THE INDICATOR that point* to primary objective* on Uncle Sam'r dial moved, last August 12, from Victory to Employment. Correctly this nation’s first aim from December 7, 1941, to. V-J Day was to win the war and save the world’s free peoples from despotic rule; worth all it cost in bloodp sweat and tears. Now that’s finished, and the new primary objective is to hold what’s been gained. Damages have been fearful. Some never can be repaired; some can. There are twisted minds and broken hearts, wounds to heal and debts to pay. Those losses that can be won back will demand much time and patience. By their very nature, they are deferred. But unemployment is another aggressive enemy; not to be put off. We provide work nov> or lose what our young men bought with their lives. Jobs WAR’S end touched off First much talk about post-war legislation but all of it is relatively unimportant except what has to do with gainful employment. Since 15,000 men will lay down arms every day for 14 months, one of three things must happen: (1) Private industry must expand and make room for them, (2) Government will make a big WPA for them or <3) Want will bring desperation. A hungry and outraged people rush mob-like to dictatorship. An army-size WPA marches with slave-like steps to the same destination. Well paid jobs in private industry with opportunity

Homes Needed For Servicemen And Families Having Difficult Time Finding Place To Live How close has the housing shortage come to you? Perhaps a member of your family or a close friend just back from long months of overseas service has been faced with the difficult job of finding a place-to live. If so, maybe you know the discouragement and feeling of helplessness confronting these men and their families who for so long have been looking forward to a normal life in some small corner of Indianapolis.

for improvement and advancement constitute the only work fit for a free people. It is the only solution worthy of America’s dean record. Industry must expand and make jobs. It is the only way to remain free. Tax Is ONLY one thing stands Threat in the way tun/ Expanding industry, enough to make the needed jobs, calls for investment* which (same as jobs) have to pay. Today’s, taxes, however, make it very hard to find a paying investment that will make jobs. The tax laws were all right in 1940 when they were enacted to take the profit out of war. Now they threaten to ruin our future by taking the prosperity out of peace. It is my conviction that corporation taxes and standard individual taxes should be levied at the same rate. I think the structure should be high enough to meet the requirements of the proposed budget without having any surtaxes higher than 50%. For an investor to pay out more than half his income in taxes win discourage large* investments—the very kind needed. With a few specific exceptions I oppose excise taxes and consider it wrong in principle to tax distributed income of corporation* mor* than once. Excess profits tax should be eliminated at once. A fair tax policy, and certainly an expedient one, will encourage capital investments for profit in going' concerns rather than in government bonds.'' We want Mr right trxtt fir thr mtt jrh.

of Homes Registry, Inc., 224 N. Meridian street tells us, “Each day more discharged veterans, military personnel and returning war workers come to our office, each with an individual placement problem but all in common have no place to live. Until one is faced with a housing problem himself, he can have no comprehensive view of the housing situation. We need conveniently located rooms, home sharing listings, and above all, private apartments and the many worthwhile applicants we meet at Homes Registry. “We have been gratified to receive listings from Florida-bound families which have proven very satisfactory. We hope more people will cooperate in alleviating the shortage by listing their homes with us while on vacation.” Mrs Manthei, commenting on

Girl Scouts News Girl Scouts of Troop No. 96 celebrated their fifth birthday on Monday, November 19. A pitch-in supper was held in the social room of the Christian Church. Sixty-seven guests were present Twenty-one girls, two leaders, one associate member and five troop commjttee members reregistered for another year of scouting. After the supper a candlelighting ceremony was held as a birthday celebration. The members of the troop were then presented with the “My Troop” badge, which they have been working on. A letter of depreciation was read from the Red Cross Canteen Service, thanking the girls for the 15 dozen cookies which they baked recently for the Stout Field Hospital Canteen. The rest of the evening was taken up with folk dancing by girls and parents taking part. (Everyone reported a good time. The leaders of this troop wish to express their appreciation to the troop committee for their splendid cooperation during the past year. They also wish to thank the church board and Mr. Hatfield for providing a place to meet, Mrs. Stanley, who gives so freely of .her time and shares her garden surplus that nature projects may be furthered, also the parents of the girls for their interest and cooperation in our program efforts and everyone else in Speedway who helps to make scouting a worthwhile success. Mrs. Paul (Parke is chairman of the troop committee. Members of the committee with her are Mrs. Karl Degener, Mrs. Walter Toomey, Mrs. Robert Hass and Mrs. Carl Richards. Mrs. Ray Brumley is an associate member and the leaders are Mrs. Charles Brockman and Mrs. W. L. Heston.

the recent proposal of veterans organizations to canvass the city for share home openings, said: “We should be very glad to cooperate in any way possible with any veteran group in obtaining housing units for veterans. It is very likely that a direct personal appeal will open the doors of many homes the owners of which heretofore have not quite realized the acute need for their assistance.” Call Li 7365 today and let this Community Fund sponsored agency send you an appreciative tenant.
