X-X ’ TO BEGIN WITH, you must realise that at»m-Sp!lttlng is mst.'another way of causing an explcsion, While an atoth bomb holds more death and destruction than man hag ever before in a single package, its total power is definitely limited- .even hydrogen ' bombs could blow the earth apart or kill by mysterious radiation. .* I i ■ ? | / . • YOUR CHANCES OF SURVIVING AN ATOMIC ATTACK ARC BETTER THAN YOU MAY HAVE THOUGHT! * Because ths power, of all bombs is limited. ywr chances of living through an atomic attack are mtjich better imn you x may have thought. In the city of Hiroshima, gllghtly over half the people who -were a mile from the atomic exploalon are stHI illlve. At Nagasaki, almost 70 per cent of the people a hdle from the bomb lived th tell, their cxpe rlencea. Today thousands of survivors, iff these two atomic attacks live in new houses built right where their old ones once stood. The war miy have changed their way of life, but they arc not riddled with cancer. Their children are normal/ Those who were temporarily unable to have children because of the radiation now are having children again. : , ' L What Are Your Chances?. jUAMjayl CLOSE TO THE EXPLOSION, HmTmi J YOUR CHANCES ARE ONLY * ONE OUT OF TEN If a modern A-bomb exploded without warning in the air Over your home town tonight, your calculated of living through the raid would run something like this: > j Should you happen to be one of the unlucky people right under the , bomb, there is practically no hope of living 1 through jt. In fact, anywhere within one-half mile of the center of explosion, your chances of yscaping are about 1 out of 10.

In the same way, if there were a bomb 100. times as powerful.' it would reach out only a little more than 4’4. not 100 times as far.
