E
Tax Tima
Sir: This is the time of year
when all Americana, especially
those la toe lower Income brac
kets become conscious of the fact
that the money they earn is really
not theirs to keep. Only about
W\> is theirs.
The balance ts distributed all
over the world by the self ap
pointed monitors who feel that
they know what is oest for the
proletarian slaves, and if the slav
es never offer any protest the
monitors become bolder. Soon
well all be working two extra
days to support their greed in
stead of the present one day. I
refer to the income tax, of course.
Not too many people are aware
that six states have voted to peti
tion Congress to offer an Amend
ment to the Constitution which
would abolish this evil institution
known as the income tax and
that other states are expected to
follow site shortly. You can help
BROOKLYN
QU6BN5
make New York the seventh
state.
Two resolutions, presently being
considered by the N.Y. Legisla
ture would have chia effect. These
are Senate Resolution N. 15, by
Sen. E. O. Bush and Assembly
Resolution Ne. 46 by Assembly
man Wilson Van Duzer.
A letter to your State Senator
and Assemblyman urging action
upon and approval of these Reso
lutions would be a striking blow
for your own economic freedom.
Harvey Crumhorn
Brooklyn, N.Y.
NAACP Credited
Dear Sir: The New York Am
sterdam News of March 2, 1963,
carried a news story about the
liberation of J. C. Tannehill, a
victim of 36 years imprisonment
in Alabama’s Kilby Prison, with
trial or confession, and of his
deliverance from further cruelty
by the granting of a writ of Ha
beas Corpus by Justice Hyman
Barshay of the New York State
Supreme Court. Unfortunately the
press release upon which your
news story was based failed to
credit the Brooklyn Branch of
the N.A.A.C.P. and its secretary,
Mrs. Lucille Rose, with the dis
covery of J.C. Tannehill and the
injustice done to him by the Ala
bama authorities.
I wish to give public praise to
the Brooklyn Branch of the N.A.
A.C.P. for its timely action of this
important case. I also desire to
congratulate Mrs. Lucille Rose
for her recognition of Tannehill’s
plight and for referring it im
mediately to me in September,
1962. Were M not for the existence
of the Brooklyn Branch and its
alert leaders oriFTTwre victim of
southern injustice would probably
be spending the last days of his
life in the gloomy cell of an Ala
bama Jail, for a crime which he
did not commit.

Mr. Cariello pointed out that
when a new Southeast Queens
High School was included in the
current capital budget, it was
agreed that It could be reopened
to provide for additional North
east facility if Board of Educa
tion studies showed the need
existed.
Overloaded Classes
The study, Mr. Cariello told
the Mayor, revealed the urgent
need for the simultaneous con
struction of two new high
schools to relieve acute over
crowding. Academic high
schools in central and easterly
Queens now have the high en
rollment rate of 137 per cent
or an overload of about 11,500
pupils.
Queens youths also got further
attention from Cariello who gave
impetus to a program for ad
ditional Little League ballfields
He got the Dept. of Real Est
tate, Sanitation and Highways
to move quickly towards the
construction of two Little League
softball fields in a vacant city
lot bounded by Long Island Rail
road, Fleet Street and Thornton
Place, in Forest Hills.
Meanwhile following a tour of
the area. Cariello announced
that legislation was being intro
duced In Albany, to extend the
Shore Front Parkway from
Beach 74th St. to Beach 30th
St. with a connection to Seagirt
Blvd., in the Hammels-Arverne-
Far Rockaway area.
