SM00T TAX IS
GAINING FAVOR
WITH SENATORS
Adoption of Measure Would
Not Change Income, Liquor
and FeU Other Taxes.
(By Associated A Press,

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-There is
a growing sentiment in the senate in
favor Of the Smoot plan for a manu-
facturers' sale tax as substitute for
many miscellaneous war levies accord
ing to the proponents of such tax. They
predict that the more senator's study
the pending revenue measure the more
they have come to favor the sales
levy.
Senator King would have stricken
out. of the revenue bill that section
allowing, in the case Of mines, oil and
gas wells and other natural deposits
and timber. reasonable allowance for
depletion and depreciation of improve
ments, according to the peculiar con-
ditions in each case based upon cost,
including the cost of development, not
otherwise deducted.
Smoot's plan contemplates no
change in the present income, tobac-
CO, liquor and inheritance taxes and
customs duties. He stated that this
sales tax had been estimated to yield
$759 200, 900 for 1922, which would be
ample to provide the revenue lost by
the repeals he proposes.
Assurances given him by Republi-
can leaders that the anti-beer bill will
be disposed of finally before the end
of the present extraordinary session
of congress caused Senator Sterling,
republican, of South Dakota, to concur
today in unanimous agreement for
final consideration of the German,
Austrian and Hungarian treaties on
Oct. IA, after he had previously op-
posed it in the senate.

On Thursday the cotton gin

On Thursday the cotton gin
of Messrs. Bergerie 4 VOORHEES,
steamed up for a few weeks
ginning. This we believe is the
only cotton gin in Iberia Parish
that will be in running order
this season. From what we
could ascertain they arc paying
for cotton in the seed the price
Of $500 per- thousand pounds.
1t is estimated that there arc
not over two hundred and fifty
bales available in the Parish this
year. With the boil weevil ont
of the way and the price for the
staple anywhere near the pres
cnt price there should be scy-
eral hundred bales raised IN
1922. Some fifteen years ago
there was. always as much az
five and six thousand bales Of
cotton grown by our. small far
mers. Those were prosperous
days for the small farmers and
we would like to see The some
conditions prevail again.
