ANTHONY SPENCER, Real Estate Sales PHONE Clifton 5743 Insurance Springfield 28371 C ONGRESS has been coasting this past week with a sort of gentleman’ s agreement not to take up much legislation, particularly controversial legislation. Instead, the Republican and Democratic leadership has been out making po­ litical speeches at the Lincoln-day and Jackson-day dinners, the Re­ publicans viewing with alarm and the Democrat? pointing with.■pride. t. 4, * “Jfc******. : -f • -V In the meantime there’- is mounting pressure from"many sources demanding an immed­ iate cut in excise taxes. Mail is pouring into the offices of the legislators declaring that the tax is hurting business, that buyers are waiting until the levies are repealed before buying. Some sources even de­ clare there is a “buyers* strike’* and that this “ strike” .. will get' worse unless the -war ’ time taxes are repealed, President Truman’s tax message'’ to the’ congress requested excise tax reductions. Many groups are not content with reductions. They' want them all removed. There are 27 industries affected by these excise levies, and they have joined forces in a national committee for the repeal of war­ time excise taxes and reported, under the lobby law, that the com­ mittee has received $23,750 for the last quarter of 1949. • * • Also in the President’s mes­ sage was a request for the congress to plug certain loop­ holes In the tax laws, partlc- nlar mention being made of „ certain oil and gas companies. Then there are certain groups, such as the National Associated. Businessmen, Inc., which ' want the loopholes plugged be­ fore the excise cuts are made, ' And this group has in mind . the farmer cooperatives-* and Jhe faxing of patronage, re -- ■funds of the coops. The farm, coops, however, declare the President did not have in mind the taxing of patronage re­ funds when he was talking ' about loopholes and the NCFO Washington J e t t e r declared “ the national lax Equality as­ sociation’s Washington spokes- ' man, the National Associated j Businessmen, Inc., and Rep. > Noah M. Mason, (B., EL) were quick tov read into .the message a presidential direc­ tive to tax members patronage refunds in the hands of farm­ er cooperatives.” . The American Retail association however, want excise taxes elim­ inated first,. and they •oppose tht plan of the National Association o: Manufacturers for a general man' ufacturer.’s tax.tq replace fhe- pres ept taxes on travel, entertainmen'' ' and. communication.?, Tpe NAN proposal for a five per cent man ufacturer’s levy was proposed las December. They declare "that i uniform tax on “ all end prpducti of manufacturing, except food anc food products, would help correc undeniable evils in the presen' levy which hits some industry groups heavily ' and*unfairly.” The talk here is that John L. Lewis has finally got himself “over arbarrel” in that he is not in position to force the coal operators into line as he once eonld,t.for the reason^ that be" - has priced ooa! but of the mar­ ket. Industrial leaders and building leaders' point out that hundreds - of large industries have converted'from coal to oil and gas; that railroads also • are using oil.and electric mo­ tive power more and more; that there has not been an ur­ ban-built home constructed in the. past two years that is hot equipped with oil or gas-heat­ ing units; that even large hotels in the cities are convert- . ihg to oil burning. Steel, is still dependent 'upon coal for fuel because they must .have coke for their furnaces. Despite this, the question still'-remains, can a man be forced to wbrk? m. * ’ • Opinion here is that Republican .candidates from-the house and sen-' ate this year-'WiU-fghorfe 'the cently- released’-Republioan ' stated ' ment-ofpolicy.. The candidates bn the ticket did not want the state­ ment in the first place, preferring So run upon the 1948 Republican- platform, but the GOP .national committee found themselves forced into such a statement to satisfy their .regular campaign contribu-» stors. There is nothing new in the: ^statement and nothing.that would' attract a Democratic or indepen- jdgooeter.

Ends Tonight At OperaHouse A spokesman said—Whenever Cedarville with a population of about a thousand can draw ap­ proximately ■7,000 persons to a revival meeting." in 12 consecu­ tive nights—it proves that GOD is on the move and that & great revival is sweeping the- nation. Every -one agrees'' that the young Evangelist, Max Good— has an appointment of the Holy Spirit, and is'an unusually gifted, and powerful speaker who is un­ afraid to deal with unvarnished facts. As one minister put it—Cedar- vilel will never be the same since Max Good came. And the-impact of his strong messages concern­ ing the keeping and saving grace of Jesus Christ.

TO MY FRIENDS It is with great reluctance that I am leaving Cedarville. After death has visited our home and .taken from it the heart of the home, I find it necessai’y to make certain changes. Mrs. Wagner provided for my remaining here and Mr. and Mrs. Evans insisted- that I still make this my hi%e. But after five years “and seven months of happy and Congenial companionship it would be too lonesome. /To bring outside help in to work with the furnishings that Mrs. Wagner prized so high-, ly and for which she had worked so hard to secure, I just have not the heart to do it and I must not do it. The old home in Arlington is calling strongly. The home in which Mrs. Wagner and myself lived and passed 32 happy years, where our youngest daughter passed* into ' the - spirit world, whene* wife axxd~I celebrated our Golden Wedding, from which a loving^ and devoted companion left me after more than 57 happy years of companioixship.' In the old home daughter is alone and lonely. She and, her children in­ sist 6n my returning to make it my home "again. Besides I still •have business connections there. I find it nece ssary to heed the call. In doing this I am ‘ confident that I am leaving behind many, ' many, true friends who have taken the stranger within their " gates into their hearts and homes In ~taking** this stop they must know that 1 fully appreciate their friendly handclasp, their smile of friendship, their words of wel­ come. I know-that if Alta was living; (She is still Alta to- me), would join with me in saying, . “ God be with you till we meet - again.” My sincpi’jS.’vyishlfor dll > thes citizens o f tjedajrville and- • ' Vaciniity is, the -hest of every­ thing; Respectfully, C.
