Our Country T--C Right or Wrong

A GOOD IDEA'
This pay-as-you-go income tax plan before
congress is one of the best ideas ever to come
before that august body in the past hundred
years, as it will, if put into effect, give a big
boost to the morale of the nation.
To most people a debt is like a millstone
about their necks and sometimes is the cause
of great discouragement. Few of us realize
that we are constantly in debt to our gov-
ernment for a year's income taxes. After the
last quarter installment is paid we figure we
are all square with Uncle Samuel, but the
fact is that on January 1 we will again owe
thd entire tax due on this year's income.
During 1942 we have been paying on our
income for 1941. The June payment wiped
out half that obligation, but during that six
months we had incurred, another six month's
tax debt. As we paid off, a new debt steadily
accumulated. Now when 1943 rolls around we
