YOUR TAX BILL
How much money in taxes will
average man pay between now
age 61. >5?
Frank R. Ford has figured out the
answer, in an article which appeared
originally in the New York World
Telegram and The Sun and has been
condensed in Reader’s Digest.
The average man is 29 years old
makes a little under $100 a week,
and has a wife, two children, a low
priced car and a mortgaged home.
In the next 36 years, says Mr.
Ford, he can expect to pay $47,221
in taxes. That amounts to $25.23 a
week—or more than 25 per cent of
his income.
Federal income taxes are the big¬
gest single item. Even so, they come
to but 44 per cent of the total. The
balance consists of social security
taxes, real estate taxes, personal
property taxes, taxes on gasoline and
tires, sales taxes, state income taxes,
and so on.
To cap the climax, Mr. Ford em¬
phasizes that the figures are take conser¬ into
vative — for they don't
consideration future tax increases.
And the way things are going, in¬
creases seem as certain as tomorrow
morning. the
What it amounts to is that
average man puts in a quarter of his
working time in behalf of the govern¬
ment. Then, what money he has left
has been ravaged by inflation.

IMPORTANCE OF ADVERTISING
TO FREE PRESS, FREE WORLD
Frank H. Bartholomew, President
of UPI, in a Los Angeles speech re¬
cently gave his views on how adver¬
tising helps maintain a free press in
the United States and the free world.
“Advertising can affect a national de¬
cision concerning the welfare and even
the survival of the country," he de¬
clared. “Newspapers must have rev¬
enue to exist,” he said, and there are
very few instances in the world where
circulation revenues are sufficient for
this purpose.
“I don’t have any statistics at my
vertising fingertips, but I dare say that if ad¬
were withdrawn from the
American newspaper today, the aver¬
age cost per copy would probably ex¬
ceed 35c,” said Mr. Bartholomew. “If
that burden were shifted over to the
reader, I would estimate—again with¬
out ship supporting statistics—that reader
would decline by about 75%. If
this is true, and I think it is, then the
fully-informed people of the United
States would represent only about a
quarter of the population and their
conclusions could be outweighed by
the uninformed conclusions of the ma¬
jority. Since the reader cannot carry
the burden himself, under our scheme
of things it has been accepted by the
advertiser. That is, here in America
and generally throughout the Western
World.”
Doing business without adver¬
tising in The Coutier is like wink¬
ing at a girl in the dark. You
know what you are doing hut no
one else does.

“SLEEP ON IT”
Werner Heisenberg, the famous
German scientist who may succeed in
the cosmic quest that eluded Einstein,
recently' had this to say. “Sometimes
in the evenings I get stuck and an¬
noyed and give up. Next morning the
solutions come through just as if I’d
been thinking about it all night. You
know the old saying—'Let's sleep on
it.’ How right it is. Those old say¬
ings are the concentrated experience
of thousands of years.” So—if you
have problems, concentrate long and
hard before retiring, then ‘sleep
on it.' „ _
