If his property tax were it would cost him an additional $42. Needless 16 say, he the sales tax boost to the other. A But he had another comment which makes plenty of sense and which I haven't yet even heard mentioned by legislators in Topeka. He said: "I'd rather take a boost in the sales lax even if it cost me as much or more than a boost in properly tax, because 1 have some control over that. 11 limes get tough, I can quit spending and the sales tax goes down accordingly.

If I don't have money to spend, 1 have no tax lo pay. "Bui I have no control over the property lax. It stays just the same whether prices are high or low, whether I'm making money or going in the hole. That's the tax that really hurts when a couple of bad years come along in a i'ow."

At this juncture, Mrs. Nearing, in a booth sealed off from Van Doren, exercised a program option and stopped the game while she was ahead 17-10. It was a sheer guess on her part, for she had no knowledge ol what 'questions Van Doren was asked or answered. She said she just operated on a hunch, a right one as il turned out. "All hail lo the new champion," Van Doren said with a smile as he cxleajied congratulations.

"I'm sure gonna have a wonderful lime listening lo this show next week," he said, referring lo the strain he had undergone in 'past weeks on the program.

Eisenhower can be said lo have put up a vigorous fight for his federal aid to education program last year. This year maybe it will 'be different. Over the weekend Folsom ripped into the U.

The Chamber argue.s that there is no emergency, and that the Eisenhower program is "unwise and unnecessary." It suggested federal aid for classroom-building is just a first step toward government control of education.
