URGES REMOVAL OF
EXCESS PROFITS TAX
Secretary Houston Asks More
Equal Distribution Of Tax
Burden.

Washington.-More equitable and
lust distribution of the four billion dol
lar tax burden which the American
people must bear for at least four
more years, was recommended to con-
gress Thursday by Secretary Houston,
who in his annual report submitted
comprehensive scheme of tax revision.
'Revision of taxes should be effect
ed" Mr. Houston wrote congress.
"There can and should be better dis
tribution of the tax burden. Unwise
taxes should be eliminated. But any
scheme which would affect this fis-
cal year to yield for several years to
come less than $4,000, 100000 would be
incompatible with safety and sound
finance. And the country should face
the fact that the present taxes even
may not in the future be relied upon
to yield the needed revenue
The secretary of the treasury said
the excess profits tax should be re-
pealed and must, of course, be replac-
ed. He said he believed it should be
replaced in large part by some form
of corporation profits tax"
Reduction of the higher groups of
the income surtaxes, accompanied by
increasing in the lower income surtax
rates also was suggested by the Sec
rotary, who asked that congress CON
slider such a general revision, with q
reduction to a maximum rate lower
than that contained in the present
law, provided acceptable new taxes of
equal yield can be found.
The secretary said the plain fact
was that the present rates, which are
as high as per cent, could not be sue
lcessfully collected and that "the ef-
fective way to tax the rich is to adopt
rates that do not force investment in
tax-exempt securities"
| Mr.. Houston suggests number of
sources of revenue which could be
tapped and others which could be re-
vised to make up for the loss of reve-
nue. occasioned by the changes he
recommended.

PLAN TO REDUCE
COTTON ACREAGE
Southern Bankers, Merchants
and Farmers Adopt
Plan for 1921.

Memphis, Tenn-After so per cent
in cotton production in 1871 and re-
duction in the acreage planted TO one
third of that of the total acreage IN
cultivation was agreed upon at the
conference Thursday of Southern
bankers. merchants and farmers, to
make the plan effective machinery
was set in motion to restrict whatever
necessary credits to individual farm
ers, merchants, factors, or banks I'M
willing to agree to the acreage reduc-
ton plans.
The plan embodied in the report OF
the acreage reduction committee was
adopted by a practically unanimous
vote of the conference. 1t includes
the formation of an organization IN
every township in the cotton states to
secure the support of the growers, and
their adherence to pledges of reduc-
ton.
Organization work pledged by the
bankers will begin Immediately and
under the provisions of the plan Will
be practically complete by January ID
next.
The resolutions adopted by the con-
ference call on the banker and credit
merchants in the cotton states Ito
use the utmost endeavor to bring
about the enforcement of a cotton
acreage reduction by refusing to adj
vance in money to any one interested
in farming of any kind who does not
plan enough food and feed crops for
their owners.
Land owners are asked to share in
whatever crops may be raised on his
lands on a percentage basis and not
require any fixed sum of money or
pounds of cotton for rent.
A system of bonded warehouses for
cotton and a classification of cotton
that will be ample to protect it from
weather damage and make it safe col
lateral on which to borrow money was
| Endorsed.
A system of cooperative marketing
of crops was favored and the work of
the American Cotton Association in
an effort to stabilize the price of cot
ton, bring about a reduction of acre
age, improve marketing methods, and,
in the educational campaign for di-
versification of crops was approved.

LEAVES WATER TO TAKE PREY
How the Moray, Tropical Fish, Pur-
sues the Crab Which II Is
Seeking for Food.

University OF Iowa scientists on a
recent expedition 10 Barbados and
Antigua in the tropical Atlantic found
fish which voluntarily left the water
IN pursuit of food, following its prey
across rocky or sandy beaches.
This fish, the moray, has not the
slightest fear OF human beings With
bait tied TO piece Of string members
of the Iowa party led the moray on
and on across the beach, all crowding
about the fish TO watch the experiment.
The moray followed as far as a hun
dred feet or more from the water,
wriggling across the rock and finally
being permitted TO capture the crab
used as bait. Then the fish turned
quickly and, by following the slope Of
the shore soon found it's way back to
the water.
1t Is a common sight where the mo-
ray are plentiful to find them chasing
crabs and other food up the crevices
In the rocks. leaving the water with
out the slightest fear The moray Is
an extremely voracious fish with big
mouth and long. pointed teeth, and
when its jaw once closes on It's victim
the catch is sure.
