Days Dealings in Bonds
The Market

Rising strength in the first Liberty
loan Sla per cent bonds, the tax-ex
empt issue, stood out yesterday as the
most striking development in the mar,
ket in listed bonds. They advanced
from 1924 to o274 and closed Mt 92.52,
on comparatively light dealings. The
movement was associated with the ac-
tion of the Senate committee in report,
ing out tax revision bill which would
give wealthy taxpayers no more relief
than that furnished by 80 per cent
maximum surtax. 1t was expected
at the outset that the maximum surtax
would be SO per cent in the revised
bill, and the change, if embodied in the
bill as 1t becomes law, would tend to
make tax-exempt bonds more attractive.
Other United States government bonds
were irregular. With the exception OF
Mexicans, foreign government issues
displayed a steady tone. Mexican bs'
which closed at 521s on Saturday,
dropped to 50% and closed at 51A.
Rail and industrial bonds were firm.

Zurich Would Redeem
$4,000, 900 Loan Here

BERNE, Oct. 24.-The town council
OF Zurich to-day decided to profit by
the easy money market terms in Switz-
erland and float an internal loan from
Swiss banks for the purpose of re-
deeming the loan of $6,000,OO0 obtained
from American financiers last October.
The Zurich loan is not due in its
entirety until 1916, although redemp-
tion in small lots at lot is provided
for in an arrangement for a sinking
fund. The city reserved the right to
increase the amount of the sinking
fund from 2 per cent of amount out
standing after October Is, 1925. 1t
appears, therefore, that any redemption
plan undertaken at present would in
volve purchase of the bonds in the

IMPERIALISTIC TAX SYSTEM
BEING URGED BY AMERICAS INTERNATIONAL
BUSINESS GROUP FOR PASSAGE
IN CON GRESS
Not Satisfied With Escaping Excess Profit Taxes They
Scheme to Avoid Taxes Entirely

Gum-shoe battalions
of Americas international business
group are marshalled in the nations
capital to urge the passage of new
tax system, patterned after imperial
istic Europe.
The plan provides that where an
American corporation does 80 per cent
of it's business in foreign lands it is
exempt from the payment of income
corporation or other taxes.
The scheme is part of the new rev.
enue bill, which has passed the house,
but has struck several rocks in the
senate, where it was scheduled to slip
! through with as little publicity as pos
sible
The revenue bill repeals the ex-
! cess profits tax, but big business is
not satisfied with this plum and has
arranged to escape taxes entirely.
The proposal permits-and even
urages-American big business to
exploit the cheapest labor in the world
while being protected by the American
army and navy, without cost to these
| financial adventures.
High tariff advocates are support
ing the scheme, and this may pos
sibly account for sidetracking their
demand for protection to American
workingmen."
If the tax exemption is passed, big
business can exploit the millions OF
Chinese coolies and other cheap labor
and then pocket their tax-free profits
with Americas army and navy ready
at all times to respond to their call
to protect American property"
Big business will want markets for
its coolie products, but if America
erects high tariff wall against for
eign countries, these nations may re-
taliate on commodities marketed by
Americans.
This would affect the coolie pro-
ducts Of American big business
Hence, deep silence on the need for
protection to American workingmen
against the pauper labor of the old
world"
Opponents of the tax plan charge
that millions of dollars will be taken
out of the country, with the steel trust
and Standard Oil securing concessions
in China, Russia and elsewhere, and
other monopolists securing the world
for similar plums with American labor
idle because money and credit will go
to these exploited lands.

new tax system corporations will be

DISARMAMENT
FAVORED
British Trade UniOnists Line
Up to Fight Against
War Preparations

