Recently newspaper stories dramatized inequities in our present Federal income ta i structure by pointing out that 112 Americans with incomes over 5200.000 per year paid no income ta le s in 1970 Most of those articles attributed the reason to loopholes in the system Congressman Wtlbur Mills Chairman of tne House Ways and Means Committee asked hts staff to make a study of those 112 returns anc the results led him to observe It is important to realize that there car. be occasions »her. legitim ate ex penses do m a single year eiceed ar. individual s income As a resu lt it seem s to me that one cannot prom ise under any tai system no m atter now reform ed that there may never be anyone with adjusted gross income of S20C.0OC or more who pays no ta i " Personally 1 strongly favor a ta i law wnich would make it impossible for anyone in the mgner income ranges tc completely avoid paying Federal income ta le s by stringing togetner a series of exemptions anc deductions But we shouic keep clearly in mind mat one person s deduction often becomes anotner s loophoie We need to examine carefully all special exemptions and deductions while recognizing that it is not desirable to strike out all suer, arrangem ents Few people, for example believe tnat deductions for charitable contributions or for rea. property tax payments snould be completely eliminated or that dependency exemptions should be cropped A: present there are at least three ta i reform peexages tna: are being discussec m Congress President Nixon nas pledged to submit a tax reform message to Congress anc! m hopeful tnat his proposals will oe before us soon With the public solidly behind meaningful tax reform Congress snould oe willing ic pick one of the proposals and act on it Tax reform is elusive Every move in tins directior. like th*-- Tax Reform Act of twe years age leaves questions or actually p ro duces new questions Just recently the W ays and Means Committee announced tnat it would hold public hearings on the related problems of the tax treatm ent of single persons anc tne tax treatm ent of m arried p e r sons where both the husband and wife are working There is no doubt tnat we snould carefully consider tax reform in this area but it raises ar. important point anc question Since World War II every piece of tax reform legislation has resulted in a loss of revenue for the federal government While we have reduced the burden or. those bearing inordinately heavy tax loads we haver, t shifted the load anywhere else Chairman Mills recently said 'I tnink it would be difficult to change our habits in tnat respect Lniess we cnange our pan err. of action the next tax reform bill in all probability will give back m ore revenue over a period of time than it will take in over the sam e period of time Sc when we talk aDout tax reform dc we really mean that we only want to lighter, the load on some taxpayers' Or dc we want tc work for reform that will dc away with inequities and still p ro vide enough revenue to cover ongoing Federa. p ro g ram s' And if the latter then tne real emphasis must be or. improved equity and not simply on lowering taxes Every now and again I stum ble across a t article from a- Dottier paper or publication I think mign: interest readers of the News. Such is the fol lowing oom me nt on the gener ation gap reprinted from, the monthly Bulletin published by the Governor of Rotary Dis tric t 511 wbc, lncid-ntally, picked it up from, a publlcatwc called the “ Robbins R eader.” It’s titled “ Memo to Y ester day’s Young.” “ Newspapers are printing a lost of sto n e s these days a- bout the ‘generation gap’ as if it were news. B’s new only to the young. For centuries older people with bad meme o n e s ) have go? uptigtr when their sons and daughters be gan feeling their emotional and menta. oats. Samuel Johnson, two centuries age, said ‘Every old man complains af the grow ing depravity of the world and the insolence of the rising gen- era tio n .’ Nearly twenty "five cen tu rie s ago, Euripides was sigh ing, Tt we could be twice as young and twice as old we could correct all our mistakes.* In one of his letters to his son, Lord Chesterfield declar ed, ‘Young men are apt to think them selves wise enough, as drunken men thinx them selves sober enougr..’ yet. if there Is one lesson history teaches It is tha- progress com es about because young people a re dissatisfied with ex isting conditions and think they can do something about them.. They all go through their po litical and social puberty, and sound off about how terrible ‘things’ are . If anything ever comes of their shouting it is because enough of the sbout- ers keep their cool and WORK tc achieve the possible. By the time your *wi: is single and your chin is double’ you nc doubt will conclude that your generation hasn’t done too bad ly. You prooabiy will taxe quite a oit of personal satis faction when you recal how ‘things’ were once. Now, there a re some brand new problems tc be faced—some of them pret ty tough. Be glad that a brand new generation—with some of the spizzerinctum. you used to have—is on hand to tackle them.. Wish these young people success! it’s their turn now. Be a good sport.

After re- ceiving a note from, form er r e s ident Nell Kirkpatrick, how ever, maybe I’d best enjc-v things as they are. Nell is living down in Fresnc now and sent me the follow ing not on the bxck of her subscription renewal: “ You had eight tnches of rain within 24 hours. We’ve had a fraction over four inches since July 1, 1971 She went on to say that they have a serious shortage of water, and that we may have all of California’s residents up here if it continues. •P» Also received word from. Norm. Baker that he will be heading back to Port Orford the last of this month. “ Four more weeks down here 'Pain.
