Washington, ID. c., Aug. 2i.
IL Congress sticks to Its plan to take
months recess beginning on Wednes-
day, 1t appears doubtful IL the emer-
gency appropriation requested by Chair
man Lasker of the Shipping Board viii
be forthcoming prior to the recess.
Chairman Lasker asked for 500, 900, 900,
but the House Committee on Appropria-
tions scaled this to S4S. 100000 with the
restriction that none should be used for
the payment of claims against the board.
The Senate Committee on Appropria-
tions held brief hearings and reported
the bill to the Senate without the limi-
tation of salaries amendment.
The calling UP of the bill on the floor
of the Senate was the signal for the fire
works and what has happened in the
Senate chamber is calm and uneventful
compared with what is threatened dur
Ing further discussion of the bill.
Senator Harrison (Miss.), Senator
Borah Cdaho) and others already have
taken shots at the Shipping Board. Har-
rison and Borah did not end their re-
marks and are we'll supplied with am
munition for future use. Furthermore,
Senator La Toilette, champion long dis
tance speaker of the Senate, has in his
desk the manuscript for q set speech on
the Shipping Board the pages OF which
IL placed end on end would reach far
beyond the boundaries Of the District OF
Columbia and into the great beyond.

Paris. Aug. FL.
The political clamor against Paul
Doumer, Minister OF Finance. for having
given even tentative approval TO the
Inter-Allied financial arrangements pro-
posed during the session of the Supreme
Council has not had serious effect on
Bourse transactions, a general improve
ment being noted In all divisions. Coal
shares are showing a rise of 80 to 40 per
cent. in leading companies. while even
sugars are now on an upward trend.
1t was expected that the possibility
that France would not get anything from
the first 1000. 900, 900 marks reparations
payments by Germany owing to 1t peing
charged with the value of Saare coal
holdings would cause the market TO
stagger, but keener visioned spectators,
instead of being frightened, apparently
have decided that once France has paid
for the value of Saare holdings it will be
an easier matter to colonize the district
so that eventually it can be annexed by
n plebiscite.
The upward movement has been facili-
tated by the report that the Polish Gov
crnmant intends to restore the liberty of
trade to coal Dealers thus opening a
profitable market to French mine own
crs.
AS far as the money market Is con-
cerned Paris has not seen such an abun-
dance available for gilt edge investments
since the armistice. The decision of the
Swiss National Bank to reduce the OFF,
cial discount rate to per cent. is taken
here as a promising symptom. and 1t Is
not unlikely that the Bank of France
will follow this lead as soon as the sum-
iner vacation period closes.
The general condition of Paris banks
continues satisfactory, the Banoue de
Paris. Banaue National de Credit and
the Union Parisienne each showing in
creases. The attention of the public
Etill is being called. however. to the diff
culties of the Societe Centrale des
Banques de Province. which a month
ngo was considered out of danger, due
TO promises of reorganization and the
calling in of the shareholders final sub
scriptions. Now 1t is reported that fric-
tion is increasing and that some of the
provincial bankers are refusing to loosen
their purse strings until they are shown
some prospect of an equitable liquida-
tion which would not mean an entire
loss of their investments.

of New York urges you to withhold
your approval of the pending tax bill,
in which, against your advice, maxi
mum surtax of so percent on incomes
has been agreed to by both houses

is econom cally unwise because It's

to drive capital out OF business and
therefore to increase unemployment

Farmers should understand, that

With soc going to National dues,
$500 to the State Federation and SOC
for the Farm Bureau News, the $500
remaining out OF a $500 membership
would be insufficient to run the Coun

Archie King. proprietor of the Main

the Troy hospital with broken right

was slightly bruised but s.,a.-ined
no injuries.
King and Tetreault left here Thurs.

keepsie early in the evening, arriving
about midnight in Troy, where they
stopped for something to eat.
When about ten miles out Of Troy
in the town of Raymertown the car
and big truck went into a collision
that badly wrecked the Dodge, took
a wheel off the truck and threw the
occupants of both vehicles into the
highway The driver of the truck,
whose name was not ascertained, was
bruised but not injured to any extent.
Tetreault is of the opinion that the
accident could have been avoided had
the driver of the truck moved more
quickly to give the Dodge its half OF
the road and had the road not been so
slippery. When King sighted the
truck he applied the brake but his
car began to skid and could not be
held in the road. When the vehicles
came together the Dodge, according II
Tatreault was nearly ripped TO
pieces. King was thrown out Of the
car and Tetreault against the steering
wheel
Inside OF five minutes after the col
lision man who was returning to
Troy from Bennington arrived on the
scene and King was carried to the
Troy hospital In spite of the injury
on the head he did not lose conscious
ness