Washington.-Brit trade union
lists stand with American trade union
lists on the disarmament issue and de-
clare that the extensive program of
armament "is contrary to the spirit
and policy of disarmament and peace.
The Britishers call "for the suspen-
sion of all preparations for war at
least until the disarmament confer
ence has finished its work"
This information received by Presi-
dent Gompers is in response to his re-
cent suggestion to the trade union
movements of England, France, Italy
and Japan that worldwide demonstra-
tions be held in the interest of peace.
In letter to the A. F. of L. ex-
ecutive, C. w. Bowerman, secretary
of the parliamentary committee of the
British Trades Union Congress, in
closes this resolution passed by the
congress at its meeting in Cardiff, just
adjourned:
"This congress learns with satisfac-
tion that the president of the United
States is calling up international con-
ference to discuss the question of the
disarmament of nations, with which
policy it is fully in accord
''In the opinion of this congress,
however, such conference will not be
satisfactory unless labor is adequately
represented thereon, and understand
ing that Great Britain will take part
in such conference this congress claims
the right to appoint representatives
of organized labor to attend the con-
ference, seeing that the subject to be
discussed is matter vitality affecting
the interests of the workers in all
nations.
"The congress further protests
against the recent decision of the Brit
ish government to carry out an ex-
tensive program of ornaments which
is contrary to the spirit and policy of
disarmament and peace, as advocated
repeatedly by members of the gov
ernment themselves,
THE congress further asks for the
uspensicn of all preparations for war
at least until the disarmament con-
ference has finished its work"

MANY
If the Homes Actually Need.
ed Were Constructed
Butler County is 1861 Homes
Short, According to State
Officials Estimate

Construction. of the 1857 homes
needed to house every one properly in
Butler county would give work to
1885 men, according to estimates
made through the state department of
commerce by John w. Prugh, state
superintendent of building and loan
| associations. This announcement fol-
loyed a survey of Butler county by
Superintendent Prugh after a sugges-
tion from President Harding that
Ohio aid in giving work to its unem-
ployed through an extensive building
program. If the construction of only
small percentage of the 2,567 homes
needed in this county should be started
now, it would afford employment to
practically all seeking work.
Inasmuch as the government has
found that the building and loan asso-
Citations are the chief agencies for
home building, the brunt of financing
Ohio's building campaign will fall
upon these institutions.
Superintendent Prugh declared that
it would require $10,000,000 to finance
all the construction work needed in
this county in the way Of home build
ing and improvements. Assets for
building loan and savings institutions
in Butler county at the end of the fis-
cal year were $12,534, ,493, but most of
this money already has been loaned
for home construction, according to
reports made to the state building and
loan department.
Prugh declared Ohio financial insti-
tutions were anxious to aid in the re-
lieving unemployment but that it was
necessary for the public first to put
| it's savings in those institutions which
will aid in home construction. He
pointed out that 81 500 men were now
employed in the construction of homes
in Cleveland and said that if other
cities would do as well there would be
little unemployment in Ohio. Prugh
stated that building and loan institu-
tions Of Ohio had assets Of $552,-
600, 900 last year and that not single
penny was lost to depositors. He

If the public accept militarists ane
commercial expansionists as authority
on armament, the nation is headed fo1
a kaiserized democracy.
If the public permit racial prejudice

If the public neglect domestic mar.

be more than neutralized by battle

Washington.-In convening the ma
tional conference on unemployment in
This city, President Harding said that
the present industrial depression is
"a war inheritance throughout the
world" and that "there should be
work for every one who is willing to
work"
The president also said: "There
has been vast unemployment before
and will be again. Under the most
fortunate conditions, am told, there
are 100000 in the United States who
are not at work. The figures are as
founding only because we are 100,-
100000, and this parasite percentage
is always with US. But there is ex-
cessive unemployment today, and we
are concerned not alone about its dim
unition, but we are frankly anxious.
under the involved conditions, lest it
grow worse, with hardships of the
winter season soon to be met"
Secretary of Commerce Hoover is
chairman of the conference. Both he
and the president emphasized the
need for an employment program
which does not contemplate drain
on the national treasury.
After the conference organized, and
committees were appointed adjourn
ment was taken until October Is, when
the committees will present sugges-
tons for emergency relief.
Previous to assembling the confer
ence the president appointed 10 ad-
ditional members, which include M. F.
Tighe, president of the steel work
ers; Mrs. Sara Conboy, secretary
treasurer of the United Textile Work
ers, and John Donlin, president Of the
