Poor Man's Philosopher On
Will Lady Godiva Ride Again!
By HAL BOYLE )
NEW YORK — (AP) — Will a'
new group of Lady Godivas arise
to rescue the American people
from high taxes? |
This suggestion for cutting the
rising price of government was
made recently by Frank Tripp,
sage of the Elmira (N. Y.) Star-
Gazette.
He recalled the legendary ride
of the original Lady Godiva near
ly 900 years ago. As I get it, this
beauteous Saxon dame told her
husband, the Lord of Coventry: !
“My Lord, why have you low
ered such a heavy tax boom on
our pleasant peasants?” |
“Because it serfs them right,”}
punned her master. “Get, it, Mi- |
lady? It serfs them right.” |
“Well, I don’t like your manor
at all,” said the lady. “When are
you going to give these poor peo
ple a break?” 5
Cenditions |
“I'll cut their taxes the day you
ride bareback threcugh the town,”
scoffed old man Coventry. “Haw, |
haw, haw!” |
Well, he knew that Lady Godi
va was one of the poorest riders
in the whole countryside. She
regularly fell off her mount at
least twice during every fox
hunt. And all her husband
meant by saying what he did was
that she wouldn’t dare try to ride
a horse without a saddle,
But like any wife in any age,
Lady Godiva took what her hus
band said literally. She thought
he meant she wouldn't dare ride
with her own back bare through
the streets. No lady cculd resist
a challenge like that.
So she put out an order for the
peons to stay indoors. Then she
saddled up a white horse, took off
her robes and rode through co
ventry adrned with nothing but
her long blonde hair. One tailor,
“peeping Tom,” looked out to see
what all the hoofbeats were about.
He was struck blind, probably by
the bright sunshine.
On the way home Lady Godiva
met her astounded hushand, who
demanded:
“Egad, and what the hell are
wyou doing?”
“Cutting taxes,” she said inno
cently. “And if you don’t lower
the rate, I'm going for another
ride tomorrow. I've never had so
much fun.”
She went to bed with a bad
case of sunburn, and the next day

the peasants got the biggest tax
rebate in history. Ever since then
peasants figure it will happen |
again. And what about the he- |
roine? Whenever she asked for a |
new dress, old man Coventry|
would say:
Bare Coffers
“Sorry, Milady, but our coffers
are as bare as—as bare as you
know what.”
Today the House of Representa
tives has passed a new $7,200,000,- |
000 tax bill, the biggest ever. |
Frank Tripp’s idea is that 49 mod- i
ern Godivas might help save the |
day-—one to ride through Wash-i
ington, D. C., and each of the 48
state ‘capitals. ‘
It would probably be easy |
enough to find the gal volunteers,
but where would you find the 49
snowwhite horses? And people
nowadays expect more. They
wouldn’t even turn out for the pa- |
rade unless Lady Godiva played a
guitar, or carried a rifle and shot
down eggs thrown into the air
and flying streamegs saying,
“Bring down the high cost of liv
ing.”
Nope, congressmen don’t scare
as easy as the old Lord of Coven
try. They know what the average
husband would say if his wife
trotted bare down the stairs
bound for a horseback ride to
lower taxes.
“Well, for heaven’s sake,” he’d
say, “go back upstairs and put on
your hat. I don’t want you to go
out looking like a bum.”
Then he'd go back to reading
his newspaper.
GETS AWAY TO WAKE
L.OS ANGELES —(AP)— If you
long to “get away from it all,”
lend an ear to Hank Lucchesi, 32,
a city-bred mechanic who thinks
he has found the ideal place. He
says it's Wake Island, the historic
dot in the mid-Pacific where ma
rines made a gallant stand in
World War II and more recently
the site of a conference between
President Truman and Gen. Mac-
Arthur.
Lucchesi recently returned from
'nine months on the island — he
calls it “the rock”—where he
- worked for an airline.
“There’s plenty to do,” he says.
“The sport fishing from motor
launches is great. It’s one of the
healthiest spots in the Pacific, If
they ever lick the common cold
it’ll be the healthiest place on the
globe.”

Iron Curtain, Clay said. 4
In its invitation to the local
Chamber of Commerce asking this
community’s participation, the
Greenwood group suggested that a
local committee be formed to so
licit from local residents any and
all ideas that could convey to the
captive peoples the enlightenment
of the free world.
“America has an arsenal of wea
pens,” said the Greenwood com
mittee, “It alse has an arsenal of
ideas. Now, through the Crusade
for Freedom, every American can
contribute to that arsenal by ex
pressing his own thoughts and
ideas—with the knowledge that, if
accepted, they will actually reach
the prisoner peoples behind the
Curtain.”

All suggestions, the Chamber
was told, will supplenrent the eur=

Freedom, headed by General Clay,
in which it is anticipated 25,000,~
000 Americans will enroll this
September.
At that time, voluntary contri
butions of $3,500,000 will be sought
to expand the network of freedom
stations now operated by Radio
Free Europe abroad. These inde
pendent transmitters, located in
Western Germany, are made pos
sible and controlled by individual
American citizens. Their sole pur
pose is to fight communism with
