The income tax remained a proposition until the depression, when the government poured billions into pump priming projects of one kind or another.

We believe our present calendar should be revised for present day use. Write your Congressman today! Here is what the proposed calendar will do for the business men of America and their customers: 1. Every job is in a rush. Everyone wants his work yesterday. With this calendar, a customer can order his work on the 7th and have it delivered on the 3rd. 2. All customers want their jobs on Friday so there are two Fridays in every week. 3. There are seven extra days at the end of the month for those rushes. end-of-the-mo- bills to be paid There will be no have as there isn't any "first."
