SAYS GAINESVILLE TO BE
GRAVE YARD AFTER WAR
Editor, The Register:
That we may help in a small
way to win the war, we tempo-
rarily suspended publication of
our paper on January 1, that our
plant may devote this time to
turning out printing for Camp
Howze and the men in the serv-
ice. Since we have no immediate
mouthpiece, I ask that you please
give me space in your Public
Forum column to answer Mr.
Morton Smith, writing in his
“Town Topics” column.
Several weeks ago your paper
carried a story to the effect that
as one of the post-war planning
projects, the state highway com-
mission was anxious to make a
deal now with Gainesville to re-
route in the future, the route of
Federal Highway 77 down Grand
Avenue, in exchanage for com-
pletion of the proposed highway
from Gainesville to Decatur,
known as the Butterfield Trail.
The article sQ stated that since
it was evident that the highway
commission will build a highway
from Whitesboro to the bridge at
Red River (which has .been
agreed to by both Texas and Ok-
lahoma highway commissions)
this new route in the future
would carry most of the traffic
now going over highway No. 77
through Gainesville.
Matter Not Discussed
Since the article appeared we
have not heard any discussion of
the matter. Most people in these
parts are too busy now working
at their jobs to give political and
municipal affairs any thought.
Mr. Morton Smith in his col-
umn last week urged the Cham-
ber of Commerce to get busy and
take up the matter as a post-war
project, that it would mean the
spending of hundreds of thou-
sands of dollars and give employ-
ment to many after the war is
over.
Now, all that sounds good, but
we wonder if Mr. Smith has for-
gotten how several years ago,
when the same matter was up
(the rerouting of highway No.
77 down Grand Avenue) it was
hotly contested by practically the
entire business interests of the
city. Has he forgotten how bitter
the fight was—that it divided
lots of our people, and because
of the action taken at that time
by the Chamber of Commerce
president, it put the organization
on th rocks and it had to be re-
built?
Post-war planning is all right
and has its place, but let us not
forget that in some of these after
the war projects, there is some
political or unknown motive be-
hind it, all being fostered for
selfish reasons. Some people are
looking for big things to happen
after the war is over. This war
has not yet been won. To our
way of thinking, it is everyone’s
duty at this time to hasten that
day by working harder, sacri-
ficing and putting in longer
hours, and cooperating in every
way with the war effort. The
only post-war planning our boys
in the service are doing, is to get
the job done quickly so they can

an army camp in our midst. But
let us not forget—it’s towns like
these, where defense projects and
army camps are located, that will
suffer the most after the war is
won. We are no crepe hanger,
but in plain words, we look for
Gainesville to be like a grave
yard. People who prepare for
that day will come out on top.
Towns and cities are like peo-
ple. If you want to kill a town
real quick, take it off the high-
way. After the war is over,
Gainesville will be dead enough
without removing it from a high-
way. It may need the bustle of
traffic down California street to
keep the merchants awake.
Instead of acting like some of
the would-be big shots are urg-
ing today about post-war plan-

Assembly Monday for
High School Seniors;
“notch” feature was being
worked out today by tax experts.
The idea is to keep the man who
owed somewhat more than $50
from paying a sizeable tax while
the obligation of a man just un-
der that figure would be com-
pletely cancelled.
For military and naval per-
' sonnel, the bill would exclude
$1,500 basic pay over and above
exemptions for other citizens,
accordingly, a member of the
armed forces would have a basic
exemption of $2,000 if Jingle, $2,-
700 if married. Also, tax obliga-
tions outstanding at the death of
a soldier or sailor would be can-
celled.
Since the 20 per cent withhold-
ing tax is designed to capture
only a 3 per cent victory tax and
17 per cent for the income tax
fund, it will not fully settle the
obligations of salary and wage
t earners whose income mounts
into the higher surtax brackets.
Single persons paid more than
$2,700 a year and married per-
sons paid $3,500 or more would
have to estimate their total tax
and pay quarterly on the amount
above withholdings.
A similar method would be
used to make approximately cur-
rent the payment of business
men, professional workers, land-
lords and others whose income is
derived from other than wages
or salaries. Underestimates
would be penalized.
