iFMr Hal Boyle'
- awoke to find he wasn’t in demand any
mure Though he’d pioneered talking pic-
tures and had made several films, neither
atage nor screen wanted him. He was told
his ’’vogue’’ was ended: youngsters of
the new age preferred Crosby. Sinatra
and others.
A! never acknowledged that he be-
longed in the quiet realm of faded stars
' ”1 never quit."* he said. ”1 just couldn’t
find a job.’’
Then, incredibly, at 60 he sat* himself
thrust once again into the lull flame of
stardom. They called it a comeback; but
to Jolson it was just a long-postponed
chance to resume where he’d left off
It happened i>ecause someone got the
bright idea of making a movie of Al's
life with Jolson singing but another actor
appearing for him on the screen
“The Jolson Story” was a terrific box-
office smash. Jolson was the rage again.
? in demand for more guest radio appear-
ances than he could make. A sequel to the
film followed, and it was a hit too. Al
was making more money than ever before.
- and treating a whole new generation to
his singing magic.
In both world wars, he'd done yeoman
service entertaining at the front. It *.v
the kind of thing exactly cut out for a
man like Jolson. endlessly devoted to mak-
ing others happy through song.
When the Korean war came, it was
no surprise to learn that Al was the first
to head for the field to entertain the em-
battled. weary G.I.’s. In 16 days he gave
42 shows. He got an Army emblem for
it. presented by General MacArthur When
he came home, he joked in characteristic
Jolson vein:
• ‘ I’m going to look up my income tax
. and see if I paid enough. Those guys are
; wonderful.’’
No one can l»c sure whether the -train
of that trip led directly to his death. Al
; always lived hard and he didn’t know
• how to relax. He probably «a.'n't destined
’ to live to lie 90. anyway.
Al knew what he had He could al-
ways see it reflected in the eyes >>f those
• who listened to him sing That was his
• richest reward Hut he couldn’t be Mamed
I for treasuring that little emblem the
’ Army gave him. He was wearing it < n h;s
• last night
• Now the Jolson magic, that strange
’ mixture of heart and fire poured into
• song, is stilled The world cannot help
I but be a barer place.

In his Broadway days. Jolson often
used to interrupt the show by whistling
loudly for a special sjKitlight. Then he’d
trot otd on a runway Iieyond the toyt-
lights, and sing continuously for lu or
minutes.
For years he'd go home to hi.- apart-

a group of his friends waiting to hear
him sing some more. He almost always

Duting World War II corporations had to pav
an excess piofiu- tax when their earnings were
ballooning with war contracts That tax started
ui 1940 arid Congress ended it In 1945 after the
war
From then until now business firms have had
to pay simp?, a corporation tax At thi- moment
it is 25 per cent on the first »25 000 and 45 per
cent on all over that first S25 000
Tj keep down profits. Congress <ou..f increase
that regular tax any wav it pleased For instance,
it could de-ide that henceforth business firms
must pay a flat so per cent tax on all earning.-
The pu-h tor restoration of an excess profit-
tax got under wax after the fighting started in
Korea and this eountty began its big defense pro-
gram which may last tor years.
President Truman urges an excess prunes tax
So do others, -uch as the CIO Seme members
of Congress prefer that, some prefer a larger
corporation tax And businessmen are not all
agreed on which thev'a prefer
Under the excess profits tax plan, a firm pax-
a flat tax or. it- earnings up to a certain amount
and then an additional very large tax on aU
earning- above that amount
The World War II excess profits tax worked
follows
A flat tax of 40 per cent on a certa.ii amount of
a firm - earnings and an excess profits tax of
95 per cent on all earnings above that amoutil
■ But any time Congress wants to impo-e .w
excess proiit* tax or. ouainess firms it mu-t de-

during the w ar it paid
A tax of 40 per cent on each x*ar s earning-

$100 000 of its earmngs—which was the -am* as
the average for 1936-39—and 95 per cent oti all
above $100 000. or 95 per cent of $50 OOo m this
case
That period—1936 through 1939—was called the
base period m figuring a firm's average ear:.mgs
