And the school district, town and
county taxes also raised. The news
might as well be broken at once for
in these days of high prices that
haven't yet come down the increasing
altitude of the tax levy on all sides
is tremendous problem
The commissioners of Gunnison
county, Messrs. Whalen. Sullivan and
Knowles, met Monday to wrestle with
the matter, and discovered first that
state taxes had gone up % per cent,
namely from 3.i7 mills levy to 4.35.
Part of this was due to the road bond
issues and school levies voted by the
people, and part TO the State Univer-
sity hospital in Denver, Shoup's army
and the new armories over the state
to house the army.
The town levy Of Gunnison was al
SO certified by the city council as in
creased from IL to II mills. Two
years ago Gunnison had the lowest
tax levy in Colorado. one of only z
mills. Due to increased cost of labor
and supplies, and the necessities Of
street repair, this was increased last
year to II mills. 1t was hoped that
the present council could hold it at

Somehow we can't help believ-
ing that if the United States had
ratified the peace treaty almost a
year ago, and resumed trade rela-
tons with all the countries on the
other side, that conditions would
have been such that the Kentucky
tobacco men would have received

course, we may be wrong, bat the

of gradual liquidation.
Holdings of bills purchased In open

s234.SO0, 900 on January to s1s,4o0,o0O

decline reflects the reduction in the sup
ply of bankers acceptances based on
foreign trade transactions and the
larger demand for this class of paper
by the commercial and savings banks,
as we'll as corporate and individual In
vestors caused by the advance of short

gust the Federal Reserve bank holdings
of these bills have shown some increase.
while during the last MONTH of the year
there has taken place a rapid accumu-

the Federal Reserve banks due to the
relatively high call money rates III the
