Completing an ex houstive study, a special committee, packed 1 with “big” boys, has com ■ thiough with lur ing bait for the little fellow and the promise of big reductions in the high income tax brackets. Proposing a reduction of more than lour billion dollars in income taxes, the commit tee suggests reducing the little fellow’s tax schedule from I!) to 15 percent and dropping the big fellow's by about thirty percent. Tax reliel is welcomed any old time, but this is hardly the time to start whacking ; away at the basic structure of our economy. Reduce taxes and there’ll be no money to ' help maintain a balance between agricul ture and industry. Reduce taxes and there'll be no billions to finance the Marshall Plan. Reduce taxes and government services and aids will have to be eutrailed in like pro- | portion. Eliminate waste and graft, yes. but Mr. Republican don't take any action that will shift the burden of taxation from the should- ; ns of those most able to pay to those least 1 able to pay Such action invites the .sms. Y/iese Things 1 omv \ol Hurl, J’y Ruth Taylor 'I'iit it if, an old proverb taken from the 1 Persian "Pour things come not back the spoken wont the sped arrow the past life | and the neglected opportunity. “The spoken word.” It is not the fine \ tilings we have said that come back to us. ! What haunts us is the careless word, the I critical speech, the unconscious cruelty. The times we misundt rstood or misinterpreted our neighbor’s action, the hast \ genera I iza t'on, the rimiiii repeated as though it were fact, the unkind gossip, are what we remem ber. I! we are sincere in our endeavors to do right, these things plague us. These are the words that hurt us as deeply as those against whom we talked, “The sped arrow ” This is the b. h of un kindness that went straight to the leart of our neighbor, the wise-crack that stung, the I indifference to our brother’s needs, the cold I withdrawal from the common life. The J sharp trick, the self-interest we displayed, the spurning of the outstretched hand are among the things that torment us. “The past life." Not only do we recall those things we did individually but our na tional mistakes, for which wo. as citizens, are responsible. We neglected the develop ing of brotherly relations between Amen V !-*, f ",i j 11AA/jn /.^eei jrnrwjrl.. ,TV. \H.- '■] - tior.ist attitude toward the problems of the world. We allowed the sores of other na tion's t'i..fester and flare up until the plague threatened us with its virus of hatred. “The neglected opportunity.” Here again we suffer from both our individual and no-, tional er rors -the friendships we " did" hoi "' make, the help to tire downtrodden We did not give, Tfie respaiiAu *#*>' we shirked. \\?t. created out of me wilderness a great nation. We founded a democracy- but now have we lived up -to it? We boast that the United States has the ideal living plan for all. If we mean what we say, then we must begin immediately to put an end to the hatreds that have been permitted to creep in. or we will undermine our own basic principle and go back hun dreds of years to 1he bigotry of old that de stroyed nations. We have our opportunity now to correct old mistakes—but we must remember the four things that come net back: Let the words we speak be words of fairness and friendship. Let the arrows we send forth carry venges of brotherly love. Let our life be as near to what we want our future to be. as we can make it—and let us not neglect any opportunity to prove the worth of our taith. | "p, Iliiifioin. /Vo/ Hltiilfivon News and Observer The wisest friends of luLynr Wilson and Roosevelt fought to insure eolleetive bar gaining m industry. That was a rebuke to employers who demanded of labor “take it or leave it,” when they f'xed a wage: and to labor organizations which now say “Here’s our scale like1 it or wo will strike.” Both are imperialistic bludgeoning- instead of demo cratic bargaining. Collective bargaining and arbitration alone will secure justice and insure good re lations. The above principle applies to the situa tion in the textile industry in North Caro lina and other Southern States which face the threat of a strike' unless wage increases recently granted in Northern mills are matched. There should be bargaining, and, if nec essary, arbitration L'efore the strike and not afterwards. Negotiate ns should be begun immediately and should be conducted in a atmosphere of icason and earnest effort to meet common ground. t. i t't’il /'<>/■ l.iriiif! Humanity is no empty word. Do not be taken in bv the claptraps of this troubled epoch by the runnersamuck, by the St. Vit us dancers and the howling dervishes of whatsoever creed they may uphold. To be true to be simple, to be gentle of heart, to remain cheerful and collected in sorrow and in danger, to love life and not to fear death, to serve the spirit and not be haunted by spirit- nothing better has over been taught since the world began.
