Today's Roundup
By MALCOLM EPLEV
IN the mans of material we are receiving on both
tides of the sales Ux question we find considerable
contradictory Information from people In sale tax
states as to whether the sues ux
has actually reduced property
taxes In those states. Relief of
. property taxation Is the Issue on
which people will make up their
minds about the sales tax. and
the leaders of both sides of the
developing campaign are making
play on this point.
We have noticed statements
from California and Washington
people to the effect that property
taxes which were reduced right
after passage of sales taxes In
those states years ago are now EPLEY
back somewhere near their pre-sales tax level. This
Is offered as evidence that the sales tax has not
effectively and continuously reduced property taxes.
But the latter conclusion does not necessarily fol
low. In fact, If property taxes are now no more
than their pre-sales tax level, it would seem to us
that the sales tax Is doing a job for the property
holders in those states.
As everybody knows, the cost of government along
with everything else has bounded upwards in recent
years. Taxation has gone up with It To determine
the real property tax relief effects of the sales tax
In sales tax states, the logical comparison is between
what property taxes are now and what they would
be WITHOUT the sales tax.
We haven't seen any figures from California or
Washington which would show what would happen
to real property taxes if the sales tax laws in those
states were repealed. Further, we are interested In
the fact that there has been no threatening effort
to repeal the sales taxes in the neighboring states.
Both Washington and California are Industrialized
beyond Oregon, hare bigger payrolls and equally
strong labor organizations. The same Is true of
Michigan. Illinois, Ohio, and a number of other
states which have adopted sales taxes as a broadening
feature of their tax bases.

for a Day MBS
which is that they are the consumers. With llio
iheer volume of their organised mall, and explosive
epithets from such nebulous unidentifiable characters
as "a labor housewife, they are trying to crowd me
into retracting my frequent economic analyses allow
ing the unions are working against the consumer.
Indeed, they are trying to convince me that the
unions themselves are aU labor simply because they
call themselves "laborej' .
There are 60.000.000 workers In tills country today.
The unions only claim to represent about 16.000,000.
Therefore they are not labor. They are not even a
majority ot labor. They are about one-fourth. They
are one-fourth which tries to monopolise the whole
economy ot the country by sheer superior weight of
political pressures, propaganda and Indeed any means
at their command eveu down to picketing the wed
ding ot a man and woman simply became tho
troom's father Is In politics and did not do what
they demanded.
Ont-Fourth Of Consumers
NOW there are 140,000,000 people in the Uulled
States and It the unions represent one-fourth
tit they have raised the same size families as others)
they are 35,000,000 people trying to run 140,000,000 by
means Including Intimidation.
Quite obviously then, they are not "the con
sumers," but one-fourth ot same. The next question
then Is do they represent the Interest of consumers?
Being one-fourth, do they speak for consumers? Do
they act In the interests ot consumers?
Only on Sundays, you might reasonably say. They
have a branch which they call the consumers division
and this emits statistics, and propaganda on prices
being too high, sometimes demanding restoration ot
OPA, and always attacking business and profits.
But you might call that a Sunday job compared
with their real work. When they get together to
negotiate a contract with management, the con
sumers division never sits in. Their leaders do not
demand things of management which will protect
consumers, but only things tor themselves. They
constantly each year ask more and more privileges,
special privileges Indeed which other people are not
allowed, all of which continually Increase the. cost
of living to the three-fourths. They demand "Justice"
for themselves, never for the other three-fourths.
Cool At Example
JOHN LEWIS did not demand justice for coal
consumers of the operators, but increased priv
ileges which will cost the U. S. Steel company
175.000,000 a year In steel and $40,000,000 a year in
coal, so you can imagine what the rest of the coal
consuming public will have to pay (no one has an
nounced any figures for them). Such procedure Is
customary In all union dealings with management.
I cannot recall a single Instance In which they acted
for consumers, although I can recall a lot of cases
in which they did considerable misleading talking
about holding prices down, and then as soon as
everyone forgot the talk, the prices went up. and
by that time they were ready to demand another
wage increase.
Their numerical position as one-fourth of the
consumers is not truly an accurate estimate then.
They do not represent the consumer at all in action,
only In talk, only on Sundays as If they were doing
a. Job on that day for which they did not get paid.
legation official while his captors
were transferring him from one Jail

American officials Identified the
American as Stephen Thuransky. 54,
formerly a farmer near Columbus,
Ohio, and a naturalized American.
They said his escape took place
last Saturday outside the Marko
jail when Thuransky made a break
for freedom. In the melee Thuran

down one of his three guards, while
his wife grabbed a second. The
third knocked Thuransky uncon
sclous and he fell Into the rear seat
of an American legation car parked
In iront of the Jan.
A U. S. official who had been
waiting to see the prisoner pushed
Mrs. Thuransky into the car be
hind her husband and drove away.
Later the official said the three
Hungarian policemen "Just stood
there and stared" when he made
off with their prisoner.

