The Georgia State of Commerce has endorsed principal of the withholding of state income taxes as a revenue collection device in lieu of addi¬ tional tax measures. How about withholding a little of the bureaucratic, red- tape entwined procedures this will further burden the small businessman with. Or better yet, let the small businessman and the hard-hit consumer (who will pay in the end for this added erpense of the businessman) examine the stand by the Capitol crowd and withhold a few votes. What happened to the big push on economy in govern¬ ment? Promises still seem to ring clear in the ears of many Georgians that by practicing economy in state government— tits finances would stabalize! ... our Soon your friends and neigh bors will be calling on you to contribute to the Scouting pro¬ gram. We believe, that if you have any direct connection with Scouting, you’ll give without question, for you know the value of such a program. But for others, who have no direct connection, we’d like to point up that Scouting is ac¬ knowledged as the backbone of leadership training. It teaches a boy to be self-reliant and it teaches him by doing. It's true, Scouts spend a lot Security... on the installment plan! It’s so easy to accumlate for the future, when you save regularly. Just a small amount deposi¬ ted each week or each month—like you pay off an installment debt, will build up a nestegg sur¬ prisingly soon. .

SEE US FOR YOUR PRINTING NEEDS THE DADE COUNTY TIMES, TRENTON, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, OCTOBER I, 1959 Does this latest move mean that economy fad is fading, that it has been tried and found wanting, that it has failed? We believe that if the tax is needed, it ought to be support¬ ed. But we also believe there is a better way of collecting it than through a payroll with¬ holding system. Most paychecks already get a super-duper! slenderzing treatment and a lot of them won’t stand mueh more We support a system much like the small businessmen of this county practice. To get business they give value. We believe that if the state government gives us honest value in services and adminis- tration, we'll pay for it without a hitch—but we prefer to make the payment, not have it taken in advance. of time building campfires, roasting weiners, swimming and in general having a time of their lives. But the undercurrent is strong. Character building is interwoven so that it becomes aj part of the boy, without his really knowing it. Any boy who has been in Scouting, is a better man for it. Heavy on good citizenship and moral codes—the Scouting pro¬ gram has built-in delinqency deterents. It deserve your support. For a better Dade County tomorrow, give a bigger amount today.
