THE PERQUIMANS WEEKLY, HERTFORD, N. &, FRIDAY, MARCH 8, 1960 ' 1 ' PAGE THRE3 mm HINOTON SHOULD TAX UNRELATED BUSINESSES ,: Congress has been asked by the Ad nmistrtia to reore labor unions, business leagues and social clubs, as well as charitable: and educational or ganisations,- to pay taxes on income from-the operation of unrelated busi nesses. .i;.. ;V - As explained to the House Ways and Means Committee, the "traditional sources' of income of the affected organizations, consisting of interest, , dividends, rents, royalties and capital - gains, would remain tax exempt. " Tor some strange reason, the Treas- : ury experts did not include religious bodies in its recommendations. The President, in a special tax message, included only educational and chari table organizations, but Secretary of the Treasury John W. Snyder, under committee questioning, said that "the same thing would apply" to religious organizations. We do not see why any religious j organization should be exempt from paying taxes on the operation of any "unrelated" business. Whatever is i usual, necessary or advisable for a re- fiRras organization to operate, .as a , - part of its religious work, should be exempt However, if a church, or other religious organization, goes into I an unrelated business, it should be re quired to pay taxes just like anybody else.' ' U. S. MUST AID WORLD ECONOMY The annual report of the European Marshall Plan countries, recently is sued in Paris, points out that West ern Europe's production and foreign trade Jiave rapidly regained approxi mately their pre-war volumes and that tiie dollar-deficit in its balance of payments has been about cut in half in two years. , Th report points out that the prob lem of European recovery is not one that can be solved by the Western na tions alone, but that a joint effort by Europe and the United States, in their mutual interest, is necessary because neither area can thrive unless the oth. er likewise thrives. The Marshall Plan has succeeded in restoring economic activity in the area but living standards are still estimat ed at ten per cent below pre-war lev els, S6me headway has been made in connection with world trade, but no I , cure is found for the dollar shortage, KiL-ilD-uly j-v ByJr. SephU -RTr.n-ifN a v" .: - person doubt, the danger that the na tions, in their race for, arms suprem acy, are setting the stage for another great conflict - AU of us realize the general good that will come to the na tions if they can, with confidence in each other, limit their preparations for war. :'....".:. -:. :r.r-u .. . l The issue goes much deeper than a superficial desire for peace. The prep arations of the United States for war continue despite this country's well publicized desire to Hmit armaments and to outlaw the atomic and hydro gen bombs. It goes on largely because the Soviet Union has, up to this time, steadfastly rejected every provision for international inspection which is necessary to guarantee that al nations carry out their disarmament agree ments. We have no way of knowing wheth er the Russian Government suspects the motives of the United States, but it is certainly a fact that in this country, both the Government and the people are apprehensive of possible Russian aggression. With full know ledge that the Communists-do not be lieve in democracy, as we understand the term, or in the freedoms that we think are necessary to individual hap piness, there is a firm determination not to permit the Russians to have sufficient power to conquer the world and to compel all peoples to accept the tenets of Communism. It is hard to see how the United States can do anything more. Per haps, an invitation to an internat ional conference on disarmament would do no harm. Certainly, it would give the Soviet leaders another opportunity to show their good faith and peaceful intentions, but it is diffi cult to believe that any change has occurred in the Communist attitude. Consequently!, some word from the Russians, which could be conveyed secretly through diplomatic channels, is important if the international con ference is to have an opportunity to succeed in ts purpose. It is beginning to appear that some of the officials of the United States are becoming a bit nervous as they contemplate the possibility of an arm ed clash with Russia. Mr. Tydings speaks of the "world's nightmare of fear" and Mr. McMahon urges agree ment at "almost any cost." It seems strange that no similar apprehension is apparent in any of the declarations that come from Soviet officials. Even .;:Mv' Do Not Neglect Cold . . Colds seem to be almost ubiquitous, especially at this time of the year. They are most prevalent in winter and spring. - K.y. A neglected cold often leads to seri ous complications which may result in tuberculosis, : pneumonia, Mdney di sease, heart trouble, inxlammed ton sils, infected sinuses and other ail ments anyone of which might end fa tally. To most people the common cold is only a minor disorder that is of ten regarded lightlyl and left to cure itself. Yet it is one of the most dan gerous and baffling problems that confronts scientific medicine today. We know that colds are contagious, and that they often grow to epidemic proportions. Children are particularly suscepti ble to colds, as they lack the resist ance of older people. The running ears, mastoid complications and oth' er serious chronic diseases which af flict children frequently have their inception in colds. Taking colds is an evidence of low ered vitality. The chronically tired person whose diet is inadequate who goes on insufficient sleep and is ir regular in his habits is an inviting host to cold germs. Consequently he catches cold easily and finds it diffi cult to throw off. Since we have no vaccine upon Good Position Said one Englishman to another, "If you looked at a postage stamp, how could tell that we will never lose a war?" "I dorit know."

