THE MEASURES of aggre-
gate tax reduction, if a new7
plan now maturing within the
administration prevails, is not
going to be the amount of
the surplus, roughly around
$300,000,000 for next year,
but the amount of anticipat-
ed surplus which would be a-
vailable if business profits drop
10 to 15 per cent. Some high
Treasury men are coming to
the conclusion that safety re-
quires the government to fig-
ure on* a lower scale of pro-
fits for the next few years,
and a great deal of statistical
work has gone into this con-
clusion. It is the sort of con-
clusion that can not be ex-
plained 'publicly at this time,
however, while political em-
phasis is being laid on assur-
ance of continued prosperity.
Consequently the cue has been
given to leading Republican
members of Congress who have
charge of tax matters and they,
while not mentioning the pros-
pect of decline of business pro-
fits, are talking a good deal
about “caution,” preparing the
public mind. You should read
this background situation into
certain statements which we
understand will be forthcom-
ing soon.

If you are preparing to build a new home, or remodel dr makeb I * 3
extensive repairs, don’t make the mistake onthe\theory that the
cheapest lumber is the most economical to buy./,
If you will make inguiry among people who have had jexperienect
in building, you will find the unanimous opinion that tHe’besttimbef
in the beginning will avoid extra construction costs and expensive
repairslater. P, * .
! High grade lumber put into your home meads reducing the
repair bills of the future to the minimum. T
A sagging or squeaking floor, a leaking roof, cracked plaster, a s--
window that will not’clpse easily, a warped-door—these and other
troubles of the home owner are often the results of buying inferior
materials. /
These difficulties can be avoided if you buy dependable, uniform
lumber and other quality materials such as we have for sale at all ,3
times.
This will mean a home that is built permanently, and will not be.
constantly in need of annoying and costly repairs.
