THE SPEEDWAY ELYER

AERIAL bombs and floating mines are going to seem- pretty cheap on V-Day. Their values will appear again as minus quantities. Then slow, cautious men will set to work getting rid of them. But there are other instiuments of war more ruinous than any block-buster ever devised, and we have one; trained on American industry now, ready to start doing serious damage on Armistice Day. It is a law against progress. The bill was not passed to stop scientific and industrial development, but if it’s on the statute books in peace time it wiH be a government freeze of creative work. I am not criticizing the purposes of the act It was passed in 1940 to raise money for national defense and to keep warmongers from profiteering on the misfortunes of others. Law of THE SENSE of the law Hunger is this: Add up all the profits a firm made in four pre-war years, 1986-1939 inclusive; figure 25% of the total and call it a sample pre-war year’s profit. If a corporation earns more than that amount in any year of war, it must pay the government 85% of the difference in a special tax. It wps effective for war ends, but how will it work in peace time? The 1940 tax law has provisions that are ruinous to any people at peace. Small business concerns can’t grow if the law stands. Huge corporations will fare better. They can stay big and avoid beine wrecked by it be-

turn to Santa Anna, Calif., this week-end. This is the longest leave Phil has ever had since his induction and we hope he has had a grand and glorious time. Pfc. Bob Bland and Mrs. Bland returned to Speedway from California last Sunday evening for a 16-day furlough.

Stymie Law By GEORGE S BENSON httidtni oi Hording College Searcy. Arkansas

cause the profits of giant corporations (however big) grow slowly. But the law will paralyze small business unless a new act is pas ied, to take effect at the war’s end, repealing the mischievous provisions. Stops THRIFTY little enterWork prises can’t expand because their dollars of increased profit will be split two ways, 15<“ to keep and 85c for the government. Many will die as losses on development of new products wipe out their meager Capital. Huge firms, which have no need for substantial growth, can develop new products with no danger at all to their strong financial position. A big company’s losses on new developments can be used to reduce taxes on profits from old business. In this way, government bears most of such losses for big concerns. It mpst be remembered however* that big corporations are too few to solve the nation’s post - war employment problem. Small firms, companies that could double twice and still not be large, are the backbone of America’s prosperity. Small companies employ fourfifths of the nation’s workers. They handle the lion’s share of 'our national income. What their employees eat makes farm prosperity. If these little firms see a chance to earn a profit, they will expand for pehce . . . new business and new jobs in large numbers. But if until V-Day they remain scared to expand, America is stymied and so is the world.
