Protests Grow Over IRS and FPC View on Electric Ad Deductions
The Internal Revenue Service and the Federal Power Commission face a wave of protest over rulings that certain electric company advertisements are not deductible business expenses. Elisha Hanson of the American Newspaper Publishers Association argued that taxation should not curb dissemination of information. He told a House committee that government power must not decide what ads best serve a private business. Representatives urged protecting private enterprise from overreach, noting urgent legislative issues for utilities and other firms. Editorial comment from the Ontario Argus-Observer stressed citizen apathy in controlling excess public spending and urged voting as a weapon to check government power. Local items report family visits, moves, and travels across Idaho and nearby states.

What The Operating Railroader Does Not Get
Operating railroaders earn an average wage of 262 dollars per hour and receive no night or Sunday overtime differential. They lack sick leave and fall outside workmen’s compensation laws. Disabled workers must sue civil courts for adjustments and compensation. No company expense account is provided while away from home, and workers pay all living costs during long separations. They are technically off-duty daily but must remain reachable by telephone 24 hours a day.
Railroads Brotherhoods Back Small Pay Raise Bid
The Railroads Brotherhoods plan to press basic demands in upcoming contract talks. A proposed 44 per cent hourly raise over three years and added safety provisions are on the table as the industry sees 230,000 layoffs since 1956 and a 400 per cent jump in accidents.
