151 Taxes on Loaf
Of Bread, Research
Foundation Shows
New York (U.R) The Tax
Foundation, a private research
organization, said the price of
bread has doubled in the past
20 years, reflecting the fact that
ihe-e are 151 taxes on a single
loaf.
lhe foundation arrived at this
total by counting the federal
and state taxes paid by a grocer
in Indianapolis who sold the
bread, the baker, the companies
making ingredients going into
the loaf and the railroads that
hauled the ingredients.
A partial breakdown showed
that the grocer paid four federal
taxes and the baker, a national
firm owning its own trucks, paid
eight federal taxes. The grocer
and baker also paid 15 state
taxes of one sort and another.
, A Kansas City flour mill
which supplied the baker paid
seven federal taxes and eight
Missouri state taxes. The rail
road that carried the flour to
Indianapolis paid five taxes to
Uncle Sam and an assortment of
taxes to the three states it passed
through.
Taxes also were paid by the
New Orleans sugar mill, the Chi
cago salt warehouse and malt
plant, the Cincinnati shortening
company and the various rail
roads carrying these ingredients.
"Assuming all these outfits
passed along part of their tax
burden in prices, there were at
least 151 taxes on this single
loaf of bread sold by the Indian
apolis grocer," the foundation
said.
Zoo Officials Ask '
Advice on Cranes
New Orleans (U.R) Zoo . of
ficials called for expert advice
today on how to tend the only
pair of whooping cranes in cap
tivity and their two precious
eggs.
Director George Douglass of
Audobon Zoo orderer a 24-hour
watch around the flood-lighted
wire enclosure that is the home
of Josephine and Crip to make
sure the eggs are hatched.
Douglass said a wildlife expert
will be brought in to supervise
the incubation, which is expect
ed to last about a month.
Last year the long-stemmed
birds hatched two eggs, but one
chick disappeared, presumably
the victim of a predatory bird,
and the other died within 47
days.
Story of the DoctorTWioEresciibed for Himself
1
O Once there was this smart doc
who bought a great big hearse of a
benzine buggy. It looked so good on
the salesroom floor.
But this over-chromed, outsized
jalopy needed a gas transfusion every
few miles. And it was so big and long
the doc never could find parking
space at the hospital.
"I'm suffering from car-itis," said
the doc So he went and looked at a
cute little foreign job, but it wouldn't
even begin to hold all of his family.
O Then he looked at Rambler-only
car with American "big car" roomi
ness and foreign car economy and
maneuverability. "I'm prescribing
Rambler for myself," said the doctor.
0 It didn't take him long to find out
that he could own two Ramblers
both a 6 and a new V-8 for no more
than it cost him to own his big, over
grown hulk of a car. So he bought 'em.
0 Now the doc has to fight with his
wife and the kids to even get to drive
'one car. He's at the point where he's
about to own three Ramblers. Try a
Rambler. You'll see!
