Ji'% PP&L Raises Objections to Federal Excise Taxes on Transportation Pennsylvania Power & Light Company raised objections this week to federal excise taxes on transportations of persons and property, cQaimmg that they cre ate an unfair burden on the Com pany’s customers as electric serv ice rates include the cost of these excise taxes. In a letter to Chairman Aime J. Forand of the House subcommittee on - excise taxes, Mr. Chas E. Oakes, PP&L president, asked the subcommit tee to recommend repeal of the wartime measure. Mr. Oakes’ let ter stated that the federal excise taxes had been effected during World War II largely to restrict non-essential civilian use of trans portation facilities and “are tnerefore no longer justifiable.” The utility executive also pointed out to the subcommittee chairman that the concept of a tax to restrict use of public transportation facilities is now contrary to the national interest and that, if anything, national de fense considerations today empha size a need for just the opposite. The defense of the nation, ac cording to Mr. Oakes, vitally de pends upon a financially strong system of railroads able to meet emergency demands for trans portation. Tax programs should therefore include incentives which permit America’s public trans portation systems to modernize and expand their facilities and be free of restraints which dis courage their use and thus weak en them. Furthermore, said Mr. Oakes, inasmuch as these federal excise taxes discourage the use of pub lic transportation they unfairly favor private transportation. He illustrated this by pointing out that, if private earners were geographically available to haul the nearly three million tons of coal used annually by the local utility and now transported by earners,/there would be .tax savings of $116,000 a year.

The utility president also voiced concern over the pyramiding ef fect of such excise taxes and their adverse effect on the ulti mate consumer. He pointed out that the purchaser of a "manu factured product may well be paying three or four federal ex cise transportation taxes in his final purchase. This could come about because of an initial ex cise tax on the transportation of raw materials, then excise taxes on transportation of component parts during manufacturing and, finally, excise taxes on the trans portation of the finished prod uct “This tax upon a tax is inequit able in its operation and infla tionary in its effect,” Mr. Oakes said, “and the Company submits that such inequitable tax pyramid ing should not be continued” Classified Advertising Rates Use This Handy Chart To Figure Your Cost Words (1) Issue (3)lssues 20 (Mm.) $l.OO $2 40 21 1.05 . 2 52 22 1 10 2 64 23 115 2.76 24 1 20 2 88 25 1.25 3.00 KEYED ADS '(Ads with ans wer coming to a Box Number, 7o Lancaster Farming): 25c addi tional.

M. cJ: } Medium Amount Of Marbling in Meat Favored A survey conducted by the Na tional Live Stock and Meat' Board indicates that most Am erican consumers like a medium: amount of marbling in the meat they purchase. Results of the sur vey were announced at the Board’s semi-annual meeting in Omaha recently. The study was conducted in connection with the Board’s educational meat exhibits at 17 fairs and livestock expositions, including the Ak-Star-Ben Live Stock Show in Omaha. Besides fairs in midwestern states, the poll was taken also in several southern states and in California. Farm people and city people, reached through the survey, were generally in agreement on their preferences. Fifty-seven per cent of the farm people and 55 per cent of the city people said they preferred a medium amount of marbling m meat. Less than 10 per cent of each group expressed a preference for either a large, amount 6f marbling or no marbl-, mg at all The remainder of those < participating in the survey ■ — > about 35 per cent said they > liked a little marbling m the . meat they eat. 1 In response to the question “How often do you serve vari ety meats? (liver, hearts, brains, tongues, etc,)” more than 32 per cent of the partici pants both city and farm replied "once a week”. Anoth er 31 per cent of the city peo ple and 25 per cent of the farm people said they serve variety meats less than once a month. The rest indicated that they had variety meats on their din ner tables an average of once or twice a month. 1 It was pointed out by the Board that because they are such a rich source of B vitamins, vari ety meats should be served “dt least once a week.
