FATHER AND SON
,~,
i'resident Taft ca!led an international Conference to dis-
cuss ways and me tfls 0f enforcing peace. His idea Was to
keep war from bt eakitig out by Suppressing or destr6ying
any government that showed signs ot wanting a war. How
little he dreamed that in less than thh'ty years his own son
woulit advocate appeasement of a hell-raiser like Hitler!

THOSE WHO HAVE MUCH PAY
tax bills pending "in Congress portend much higher
taxes. Those who make a bare living will pay nothing at

tax for those whose income is above a certain figure is small.
the rate increasing as the income increases, Those who pay
much will be those who get much. Besides, we soon adjust
ourselves to increased levies.
