For example, keys carried every
day in the hip pocket rub against
chairs and before long may wear
holes through both pocket and out
er cloth. The habit of overloading
pockets stretches and stains them,
sometimes tearing corners.
Pencils and pens clipped in pock
ets have a tendency to wear the
cloth.
Wide belts often cause belt loops
on trousers to wear through. A nar
row belt that slips through easily
saves mending or replacing loops.
Trousers a little too long often
wear out before their time on the
lower edge of cuffs.

Do You Want To Cut
Your Federal Taxes?
Something For Nothing
Yon know that you can't keep
drawing money out of your bank
account without ever putting any
in. The bank doesn't play that way.
This is also true of Federal financ
ing. Every dollar spent must
sooner or later be collected in the
form of taxes.
Many of these taxes are hidden,
such as the $2.44 you pay on a $30
radio, or the 62 cents on the
average alarm dock. These are in
addition to the direct taxes of
which the average citizen is pain
fully aware.
Tax money is necessary to run
our government. But all too much
of it is wasted by inefficiency, dup
lication of effort, overlapping of
Federal agencies or appropriations
for services to pressure groups.
Heretofore, no one has known
how much these government ser
vices cost us through waste and
inefficiency. But some surprising
facts have been revealed by the
Commiasion on the Organisation of
the Executive Branch of the Gov
ernment. This twelve-man, bi
partisan Commiasion was created
by Congress with the approval of
the President. At the suggestion
of Mr. Truman, former President
Hoover waa made its Chairman.
The Army, Navy, and Air Force
asked for $30 billions of appropria
tions after being told that $15 bil
lions was ' all the Nation could
afford. The Army applied for 829,
000 tropical uniforms at $129 apiece
and homes for military personnel
in Alaska at $58,000 apiece. Yet
every dollar spent in such activities
comes out of your pocket in the
form of taxes.
. Fifty Federal agencies Jostle
each other collecting statistics at an
annual cost to you, the taxpayer,
of $43,000,000. Many of the statis
tics are of nee only to small groups,
or collect dust in government files.
The Corps of Army Engineers
and the Bureau of Reclamation are
expert at selling the "something
for nothing" Idea to the American
public. : Underestimation of costs
appears to be their specialty. Tbe
original price tag pas on the
Colorado-Big Thomson project -waa
$44 millions. Its final cost waa
$181,800,000. Such discrepancies,
the Commission wryly notes, "hard
ly can be explained by increases
in labor and material costs."
Ton ' may , obtain information
about how yon can fight waste and
inefficiency in ow government by
writing to the Cltlsens Committee
for Reorganisation of the Exeea.

Molher doesn't distinguish between her children be
cause one has red hair oranother, blue eves. She
cherishes them all - and knows that what they are
's determined, not by whatthey look like, but by what
s in their hearts.
So it is with all men. As children of God, all mankind is equal, one
to another. As we attend church each Sabbath, let us heed the words
of the minister of our faith . . . and let us pray for guidance, that we
might learn to understand and love all our neighbors and fellow citi
zens . . . and teach our children the ways of truth and understanding.
And let us resolve now, at the start of this New Year, to support our
churches liberally, and attend them regularly. For it is through
them - - and them alone, that we can find true peace.
