MUST OVERTHROW THE REDS
only Hope for Rehabilitation of Rus
STA, Declares Secretary of
State Hughes.

Washington, April 1S.-In the over
throw of the soviet government lies
the only hope for the rehabilitation Of
Russia and the resumption Of trade
with the United States is the opinion
of Secretary of State Hughes eX-
pressed in a letter to Samuel Com
pers and made public here.
Analysing the soviet economic and
industrial conditions now prevailing
in Russia in response 10 Mr.. Com
pers' request that the truth be told
about that country. Secretary Hughes
letter is regarded in official circles
here as an even stronger document
than his recent note on Russian trade.
'"The devastation of industry in
Russia has been so complete" he
states, "the poverty of the country Is
so acute the people are so hungry
and the demand for commodities is so
great that at present Russia repre-
sents a gigantic vacuum and no evi-
dence exists that the unfortunate sit
uation is likely to be alleviated so
long as the present political and
economic system continues"

YAP POLICY APPROVED
BY THE JAP CABINET
Tokyo Ministry Refuses to Change
Attitude Because of Tenor of
American Note

Tokyo, April 21.-The cabinet de-
cided that there was no reason to alter
Japan's policy on the zap mandate
question because of the recent Ameri
can note On the subject, according to
the Niehi Nichi.
The government deemed it wise not
to make any statement or comment
on the zap question beyond what has
been, or will be, published by mutual
understanding between the Japanese
and American governments, foreign
Office officials declared.
Publication locally of the CORE
spondence on the question Of man
dates has been followed by change
Of tone in the Japanese newspapers,
which generally consider the Ameri-
can attitude unreasonable
The summary of the comment is
that the United States claims the
right of veto over the decisions of the
allies in connection with the war with
Germany, and that Japan cannot reply
to such claim, which must come be-
fore the allied supreme council, OF
which Japan is member.
If the powers decide to yield to
American insjstence on the exclusion
Of zap from the japanese mandate
the commentators say Japan undoubt-
eddy will be forced to bow to such a
decision.
Meantime the newspapers believe it
likely Japan is reminding her allies
of the original agreement made prior
to the entry of the United States into
the war, under which Japan was to
receive the Pacific islands north of the
equator, and also of the fact that
Japan abandoned important desires
during the peace conference in the in
terest of harmony.

MONDELL WOULD CUT
DOWN TAX BURDEN
Republican House Leader Says Do
NOT Shift, but Reduce the
Peoples Load.

Washington, April is. - Congress
will refuse to enact sales tax legisla-
ton, Representative Mondell of
Wyoming, Republican leader of the
house, declared. Mr. Montlell also re-
lterated his previous declaration that
there should be lifting" instead Of
a shifting" of tax burdens.
He indicated his belief that objec-
tionable taxes could be repealed with
out providing any substitutes, NOT
withstanding President Harding's dec
laratiOn in his address to congress
that relief from tax burdens could
come for the present only through a
REIMBURSEMENT of taxes and that the
revenue from internal taxation must
be kept up to level of at least 3d.
O0O,000,000
''There is not going to be any sales
tax" said Mr.. Mondel1, 'for two rea
sons. First, a sales tax under the
American form of government cannot
be justified save as a war or emer-
gency measure and, second, for the
reason that the country needs lift
ing of the tax burden"
Representative MOndell declared
that the floating debt must be consid-
cred a part of the war debt and
financed as such. He said it should
be carried along until refunding OPP
erations are necessary in connection
with the Victory loan and then alb
sorbed in long term bond issue.
''The time has come" said Mr.. Mon
dell, 80 repeal some of our taxes
rather than to be cudgeling our brains
searching for new methods of taxa
tiOn."

To Poultry Raiser.

This weather brings to mind the
necessity Of proper housing for the
laying hens, Given carefully selected
pure bred hens, the next essential to
the profitable production of quality
eggs Is the right kind of a poultry
house. One winter egg is worth from
four to five summer eggs, and it is
useless to expect many winter eggs
unless the hens are properly housed It
u not necessary to build an expensive
houae in order to have = good one. It
should be built facing the south on
high, well drained ground. The roof,
north side and two ends should be
both watertight and windtiRht. On the
south side provision should be made
for admitting an abundance of sun
shine and plenty Of pure air without
draughts. Not less than three square
feet Of floor space should be allowed
for each hen which the house is to
contain. Much Of the loss and many
OF the ills and dissapointments met
with in poultry raising can be traced
directly to nonsensically designed,
poorly constructed, badly ventilated
houses, 1t should be designed
with . view of economy, simplicity,
comfortAbleness, convenience, dryness,
