By OLIN E. TEAGUE
Congressman 6th District
II MU1IISPUII, D. , CUO, lie—Ulc
Republican promise to cut uutea
ucioee tne boon and tueir apparent
realization shown by tbe split in Re-
publican ranks that it must not oe
none nos provided much comment
during the past week in Wasiungtou.
And forever in front of tne U.O.F.
leadership and the Democratic minor-
ity is the huge national debt, wmen
will not be paid in this generation
even with the tstxes continuing as
they are. But 1 believe every effort
should be made to pay os much os
possible by the people who made the
debt, -we of this generation.
I believe that we should practice
economy in government just as wise
men do in private enterprise. And
when a man’s business is mortaged,
the smart administrator tries to pay
up as quickly as possbile. Following
that line of good business practice
we must detemine what expenses are
absolutely necessary and eliminate
all others.
Along with paying the national
debt, such items In the budget as na-
tional defense, veterans program, and
interest on the public debt will neces-
sitate large expenditures. There ore
many governmental services that all
of ua demand which would be neces-
sarily hampered if their funds were
reduced. The Post Office Department
is an example of this. These services
and many others rendered for every-
one puts the daily cost of our com-
plex government at a high figure.
I All must be paid for, and Ameri-
cans like to pay their debts. Let’s cut
taxes at the expense of the bureau-
crats, but not at the expense of good
gdvernment.
I This week the bill continuing all
^wartime excise taxes was brought up
"under a “dosed” rule. We had to
vote for or against the entire pro-
posal, and 1 personally felt that it
was unwise to make all wartime levies
permanent. I felt that with the war
over we should reduce some of the
taxes that are luxuries, such as pic-
ture shows, telephone bill, light bulbs,
and railroad and bus tickets.
I believe, however, that luxuries
such as fur coats, whiskey, etc., should
continue to carry heavy taxation, if
we were to wipe out all these taxes
e would be. little hope of giving
income tax relief, and some salary
classifications need relief there. Un-
der the Republican rule there was no
chance to .separate the good from the
bad in the voting, so I, like others,'
• oted for ihc bill which passed easily.
Many housewives will be interested

3. That the Agriculture Secretary

n 000 short tons of sugar from

H to increase production in 1947-48.

ways “you can help yourself
to good telephone service
Telephoning is easy. But more depends on the user than people realise.
What you do when making or receiving a call often hat a lot to do with
how satisfactory that call is. Here are ten suggestions:
Before you call, make sure
of tha number. If you’re not
sura of K, look in the tele-
phone directory, and thus
avoid wrong numbers.
—• one tne called party time to answer. He or
she may be some distance from the telephone.
A minute isn’t too long.
Speak directly into the mouthpiece.
About an inch between it and your
lips is right for best results.
Move the switch hook slowly up
and down to recall or signal the
operator. “Jiggling” the hook rapid-
ly often won’t cause a signal to
1 come in and is useless.
if
5. Replace the teed vdr Care fully.when you
finished talking.' A receiver partly 4'fTtha
puts the whole line out of order.
■ fl
have
tb* hook
6. Answer calls promptly. It’s courteous to do so
and often keep# the caller from hanging up-
thinking you’re not at home.
7. Identify yourself when you call or answer.
Not everyone recognizes you by your voice.
Telling who you are saves time and sometimes
embarrassment.
8. Space calls on party lines.
If you have a series of calls to
make, allow a few minutes
between each one so others can
uae the line to call or be called.
9‘ Keep calls brief on party lines. Other folks on
the line will appreciate your thoughtfulness and .
—who knows—may follow your good example.
^ '•
Avoid calling in busy hours if
possible. Switchboards are usu-
- ally busiest during midthoming -
and late afternoon. , (

Whether for shaves or automatic
home laundry you need plenty
There’s over 140 different needs for hot water in
the modern household. Of all the water it uses,
8 5 percent is hot. Shaving is just one of the needs.
Big users are the new automatic dish washers and
home laundries. For instance, automatic laundry
requires over 18 gallons of 160-degree water to
soak, wash and rinse nine pounds of clothes. So
capacity of heater is all important. If you’re plan-
ning to build, modernize or install one of those
do-everything automatic washers, better see your
gas appliance dealer or plumber about your hot
water supply. A gas-automatic water heater of
proper size will provide all the hot water you
need at a remarkably low cost.
