The findings of Dr. Gallup’s recent
poll that people are opposed to the
four-day week may surprise Mr.
Walter Reuther and the other labor
leaders who see that a future demand
on industry.
But they really shouldn’t be too
startled. For even though most of
the men who were queried voted the
idea down there’s no doubt that the
ladies were the ones who piled up the
big majority.
And we have an idea the ladies’
vote was influenced not so much by
the question of more or less work a
week as it was by some other consid-
erations.
Most of the ladies we know are
very happy to have a man about the
house. But after all, enough’s
enough.—Wall Street Journel.

WASHINGTON. — The Postoffice
Department says its new red-white—

cities, said the department logged
each of two sets of vehicles through.
10,000,000 miles of driving. The test
groups numbered 3,500 units each,
one still wearing olive drab, the oth-
er repainted in tri-color. The logs
showed:
The olive drab fleet was involved,

sounds ridiculous to you, just follow
along on these further comparisons:
“The amount of Federal Govern-
ment taxes taken out of this plant
last year was equal to: two and a
quarter full page adds each week . . .
or
“9c out of every dollar taken in
(whether or not a profit was made),
or
“Over $260 in cash every week.
“These taxes took enough money
out of our plant to pay for any one
of the following:
“Heat, for 22 years.
“Postage for nine years.
“Electric lights for 32 years.
“Water for 103 years.
“Electric power for nine years.
“Electric heat for typesetting ma-
chines for 22 years.
“Telephone for 21 years.
“Freight cost for 12 years.
“Insurance for 15 years.
“You may ask . . . ‘Well, what are
we going to do about it?’
“The answer is: We don’t know.
We know that spending by Govern-
ment is too high . . . that taxes are
too high and going higher . . . we’ll
do our share of the squawking, but
one voice is hardly an uproar.
“Actually, we would propose that
tax-conscious people everywhere se-
riously consider the problem before
the next primary election in 1958. At
that time something can be done if
everyone will crack down on the
spenders in Washington.”
Mr. and Mrs. Mack Taylor and
Mrs. Paul Taylor of Sherman spent
Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. E. W.

and reckless spending in Washing-

Guy T. Ludi, of The Wahoo News-
paper (combining The Democrat and

cently reported:
“We paid to the Federal Govern-
ment an average of $6.53 per hour for
every hour our plant was in operation
last year. This figure is equal to the
salaries of three skilled workmen for
an entire year . . . three skilled work-
men that never showed up for work.
“The Federal taxes we paid could
