THE LEADER-TRIBUNE, FORT VALLEY, GA.. THURSDAY APRIL 10. 1941
untimely speculations and unjustifi¬
able inferences.
Imminence Exaggerated
“The first thing I have to say about
taxes is that the imminence of a bill
is exaggerated,” said the Georgian.
u I am not meaning to imply that there
will be no revenue legislation at this
session of Congress, or that its con¬
sideration will be unduly and unneces¬
sarily delayed. I am seeking to dis
count and discredit unfounded reports
that have excited the public.
«y,, Si there will be revenue legisla
before adjournment. That should
be obvious to everyone. What its aim
in dollars will be is yet to be de¬
termined. The decision will be influ¬
by many considerations.
"Although collections under the
present act will exceed estimates by
billion dollars, the new revenue
act will raise, in my opinion, a billion
and a half, maybe two billion dollars
more than current collections.”
No Meat Ax Likely
Impressed apparently with the stag¬
gering figures, Senator George re¬
marked with emphasis:
“The revenue bill—and I hope you
get this—isn’t going to introduce the
use of a meat ax, or a mallet-and
chisel, in getting the funds required
the government. The measure will
be framed, insofar as possible, along
and scientific lines, in the
hope of minimizing injustices and pre
serving the commercial, industrial and
financial enterprises and initiative of
the nation.
“I believe legislation can, and will
j, c drafted that won’t scrape the hot
tom 0 f the barrel, yet substantially
increase the revenue of the govern
ment I believe it can, and will, be
( ] one without shattering the business
structure of the country, yet I am
mindful that current obligations are
burdensome and heavy,
a It is premature to speculate about
rates, brackets, exemptions, surcharg
special assessments. They involve .
vs,
problems that must await decisions
a j )0U t fundamentals of the legisla
tion. ,,
Million-Dollar incomes
It is apparent that under the next
revenue bi ]j net j ncomes of a million
dollars a year will be few and far be
tw<*€»n. This thought inspired a ques
(j 0I1 0 f Senator George as to the nura
her of persons who today have net in
comes of a million dollars.
“I cannot answer that question,” he
said. “I have no definite information [
on the subject, but I suspect strongly
that net individual incomes are much
rarer than supposed. Many d per¬
son credited with an income of a
million-a-year may in fact receive
that much money in salaries and divi ■
dends, but when he gets through pay
ing his taxes is likely to have under
$ 200 , 000 .
“The rates in the higher brackets
increase by leaps and bounds, as is
well known, and a person to have a
million net a year actually would
have to enjoy an income of several
million dollars a year.”
Asa matter of fact, only 42 per
sons paid tax on million-dollar
comes last year, but this doesn’t mean
that any one of them had a net in
dividual income of $1,000,000. The
chances are that the average “net”
was nearer $200,000.
American Indians never harmed a
feeble minded person. They believed
them to he possessed of the great
spirit, and Treated them as small
children, with kindness and care.

Aviation mechanics is one of the many fields of work experience
for youths at the Chapman Springs resident center of the National
Youth Administration, Emphasis is placed on giving boys practical
experience to qualify them for employment in fields which are ex¬
panding under the national defense program. Many youths like those
shown working on this government plane have secured jobs with
commercial airlines as a result of their work experience in this field.
