H a rris E llsw o rth . Congressman. 4th D is tric t After many months of discus sion, the House Ways and Means Committee produced a tax bill. It reduces a number of the more irritating "war excise" taxes To make up for revenue thus elim inated, the committee provided for some additional taxation, the heavy burden of which will fall on l a r g e corporate incomes There is little doubt that the bill will pass both House and Sen ate and be signed by the Presi dent. It should be noted that this tax bill does not actually reduce or eliminate t a x e s at will raise substantially the same amount of money as is being levied now. The new bill shifts the places from which tax col lections are made and it will seem like a mild relief But the people, the consumers, w ill con tinue to pay the taxes — indi rectly. WANTED: A LITTLE FEAR— A veteran air line pilot who had broken all records for safe flying was asked how he did it. He replied that he had never taken off without a little fear in his heart.

They built stockades for protection, and they kept their powder dry. That is what the air line pilot meant when he confessed fear. Not timidity. His was intelligent fear. This weekend millions of Americans will com memorate the birth of this nation’s independence.
