MEM Then consider this: If you had started on January 1 in the year 1236 -two hundred fifty six years before Columbus discovered America -and spent one million dollars every day throughout that year. . . . . . and if you had continued to spend one million dollars every day of every year in the 716 years that have elapsed since that time ... it would still take you until May 8, 1953, to spend as much money as the U. S. Government has collected in taxes since World War II ended. That's what the 262 billion tax dollars-which your Federal Government has collected and spent in the period from August, 1945, to January, 1952-amounts to. That's why $1.00 out of every $5.00 you've earned in the last 6H years has gone for Federal taxes. That's why $1.00 out of every $4.00 you'll earn this year is earmarked for Federal taxes. This is in addition to the State, County and Local taxes you pay Including your Stat gatolin tax. UNION OIL COMPANY OF CALIFORNIA Reprint of thit advtrtiMtntnt art availablt on nquut.
