One of its members, Edwin ' Vennard, a top official of the Edison Electric Institute, has reported on what the committee found. Russias electric power plants and related installations are good, he says, and there has been notable expansion in late years. However, to quote the Butte, Montana, Standard, he also says: The Soviets have one tremendous obstacle to surmount. They are running out of consumers. How can this be in a nation of more than 200 million people? The Standard explains: . . . Russian homes which have electricity have a single bulb hanging on a wire in the center of the room, much of the same as was the case in the United States 30 or 35 years ago. This single bulb represents the extent electric energy is consumed by the average home-ownein Russia Mr. Vennard was asked by a Russian how the problem of stimulating demand was solved in the United States. Mr. Vennard answered that it was largely a matter of adOh, vertising. To that the Russian said propaganda. And Mr. Vennard let it go at ... er that. This little true story pretty well demonstrates the differences in living standards under communism as compared to capitalism.

People buy every day. $1.6 BILLION OF TAX EVASION Government in business is socialism, and thats the long and short of the matter. A good many people seem to dislike using the word, but its the only one that gives a frank and true description. This country, its safe to say, has gone much farther along the socialistic road than most of its citizens realize. J. E. Corette, head of the Edison Electric Institute, has been making a series of highly informative talks on the subject in various parts of the country. He points out that there are more than 70 active government corporations whose assets d from $24 billion as recently as 1948 to $89.8 billion in 1957. And here he says: Where the government-operate- d business is in direct competition with a privately-owne- d taxpaying business, it ultimately destroys the taxpayer. In spite of greater efficiency, and economy of pri vate business, it cannot survive against tax free, interest-fre- e competition which does not have to make a profit or worry about the source of new money. The outstanding example of tax evasion is found in the governments electric power systems. According to Mr. Corette, these, along with escape more than $1.6 billion in taxes yearly. This is only slightly less than the $1.8 billion which investor-owned utilities pay in taxes. It is clear, Mr. Corette says, that the tax escape of this magnitude severly impairs the nations tax structure and adds heavily to the taxes paid by the remaining business and other taxpayers. If we ever needed increased tax revenues, we need them now, in this deficit-plague- d era. And the fair and logical way to get them is to put government business on the same tax footing as private business.

Since then the Legions National Commander has been repeatedly 'asked: Why was it necessary to reiterate a confidence in the FBI and Mr. Hoover shared by every loyal American ? Here is the answer: There are some individuals in this country and certain publications determined to discredit the FBI and its Director . . . That a deliberate smear Hoover and the FBI campaign, similar to the Communist Partys unsuccessful efforts of 1940, has been launched is no mere supposition. He then cited several specific examples including a publication branded by a Senate as the organ of a communist front organization. The truth is that the FBI, under Mr. Hoover, has gone to every length to respect and defend the rights and freedoms laid down by the Constitution. At the same time, it has done an absolutely invaluable work in exposing the communist conspiracy. A successful smear campaign,, which undermined public faith in this great organization, would perform yeoman service for the Kremlin, it agents, and its followers.
