Keating plaque, one of which will be awarded to the Rogue Valley boy who wins the Medford finals in the Rogue Valley Soap Box derby to be held here July 13. The winner also will be sent to Akron, O., for competition in the All American Soap Box derby. The plaque is awarded by the Chevrolet Motor division of General Motors, one of the sponsors of the derby; Babson and High BY ROGER W. BABSON Babson Park, Mass., (Special to Mail Tribune). Now that the first half of the year 1952 is nearly over, m- c o m e t a x reckoning still leaves i n its wake a raft of questions. For instance, if s o m e o n should ask about the ef fect of income gcrV.BabMa taxes on prof its, the answer would seem to be obvious. Taxes bite into prof its and apparently bring about slimmer margins between sales and costs. Business tries, how ever, to make up for this shrink age in profits by expanding the volume of sales. There are also other "silver linings" to the cloud. I hate high taxes as much as any reader does, but we should realize that indirectly such taxes may have certain advantages: (1) High taxes make us all work harder. (2) As high taxes are hardest on retired people living on a fixed income, these higher taxes are N forcing many of them to again become producers. (3) High taxes should make us all more inter ested in electing a better govern ment. (4) High taxes may result in increased gifts to churches, hospitals and charities. Even "excess profits" taxes have certain compensations. For example, at maximum rates, 75 cents of every dollar of excess profits may go to the govern ment in taxes. But if the corpor ation decides to spend what would go into its excess profits for research, advertising, or em ploying more salesmen, it could do so advantageously. Every dol lar of such outlay would then cost the corporation only 23 cents. Companies in a position to make use of these "thrifty" dol lars might better maintain build ings and expand sales efforts. Competitive Position of Company Should Improve Now, with some degree of cer tainty of earnings at the level where excess profits begin, there might even be a reflection there of in higher prices for the com pany's shares. What would be the position of the stockholder in such a case? The higher stock prices might bring about long term capital gains if more of the earnings are later converted into dividends. By spending money that other wise would go to taxes, the com petitive position of the-company should be improved. It should have an advantage over competi j tors who do not have excess prof its for expansion of business out of tax money. Excess profits may well increase the advertising in newspapers and magazines. Government Must Permit Profits To Continue Corporate profits provide over Open For Inspection SUNDAY, JUNE 22 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. 1 Acre Corner Lot 1 and Bath Breezeway 2 Weill ' ' Lawn and Telephone 3-2815 WESTWOOD ADDITION ROSS LANE Across from Westside School Shown above is a reproduction of Tax Advantages one-third of the income of the Federal Government. It is a par adox that the tax program which eventually might be a drag on incentive, may,- for time, itself provide an incentive to expand. In addition, the Gov erment needs the success - of every business it taxes to con tinue its defense program. Some firms, which may other wise barely break even, may then remain in the field, due to the high level of economic activ ity. So the tax program, which threatens to take away with one hand, also gives advantages with the other. There is opportunity to expand and freedom to look forward to profits. Businessmen Shuld Not Get Discouraged Stockholders can be sure there is no stock market behind the Iron Curtain. A stock market depends upon free enterprise by those companies whose shares are traded. Buying and selling then depends on available money and the existence of con fidence in the future. But taxation is not lacking be hind the Iron Curtain. Taxes are collected in Russia so as to re tard enterprise and activity. To meet the challenge of those gov ernments, however, we must show by our actions and faith that the fuller life, offered by the free world, pays. We must maintain not only the freedom to work, save, and invest, but we must work and save and invest.

We were going to hold a little contest with them and, see If any of you folks could name all the breeds, but as we don't know what all of them aie ourselves, we wouldn't get far.

Cows deserve good care all the time not Just when they are In production, for each pound of body weight you ran put on the average cow In your herd during her dry period you can safely anticipate from 15 to 25 pounds ad ditional milk production from that! cow during the following lactation. !
