Headache
for
Housewives
.
.
.
Admitting
the
need
for
a
reduction
in
the
rates
in
the
lower
brackets,
there
still
remains
the
problem
arising
from
the
fact
that
the
income-per-house-hold
is.
in
certain
classes,
at
unnrecedented
hpiVhts.
Where
perhaps
formerly
only
one
member
of
the
household
was
working,
there
now
may
be
several,
ranging
from
the
young
boy
or
girl
to
grandpa
and,
for
all
we
know,
grandma.
In
the
last
war,
such
households
found
an
outlet
for
surplus
funds
in
silk,
shirts
and
floor
lamps.
This
time
anil
at
this
stage'
-the
night
clubs
and
the
race
tracks
are
doing
very
well.
There
is,
however,
a
large
and
very
important
group
who
find
existing
taxes
a
severe
hardship.
!
This
is
the
group
who
have
no
additional
earners
in
'
the
household
and
who
have
been
held
down
by
wage
ceilings
to
the
same
rates
of
pay
as
prevailed
before
the
1942
taxes
hit
the
nation.
The
$50-per-week
salary
has
taken
a
sad
blow.
Compared
with
negligible
taxes
on
such
a
salary
for
a
married
man
prior
to
the
war,
the
total
tax
now
is
about
20
per
cent.
Such
a
cut
in
net
income
presents
a
real
problem
to
the
housewife,
especially
when
prices
of
necessaries
are
indubitably
higher.
This
plight
of
the
person
of
small
income
should
be
dealt
with
at
once.
And.
i
the
war,
there
should
be
revisions
to
relieve
the
situation
affecting
persons
of
larger
income.
Otherwise,
progress
will
be
impossible.
The
small
business
cannot
survive
under
the
present
rates
of
taxation
of
proprietors
even
without
the
excess-profits
tax.

just

to
make
the

somehow,
Belieye

it

It's
an

hundreds

literally
plowing
their

Speeding
through

rough

and
excitement.

putting
on.
You
almost
have
to
wait
till
it's
over
to
know
what
you've
seen.
I
can
tell
you
it
was
a
great
matter
of
pride
to
us,
in
our
General
Motors
Oshawa-built
utility
truck,
to
be
able
to
hold
our
own
against
all-comers.
It
was
in

that
we
brought
back
the
world's
first
sound
picture
of
fighting
in

they'd
just
as
