SEPTEMBER, 1958 Taxes Are Paid in Hours of Work Let's see if we can bring you and your job a little :loser to the way things are shaping up on the American economic scene. First, let's look at the tax aicture, because it is of such [jreat and growing importance to all of us who work for a living. Here, the basic fact to remember is that jovernment produces no unnfis or nthor fnrmc of m n_ 3 ...w V* terial wealth. Before the Government can have anything to give out, it must take in. That is why you are taxed, rhe more the Government gives out, the more it must take in from you, because you produce goods and wealth. Today 37,817,000 citizens are receiving direct payments from the Treasury of the Federal Government. Considering the dependents of these individuals, it may be that fully half of our population is on the receiving end in some degree. The other half necessarily is on the paying end.

Then, too, the X-ray equipment to be used in this survey is designed especially for adults and can't be easily adjusted to X-rav youngsters. Chest X-ray for children may be arranged by contacting vour private physician or the county health department. This is important if the children are contacts of tuberculosis adults.
