Gambling Tax Proposed A move is now on ip Congress to levy a tax on gamblers as a| revenue measure. Congress is al-' ways quick to jump at ar.v propos al that will produce more money.; The t. x would include a 10 per, cent excise on all bets on sporting events, elections, or other contests made with bookmakers or others who accept wagers for a profit. It would seem that with all the crime and scandal so prevalent now, much of it reportod in gov ernment. that such a proposal would not be considered by a group of congressmen and senators who arc sincerely concerned over the present dangerous and decay ing titnd It doesn't make sense for vf rnment to pass a bunch of • tended to decrea-e crime as ,• h\ the recent senate crime . ■ ng committee, and then i and make legal gam* vrpnscs which the gov- ,.^h? ta be rrv.nc t snut th« lav applied for a carpenter’s job. They told me, he said, that I would have to go back to Augusta and join a union, paying an initiation fee of $108, with subsequent dues of $5.50 per month. He drifted around from one crew to another talking with the men—and looking. He will report the glaring waste oL manpower he saw to the Atomic Energy Commision. Such loafing as reported is the reason costs will continue to mount. And the requirement that! he join a union and pay mitia-! tion fees of 108 would guarantee him, no doubt, a job permanently, regardless of how much he loafed. The government is making the rules for employment, calling the plays and paying the bills.

The elimination of tight secrecy in relief distribution would go a long way to remedy this out rageous cost of relief.

He was instructed to stay in bed. but even ten days complete rest failed to correct or improve his condition. He was then advised that he would not be able to work again unless he submitted to a spinal op eration. The same day he decided to consult another doctor rather than have the operation. He went directly to the office of Dr. C. J. Hart, local Chiropractor,' who found the cause of his trouble! and corrected it in a very short i period of time. His response was so' great that he returned to his job 16 days after Dr. Hart gave v thej first treatment, and yet another doctor was said to have made the! statement that an operation was necessary. Millions of Americans are turn ing to Chiropractic treatments for their backaches and obtaining re lief and complete recovery with this modern science. If you are suf fering with backaches, strains, rheumatism, arthritis, sciatica or neuritis, you are invited to have a consultation with Dr. Hart.
