west of the Cascades. Among the
representatives Of the roads present
were S. j. Henry, tariffff commits
sioner for the roads; L. B. DePonte,

creasing practically all freight rates
in Western Washington, the increases
running in some instances as high as
400 per cent, were filed some time

GAME WARDEN SAVES
TWO THOUSAND TROUT
FROM DRY CREEK BED

County Game Warden Ben King
yesterday rescued approximately g.
900 small trout, ranging from two
to four inches in size, from the
waterholes in the dry bed of Wad-
die creek, which empties into Black
river near Little Rock.
Receiving a report that the creek
was dry, except for occasional holes,
for a distance of half a mile, the
game warden went out and with a
net cleaned out the holes, planting
the fish in Black river. The game
warden reports finding from SO to
200 trout in each hole. Planting a
net at the bottom of the hole, the
warden would drop bug on the top
of the water over the net. The trout
would rush hungrily for the bug and
were easily scopped up in the net,
catches in this way ranging from 20
to so each time. By next year these
trout will be Of good size.
In few days more, If dry weather
continues, another mile or more Of
the creek will be dry and will be
"fished" by the game warden in the
same way.

WASHINGTON, D. c., August IS.
The larger share of tax under the
administrations revenue revision
program will fall on those most able
to pay, according to a statement is
sued at the White House today, de-
tending President Harding's position
against criticism from various quar-
tiers.
There has been no effort to reduce
only the taxes of the rich, 1t was In
sisted. On the contrary, the admin
istration is bent on seeing that every
class bears its rroportionate share OF
the taxes and that frauds and eva
sions possible under the existing law
are made impossible, the White
House said.
1.-The aim was to establish methods
that would raise the needed revenue
within reasonable certainty, that
would make collection sure and in
expensive and that would properly
adjust the burden among all classes
of the community" the statement
said. "It is felt that highly import
ant progress has been made along
these lines.
1.-THE social ana economic bearings
Of the new proposals are significant.
There has been no effort to relieve
the rich of their share of the burdens,
but rather to insure that no class
will be left an avenue to escape from
these. A casual analysis of the pro-
posal shows that what may be de-
scribed as the rich mans taxes win
produce about $500, 100000 while
the balance will be distributed over
the entire community, rich and poor;
the rich being certain, because they
are proportionately the greatest con-
sumers, to pay q proportionately
much greater share.
I'm Short" the statement con.
cluded. 1.-The whole tax reform pro-
gram contemplates freeing business
from what have been found paralyz-
ing and exasperating restrictions, en-.
couraging to the utmost resumption
of enterprise and business, removing
every possible incentive to evasion
and fraud and distributing the tax
burden with the greatest possible
equity among all classes of people,
keeping in mind the purpose to i'm
pose the larger share on those best
able to pay"
