den. The proposals of the Hoover commission for economy in government should be put into effect imâ€" â€"mediately. Mr. Truman alone does not bear the reâ€" sponsibility for this. It is shared by every senator and representative, Republican or Democrat: Any 6f.them â€"â€"who sign a bill providing for income tax increases beâ€" fore they have voted to put the Hoover report in operâ€" ation should be retired at the next election, and that goes for Robert Taft of Ohio (who. we think would make a good president) as‘ well as ‘Scott Lucas of lllinois (who we think would make a good private citâ€" izen).

Alyne Dumas Lee,â€"soprano, and Ruth Slater, contralto, soloists, along with William . Steinverg, guest conductor, received. enthuâ€" siastic applause for a splendid perâ€" formance. Mrs. Lee is the recent winner of the Michael Memorial Music award and Miss Slater is a wellâ€"known concert and radio Up to now, the best suggestion for arriving at a solution to the problem that we have heard, has come from E. L. Gilroy, chairman of the Highland Park Traffic Commission. Mr. Gilroy suggests that the council‘s representatives arrange a meeting with North Western officials and invite them to compare the costs of adequate protection with the costs of settlements that have been made for loss of life and property damage over the past several years. It has beenbroadlyintimatedinmmequarterst.hqtinview of the coolness with which previous pleas for protecâ€" tion have been received, that:the North Western isn‘t too much interested in saving lives. We doubt that this is completely true, but we think that the suggested cost comparison might give impetus to any such deâ€" sire, however latent. > * MORE TAXES . f z Ravinia audiences this season haven‘t heard a finer. program than the one presented on Tuesâ€" Mr. Truman and Congress will soon raise our taxes.

However, the lack of it has been paid for in blood. _ [ Vol. No. 39; No. 22 The Highlanb Park Press | proximately twenty couples.
