that the only thing he did not like
about this journal was that We boost

too much He stated that 1t took too
much money from the people to carry
on and keep up all Of these institu-
tons; that the preachers use TO
preach without pay and that we paid
them too much now. We ask him
how much he paid the preachers; he
said nothing. We don't see where he
is injured Show us man who is

Las Cruces, N. M, Oct. To-
Joining with American business
mon In assuring President Harding
OF their support in his effort to re-
lieve the world of its staggering
burden and to enforce Statutory
economy for the benefit of the
people. the directors of the Las
Cruces Chamber of Commerce
unanimously endorsed the follow
ing resolution at their meeting Oc-
tober II:
That this organization at
tributes the decline of our, for
elgn trade and the reduced do
nestle consumption of manu-
features and luxuries to excess
sive taxation and to the ex-
haustion of capital and credit.
1t places hope of substantial
and world wide recovery upon
the success of the conferences
for the Limitation of arma-
ments and urges the admins
tration to use every effort to
bring about q drastic reduce
ton of naval and military ex-
penditure, so that all countries
and classes may be relieved OF
staggering burden, which
threatens some with insolyen-
cy and conflscation and all with
trade stagnation and unem-
ployment,"
The directors instructed their
secretary, w. II. Broaddus, to urge
tho United States Chamber OF Com
MERGE to act with them and to
send copy of the resolution to
President Harding.
c. f. Knight, president of the
chamber OF commerce, said today
there is no doubt that the heavy
taxation for unproductive purpos-
es has begun to restrict consump-
ton. The people generally are
spending less because the tax col
lector is taking more.
1.-THE present depression
cannot be expe sted to disap-
peat" he added, unless the
burden of ornaments Is sub
stantially diminished. Public
retrenchment certainly Is nee
essary at this time"
