TO FIGHT INFLATION The interesting argument is made that ‘ tax reduction is one of the best means of ~ . heading off inflation. ' ‘Phe net result of tax reduction will be to leave more money in the hands of purchasers, If increasing the supply of money available for spending is likely to diminish the danger of disastrous infla- ,ttion, the economists might as well start writing some new books on the subject. The idea runs counter to the general admission. that our huge national debt is inflationary. It is pointed out that the «part of the indebtedness held by banks — ‘and lending companies serves to increase the amount of credit available. It looks as if the best way to hit infla- tion is to ‘give it a double-barreled load. Maintain present taxes, thus siphoning off purchasing power from individual and corporate taxpayers and, at the same time, reduce the nationa] debt, thus siphoning *. off some of the foundation upon which credit is based. faate i aa if DEATH,IN PARKED AUTOMOBILES ® 2 It might be advisable to call attention to the unfortunate death of a number of ».couples in various states of the Union as * a result of gas escaping from the exhaust “of a parked automobile. 2 The fact that young people, and some 5 older persons, have developed the habit of parking their vehicles alongside the “highway has not escaped general notice. 2 Apparently, however, some of the couples - fail to take cognizance of the danger that " exists from carbon monoxide gas. Every once in a while, the press asso- fiations tell us of a couple found dead in a closed car, parked off the beaten high- way. The gas is insidious, Aaving no odor, and it creeps upon its victims unawares. Consequently, we advise couples who must park along the’ roadside, without any bearing on the propriety of such a prac- tice, to be on the alert to prevent death from overtaking them, ~ + a a nl eee The Koran concedes four wives to a man.

Take the tree down as soon as needles start falling. Do not place room decorations around chairs or sofas where people may smoke. It is preferable to have them near ceiling level. These rules are equally vital for churches, clubs, and other places of holi- day assembly. In addition, care must be taken that trees or other decorations do not interfere with either regular or em- ergency exits. So—remember that a Merry Christ- mas must also be a Safe Christmas.
