What Does Stalin Want?
Are we interested in knowing how wc may please Stalin?
In knowing what he wants us to do.7 As a people, intentionally
or not, we manage to do most oi' these things.
He is pleased with any evidence of disunity. Each time
we separate into groups, and stand upon the rights of any
particular group, we are pleasing Stalin. For it was by the
aid of sucli groupings that he separated the people of the
nations enslaved behind the Iron Curtain.
He is pleased when we are complacent. A complacent
people is a lazy people, slow to action, rocking away too comfortably to notice the tornado until it is upon them. We
please Stalin with our over-confidence, with our feeling that
we ca,n't be conquered.
He is pleased when we are cynically critical of those
whom we ourselves have chosen to represent us. Stalin knows
that the best way to befuddle a leader is to keep criticising
him. The best way to slow up action is to make a leader take
off time to explain. We halt the wheels of progress when we
pause to find fault or complain.
He is pleased when we stop to bargain,. Those who won't
join in action for tho common good until they have "theirs"—
whether "theirs" be profits, wages, preferential treatment,
or special advantages—are perfect followers of Stalin—millstones around the neck of the .nation—stumbling blocks in its
path.
lie is pleased when we allow hatreds to sway us, when
we permit old resentments, fancied wrongs, unbiased prejudices to dominate our actions, setting class agains class, race
against race, creed against creed. Stalin knows how this saps
a nation's strength.
He is pleased when we lack faith—when we allow the
undercurrent of distrust to bog down our spirits, when we
lose sight of the high goal before us. Stalin knows that a
nation whose ideal is undermined, by doubt is half conquered.
These are the ways in which we can please Stalin. But—
is this what we want to do?

Quartet will furnish part of the
evening's  ■entertainment.
New officers to he installed include, Smith Witter as prcsidcut
and Dale Gerber as vice president;
the Board of Governors includes,
Ray Schaffsr, Paul Sigeliiii.ier,
Wayne Lear. Gordon Stumpf and
Orlin \Vyant.

Governor Iloltz, Past Governor
Dalies and President McCullough
of the Youngstown club were present. Mr. Harold Royer representative of "Redwood''' presented a
very interesting- film on the lumber
industry and the Redwood Forests.
Tax the Untaxed
A Denver Post columnist, P.nice Gustin, recently wrote
on the wartime excise taxes which are still in effect, he said,
"Secretary Snyder's suggestion for repeal o.f the 20 per cent
tax on baby oils, powders, and lotions is fine. Cutting the 20
per cent tax on furs, luggage, handbags, jewelry and cosmetics to 10 percent would be a big help. So would repeal of
the three percent tax on freight charges, cutting the 25 per
cent tax on long distance telephone calls to 15 percent* a.nd
reducing the 15 percent Lax on railroad, bus and airline tickets
to 10 percent. But more relief should be given.
"Certainly the transportation tax should be repealed . . .
Any punitive tax on business in peace time is abhorrent. The
15 per cent tax on local telephone service and the 20 percent
tax on theatre tickets should be repealed, also..
"Secretary Snyder also proposed that the corporation tax
of 38 percent be boosted to 42 percent on business income in
excess of $25,000. That would be an economic crime. If revenue lost through repeal or reduction of excise taxes must
be provided, the way fo get it is by TAKINC THE UNTAXED! Take away the exemptions of the giant co-ops, educational institutions and other organizations which are operating business and industrial enterprises on a tax-free basis
in competition with heavily taxed private owned business."
The excise taxes are an unjust and unnecessary burden
on every consumer, every retailer, and on workers and producers in many important fields, deduction in percentages
would be only a halfway measure—total repeal is the proper
action. The sooner we get rid of them, the better off the
country will be.

THE SEVEN SISTERS
TO BE GIVEN AT
JACKSON APRIL 28
Jackson Township Band parents
and the P.T.A. will present a 3
act comedv "The Seven Sisters,"
Friday, April 2Xth at 8 p.m. in
school auditorium. Mrs. P. R. Baird
is :dir3cting the cast of local talent.
Time is running out—and so is coal! Congress has provided a great deal of yakkety-yak this session but not a
single major bill has been passedi. Everyone would like to see
a little action—on the coal front! •
Recent events—whatever the future may bring—certainly pounds home the need for action with volcanic force.
Tt is clear that the coal miners think nothing of defying the
government, the courts, the law, and the security of the
country. These are the inevitable fruits of the union's long
established tactics of disruption, economic dictatorship; and
callous disregard of the public interest.
In any upheaval such as this, changing day by day events
tend to obscure the basic issue. The New York World-Tele
gram qamo to the point when it said, "The fact is that the
problem of national emergency strikes remains unsolved.
And, in every thinking person's mind is the same thought—
it will not be solved until Congress .deals with, it at its root in
the monopoly power of unions to place their own activities
above national welfare, health and safety."
That is the big thing, whether or not the Taft-Hartley
law is repealed. One union has virtual monopoly over all coal
labor. Every miner must belong to it, pay dues to it, and obey
its orders, or he can't work. So longvas such a rmonoply exists
the whole country will be af the .none-too-tender mercies of
this small, infinitely powerful group.
Don't let our Congressmen forget this and place it on
the shelf in Committee until another.crisis in-the-coal situation arises,