The report, consisting of some 100, 000 words, outlined the need to cor rect the distorted trade picture and create a pattern of world commerce that can endure. This, it admits, cannot be done by Western. Europe alone , but must be done through its trade with the rest of the world. ' A cautiously optimistic forecast is made that the final two ears of the Marshall Plan, if there Is no depression in the United States and continued effort on the part of 2uro.pe.to attain financial independ ence, intimates that the dollar prob lem might be brought frto manage able proportions. A The efforts of the United States to assist Western Europe to recover from the devastating consequences of t' Vecent war have been based upon the! belief that unless this could be one, the conventional economy of pre-war days would be irrevocably V atroyed. At some sacrifice, this na liort has liberally expended its money to render unparalleled assistance, .i Nevertheless, even .after the" Mar shall Plan ends, it will be necessary for; us to willingly accept a larger volume of goods from the Western countries of Europe if we expect world commerce developed in line with American ideals along economic lines. If; we fail to make a major contribution to the solution of this problem, based upon the mutual ad vantage to be secured ' through the swapping-of goods and services, the world will very likely be forced Into a system of regulated and restricted international commerce. This will tend to retard the economic well-being of aU.nations. '' " NO PEACE BY CONFERENCE ;., Another call cornea for the Presi dent of the United States to invite the tions to, a world conference for dis lament Senator Millard E.

' Name - r - Address , r--- Town, . State.. which we can place absolute reliance in the cure of colds, we. should en deavor to build up resistance by prop er diet and plenty of sleep. When feasible, avoid people who have colds. Experience has taught us many valuable lessons in the treatment of coWa. For example a prominent phy sician, told the writer that during an epidemic of- colds a year ago every member of his household, including the servants, took severe colds, with the exception of two of his daughters. Both of the girls were convalescing from malaria and were still taking quinine. One of the girls was unusual ly susceptible to colds, but in this par ticular epidemic was protected by quinine. Dr. Fishbein, whom you all know as a medical authority, says, "Quinine Sulfate has been used for years as an abortive treatment for colds." Dur ing the war a physician who served in an army hospital told me that when a soldier began to develop a cold, he was immediately ordered to bed. He was given two grains of quinine to gether with an intestinal antiseptic every three hours. A laxative was ad ministered to rid the bowels of pois ons, and the kidneys were flushed by drinking plenty of water and fruit Juices. This treatment usually result ed in restoring him to duty in a day or two. Do not neglect a cold. If you be gin to develop one, go to bed at once and follow the treatment as outlined above. Nothing yet has been discov ered that is so effective in prevent ing and curing colds as quinine. We have abundance of proof for this among men of science, who have giv en us the benefit of their observations and experiences. - . The above treatment is lust aa ef fective with children as it is with adults." Of course the amount of quinine to be given children is in pro portion to their ages. They all take cocoa quinine with little or no persuasion. i. It is foolish, almost criminal, to ne glect a cold by so doing you may de velop a serious illness and also spread it throughout the community. This may result in expense and even death. Don't leave the cold to cure itself. Left alone there are so many dangers in this, the most common of all known ailments. There aro manv anf- tferers from chronic sinusitis, bronchit is, mastoiditis, and other respiratory disorders all on account, of a neglect ed cold. ' A good tonic to help ward off colds is quinine and iron. ONE MINUTE SPORTS QUIZ 1. What horse did Colonel Matt Winn choose as the greatest Ameri can thoroughbred? 2. Who was Bronko Nagurski? 3.
