That the horseless age is recedine

nearly a million in the last decade

PRESENT eRAlN-sToRAeE PLAN

A plan that would make available
to the individual farmer the grain
storage facilities of terminal eleya
tors was presented by Secretaries
Wallace and Hoover to a conference
Of representatives of farm, elevator
mill, and warehouse interests held In
Washington, D. c., last month.
In this plan, the country elevator
would receive for storage all the
grain. offered by farmers, even tho
in excess of its capacity, and issue
certificates showing the quantity and
grade. The country elevator, in turn
could slip the grain to terminal
elevator for storage. When the farm
er presented his certificate, the ele
vator could deliver receipts for grain
of the same or higher grade stored
in a terminal elevator. II the grain
had moved into terminal storage, the
charges for freight and handling, to.
gether with accumulated storage and
insurance, would be deducted from
it's sale value.
The advantages claimed for this
plan are that it would give farmers
unlimited storage facilities, SO that
they would not be confined to the
capacities of their own granaries or
local elevators, and, with insured
storage certificates that would be &C.
cepted generally as collateral, they
would be able to borrow money on
their grain and hold it until favor.

Under estimates for federal outlay
this year as presented by Mr.. Mellon
$3.50, 100000 will have to be raised
by taxation, whereas he estimated
that the present revenue law will
provide $26O,0O0,0OO less than that
sum, due largely to the shrinkage in
the yield from excess profits and in.
come taxes.
Revenue viii Shrink.

to proceed to reduce revenue merely
in the hope of reduced expenditure,
Even without changes in the law, rev

present outlook, at faster rate than
current expenditures
Then he proceeded to show expen.

compared with a deficit of $4,000, 900

Representative Mondell, republican

1t was practical in his opinion, "to
reduce the tax levy by at least $780,
100000 and still meet all proper,
essential expenses of the government.
What Borah Said.
A warning to republican leaders
against increasing taxes in revising
the internal revenue bill was given in
the senate by Senator Borah, who
also proposed reductions in army and
navy expenditures of nearly $50,000,-
900.
The Idaho senator introduced a res
olution to reduce the army from 150,-
900 to 100000 men, which he said
would effect saving of about 100,-
100000. and asked the naval commit
tee to report resolution of Senator
King, democrat, Utah to stop work on
six battleships of the Indiana type.
Little has been done on the construc-
ton of these battleships, he explained,
adding that by stopping the work
100000 could be saved
Another load of $1,000,000 a month
could be saved, he commended, by
withdrawing American troops from
Germany in accordance with the
solemn pledge" of republicans during
the presidential campaign.
