Victory for Good Government WO weeks ago, when it. appeared that the General Assembly had scuttled the hope that Marion County's Julietta infirmary might cease to be a political plum, we promised to remind the voters, come election day, how our Marion County Senators had voted on that point. Happily, we won't need to wait until election day. Last week all the Marion County Senators joined in an amendment that added Julietta to the list of institutions to be administered under the city-county health board. Then the Senate passed the amended health bill by a vote of 43 to 2. - > ; Yesterday the amended bill passed the House by an overwhelming margin. :

’ au & * > THIS ACTION is the most important thing the General Assembly has done for Marion County in this session.

_It will placé administration of Julietta under non-:

partisan, nonpolitical trustees who also will control all public-health and hospital facilities in the. county. It- will make possible an end of the waste and slipshod management at Julietta that neither political party has been able to correct under the inefficient system of the past. It can provide better care for county wards, many of them ill .and aged, at substantial savings of tax money. An almost identical plan already has produced such results at Sunnyside, the county's tuberculosis hospital, which had had similar difficulties under political administration. ] The whole health bill is a big step forward for Marion County government.

» ” ” THE Marion County Senators who made this amendment possible are Cecil McConahey, Greyble McFarland, Judson West, Hoyt Moore, Mrs. Mary Garrett and Dr. Walter Kelly. . Mrs. Garrett and Dr. Kelly had voted for

- .the previous bill for Julietta reform ‘which would have had

statewide application, the others against. All approved this amendment, and all yoted for passage of the amended bill.

In doing so they have performed a service for good and »

efficient government in Marion County which we trust Marion County voters will remember . . . and of which we are_most happy to remind them. | | Fund... TA Ta ea ap holié parishes today will complete their 1951 collection for relief of' war victims, which has been in progress during the past week. Known as the Bishops’ Fund for Victims of War, it is designed to support the relief work abroad of the War Relief Services, National Council of Catholic Women and the Bishops’ Emergency

~ Relief Committee.

In the past the Fund has helped in 62 countries with 342 million pounds of food, medicine and clothing, valued at nearly ‘$148 millions. Aid is given those who need it, without regard to race, creed or color. :

Indianapolis parishes in past years have responded

most generously to this worthy-appeal. It is deserving of the fullest support.

Showdown for Russia

AS PART of an intensified “peace campaign,” Russia has been angling for a Big Four Foreign Ministers’ Con-

~~ ference since last November. :

It began with a Russian note denouncing the Allies’ feeble move toward rearming Western Germany. Moscow proposed an immediate conference on “demilitarization” of Germany. A wide-scale exchange of notes between Moscow and the Allied capitals followed, the Western Powers insisting that any such conference be devoted to the whole range of issues causing world tension. Now the stage has been set for at least a preliminary meeting of Big Four representatives—not the foreign ministers, but their deputies. These talks open in Paris tomor-

_ TOW.

~ » » THE PARIS parley will provide, primarily, a showdown on the genuineness of Russia's professed desire for peace. Highlight of her current campaign was Stalin’s interview with himself disclaiming any war aims, And there has been a constant propaganda broadside from Moscow on the thesis that the Soviet Union is the only real leader today of the world forces for peace. : -If Russia means that, she can give evidence of it at Paris by agreeing to confer on all the issues currently dividing the Eastern and Western camps. The Paris talks also should provide a vital test of our own Allies. Britain and France, still not committed to allout preparedness, are going into this, or the later conference, with high hopes for some sort of compromise agree-ment-with Stalin which ld take the pressure off their own needs for rearming?” Stalin knows that—which automatically reduces Allied bargaining power.

” n n IN OUR own case, we are sending over, as head of the American delegation, Owen Lattimore's pal, Dr. Philip C. Jessup—the man who drafted the “China White Paper” which abandoned China to the Communists. And of course eur State Department hasn't even suggested discussion of such an unpleasant subject as the Soviet-inspired war in Korea. : So, under the circumstances, don’t count too much on the Paris’ Conference as pointing the way to world peace.’

Just a Hint to Harry?

SOME enterprising reporter should explore the reasons why the 22d Amendment to the U. S. Constitution—

limiting presidential tenure to two elective terms and 10 years over-all—went booming to final enactment in little more than a month this year. - After the amendment won congressional approval in 1947, 18 states endorsed it in fairly rapid order. ‘But only three joined the list in 1948, two'in 1949 and one in 1950.

