Like All Loyal GIenwoodites
Doctor George Kicker
Gives US Boost
THINKS OF "HoME'

Apparently it matters not now iar
one may roam from Glenwood and hef
beautiful surroundings, the heart al
ways reverts to this gem of Colorado
beauty spots, and there is always a
good word for the old town from Glen
wood s former residents whenever oP-
portunity offers. 1t is therefore not
strange that DIR. e.. David kelker,
born and reared to young manhood IN
Glenwood, now successful physician
of Paso Robles, California, should
boost Glenwood and her big swimming
pool, as indicated N the following
letter:
Paso Robes, Calf, July IL, 1921.
Mr.. A. j. Dickson,
Glenwood Springs, Colo.
Dear Friend.-I must tell you of an
incident which happened here today,
for | know you, as Glenwood booster,
will be interested.
During the weekly luncheon of the
paso Robes Boosters club, an Organiza.
ton of about fifty business and pro-
fessIonal men all of whom are active,
paid-up members of our chamber of
commerce and who meet together at
luncheon once each week to discuss
and boost Paso Robes projects, the
strl,t
proposed new, open air swimming pool
and much to my surprise and pleasure
l saw several pamphlets being circu.
lated about the large table at which
we all sat and every single one of the
pamphlets was from Glenwood Springs,
Colo, my old home town, and along
with the pamphlets was u letter from
the Glenwood Springs Chamber Of
Commerce.
The president OF the Paso Robes
Chamber of Commerce is u classmate
of mine from Stanford, and knowing
that Glenwood was my "home" he
asked me to tell the Boosters club
something of the swimming pool and
baths at Gienwood. And you may be
sure, Mr.. Dickson, that L made the
best of the opportunity of telling them
of the many advantages and good
things about Glenwood for although
am now citizen and booster of
Paso Robes, the Almond City, l still
do and always will think of Glen
wood as HOME-and / concluded my
short talk by urging them all to visit
GlenwOod at some time for I was sure
they would never regret it and would
agree that it was one Of America 3
finest resorts.
AS result of our discussion today
| do not believe it will be long before
Paso Robles will have large open air
swimming pool patterned very much
after the swimming pool in Glenwood.
We have been living here now about
nine months and i am fairly well es-
tablished and doing very well. Kindly
remember me to all my Glenwood
friends and i hope that any of them
passing through here will surely stop
and say hello for / am always glad to
see anyone from Glenwood. l always
find time to read The Glenwood Post
every week and surely enjoy it. Re
member me to Ray when you write
him and say hello to Hugh Moore now
that he has come "home' again.
With kindest regards to yourself,
remain

LIVE STOCK RATES
MAY BE REDUCED

Washington, d. c., July 20.-A sub
stantial decrease in freight rates on
livestock in approximately two-thirds
of the United States, from the Pacific
coast to the ississippi and Chicago and
from the Gulf to Canada has been rec
commended to the interstate commerce
commission by Examiner Disque of the
commission.
The examiner stated that while rates
are not excessive when pudged from a
strictly transportation standpoint, they
should nevertheless be substantially
reduced to assist in tiding the live
stock industry over its present period
of adversely and to hasten return of
normally conditions and business pros.

I've have no hesitancy in saying
that our Judgment is that they should
be reduced,' Examiner Disque said.

Denver, July 20.-The examiner 8
recommendations are made as the re-
suit Of extensive hearings on the live
stock situation recently at Denver and
Chicago. A huge volume of testimony
was delivered by officials of complain
ing live stick and shippers associations
to show that the maintenance Of tbs
present schedule of rates on live stock
was ruinOus to the interests involved,
Examiner Disque g report, while pre-.
liminary to formal hearing by the
entire commission in Washington to-
morrow, is regarded as prophetic of
the course the commission will eventu.
ally take. Among the stockmen here,
it is confidently asserted that the rail-
roads will be required to remove all
of the advance made as a result of a
decision in the case of Elk Parte "a of
last August. The increase at that time
was roughly SO l3 per cent as among
the various groups.

INCOME TAX FACTS
You SHOULD KNOW

Widows and widowers WHO lost
their husbands or wives during the
year are especially affected They
are single Tor the purpose Of the

an exemption of $1,000, unless the

Persons who were divorced or Sc
parated by mutual agreement during
the year must also consider them
selves as single persons.
The status of the taxpayer OH De-
ceinber, 1920, determines the amount
of the exemptions. III on that day
the taxpayer was married and living
with husband or wife, claim may be
made for the $1,000 exemption. If
single, or married and not living with
wife or husband on December 81 ,
the exemption is only $1,000.
Persons who reached majority dur
ing the year and whose earnings
for that period amounted to 1000 or
more, or $1,000 or more, according to
their marital status, must file return
and pay tax on their net income in
excess of these amounts.
To avoid penalty, the return must
be in the hands of the Collector oil

Few of the Old Guard Lett

Commenting upon the changed com
pIeXion of the Rapid Transit Co. dreC-
toratc, n retired local banker. who has
always taken n very active interest in
the development of street railway
properties, asserted yesterday there was
evidently very few of the old guard
still in the traction game.
Unless I am much deceived he
said, the old interests who played a
prominent part in the promotion and
development Of the passenger railway
lines of this city, or their heirs, have
little, if any, stock in any of these
companies. In the last, two or three
years, heavy selling of stock at times
was NOR" or less of n mystery. The
identity of the seller, by skillful stock
exchange mHneuvers, was always cleverly
concealed. 1t is now no longer a
mystery. for il is quite certain many
of the former large shareholders quietly
slipped out and were quite willing to
let the dear public carry their share
of The burden This means. of course,
that the stock has been widely dis
tributed. which is CorrobOrat"d in the
largely increased number of share
holders on the Company's books.
'"This does not only apply to Phila /.
delphia Rapid Transit Co.. but also to
all the underlying companies. This
does not include what can be called the
original lines, which are still held,
because they return an income which
could not be paid by any living COR

Is Il a Reduction?

The United Cigar Stores directors
yesterday declared dividend Of one
per cent. In the previous quarter l12
per cent was declared. Some raised
the point whether this should not be
construed as reduction. 1t is pretty
certain the stockholders will consider
it cut when they find their check calls
for IL per cent less than that which
they received in February. Those who
assert no reduction was made point to
the statement Of the management that
it has no fixed dividend policy. In
other words directors are free to in
crease or reduce payments at any time.
That may sound all right just at the
moment when oil corporations are
scratching gravel to find funds to pay
dividends, but no one ever heard OF
this policy. or talked or hinted about it,
a little over year ago when tn" pools
and speculative combinations w"r" try =
ing to push the price of this and other
tobacco stocks up to the skyline. En-
yironmcntS and conditions always make
the perspective totally different.
