BENSON President—Harding College Employment First People who work in the fields, in mills, mines and shops, on railroads and in industry generally, are to be congratulated upon President Truman’s choice of Fred M. Vin son, the new Secretary of the Treas ury of the United States. His under taking is enormous, delicate and vital. But it is my belief that no body else in government is quite as well qualified to handle the job as Vinson. The new cabinet member knows taxes. Things he has said already prove that he is keenly aware of two things that are currently the most important facts about taxes. (1) High taxes are necessary, now and for some time to come. (2) Wrongly devised taxes in the United States can wreck the financial struc ture of the entire world in a few months. Dark Ages might visit the earth again. A Dependable Thing The “yankee dollar” is one of few known quantities left in the finan cial world. While this condition lasts, there is away for weak and depleted countries to gain industrial and then financial strength. The dol lar will remain good so long as Uncle Sam keeps meeting his obli gations promptly, fulfilling prom ises and paying the interest on his stupendous national debt. Our debt is so big and America’s moral obligations are so exacting that taxes must be high after the war, much higher than they have ever been in peaceful years before. Government has no way to get mon ey except by taxing its citizens. Con sequently the citizens have to be prosperous. There must be full em ployment, plenty of jobs at good wages—otherwise not enough taxes. SEE!? Who’s cutting a I Cut-a-Cordi cord for YOUR WHM> boy? We can’t let wUpy him down!