** Then, suddenly, the surge began on-Jan. 19, 1951. Between

. that date and Feb. 26, the necessary 12 states to meet the legal requirement of 36 ratified the proposal. Maybe people, reading the signs of decay in the longentrenched Democratic regime, are, at last convinced that long tenure in the White House isn't the best thing for a healthy democracy. 3 Pa: v

HOW TO LIVE . . . By Frederick C. Othman

Feel Sorry for Poor Harry—?

VINA DEL MAR, Chile, Mar. 3—~Having been out in high society, South American style, I can report that President Truman lives in a slum, President Gabriel Gonzalez Videla of Chile does better. . El Presidente asked me to lunch at Cerro Castillo, his summer palace, along with 50° other fellows representing the United Nations Economic Council now meeting at Santiago, and I must say that his place makes the White House look like a walk-up flat. Don Gabriel and his beauteous blonde wife live in a Mediterrean style mansion on top of a bluff overlooking the Pacific. They are sur-’ reg RSL Reve {s nothing between them and Australia éXcept the deep, blue Sea. The snack turned out to be something special, with gold-encrusted winegglasses Bf-crystal with stems 12 inches tall, d chicken, fish, cheese, beef, mushrooms, ham, vegetables and fruits. in a bewildering array of courses. It ended with cognac and coffee in cups of pink and gold and if I were the society editor, I could tell you who was there.

streak of red paint on his forehead; the chief of the Russian delegation managed to make himself agrecable for a change by smiling and passing out Russian cigarets with long cardboard tips. So El Presidente and his wife were celebrating their 25th wedding anniversary, served pisco cocktails by the sea and then sat their guests down at small tables under a green awning on the terrace. . On my left was the commander of the Chilean navy; on my right the president's

daughter. Rosita. I don’t thigk I used the wrong spoon or pulled any other serious boners, except for burning a hole through the linen handkerchief of one of the guests and calling Rosita a senorita. » She looked like a 17-year-old child in a blue linen dress to me, but she assured me she was an elderly senora of 23, married these several years to a Senor Claro’ (who never did make an appearance) and the mother—she said—of the three most beautiful children in all Chile. This international society of diplomacy, it develops, entertains itself about like us poor people. So when we'd finished coffee and lit cigarets, one of the Chilean diplomats said if you spread a handkerchief tightly over a coin the size of a half dollar you could not burn a hole in it. He proceeded to demonstrate. I told him I'd like to try. The poor, innocent man handed over his handkerchief and I scorched such a hole that he almost had to call for a fire extinguisher. Serves him right for doing parlor tricks at a diplomatic luncheon.

Not Enough Gasoline : AFTER this incendiary display I had a little walk under the hibiscus bushes with Don Horatio Wal an exceedingly likable gentleman he turned out to be.’ He said—and I am pleased to pass the word along—that there was no chance this year: for war with Russia, if for no other reason than that the Russkies simply haven't got enough gasoline to keep a big fight going. «nn H1R.-583d. what, Chile needed now was more North American tourists, like me, to spend their dollars here and take nothing back with them except pleasant memories. Not a bad idea: I've never seen a more attractive place than Vina Del Mar. So we shook hands all around and El Presidente sent me downtown to my hotél in a palace car. I was pleased to note that it was a blue Chevrolet sedan of three seasons ago, polished to the last gasp, with chauffeur to match.

Hoosier Takes Heal for NTEA

WASHINGTON, Mar. 3—Whether the House Ways and Means Committee members are so sore about the publicity sent out by the National Tax Equality Association that they will not give its program much consideration in the general tax bill remains to be seen. As spokesman for NTEA, Clarence A. Jackson, executive vice president of the Indiana State Chamber of Commerce; laid that program before the committee..and-took the heat on the publicity, with which he had little or nothing to do. He supplied each committee member with a 31-page study supporting a four-point program which he read as a | witness before the sharpshooting started. Expressing his own qualificatiohs as an expert on tax subjects, Mr. Jackson said he has been a “bureaucrat on both state and national levels.”

‘A Billion Dollars’

HAVING organized the gross income tax, under then Gov. Paul V. McNutt, he later served here on the staff of the Federal Security Agency which Mr. McNutt headed. Mr. Jackson estimated that the U. 8. Treasury could obtain “more than a billion dollars” if the business income of all “presently taxexampt profit-seeking corporations” were taxed. His study listed the type of organizations and the amounts of additional revenue as follows: Mutual savings banks $197,541,000; savings and loan associations $191,059,000; credit unions $10,846,000; - production credit associations $2,937,000; national’ farm loan associations $2,972,000; mutual fire and casualty insurance companies $60,000,000. In addition, there was under the heading “Government in Business” the following:

Mr. Jackson +. . target

HOOSIER FORUM—

‘It's A Tough Job To Change Police And Firemen’s Salaries’

out a corresponding reduction in another item.

