THE NYSSA GATE CITY JOURNAL, Ye Snooper’s Column Things About Nyssa's Shops There comes to our desk each day that the Congress ist in session (lie Congressional Record, by court esy of Congressman Pierce. At first they didst seem to us dry tombs of little value to the average man and ubout as interesting reading as a discourse on Relativity by Einstein, but the more we read the more ab sorbed we become hi this drama that unfolds a new act at our nat ions capital each day. A drama more thrilling than any Diamond Dick yarn could have been to our thirteen year old brother in a day gone by. And by dally persual of these reports one comes at last to have a sixth sense of insight in what goes on behind the scenes. The fly floundering in the politi cal ointment of which we learn eventually over the radio and news lanes ist bound to show up in these pages first. And many a public accusation made against' a certain bill will be found to be not altogeth er Just nor accurate if the true bill ist read in full. The same holds true, oft times of comments prals ing und urging the passing of the bill. All this cnme to mind this day when in the mall there came a treatise on the Injustice of a bill nlmed to overcome the ill practices of Liberty Bond buying so prevelont in the last war. This treatise didst claim that the snid bill in question would require all persons having any property what so ever shall bear his prorated share in the buying of the bonds. To the extent that if he Is lacking cash, then the gov ernment wilt lend him the cash at six per cent, while the bonds wilt bear a meagre one per cent, and if he buys not or 1st unable to repay tended monies then wilt his prop erties and all that he possesses be confiscated by the government to clear the debt. All of which ist true—but this add:d that the rate of bond buying for each $1.000.00 is bue 009 per cent of thei" total prop erty value. So that if the person ist so fortunate ss to be included In that "must buy" br ckH they would ]■ ;y tail $9.00 on ■ f i t thousand it. liars. So at least in effect read the speech for the bill given by T nator Lee of Oklahoma In the Senate chambers. It doest seem to i ir way of thinking a most equlta- I !e scheme to mis- needed monies .'
