McGeary Says Tax
Main. State Probtem
Dr. M. Nelson McGeary, professor of political science,
said Tuesday night that four big problems, including enough
revenue and how to raise it, loom before ihe General As
sembly in its next session.
| Dr. McGeary, in a speech before the Intercollegiate Con
ference on Government, said the other tnree problems were
the low debt limit, a Civil Service'

was elected on a platform of no|

• Dr. McGeary suggested passing‘Players Nov. 30 to Jan. 12’ut Cen
a constitutional amendment per-ltre Stage
mitting a graduated income tax.'
Another acute problem, he said,
is posed by the low debt limits,
allowed by the present state con-1
stitution, which he said prohibits
the state from exceeding $1 mil
lion. With a state budget of about
$8 billion this limit is “ridicu-i
lously low,” Dr. McGeary said. !
State Establishes Authorities
The state circumvents this law
by establishing state authorities
such as the turnpike authority,
which can borrow large sums of
money, he said. j
Legislative steps of increasing,
the debt limit should be taken,
he said
Also sure to be an issue, in his
opinion, is the lack of a Civil
Service system for three-quarters'
of the state’s employees. ’ |
“In Pennsylvania we are in a,
serious condition concerning pro-',

Since there is no future through j
the patronage system "now in ef-|

Restricted Absentee Ballots ]
Pennsylvania has no absentee
ballot system except for service- 1
men or hospitalized veterans, he)
said. To enable such individuals ;
as students or businessmen away!
from home to vote, he suggested!
ithe passing of a constitutional,
amendment. j
Dr. McGeary’s talk was to give!

By DICK FISHER
Through the
Looking Glass
Have you recovered yet?
What a hectic weekend! Never
saw so many belted backs be
fore! Guess that’s real Ivy
League!?
Cards. Cards, Cards . . .
Did you thank your date for
a positively scrumptious week
end? You didn’t?—Well, don't
worry, Ethel has just the per
fect epilogue to a wonderful
time, in the form of Handcraft
greeting cards. One of them
has a suave, sophisticated cat
with the caption, “It’s been
purr-feet,” or else the one with
“Martinis do that to me!’’,
would be just right.
Did you have a “slight” dis
agreement—“ Lover come back
to me,” will fill the bill, or
“I said I’m sorry.” These are
just a few of the literally mil
lions of sizes, shapes, and
styles. Ranging in price from
ten to fifty cents, (for extra
special ones), they are very
economical and will fit anv oc
casion from births to birthdays
or from weddings to bon voy
ages.
. . . and more cards
Talking of cards, Ethel’s
Christmas cards are beautiful.
I know it's only October, but
time really flies when you start
taking blue books. Before you
know it. it'll be that time again.
Why not go to Ethel’s now, in
stead of at the last minute.
Take your time and look over
a positively enjoyable week
all the unique patterns and
a box. For that personal touch
why not have your name print
ed on them? In Ethel’s Christ
mas card shop there are orig
inal and complete catalogues of
these cards. Pick out a few of
them and order now. Don't
wait 'til the night before
Christmas.
Baubles, Bangles ...
Does that new sport dress
need just the right touch, a
glittering pin or earrings?
What about last year’s black
wool? Copper, brass or pewter
are just what you need. Ethel
has a full selection of the
latest, most exotic metal jew
elry imaginable. From a single
pin to a bracelet overflowing
with foreign coins, the right
“finishing touch” is there for
you. At prices from $1.65. P.S.
Copper and Loden Green look
beautiful together.