The above picture was accorded
the top spot as an Illustration of
Just how far some people will go
for a gag. In the 18th century suit
is John Griggs, town crier on the
"America's Town Meeting" and his
little pantomime is supposed to tell
you he's stowing away the call-to-meeting
bell in preparation for the
summer season Jaunt the program
is now taking around the country.
.
Some few weeks ago I mentioned
a program a whodonit at that, that
featured a very sad man named Pat
Novak. This Novak doesn't see hu
mor in anything. But that is not
the point I want to make. I stated
that Novak is always getting bopped
on his cranium. Certain citizens
took issue with me on this. Ad
mittedly I haven't heard every No
vak program since then but I have
bent an ear to two or three and
so far on every one of them Pat
has been put to sleep with a rap
on his conk. Incidentally, the latest
witticism of this gentleman, who is
for hire, goes something like this,
"I can count to ten if I haven't got
mittens on."
...
Tills week's "Town Meeting" pro
gram features a question described
as one of the most timely and topi
cal of the day. Fortunately, this
claim was protected by the state
ment it Is only "one of the most . . ."
There are so many timely and
topical problems today it would be
difficult to make a choice, even if
you -wanted to. At any rate the
question Is "Is the Two Party Sys
tem Failing In America."
The speakers will be James Roose
velt, son of the late president; Bart
ley Crum, San Francisco attorney:
George E. Outland, author; and
Goodwin J. Knight, lieutenant gov
ernor of California. As vigorous par
ticipants, in the two party system, It
is doubtfu) if any of these distin
guished gentlemen are qualified to
render an unbiased opinion on this
matter. However, as usual, I will be
listening. You can listen too If you

The World
Toddy
By DKW1TT MACKENZIE
AP Foreign Affairs Analyst
Winston Churchill, whoso host of
admirers regard him as the person
ification of John Bull at the best,
declares that the British people will
come through the ecouoiulo crisis
they nW luce, no matter what the
difficulties may be.
That prediction isn't likely to be
taken lightly by a world which re
members another prophesy of the
famous war-tliu prime minister,
nuule In the dark days Just after
Duukerque:
"Wo shall defend our island
whntever the cost limy be. We shall
fight on the beaches, wo shall fitiht
on the lauding ground, we shall light
In the fields and In the streets, we
shall fight In the hills; we shall
never surrender."
Sturdy Character
Churchill was right, far his fore
cast was based on his sure know
ledge of the sturdy character of hit
people. But that wasn't by uuy
mentis the only occasion, even In our
time, that this trait hiul been ex
hibited. Those of us who were with
Field Marshall Halg In France when
the Germans launched their all-bul-successful
offensive In April, 1U1B,
are not likely soon to forget his
memorable "backs to the wall" order
of the day, culling for a "fight to
the end," which resulted In turning
the tide of war.
Can Churchill duplicate as a
prophet now? Many close obscrv-
i era. Including your columnist, be
j llcve that Britain will come through.
That belief is based partly on past
performance on sturdlnesa of char
acter In adversity. It Is based part
ly on the belief that the ecouoiulo
resources of Britain and her colo
nial possessions are sufficient to
maintain economic well being, pro
vided she can stave off dl.aster dur
ing the present emergency.
However, we should beware of
wishful thinking. Tim crisis has
reached a stage where the oxygen
tent will have to be brought Into
use unless Die progress of the
disease Is halted. The political cor
respondent of the Loudon Daily
Telegraph, writing yesterday of the
report which the prime minister Is
expected to make In the house of
commons tomorrow, stated grimly
that It Is the gravest statement to
be made to parliament since the
oarkest days of the war.
(Ireater Hardships
The British people are prepared
for even greater hardships than
they have had to endure during and
since the war. Thus far they have
accepted that tough prospect with
out a whimper. However, sturdlnesa
I of character alone Isn't likely to
! turn the trick. The British govern
ment Is looking to America for
i further aid, and In this it has the
backing of the powerful conserva
tive party 'leaded by Churchill.
As the signs now read, Britain's
recovery mny depend very largely
on easements and new credits. And
If England gets these, how long will
It take her to reach an advanced
stage of convalescence?
Of course nobody cuu pin Unit
down at this stage. At the time that
Britain secured her loan from Wash
ington a year ago, her expert fig
ured that the crisis would be over
come In about three years and that
in a couple of years more she could

Meyer Said
Child's Father
NEW YORK. Aug. 5 M1-Hcclal
Sessions Justice Frederick L. Hack
enburg has slgnrd a warrant lor the
arrest of John W. Meyer, publlclut
fur movie and aviation magnate
Howard Hughes, on the complaint
of a night club cigarette girl who
says Meyer Is the father of her
slx-niouth-old son.
In Washington, Meyer, who has
been testifying before the senate
committee Investigating Hughes'
aircraft contracts, termed the girl's
complaint "ridiculous" and said he
never had been out with her.
The girl, Patricia Miles, former
model who has been a clgaretle
girl at some of the most exclusive
clubs on the fashionable East side,
said In her cnmplulut that the chill
was born February J, 1047.
Miss Miles' attorney, Klvlu I. Un
terman, said his client Is seeking
support for the child "commen
surate to Meyer's Income, which we
believe to be between 850.000 a'nri
8100.000 a year."
Fewer Divorces
In Local Court
A total ot 34 marriage licenses were
sold over I he counter at the county
clerk's office during July, about
average In that department, but
fewer divorces are being handed out
In circuit court each month.
There were only 25 decrees given
out In July. 18 to women and seven
to men.
Thero were olso 34 complaints lor
divorce and one lor annulment (lied
during July. Cruel and Inhuman
