Proposes Big Slashes in Bills
for Appropriation to
Army and Navy
OPPOSES ATTEMPT TO
REDUCE WAR DEBT NOW
Predicts that People Are Now
Looking to Congress for
Speedy Relief
(By United Press)

Washington, Dec. 16. (By Herbert
Walker )-Taxes can be reduced dur
ing 1921 if congress cuts down gov
eminent expenses, according to re-
publican leader Frank Mondell in 4
statement today. He opposed the
claims OF Secretary of Treasurer
Houston that government resources
must be kept under four billions an
nually for at least two years. He
also opposed the attempt to reduce
the war debt heavily during the next
two years, asserting that the nation
has already paid "A per cent Of its
war bill il the loans to the allies are
not considered.
Victory notes totalling about $4,-
100000 maturing May 20, 1928,
cannot be paid without increasing
taxes and should be refunded into
long term obligations, he said, adding
that even with taxes reduced it will
not be possible thru strict economy
to substantially cut down the floating
certificates Of Indebtedness and war
savings stamps.
Mondell is understood to have out
lined the general views of repub-
lican leaders and strong efforts to
frame the financial views of the peo-
pie along these lines, and he proposed
thai \ general agreement has been
rea ned to make big slashes in appro-
priA!inn bills which Mondell said is
ess'l'lia' to any tax reduction. The
lar&c~' reductions will be made in
army. navy and sundry civil appro-
priations bill. for which sums total
ing 935 millions in excess of current
appropriations have been submitted.
Mondell predicted that the people
are tired of anonymous federal expen-
ditures and they are tired Of the tax
burdens and they are looking to con-
gress for relief and we shall not dis
appoint them.

PROPOSED KlTCHlE ROAD
T0BE BEAUTIFUL DRIVE
Will Make Excellent Hunting
and Fishing Grounds
More Accessible

The prospective road to the Kitchie
country has promise of being the
most beautiful drive out of the city
of Bemidji: The proposed road will
leave the Bemidji-Cass Lake highway
at point south of Swenson Lake,
giving a glimpse of that beautiful
lake, and turning north will traverse
three miles of the western shore of
Lake Andrusa, affording most init
mate view of the wooded shoreline
of that picturesque body of water.
Turning to the east, around the upper
end of Andrusa, the wide expanse of
Big lake comes in view and its shore
is followed at varying distances for
nearly three miles, the road approach
ing at one place to within a few rods
of the water and atfording a full
view of the lake to the north end,
more than three miles away.
The road then fairly skirts the edge
of Ten lake and Buck lake, each but
a short distance to the right. At the
Turtle river the thoroughfare be-
tween Big and Little Rice lakes is
crossed and the road then borders
Kitchie lake, giving frequent glimpses
of this lovely quiet water.
Close to Kitchie's shore the road
connects with the Scenic highway
running between Cass Lake and
Blackjack and the drive may be con-
tinued south through the big pines of
the forest reserve or north to cedar
bordered Moose lake or the Pimush
lakes and Twin lakes, Turtle lake and
back to Bemidji past the golf links
and the north end Of Lake Bemidji.
Surely, the Kitchie road will be a
favorite with the summer tourist and
a fascinating addition to the many
attractions OF southern Beltrami. Not
the least feature of this road will be
the new and excellent fishing and
hunting grounds made easily Access
sible from Bemidji for the first time.

SALVATION ARMY
LEADER GIVES TALK
Open House Will Be Held at
Association Rooms On
New Years Day i

A delegation representing the ST.
tiers on the land contiguous to Red
Lake waited on the Bemidji Civic and
Commerce association yesterday A.
ternoon at its regular noon luncheon
to present to the Association the mat
ter Of adequate drainage on their
lands and other londs which empty
into Red Like by means of lowering
of the level Of Red Lake. John Nor
rison, president OF the Chippewa
Council, Of Red Lake, presented tho
matter to tho Association and after
considerable discussion a resolution
was passed by the Association plac-
ing it on record as favoring the low
ering OF Red Lake to safe level
to prevent flooding Of the lands In
question. The resolution Is to be for
warded to congressman at Washing
tion as action on the flood control bill
will be taken at the next sessin OF
congress.
Colonel William Barker, chief ex-
ecutive officer Of the northern divi-
sion Of the Salvation Army, addressed
the Aassociation on the changed cofI-
dition brought about by the war
with regard to the social conditions
and life in our nation and dwelt
briefly on the local work pointing
out that a project had been UNDER
taken in Bemidji with regard to tho
acquiring of a building In. which to
carry on the activities of the Army.
Some misunderstanding with, regard
to the campaign put on year ago
in behalf of a building for the Army
was cleared up by w. L. Brooks who
stated that the committees soliciting
left the impression on donators that
the total amount contributed was
for the building fund whereas the
local work was also to receive its sup
port from a portion of the fund. This
fact was not pointed out at the time
the first subscriptions we're taken.
The Association will hold open
house New Years Day from $3.50 un-
til six o'clock in the afternoon. It
is desired that every member come
to the Association rooms at some time
during the afternoon and bring his
friends with him. II. l.. Huffman was
appointed chairman Of the entertain
ment committee and 1t is expected
that as on previous occasions this
will be a largely attended function.
The American Legion advised that
1t would sponsor the Community
tree this year owing to tho
fact that the organization which had
handled the matter, the
Queen Esther society, felt that they
would like to have larger organiza-
ton then theirs undertake the work.
The luncheon was largely attended
and will be the last meeting to be
held until after the holidays.

