Joe Marsh
TnAD Phibbs' house got struck by
lightnin'a couple of nights ago.The
kitchen chimney was knocked of!
and the roof set on fire, and Thad
found things pretty lively and ex
citin' for a spell.
The fire was soon out though,
thanks to the prompt and eiucient
work of the local fire department,
ns the paper says . . . and I never
seen a man so grateful as Thad.
Chief Ed Carey was sort of em
barrassed, I guess, by the thanks
that was bein' heaped on him.
"That's all right, Sir. Phibbs," he
savs. "That's all right, sir (hat's
uhat you pay taxes for"
From where I sit, I'd say Chief
Ed's remark seems to have a les
son in it... a lesson on the way
that taxes come back in mighty
real benefits to the people.
Take the taxes on beer, Trm
stance more than 2'i billion dol
lars, I hear, figurin' federal, stale
and local, in the nine years since
beer's been back.
There was a time remember
when a lot of that money went
into the pockets of bootleggers and
blind pigs. But today it's coming
right back to the treasuries of the
nation, the states and the local
communities . . . for the benefit of
everybody.
Some goes, for example, to pay
for the things Uncle Sam needs to
fight the war with . . . for tanks
and ships and bombers.
Quito a lot goes for things like
public health, and education, and
good roads and the like.
And some of it, I surmise, has
gone to support the fire company
that gave Thad such good service
the other night.
To moderate folks, who like a
friendly glass of beer now and then,
there's a sort of satisfaction in
knowing that right now this bever
age of moderation is furnishin' the
public treasuries well over a mil
lion dollars every single day.
That's quite a lot of money es
pecially nowadays when L'ncle Sam
needs every cent he can get hold of.