Federal $150 million; state $70 million; municipalities and local $190 million. Last on the Jackson list was $294 million, making a grand total of $1,169,355,000. He vehemently denied, under questioning by Chairman Robert L. Doughton (D, N. C.) that

the real purpose of NTEA is to “put co-opera-tives out of business.” ; He also said that he didn’t think the $600,000 budget,of the organization is excessive and that he doesn’t get any salary as a director. Rep. Daniel A. Reed (R. N. Y.) called the organization a ‘racket” and said businessmen who contribute to it are “suckers.” That its purpose is to destroy co-operatives was labeled by Mr. Jackson “a malicious, propagandizing lie” and that businessmen who support the organization cannot be classed as racketeers. : ;

‘Double Taxation’

ALTHOUGH, as a theory, he is opposed to taxing corporation profits and dividends both, the time is here now when ‘double taxation” is necessary and should be applied to all, Mr. Jackson maintained. “I would like to emphasize,” Mr. Jackson concluded, “that the revenue possibilities which lie in corporate income taxation result from the fact that the income is taxed twice—once to the corporation and a second time when received by the members of the corporation. “If you are to remedy the unfair competit tive situation which the businessmen of the county insist must be done, and if you are going to obtain any revenues from the taxation of co-operative and mutual corporations, you must see to it that every dollar such corporation earns is taxed, once at the corporate level and again at the individual level. “The co-operatives claim" that their income is not their income for tax purposes. Experts

disagree. We need more double tax and less.

What's That Dollar

Worth to You Now? Pork Chops and Automobiles Can Tell

The Story of Inflation Here and Now JOE CASHED in his war bonds the other day. The ones he

bought in 1940, with $750 he had saved. Said he needed the money. He got it . ..

shiny new bills. The $750 he had loaned for him in those ten years.

Then he did a little figuring. In 1940, when his savings finally. came to $750, he was drawing average wages . . . 66 cents an hour. So.it had taken him 1140 hours work. t earn that $750 he'd saved. Not quite 29 weeks, counting a little overtime he got in. So that $250 his bonds had earned him ought to be equal to close to 350 hours work, at that rate. Nearly 10 weeks.

It didn’t add up, though. Joe,

still on average wages, is drawing $1.46 an hour now. These days 350 hours work brings in $511, not $250. Wages, he recalls, have gone up. These days the 1140 hours work that brought him the. $750 he invested in those bonds would bring him $1664.40. :

Now they only bring him,

when .he cashes in his bonds, .

$1000. :

He's $664.40 short, somehow. ’ LAN.

GOOD thing wages are up, though, because prices certainly are higher. In 1940 his $750, if he hadn't chosen to invest it in bonds, would have brought him a new Ford, or Chevrolet, or Plymouth. For not much over $1000 he could have gotten a new Buick, or Chrysler. Only three or four makes of cars went very much above $1200. Today his $1000 will barely make the downpayment on most models. Cars that sold in 1940 for $750 to $1200 run from $1700 up these days.

And not only cars. Round

" steak that was 36 cents a

pound when he bought the bonds sells for 97 cents now. Pork chops have gone from 28

cents to 86. Butter that was:

36 cents then, is 2 cents now, and eggs are up from- 33 cents 10°67. : As nearly as Joe can calculate, it would take about $1500 today to buy what his $750 would have bought in 1946. His $750 has grown to $1000, of course. short of what he started with,

10. vears ago, so far as huying.

Is concerned. Slowly it dawns on him that he hasn't made $250 . . . he's lost $500 on the deal in terms of automobiles, pork chops and hours of work. He begins to understand what all this talk about “inflation” means.

OF COURSE, if he hadn't bought the bonds, but just kept the money in cash he'd have done even worse. He now would still have $750, instead of $1000. So in terms of that automobile he had his eyes on, he’d have lost $750 by not buying the bonds, instead of $500 by buying them. Same thing applies to his insurance policies, too. Retirement policies that would pay $100 a month after he quit work will still pay $100 a month . . . but it will only buy half as much as it would when he began paying on them. The $100 was worth 150

But it's still $500 .

05 5.4

hours of work in 1940. Today..

150 hours of work cost $219. Catch is, though, he paid for this insurance, and for cash, and for the bonds, at the old rate, when a man had to work 150 hours . . . almost a “full month . , . to get $100.

