The new bill, he said, includes such a broad reduction of persona 'exemptions it would affect almost 7,000,000 individuals who never before paid direct taxes to the Government, and some 31,000,000 income tax returns would be filed in 1943 as against only 7,700,000 in 1940.

Instead of lying idle like Its companion metal gold, silver is likely to join with copper, lead and zinc and is helping the democracies in their struggle to win the war. Tons of the white .metal may be made available to industry to take the place of other metals which have become scarce during the current crisis. In many instances it is being used to replace copper, as it is a good conductor of electricity and various other vital uses. Under the plan silver is to be loaned by the treasury department to the war production board for the duration of the war. During its career silver has been the subject of more controversies both nationally, and internationally than any other metal. It has been "kicked about politically since it was demonitized In 1873, yet It has always come back to take its place In the sun. There are a few academic economists in the east who still believe that the western silver miner was plundering,(tM United States treasury- when- priees of from 64.5 to 77.57 an ounce were placed upon 1 . - the white metal. The hue and cry went up that the western silver bloc in congress put one over on their colleagues in congress. The facts are that the silver purchase act of 1934 made a nice profit for the treasury. Prices paid to the silver miner for his metal were about half of the $1.29 per ounce which the treasury department received when it became coinage. Since the silver purchase act, the stock of silver in the United States has been built up to 3,280,000,000 ounces. This huge stock of metal, together with the gold reserves, is one of the most comforting factors r in the thought of economy. This metallic base is one of the strongest Insurances against inflation and worthless money, A currency backed by the huge stock of silver and gold in the United States vaults will always be ot ' WALTER K.
