KILLING THE GOOSE Owing to the loss of much freight and passenger traffic formerly enjoyed by the! railroads, through the competition of auto- | mobiles, buses, trucks and airplanes, a situation has been created which makes it increasingly difficult for the railways to meet operating expenses and maintain ef- ficient service. The disposition to increase ‘ their burdens by further adverse _legisla- | tion will, if persisted in, inevitably cause a partial or-complete breakdown of the na- | tion’s splendid railway structure. Federal, state and local governments are clamoring for more and more tax | money with which to meet their mounting H expenditures.. .This tax money must come i from solyent enterprises, not from those | which are bankrupt. As a recent writer j aptly says: “For the sake at least of our public revenues, let our governors and legislators and bureaus and all our host of material and spiritual pastors and masters give the hard-pressed agencies of commerce and} manufacture a much needed opportunity to attend unhindered to their own business for a while, and see if they can not im- prove their own condition and that of the whole country at the same time.” In the present economic cri the harassment of business and_ industry through oppressive taxation and regulation is another way to “kill the goose that lays the golden egg.

The simple mechanical details of cigarette manufacture are of surprising importance. Upon them depend the physical properties of the cigarette, such as weight, size, firmness, moisture-holding properties, uniformity of fill, uniformity of product—all of which have a far-reaching effect on the character of its combustion and the con- stituents of its smoke. In the manufacture of Lucky Strike Cigarettes all of these properties have been standardized with care for the perfection of A LIGHT SMOKE. é ——— Speaking of new public organizations how about the Veterans of Future * Wars and the Auxiliary Association of Mothers of Future Veterans, now demanding the due in 1965 and a free trip to Eu « Ladies who pluck their eyebrows to a thin line are warned by Dr. Bruckner of Berlin that many cases of inflammation of the eyes result from the practice.
