Chase Willing
Commissioner
William F. B. Chase, former
county commissioner, said Mon
day he Is "willing to be" an in
dependent candidate for county
commissioner at the fall elec
tion.
Chase made the following
statement to the press:
"In regard to the office of
county commissioner I wish to
advise, that while the law does
not permit the filing of an in
dependent nomination within
more than 100 days, yet it does
not prohibit the announcement
of any independent aspirant for
such.
"In justice to my friends who
wish that I should be such can
didate and as information for
the public who might be asked
to sign any petition for my
nomination, I wish to say that
I am willing to be such inde
pendent candidate, that I have
given the matter careful con
sideration and if my friends
will see that I have the required
number of signers, which shall
be not less than 781 in the
county, that I will accept such
independent nomination when
properly filed with the county
clerk.
"My reasons for this move are
as follows: We are engaged in
a great struggle for the preser
vation of free government; we
cannot afford any dissipation of
our forces for liberty, either
in material power or man pow
er. Everyone should take his
place and do his best for the
good of all. I am an old man,
but I am not down and out. I
still wish to be of service to my
hometown, my country, my

WASHINGTON, July 20 VP)
A $6,143,900,000 wartime reve
nue bill was passed by the house
and sent to the senate today af
ter a last-minute floor fight
which resulted in levying a 90
per cent excess profits tax and
a combined normal and surtax
of 45 per cent on corporations.
The ways and means commit
tee sought to have the excess
profits tax raised to 90 per cent
and the normal and surtax re
duced to 40 per cent.
On the excess profits tax in
crease, the. committee was sus
tained on a voice vote.
But on the surtax revisions
the house decided, by a teller
vote of 180 to 160, to retain the
provision of 45 per cent.
Chairman Doughton (D-N C)
of the committee urged the re
vised corporate rates in the in
terest of the small corporations
which were not benefitting from
the war program. But Rep. Mc
Lean (R- N. J.) said the changes
would "help those corporations
which are waxing fat by this
war effort." '
The legislation would raise
about $2,400,000,000 in new
taxes from corporations and al
most $3,000,000,000 from in
dividuals, primarily through
steeply graduated individual
surtax rates and reduced per
sonal exemptions.

No one, of course, wants the

obviously be giving away Infor

But there can bo no good reason
why the American peoplo have
