Behind The Scenes In American Business WASHINGTON Nearly one quarter of the population will be in school this fall. The Depart ment of the Interior estimates rec ord-breaking enrollments as fol lows: Elementary schools, 22,400,- 000; high schools, 6,750,000; col. leges and universities, 1,350,000. Reason for the big enrollment is traced back to the high birthrate averaging 23 per 1,000 population in the years 1020-24. Since the rate for the five years 1931-35, was down to 17.2 per thousand, a shrinkage in school attendance a few years hence seems inevitable. The teaching profession, even now over-crowded in some areas may then be faced with reduction in the ranks of its working members, un less new avenues for employment of professional talent such as adult education classes, consumer education classes and the like, can take up the slack. LABOR VIEWS TAXES—lndus try should work with labor for im mediate revision of the American tax structure. That is the sense of what Matthew Woll, vice president of the American Federation of Labor, told the National Small Bus. inessmen’s Association in Pitts burgh. Woll contended that ‘ taxes can and should be distributed more equitably and so as not to stifle business or to tax incentive which is the source of new industry and new employment.” Though admit ting that with current govern ment expenses and the mounting public debt, it might be necessary to increase tax revenues next year, Woll protested excessive duplica tion of taxes, failure of federal, state and local taxing authorities to define the use to which the in direct tax revenues were to be put, and the increasing trend toward hidden taxes. lie termed it a crit ical time in the nation’s history, adding that “upon the fairness of taxing plans to be worked out will rest the success of today’s recov ery spending program. If that fails, what shall follow—-debt re pudiation, inflation, or political and financial collapse?” Observers viewed Woll’s attack on the pres ent tax structure as significant of a new trend in labor’s move to further cooperation with industry. WHAT RETAILERS ARE DO lNG—Wondering if the new adver tising stunt of New York State could be applied to their business.