JOE IS confused, to put it mildly, and he ign’t alone in that. Ever since about the time

$1000 in bright,

his government had earned $250

he bought his bonds, in 1940, there has been much talk by government officials a blout stopping, and preventi flation. Through most of the period from 1940 to 1946 prices and wages were “frozen” by law to keep them from rising.

A MONTH ago they were “frozen” again, for the same

purpose, to prevent inflation. Somehow they rose anyways,

This week the Office of Price Stabilization told. the auto manufacturers they could put their prices up 3%’ per cent more . . . that’s $§70.on a $2000 job... On account of their higher costs, pointing out at “the same time that this much increase would not cover the rise they've already had in costs so there would have to be another one pretty soon. About the same time the

. wage stabilization director

said wages could go up another 10 per cent, which will be about $6 a week for the average worker, besides certain other increases already granted. The nation’s top union leaders said that wasn’t anywhere near enough and stalked out in a huff, and most folks believed they'd get what they wanted, since they almost always have. So manufacturers’ costs would then go up some more, and prices would have to. be adjusted again to cover those added costs and that would make the cost of living higher and so provide a good argument for another pay increase. It's popular to blame the » Korean, War and the rearmament. prograni® for. all this, since war always causes some inflation, but the ract is that hasn’t even begun yet. Govern= ment spending for arms has been less than normal during the six months past because orders couldn't be placed and

production started that quickly. : vpn on BaF yma

IT IS going to make th government's job of selling bonds a little harder since they can hardly be sold as a good investment in the face of the facts, but will have to be offered on strictly patriotic motives. Bonds would go down, right now, probably, except that the government won’t let them go down. It buys, at face value, in a- program much like thq “support” program on potatoes, through the Federal Reserve System, whatever bonds are for sale, to keep the price steady. In dollars, that is. Nothing can keep any price steady in terms of pork chops and automobiles when inflation 'is running. The buying creates more inflation.

Whenever a bond is bought, because its price might fall, it becomes the basis for credit. Each bond, which is a promise to pay and nothing else, is placed in a Federal Reserve Bank vault as collateral for loans of currency. That makes more currency in circulation, and that makes the bond price drop still more, so the government has to buy more of them, and then it can issue more credit, and make bonds go still lower...

“ ‘City’s Hands Are Tied".

MR. EDITOR:

I have read with interest the letters you -

have printed concerning the salaries paid city policemen and firemen, particularly the letters written by a group of city firemen and printed Feb. 27.

In that letter they stated that firemen had.

not received a salary increase for four years. This is a misstatement as the police and firemen received a $300-a-year salary increase in 1949, In the handling of city finances it is necessary for the City to anticipate its expenses for a period of 18 months in advance so that the tax rate for the following year may be computed. For example, the budget for 1951 was prepared last summer and approved by the City Council last August. . Sb ’ #, AT THE time of the Council hearings cn the budget, representatives, of both the nelice and fire departments were present and no question or objection was raised as to the salaries, It should be remembered that the Council does not fix salaries and.-has no authority to increase salaries. It can only reduce or reject. laws, the City must live within its budget and cannot spend moré money for one item with-

Under present’

Since most of the City’s expenses consist of salaries, it is impossible to grant any salary increases at this time. : If any extra funds should become available later in the year it may be possible to transfer funds and grant some increases. The plight of police and firemen is no different from that of other city or government employees whose salaries are fixed in advance.

* 4

THE FINANCES of the City have been impaired for several years by arbitrary reductions

in the City’s budget made by the County Tax

Adjustment Board. - For example, last year they approved without question a-24-cent increase in the School Board's budget, but made an arbitrary reduction in the City's budget despite the fact that it was 6 cents lower than the year before. The

! City is further handicapped by ‘a law which

prevents it from maintaining any emergency fund in the way of a cash balance. Thus it becomes necessary for the City to borrow several million dollars each year against taxes payable later in the year. Li I know that ail of the members of the City Council are sympathetic with the problems of the city employees and are anxious to do any-

MR. EDITOR:

Bravo for labor. I do not belong to what is termed ‘‘organized labor” but I glory in their grit for walking out on that “legalized robbery” they call price and wage control. It stinks to high heaven, and has from the start. In the first place, the price-control law was not passed for the purpose of holding down prices. before an important election. why the farmer was exempt from it. Any 10-year-old kid knows you cannot hold a price line when food is not included in the control. In the second place, the men controlling the price machinery, do now want to control business. cd - WHAT they want to do, and any honest per-
