NUISANCE TAXES ARE
LIKELY BE CONTINUED
BUI to Be Ruahed Through Cuu-
Giw This Month. Na New
Levies Expected.
A definite decision against hny
present increase in tax rates was
disclosed by congressional revenue
raisers as the:* mapped a drive to
put a tax bill on the statute books
within thirty days.
They indicated, however, that the
forthcoming bill would make perma
nent instead of extending for one
year, the present “temporary nuis
ance taxes” which expire within the
month and which will produce up
ward of $400,000,000 in the financial
year ending June thirtieth.
One tax leader who discussed the
situation was Representative Samuel
B. Hill, of Washington, ranking
democrat on the house ways and
means committee.
Asserting that he was expressing
his own view, which others private
ly said reflected a general under
standing already reached by commit
teemen informally, Mr. Hill said:
BUI Will Be Rushed
“I don’t think we are going out
to look for any new sources of reve
nue. Nor do I think it wiU be neces
sary to make any changes in the
existing tax rates."
The projected bill must be rushed
because unless it is enacted by J'ine
30 half a dozen big money produc
ing taxes wil! expire.
Although leaders apparently in
tend to rush the new tax bill through
without varying existing rates, they
may be caused some embarrassment
by blocks seekings changes. Pressure
was being brought on house n
bers to try for reductions in
eliminations of the nuisance taxes.
These include the one-cent a gal
lon gasoline tax. which actuaries
figure will bring in around $185,-
000,000 for the fiscal year ending
June 30; the lubricating oil levy,
calculated to return $25,239,000; the
tax on automobiles and motor^’cles
which will bring in about $31,004,-
000.
Other things taxed and the reve
nue it is estimated they will pro
duce include: Electrical energy $32,-
886;000. telephone, telegraph and
cable messages $20,981,000, tires and
tubes $20,056,000. cosmetics $10,-
482,000.
Other levies in the “nuisance”
class are the 5 per cent levy on
corporation dividends, levies on
candy, chewing gum, theater tickets,
sdft drinks, refrigerators, radios,
matches, firearms and shells.

er; Land Wanted.
(Written tor: G. N. S.)
It is interesting to know* that
there are a great many people look
ing about with the intention of
purchasing some farming land. In
recent weeks I have had eight or ten
people whom 1 know to be interest
ed in buying large tracts of land get
in touch with me. In conversation,
they invariably stress the point that
the land must be suitable for the
propagation of game both large and
small.
They also stress the point of the
interest they have in slash pines—
that is. pines for turpentine purposes
—also in the use of pulp pine in the
manufacture of paper.
At this point, I w*ant to seriously
urr<5 the people (and especially
those in South Georgia) not to be
too hasty in selling or giving up
their country homes. Believe it cr
not, but it won't be many seasons
until the people who keep their
farm property will be very glad they
did.
I was talking only today with a
gentleman who is Superintendent of
a large estate, consisting approxi
mately of 26.500 acres. This estate
is owned by three parties and there
are living on it some one hundred
and thirty families, averaging five
people to the family, or approxi
mately six hundred and fifty peo
ple. These farmers are making a
good living, and there are no relie'
agencies in that certain section. I
learned that thii estate spends $19.-
500 each month, or over $225,000
yearly.
For what purpose are these large
sums of money being expended?
Solely for the purpose of propagat
ing game and a small amount being
expended for tho propagation of fish.
Could this be worthwhile? I would
answer in the affirmative. Some
people reading this may say it
doesn’t sound reasonable. I do not
wish to divulge the names, but will
prove every word I have said.

TIRES MAY LOOK ALIKE ON THE OUTSIDE
ON THE INSIDE THEY ARE DIFFERENT
H EAT ow ihe inside crafted by friction
Is the main cause of Mowowta. Firestone
Tires are different on tbs inside—they are
built with the patented extra process of
Gum-Dipping that soaks every cord and
insulates every strand with pure liquid
rubber, preventing internal friction and
heat. No other make of tire is Gum-Dipped.
When yot* realize that there were
882,000 automobile accidents in 1934,
Injnring934,000people and killing 36,000,
and that 43,000 of these accidents were
caused by blowouts, punctures and
skidding, yon will be asore interested in

(By G. N. S.)
On the same day that Congress
passed and the President signed the
substitute NRA bill extending its
greatly curtailed activities until April
1, 1936.
The new NRA, designed to meet
the objections of unconstitutionality
of the original Blue Eagle, is strip
per of compulsory codes, denied
jurisdiction over all intra-state com
merce, directed to enforce anti-trust
laws and give power solely to super
vise voluntary agreements by in
dustry, to maintain
of determining changes in conditions
brought about by outlawing cf the
original national industrial recovery
act
All (
i charges
awaiting trial c
of violation of the NRA
course, dropped when the supreme
court declared the act unconstitution
al, but it was not until last week that
all government action against Whit
ley was officially dismissed.
