Still, it is a fair guess that the dream of making six million after taxes is one which at least a few prospectors would put ahead of owning such a remarkable remark-able burro. There aren't many prospectors who cash In for plural millions. With Charley Steen at the top of the list, Vernon Pick is probably second, in recent years. Now, if you were to take In six million dollars by earning it, or receiving it as a salary, or as a share of gate receipts, in the way the Uprated Joe Louis made his big money, you would have to pay most of it to the government In taxes. You would have to make something like sixty million in order to have six million left. But where the gain is from sale of property or securities, the capital gains tax applies, and the government govern-ment units grab "only" about one third altogether. So, having sold his mine, named the Delta Uranium Mine, for some thing over nine million, Vernon Pick was able to retain, after taxes, some six million dollars And that is a rare accomplishment in this socialistic day and age, when the tenor of opinion is that such money will serve society better if the government spends it than if individual people do. But just suppose you had made a strike, and it had proved out, and you had sold it to the Wall Streeters, paid your income taxes in full, and had six million dollars in cold cash to play with! What would do? Some people would squander It fast Others would decide to double It, and maybe lose it In speculations outside their field Others might just put it In a lot of savings accounts and withdraw whatever they needed to live on, without regard for possibilities of speculation or Investment. If invested in good 5 stocks, it would bring in $300,000 a year and most of that, being "regular would bring in $180,000 a year, wholly free of federal Income tax.

He received so many requests re-quests for charity that he decided his six million wouldn't make a dent in them, to he Is going to keep it. He found his six million wouldn't "measure much" against the needs for college budgets, which had asked for some money; but It was quite a bit for one man. ... What Pick has done is to build a "nice, comfortable home", atop a scenic knoll at Saratoga, Calif.. for $80,000. and near It an electronics elect-ronics and geology laboratory for $250,000.

But of all In prospect, the one I most want to see is, not the Ten Commandments, Com-mandments, which I consider a vulgar exploitation of religious faith on the part of Cecil B. de Mille, but The Spirit Of Saint Iouls, in which James Stewart plays the part of Lindbergh, the boy who, in 1927, in one great 33 hour flight, turned America's eyes I to the skies.
