drafting of young miners: and
(4) all possible speed in turning
out badly-needed mining equip-
ment. President Truman was high-
ly sympathetic on all these points.
There are about 137,000 coal
miners now in the armed forces ;
As a result, the work force in the
paying high income taxes
now—and truly we are. Many
more individuals are paying
income taxes since the war
started than ever before—in
fact we now have 50,000,000
individual taxpayers now as
compared to 4,000,000 before
the war. $45 billion dollars
is being paid in now as com-
pared to $5 billion prior to
war.
There are two reasons why
there is more taxpayers now.
First the exemption has been
lowered and secondly wages
are far above the average of
pre-war days. The many dol-
lars being paid in annually is
only a small part of the cost
of carrying on a war such as
we are now engaged in—in
■ five and one-half months (not
j counting the month in which
i they return) before they pay

temporary duty, rest or reassign-
ment. Such leaves or furloughs
may not exceed 45 days, except
in such cases as wives of prison-
ers of war.
Q. If a soldier comes back
from overseas for redeployment
owing income taxes, does he have
to pay these taxes before going-
overseas again?
A. Not unless he is in this
country for five and a half
months. The Secretary of the
Treasury has recently extended
the period when accrued income
taxes of returning servicemen fall
due. Service personnel returning
from overseas may now wait un-
til they have been in the United
States for a continuous period of

Washington, July 12.—One of
the worst wastes of food in months
occurred recently in Norfolk, Va.
it involved potatoes for Belgium.
■Several weeks ago the army
promised three shiploads of po-
tatoes to' Belgium, to replace po-
tatoes which our troops had used
in that country, Spuds are preci-
ous in Belgium, so the Belgians
wanted them back. The war food
administration agreed to provide
the potatoes, and the war shipping
administration was to provide the
shipping. Everything was set.
War food, however, was able to
get a sufficient quantity of spuds
only by accepting potatoes of good
quality but of high moisture con-
l tent. These spoil more easily than
- those with lower moisture. The
war shipping administration was
warned of this difficulty, and told
that good refrigeration was es-
sential. Liberty ships with mod-
ern refrigeration units were to be

fact the average person can-
mqdacvisyaliza the extreme
large figures our government
deals in when figuring in the
war debt.
It is necessary for us to
produce war materials if we
want to win the war. It is
necessary for us to win the
war if we want to live a life
of freedom. But despite the
fact that we need these huge
sums of money to carry on
the war and win our freedom,
we find many individuals
evading their taxes—they are
not paying their fair share
of the cost of war to preserve
their own freedom,.
The geat majority of Amer-
ican citizens recognize the
necessity for heavier taxes to
meet war costs, make honest
returns and pay their tax
bills without protest.
War conditions, however,
have been accepted by too
many persons as represent-
ing an opportunity to conceal
income: This is especially
true as to black market op-
erators, whose dealings are
conducted largely in currency,
and as to other racketeers
and war profiteers. The hon-
est taxpayer inevitably pays,
directly or indirectly, the tax
which the crook dodges.
Since it is obviously impos-
sible to police tax collections
adequately with forces of pre-
war size, the treasury depart-
ment has undertaken to re-
cruit 5,000 additional in-
vestigators, plus another
5,000 to 6,000 persons to do
the office work connected
with expanded tax collecting
program. President Truman
has given his vigorous ap-
proval to the program and
has added the helpful pro-
posal that particular atten-
tion be given to recruiting
from among discharged ser-
vice men, those who are
qualified by experience and
training for the stepped-up
enforcement program.
So it all boils down to this
point—we must do our part,
pay our taxes and try to abide
by the requests of our gov-
ernment. If we insist on
patronizing the black market-
then we are making it
tougher on our own selves.
We give him high profits and
yet he is not paying income
taxes which makes us have
to pay more in the long run.
The only answer is to shoot
square and don’t deal with the
black market—not even if
we are out of cigarettes and
get a chance to get a carton
for $2.50. Just do without
until you find some at the
regular price. If we do this
the black marketeers will be
