last year, the World Calendar came before the economic and social council meeting of the United Nations in Geneva, ; : Seventeen nations have approved it: Afghanfstan, Brazil, Chile, (Chma, Czechoslovakia, Greece, Hungary, Mexico, Norway, Panama, Peru, Spain, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Turkey, Uruguay and the Estonian SSR.

For example, the early Roman calendar was so devised that extra months had to be inserted to kéep the calendar up to date with the seasons. The officials were responsible for adding months. Politicians were seldom careful and often added extra months to the year to stay in office longer. Julius Cesar brought about a

But all the same there was never a flat surface on board which kept quite still in relation to its surroundings. As the foundation moved up and down "and round at every joint, everything else moved with it.

The very first day we were left alone on the sea we had noticed fish round the raft, but we were too much occupied —ith the steering to think of fishing. The second day we went right into a thick shoal of sardines, and soon afterward an 8-foot shark came along and rolled over with its white belly uppermost as it rubbed against the

raft’'s stern, where Herman and

Bengt stood barelegged in the seas, steering.- It played round us for a while but disappeared when we got the hand harpoon ready for action. Next day we were visited by tunnies, bonitos, and dolphins, and when a big flying fish thudded on board we used it as bait and at once pulled in two large dolphins (dorados) weighing from 20 to 35 pounds each. This was food for several days

The teeth were as sharp as knives and could be folded back into the roof of the mouth to make way for what was swallowed.

from the article they feed on. Somehow they always get bigger, until the basic worth of the commodity they festoon is Jost beneath a fungus of tax. The “easy” tax. the hidden tax, the penny-worth sales tax, the “painless” tax is a sinister thing in its encroachment on good living. No government ever wants to relinquish an easy buck, once its peoples are accustomed to the little extra added bite. re With the precedent firmly established, it is always easy to meet a cash demand by tacking the extra penny on the cigarettes, the extra buck or so on the booze, the extra percentage points on the autos. We have the example of the wartime luxury levies that were not removed when the war ended. We have the New York sales tax, born under LaGuardia for welfare purposes, which has just been tilted ro three per cent.

1 DO NOT CARE to think of the things we enjoy In America, which are largely untasted and unused by the masses elsewhere, as luxuries, subject to penalty as frivolous possessions. An auto is not a luxury here at home. It is a vital necessity to the individual, and its production keys the economy of the country. I do not think that cigarettes or radio sets or whisky are luxuries, either. Their manufacture and distribution supplies vast employment and billions of dollars to the people... - A simple old adage says you can ride a free horse to death, and a simpler old economic adage, which I just coined, says that the ability to buy is based on the ability to pay. Cut down to a point where even a Washington economist can understand, it is obvious that a man quits buying when the price of the purchase mushrooms so much that he can't afford to indulge himself in super extravagance for actual value received.

Just Ask Us

Q—Would it be possible to have a winter in New England without snow? A—It is very doubtful that a winter without snow in some parts of New England could occur. Tt is conceivable that some parts of southern New England, particularly along the coast. might experience a snowless winter, though even this is unlikely.

life have dwindled, and a flock of what used to be called necessities have gone away, too. The government of any country is empowered, in emergencies, to raise taxes, as taxes, to the saturation point, and to curtail the manufacture of frivolities and nonessentials. Most of us are willing to hold still for it, and willing or not, do accept it.
