All of their statements emphasized these points: We are pledged to give all-out aid to England. The people favor our stand as the “arsenal of Democracy.” fighting the l>ntUl, barbarious inhu man force represented by Hitlerism than live in a world that is dominat ed by that force.” He said that our production of supplies is “valueless unless laid down.at Britain’s doorV and urged “pnmipt and effective ac tion” at any cost.

Although tto prac tice hasn’t yet become wide^iread, it is polhted out here that sudi a practice is apt to send prkto iqt arti ficially on products which, in the end, may not be taxed at alL Income tax increases and sales taxes on specific products are ex pected to account for the majmr part of the ,new taxes. It looks now aa thou^ those with hicomes ranging from $2,000 to $5,000 Will be subject to the greatest increases add may have to pay from three to four times whkt they paid this year. BABY CHICKS.
