Korea—Dilemma No. 1 The American people want their gry. Such a move might also cause unemployment he're 'at htome^ which would be welcomed by the Democrats.. Hence, this third Di lemma. Competition during 1953 will be very severe, even among „ j U. S. manufacturers, without be- ' ing handicapped by r greater im- ! ports. Balancing Tha Budget lemma No. 4 Our new President will operate a more honest and economical Federal pavemment. There will be less money spent by all depart ment',', mclucting the military. More efficient operations may be expect ed. But this deflationary program may cause unemployment and low er profits. As most Federal in come is derived from taxing profits, this would mean lower tax re ceipts. This is a Dilemma which Eisenhower must face in 1953. Reducing Taxes—Dilemma No. 5 The Excess-Profits Tax will end during 1953. The Capital-Gains Tax could be reduced, and invest ors would benefit from the reduc tion. It exists only as a political rop to radical labor. Perhaps a token reduction of 5 per cent in in come taxes and 50 per cent in cer tain excise taxes will be granted in 1953. But if we have declin ing profits and dividends, as a re sult of Eisenhower fulfilling all his other promises, can he reduce tax es much more in 1953? Never be fore has any new President in herited such abnormally high tax es, upon the Government’s spend- unemploymcnt here TiriVSme, ing on which our prosperity is largely dependent. Hence this is Dilemma No. 5. Needed—A Spiritual Awakening I am thankful that Dwight D. Eisenhower is now President of our country. Unless World War III comes ( and if it comes Eisenhow er would be needed more than ever), inflation can be curbed. Hence, we have Confidence. This is a great step forward. , But the American people—except in emer gencies—are basically business and employment minded. Our marvel ous growth has been due largely to this fact. We do not like to sacri fice. Eisenhower believes that what is best for the world as a whole will ultimately be best for America. But only a great spiritual awak ening, brought about by some ad versity, will make our voters be lieve and act likewise. SAT: ‘*1 SAW IT IN THE CHRONICUT THANE. YOU ist hands. This is MRS.

Burnet R. Maybank, (D-SC) told 1,000 cotton industry leaders today he believes the economy- minded new congress will - make 1 sizeable reductions” in the new federal budget. The ranking Democrat on the Senate banking and currency com mittee addressed an opening ses sion of the National Cotton Council here. Said-Maybank: “We simply cannot continue to spend at the rate of recent years. We cannot pile deficit on deficit, without threatening the stability of our economy.” He said it will take “courage and fortitude” by Congress and “forbearance and self-denial by the people” to cut the budget. “Some of our pet projects or programs will have to be delayed or suspended. Some of the services we have come to expect in recent years will have to be •halted. Cities, counties and states will have to assume an ever-growing share of the burdens of government.” TABLE-TESTED FOR PURITY-TASTE AND GOOD BAKING . Milled By Allen Brothers Milling Co.
