Today's Roundup
By MALCOLM EPLEV
THE 1 per cent state withholding tax. which U
now showing up on paychecks around here, is
not an additional tax.
Money withheld under this law will apply as an
offset on your state Income tax
payments. It Is exactly the prin
ciple of what has been adopted
by the federal government; the
effect Is to reduce the amount
taxpayers will have to dig up at
one time.
The principal purpose on the
part of the legislature in adopting
the 1 per cent withholding tax
was to prevent tax evasion. A
great many people, especially
transient workers, are believed to
have escaped the state income tax.
In one way or another. It Is esti
mated that the withholding tax
will bring In more than a million dollars in new tax
money from sources where there would be tax evasion
without the withholding tax.
But those who regularly pay state Income tax are
not hurt. Their total taxation is Just the same. Per
haps they will get some satisfaction out of:
1. Having the tax taken in small installments, thus
reducing the effect of the blow at regular taxpaying
time;
2. The knowledge that others, who might otherwise
escape the taxes they ore paying, will now be taxed.
We dont claim to know everything about the with
holding tax law. But the main point that has brought
up many questions from taxpayers Is whether it means
an Increase In the tax. The answer to that Is "no."
griefs From The Pocket File
BILL JENKINS, who sits on the news desk here,
wants me to mention In this department that
Willamette valley flood pictures were lacking in our
paper this week because the flood evidently disrupted
communications so that the pictures didn't get to us
. . . President Mosely ot the University of Nevada,
slated as the speaker at the Junior chamber of com
merce Pounders' Day banquet here Tuesday night. Is
regarded as one of the outstanding public speakers In
the West . . Charley Stark, Klamath chamber
manager who has heard him many times, rates Mosely
as the best public speaker he has ever heard . . .
Nevada collected $673,661 In fees on gambling for the
last six months of 1947 . . . The thing that surprises
us about that figure Is that It is that small ... A lot
of things are coming up this week In. the way of
civic gatherings by organizations which have been
holding things off since the holidays . . . Everybody
seems to get the same idea at once around here . . .
This Isn't the right time for talk about forest fires,
but Larry Mays, the regional fire suppression officer
for the US forest service, was In town a day or two
and reported that 1947 was a banner year In his busi
ness . . . Mays is a former Klamathite who had charge
at one time of the Russian dandelion rubber production
project that was started here early in the war, but
later abandoned.

THE president's speech on taxes Is an amazing con

all his fault. Perhaps he has a conglomeration of
Inconsistent advisers. Also he faces an election year

the treasury does. Or is it true that these proposals
came from his corps of corporals In the White House
and not from the treasury? At any rate, the president
has not done any clear thinking on the subject. He
himself said:
"One of the most powerful anti-lnflatlonary factors
in our economy today Is the e tcess of government
revenues over expenditures."
The simplest solution Is to cut down government
revenues. Isn't it? Perhaps, It would be wiser to cut
government expenditures as well. It would be best
of all, to let the citizen keep a large share of his
earnings so that he doe not become a cog In an
economic machine, to repeat Mr. Truman's words.

during which his advisers must be Janus-headed,
watching Uie republicans on the right and Wallace
on the left. It Is tough going. For Instance, he saldi
"We do not believe that men exist merely to
strengthen the stale or to be cogs in an economic
machine. We do believe Uiat governments are created
to serve the people and that economic systems exist
to minister to their wants , . ,'
That is satisfactory statement of our form of
government and ot the capitalistic system In eco
nomics. But if capitalism Is to survive, it is necessary
that the Individual must keep enough of his earnings
to provide a rising standard of living for his family and
to be able to accumulate a surplus over expenditures
to Invest In the Industry ot the country. In a word,
the essence of capitalism requires that the Individual
not only earn enough to keep privately-owned busi
nesses going by his purchases but that he save enough
to Invest In the capital structure.
How Woi It Reached?
THAT being so, why does Mr. Truman Insist tint
the wartime income tax on the individual remain
in force except for a sop of $40 for the payer and
each of his dependents, an arbitrary amount to be
offset by rising prices Inevitable In his proposal to
Increase corporate taxes? And why $40? How was that
figure reached, by what mathematical or psychological
process? Why Is $40 better than $50 or $60 or $35?
Mr. Truman proposes:
". . . At least $50,000,000,000 should be Invested by
Industry to Improve and expand our productive facil
ities over the next few years . . ."
How can the individual find the capital to Invest
In expanding Industry It he cannot save? How can
corporations Invest In expanding Industries If they
are to be taxed an Increased amount because they
earned $4,500,000,000 more in profits In 1947 than they
did In 1946? Where Is the money to come from In
competition with the government's compulsory levy
of taxes and appeal to purchase voluntary bonds? Mr.
Truman says:
"Because of this extraordinary high level of profits,
corporations can well afford to carry a larger share
of the tax load at this time . . ."
But a tax is a cost of operations. It Is usually added
to price as any other cost Is. In a word, the con
sumer pays this increase. Worse still.' the small enter
prise, which cannot engage In major economies and
therefore has to provide some other reason for at
tracting customers, will be driven out of business.
In fact, under his proposal, it will be preferable
for the small business man to sell his business to a
larger enterprise and to take a capital gain which
Involves a lower tax than the corporate Income tax.
That practice has already resulted in unwise mergers
of businesses that Is. unwise from a national stand
point no matter how gainful to the Individual.

War Monger Term
PORTLAND, Jan. 10 W) Ray H.
Brannaman, national commander
of the Veterans of Foreign Wars,
objects to the term "war-monger."
His campaign for universal train

name-calling, he said here.
"Our first objective of the VFW
Is peace, and our top program Is
national security, because we can't

Objection to universal military

To get the full significance ot

worried over the Oreek situation.
It was believed that Greece's com

to accord official recognition to the
communist "government" recently

Is that it might provide an oppor

would sandwich the Turks between

a recent speech by Turkisn Foreign

saying that the constitution ol

this as meaning that Turkey be

way ot avoiding catastrophe is lo

Whether that represents Turkey's
