Of course it is V-a well knowai fact that American people with their Mgh, wide and free spirit do not like to obey Jaws. Nevertheless they must be Qbeyed in order to insure safety of Ufe and limb as the saying goes. ^f3i© auto- inobile -use tax is one of., the- -most iapq^illar taxes that has been placed upon the American ,peaple : sioqe the time King George HI, was taxijig aroiind in Bos- ton. Half, or a large percentage of the people do not have use stamps on their cars even today. That in itself is an example of its unpopuularity. However, like all laws, it should be. enforced until repealed. Prohibition was another unenforceable law. The thing to do, it seems, is to pay the tax and start work- ing to have it repealed. Also the thing to do with traffic law violators is very obvious. If the traffic LaWs are enforced there will be fewer violators and Less accidents^ 4 ^*7 % .— fr *\**»>*« VOLUM£ 34 \ir*>'^f^mf*? -TtTO^py- -1 ' t ' * V > * ?•-' -\'-A\% L6#Vrt^^«. Y., THURSDAY, JULY 29, 194* THE JOB AHEAD The Treasury has raised its sights considerably on war bonds for the rest of the year. During the first half of this year it sold approximately seven bil- lion dollars in war bonds to individuals. During the second half it proposes to sell eighteen billion dollars ^-or more than twice as much. To some people the task seems impossible. They say the Treasury is shooting for the moon. Let's see. There is no mystery as to the source from which these funds might be obtained. Production in gen- eral—and war production in partieular^is creating the very funds it wants to tap; War production is \sot only turning out planes, tanks and-ships; it is also generating incomes eqiial in amount to that pro- duction. What people.receive in, the-way of income is' simply, the equivalent of what they produce in the. way of goods and services. If the government, there- fore, is spending mjore than it is receiving in taxes, and is thus faced with- a deficit, the people of the country are. receiving more than they are spending, and thus possess a surplus'. It is this surplus (6r sav- ings) tliat the. govern^ It must.be borne in nnnd that this s increase in surplus (or savings)' represents a total iBtat wjil be distributed among individuals in varying- amounts. Some-—those living on, fixed incomes, pensions,, an- nuities and so on-^-may find 1 it impossible to increase their savings appreciably. Others, howeyer^^th_ THIRD WAR LOAN PLANS TALKED IN SYRACUSE Regional and county plans for conducting the forthcoming Third War Loan-;- Drive,' \scheduled to take place September 9 \to 30, -will be outlined and -discussed by coun- ty chairmen and other officials: of the War Finance committee; tJ.

'.'.••\\• ' ; - The fundamental task of. war finance is to trans- fer this excess from private, to public use 5 to draw back into' the Treasury an amount equal to what the government is spending. This can best be done by increasing taxes and by increasing the sale, of war bonds.. Unless these measures are employed, either alone or in eomibiiiation,\excesS funds now accumulat- ing will lead inexorably to-an inflationary price rise, for the.supply,of .goods, and services is severely lim- ited, and cannot be increased. ,ur task is to make our production and financial gears mesh. Only by doihg so can we remove infla- tionary pressure at its source and preserve a reason- able amount of economic stability. War is the prin- cipal activity in the present economic life of the na- tion. It must be our 30b from now On to make financ- ing the war a firstJihe activity for the individuals of the nation. Over one hundred and fifteen meiij- women and 6hildf en gathered at the form of Norbert iSteiner on the Beaver Falls-New Breinen road Monday evening for a b/uekfafce demonstration.

In: this way a wagon load off hay was put into the barn every twenty mjutes. It was pointed out that instead tif using a loader and two men all that was necessary, was a buck- fake, a doodlebug and --one man.
