I w as one of a few m en chosen
to go to a re a r-a re a rest cam p fo r a
few days o f rest and re lax atio n in

T h a t is
w here I am now and why I am able
to w rite to you.
I have been g ettin g your m ail p ret­

T h e m ail really does "g o th rou g h "

I w as very p leasan tly surprised one

I guess he is going thru
the sam e kind of an exp erien ce there
as we a re here in A frica.
I received your le tte rs s ta tin g th a t

W h en we do g et paid
m ost of us Ju st get it at one table
and then w alk to the n ext one and

Hints To
Taxpayers
Babson Advises Readers
To Analyze Tax Situation
B abson P a rk , M ass., D ec. 3—F ir s t,
let me say a word to young b u sin ess­
m en who cla im th a t they have not
the op portu nity of m ak in g a fo rtu n e
w hich th e ir eld ers had.
T h ey claim
th a t at th e ir age th e m oney w hich
th e ir elders w ere perm itted to save
fo r a business nest egg is now tak e n
aw ay by the gov ern m en t in the form
o f tax es.
L e t me say th is is m erely
an alibi fo r laziness, in efficie n cy and
e x tra v a g a n t ideas.
Sev ere T a x e s B e n e fit Y ou ng People
L et us assu m e a m an w ith a salary
of $3,000 who has a w ife and tw o
child ren
His F ed eral tax would be
about $350.
I t is tru e th a t he has
th is much less money to save or In­
vest tow ard buying an in te re st in
som e business.
On the o th e r hand
although th e n et Incom e, a fte r tax es
of the young execu tiv e is reduced by
a ta x of about 12rf , h is em ployer
would probably be oblidged to pay a
ta x of 500f’ to 75C}, o f his n et incom e.
T h is red uces the value o f th e busi­
ness to the em ployer and ca u se s him
to sell it m uch
ch eap er
th an
If
these heavy ta x e s did not exist.
B e fo re th ese F e d e ra l ta x e s w en t
into e ffe ct a m an could die and leave
his busin ess o u trig h t to his fam ily as
th e death ta x e s w ere very sm all. T o ­
day, how ever, in a g re a t m an y cases
th e fam ily is com pelled to sell a p art
in te rest in th e b u sin ess in ord er to
secu re funds to pay th e d eath tax es.
T h is gives an excep tion al op portu nity
to young execu tiv es employed in th e
busin ess to secu re an in te re st a t a
very low price.
Ix>w Money K a te s Help Y oung People
T h e p resen t F e d e ra l cellin g on In­
te re st rates en ables young people to­
day to buy a hom e or bu sin ess and
pay fo r It w ith an In te re st rate o f
perhaps only h a lf w hat th ey would
be obliged
to pay b efore th ese ta x ­
es went into e ffe c t.
I, m yself, am a
d irecto r o f a b an k w hich h as today
voted to loan a young m an m oney a t
3% in order to buy an in te re st In a
d ep artm en t store.
T h is sam e mon­
ey would have co st h im 9% fifte e n
y ears ago.
B u sin ess su cce ss is not a m a tte r
of leg islatio n ; but ra th e r o f heredity,
industry, in te g rity and vision. W h a t­
ever our system o f g ov ernm ent, a
ce rta in group, who save, w ork and
in tellig en tly plan, will alw ays be on
top.
All young people have a g re a t­
e r op portu nity to succeed in the tru e
sen se today th a n ever before.
E v en
child ren o f th e w ell-to-do m ay be b et­
te r o ff under high
F e d e ra l tax es.
