N 1 v There is one good answer to that all-important question. It is this: Py getting government out of tax-exempt business-type activities which can and should be earned on by taxpaying private enterprise. ' * . Bills designed to do just that are now pending in both House and Senate. They: are known as the Anti-Govern ' ment Act, jand they would direct all the Federal agencies to get out land stay out of most business-type activities not . specifically authoried by statutes.? \ ' ^ In a lettjer to members urging support of these bills, the - President pf the Chamber of Commerce of Del Rio, Texas, said our free enterprise system depends on you and me. ; Its very life is being snuffed out by subsidized government . competition.” That is not an exaggeration- government has • gonea into business on a far greater scale than is generally .understood, and the cost to the taxpayers runs far into the - billions. C< ogress could do no greater service to the coounreverse that trend. try than tc framed in Grossly Misleading* The Pont Office Department has issued a new release, question-and-answer fashion, concerning postal^ leficits an $ prospective rate revisions. One question rea parcel post a big money loser for the Department, And Wouldn't an increase in this class of mail help solve' deficit” The answer given is: ‘‘No. Parcel post rates are by law so that this class of mail service pays its own way. That statement .has been described as “incorrect and grossly misleading” by a man who (knows—President A. L. Hammejll of the Railway Express Agency. And he backs his positioh up with an abundance of facts and figures. Tlife truth is, ajs Mr. Hammell shows, that parcel post has been a big monby loser, and its acumulated 1926-56 deficit totalad $1,2171486,822. Most of this loss-^- $903,841 651— occurred in the 1946-56 period. And the deficit figures do not include'certain indirect and other, losses which run into king-sized figures. , _ Mr. Hartnell states his case thus: “How would you like to have alcompetitor appear in your, line of business who Is furnished working capital without interest by the Federal government....who does not have to pay local state or Federal tixes of any kind....who does not have to be concerned with making a profit—who sets his prices below yours, not only by the1 amount thus saved, but at a level more that 15 per cent below the out-of-pocket costs, with Federal taxpayers making up that difference, too.” Finally, Mr. Hammell and his company are not alone in this. The' Hoover Commission, along with many other or! ganizations of-high repute, have pointed to the parcel post . deficit and called for rate schedules sufficent to meet all costs including the indirect costs. And that is exactly what should be done, despite the Post Office Department's “No” answer. ■ \ * | ’ WASHINGTON THEATRE 4 *• 2 Shows Nightly N SAT. SUN.

Here are the main oqps: \l Q. Can adults get polio? A. Tfiey can and they do. And it hits them harder than it hits children. Q. Are parents safe from polio if their children have been jvacrinatejl ? A No. Everybody has to get his own vaccination. A vacjcinated person, though protected against polio, can still carry the polio virus and infect the invaccinated. Q. Arc you safe if you ve had ope* shot? Two shots? A. Not as - safe as the vaccine can mkke* yoii. , <^ne sfiot is better than none. Two f shots are better than one. But for maximum protection you need at least three shots of Salk vaccine. Q. Is baby too youpg tp be vaccinated? A Last year babies one year old had tlte highest polio ■ attack rate of any age group. Next came children aged two. Sony health authorities recommend starting polio shots at two months. •Q. Where can you get Salk vaccine? A. From votir doctor or at lc-al vaccination clinic*. Start shots early to have full protection b( fore the next polio season. \ ■ • Lets,of people are afraid the. nc' t* war will be'fought in outer space.

When starting the engine, stand with your feet firmly planted in ' a safe place. 2. When operating, keep in sfepN with the mower without lagging iw-hind or letting it pull you. 3. Learn to disengage the dutch or stop the motor quickly. Shut off the motor whenever you leave the mower, even for a short period. 4. Don’t let children come close jwhen the mower is in Operation. 5. On inclines, be careful of your footing and balance. i "6. Before mowing the lawn, dear it of stones, wire and other debris. i 7 Don't use an electric mower . when the grass is wet. ! 8. Don’t reach under the deck, chain guards or belt guards. Never attempt to remove anything from the mower until the motor is completely stopped.

Parsons said ithat proof of age should be submitted for each per. son for whom henfitr are claimed whether* it is ja retired worker, his wife, widowj or children wider age 18."

THE DRIVER’S SEAT ' (• “Wait !” cried the dismayed old lady, as she hastened forward) and grasped the atm of the pleasant little man. “Pardon me, sir. You’* are headed straight into |that wall!" “Oh, uh. Why, thank you,” said Blinker McSquint. “It! was just looking for that door, somewhere here. You know, the office where you get iyour driver’s license renewed.”. He! peered at the old lady, -raised his hat politely,; and went on his wjay. Amiable McSquint, one ojF the three million! McGoo’s driving cars on our roads today, probably thinks everyone sees things as he -^oes. Probably he has no idea what a hazard he is as a driver not only to himself but to others on the road. Yet, it’s possible he'll get that license renewal. • Poor McSquint. Once behind the wheel, ninety per cent 'of all t fb<r decision* |te Will have to make will be based on what he sees. This raises the^oilective hair of persons concerned with highway safety, among them the California Optometric Association. At feast 3 million Americans are driving ajutos even though their vision k seriously impaired! according to Statistics compiled by the Amercari Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators. This group has three suggestions Because 25 per cent of all drivers have substandard eyesight and present eye tests seldom are sufficiently thorough, the Association: proposes: 1) That competent personnel should administer sight! tests .every time a driver applies for renewal of his license 2) ) That bigger-and. better signs should be usei*fl#all highway-hand streets; a,3r "That shape, color, and ,ordifTg'o?r*Il'traffic signs should be standardized, easily read, and1 understandable at first glance . Of coursie, not everyone is a , MqSquint. Yet even 20/20 drivers should not object to what optometrists recommend. Any easy-to.read sign with ai snappy, clear message is a boon to any driver. Standard-, izing the shape and color of signs advantages to all raohas obvious torists. Mc^quint was a long time in the license jrenewal office, but he go* what he wanted. But a!! McSquint’s.ludk wasn’t good. “Not so fast," said Officer McSquint, as he took out h}s traffic book. Mfnutes later the old ladyfemergd from the market. “You’re holding the ticket upside down,” she Says tq McSqiuint, who is sitting in his par. “My, my” she mutters. “Toojclose to the No Parking sign.” , [ ' J “I just didn’t see him in time,” says tylcSquint, thinking of the cop, but unconsciously uttering the after.collision remark.