De VALERA CLAIMS HE
NEEDS NO PASSPORT
Would Slip Out of United
States By Same Manner
AS He Came in
(By United Press)

Washington, Dec. lebanon De-
Valera, president of the Irish repub-
lie, intimated today that when he was
ready to return to Ireland he would
slip out of the United States without
a passport, just as he came in. He
said that he did not ask Lloyd
Georges consent when he left Ire
land and he would not ask his con-
sent before going back.
This comment by DeValera was
given out in Irish headquarters. De-
Valera himself failed to appear and
it was explained he was i'll. Attaches
of the headquarters here said that
his suite at the hotel had been given
up and while Sim Fein officers said
ne was enroute to the Pacific coast,
officials in Washington said he was
in New York. This may arouse the
report that he has started back to
Ireland.

CURTISSC0RES
WIN OVER MILO
Now Stands i'm Direct Line to
Take on y. s. Middle
weight Champion

Displaying unusual craftsmanship,
l.. C.. Curtis, Bemidji middleweight
wrestler, defeated Jack Milo of Min
neapolis, claimant Of the Greek mid
dleweight champion Of the world, at
the Armory last evening.
Curtis was given the first fall in
about Is minutes, but to show Milo,
who objected to the decision, that
he was clean sportsman, he waived
the referees decision and would not
take the fall. In another Is minutes
Curtis secured as near fall as was
the first, but since he did not take the
first, this was not called.
Milo had Curtis in bad way at the
end Of 81 minutes and Referee Pete
Edd gave him the fall, which he glad
ly took. This fall, Curtis claims, was
no more fall than either of the two
positions in which he had Milo pre-
viously. Nevertheless he was game
again and quietly abided by the de-
cision. Milo showed himself to be
much less sportsman than Curtis
when he took this fall, and this fact
irritated Curtis to the point of VOW
ing speedy vengeance upon return
ing to the mat for the second fall.
Upon second appearance Curtis i'm
mediately took the aggressive, which
he had maintained throughout the ma
jority Of the first period, and floored
Milo in the first few seconds. In
half minute he had secured wrist
lock on Mio's right arm bringing his
shoulders to the mat squarely in just
one minute after time was called. In
doing this, Curtis injured Milo's arm
so badly that Milo was unable to re-
turn for the third fall, thereby for
feiting the third to Curtis.
The Creeks manager has issued a
challenge to meet Curtis again at any
time, and Joe Morris, Curtis man.
ager, says he will probably be given
another opportunity to find out that
the Bemidji wrestler is the better
man. Curtis real ability was shown
when he entered the match for the
second fall, determined to show the
Greek what real wrestling meant to
him.
Morris is now planning tour of
Iowa where he will matsh Curtis
with some of the best men in the
game, preparatory to meeting Par
cult, United States middleweight
champion, within the next six months.
Parcutt has long ago recognized Cur
It's ability by issuing him challenge
for a match. The challenge will soon
be accepted, says Manager Morris.
Curtis is now in direct line for title,
although he has thus far made no
claims to championship, though he
has always been a winner.
William King of Bemidji and
Charlie Lainen of Minneapolis staged
an interesting preliminary match
which terminated in draw, although
had it been to the finish, the Bemidji
boy was the favorite. Clarence Cur
tbs and Young Johnson, both of this
city, made a close match which fur
nished good entertainment as a pre-
liminary. Neither secured a fall.
Harold Curtis and Gene Conan, mo
squito" weights, staged clever
match as a side issue to entertain the
early fans.
The management is to be COM
mended for the manner in which the
matches were conducted. A we'll sat
isfed crowd of approximately 300
was in attendance.
