Once Oyer Lightly

With the Republicans hoping to

et their income tax reduction

11 through Congress before they

djourn, perhaps it would be a ood thing to look at the provi

sions of the bill again. As you enow, the only difference is that

Hie effective date will be Jan. 1, 1

948, instead of July 1, as the

first bill stated.

Lhe bill continues the same

of tax reduction. Here is how

1 stacks up. Suppose that a

han with two dependents makes

an income of $2,500 a year. Under the bill as the Republicans want it passed, he would take home only 56 cents a week more under the "reduction" than he takes home now. Just what does the Republican party expect him to do with that 56 cents? , On the other hand, if he makes $10,000 a year, he would get a nice present from the Republicans of $7.13 a week. His takehome pay would increase that much. But, the more a man makes, the higher his take-home (ay becomes. If he gets $100,000 year, he will get to keep $258.86 week more under the Republican bill. Perhaps it is just anther Republican "help-the-rich" plan, to get more campaign contributions. It looks like it. The Democrats wanted to lower the personal exemptions so that the little man would benefit more, but Representative Knutson, who is chairman of the House ways and means committee said no. The best tip-off as to who the Republicans are standing up for is that Wall Street has openly approved the Republican plan.. ' I ! Chairman Knutson has appointed a special committee of men to draw up a new tax re

duction outline. On the committee are such men as Roswell Magill, who has long been an advocate of the Federal sales tax. In

addition there is John W. Hanes. who is credited with saving the Hearst newspaper empire. The National Association of Manufacturers, one of the most reactionary groups in the country, is represented by Cheever Cowdin, their spokesman for taxes and finances. One more is Carson S. Duncan, the economist of the As

sociation of American Railroads. - Our own Senator Capehart,

who aspires to be the Republican

candidate for president, and our

Governor Ralph Gates are no longer feuding Republican press agents say. But, in a recent speech in Washington, the Senator praised everybody but Governor Gates. That made the governor very unhappy, and every one got mad all over again. But, Republicans insist, it was merely an "over-sight". It wasn't meant to make the governor sad. The Midwest has suffered untold damage from floods along the Missouri and Mississippi rivers this spring. As we recall it, the Democrats have proposed that a Missouri Valley Authority be set up in the Midwest, similar to the Tennessee Valley Authority that has harnessed that river, prevented flooding and provided cheap power for the area. But -ho, the Republicans were against it. They felt that it would be putting the government into the power business, to the detriment of the privately owned utilities. There was no thought given to the prevention of floods for the farmer, and the small towns. However, if there had been some kind of an authority, it is barely possible that the excess waters from the Missouri that have contributed so much to the floods in that area would have been held behind dams and prevented from washing away millions of tons of topsoil into the Gulf of Mexico. Yeah, there can be no doubt. The Republicans are trufy a friend of the farmer, the small business man, and the factory worker.
