I’ve heard people who have party-line telephones (I
have one, too) complain about others on their line—say
they talk too much, or listen in, or interrupt.
But they don’t say that about me. No, sir! I figure if
you want other folks to do right by you, you’ve got to
do right by them. So I watch my telephoning. “Even
Stephen” is my motto. Keep the calls short and let the
other folks get in their share of talk.
It works, too! We never have any trouble /
on our party line. • . ' .,/*

12. Coordination of federal, state

13. Steady Improvement of the
tax structure and its details.
14. Drastic expenditure reduct-
ions that will permit moderate tax-
ation and retirement of the debt.
Some of these, including corpor-
ate and individual tax reductions,
should become effective in 1947,
Leeman contends. Others are ob-
viously long-rang projects.
The South Texas Chamber exe-
cutive quoted substantial accomp-
lishments claimed by the national
and cooperating groups during the
past year. As they requested, he
said, Congress:
1. Reduced the corporate income
tax rates. ; ■' "
2. Repealed t.he excess profits
tax. ' ' ■
3. Repealed capital stock and de-
clared value excess profits taxes.
4. Reduced the persohal income
tax.
5. Frozen social security tax rates
for another year.
*. Bought government corpora-
tions under Its control.
7. Reduced expenditures sub-
stantially. ' '

Texas Rank Second
In 4-H Enrollment
Texas ranks second only to Ala-
bama in the number of boys and
girls engaged in 4-H Club work,
'according to nation-wide figures
Just released by the United States
Department of Agriculture.
The census was based on club en-
rollment figures for 1945. Texas
had 100,820 Club members last year,
while Alabama was In first place
With 115,751. Mississippi’s 100,239
members placed a close third.
I^During 1945, 20.7 percent of all
Texas rural-farm youth were engag-
ed In 4-H Club projects. This per-
centage was based an the 1040 pop-
ulation census, however, so the
figure could be much higher or lpw-
er now. Texas club membership
in 1945 dropped slightlyfrom the
1944 figure, which was 103,294.
