WhUe his colleagues deli- ’■^cately suggest ''one or two new : sChrces of revenue, he comes out ■"with a taxation program designed to ; produce $750,000,000 annually and af fecting almost every known taxable commodity or activity. Among his suggestions are taxes that amount in extreme instances to 49 per cent on ihe fattest incomes and drastically liigher estate taxes, and an assess- 'ment of from 10 , to 25 per cent' on tflie radio industry’s revenue's from tiroadcasting contra'cts plus a sales tax on ra^io equipnfeiit. He would also rai'^e the first-c’ass postage rate from two to two and one-half cents anj levy taxes on automobiles, air planes, yachts, cosmetics ,,and per fumes. ^ Incredible as it may seem. Mr. La Guardia has omitted something— beer! . *]t has been estimated that the governiticnt’s revenue from a resiir, reeled brewery industry would almost banish our de.ficit troubljes. Strange is the. Xew Yorker’s silence on the subject in view of the fact -that he is one of the most .prominent anti- prohibitionist.?, in Congress. Is it possible that Mr. La Guardia is sim ply tired of hearing the current de mands for beer and wants to sug gest something different? FINE ARTS EVENING AT WAGRAM, OCTOBER 23r(l John Chas.

Nathan O’Berry, State Treas urer and outstanding North Carolina business man and farmer. “For know that farming can be profitable in future whatever be the situation Bnt because of this passing situation anyone with sense enough to buy land or good securities and will power enough to hold on to what they buy can lay the foundations for becoming just as wealthy as they ever want to be. “Don’t you remember what fools we made of ourselves ten years ago, when the depression of 1921 was on? I talked with a lot of big business men at a convention that year and they thought the situation was all but hopeless. Three years later I talked with the same men and re minded them of the gloom that had overwhelmed as. It was a Joke then. "This feeling of gloom when re called a few years hendh will be laughable too. "Why, we have more of practically everytftftig, except con fidence, than we ever had before; We are Just scared, that’s all. “I’ve seen the pendnluin swing back and forth many times since as a lad of 15 I went to work for a rail road in the panic year of 18713.’There is no qnestion that it will swing forth again as it always has done after- de pressions In the past. * - “My advice to everybody is to sit tight, hold on and don’t reek the boat which will right itself soon If gjven a half chance. North Carolina farm ers ate as a nile in excellent posi-^ tion to sit tight and h^d cm. Their land is in better shape and they ha-ve more food and feedstuffs than ever before. As a land owner 1 dm not worrying at all.” THE “LUCKY'NUMBERS’’ FROM LAST WEEK’S TICKETS ARE 33667 AND 70181 * 41 It- ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ * 41 4i 4^ 4^ Jk ¥ FOR If.
