TAFT TALKS ON DISARMAMENT
Ex-President, Spending a Month at
Bermuda, is Hopeful that Harding
viii Get Nations Together
ASSOCIATED Press)

Hamilton, Bermuda, Jan. For
mer President William Fl. Taft, who
is spending a month here, said in an
interview today that "the enormous
burden of debt of every country makes
it almost indispensable that the nee
essity for armament be removed. You
can only do that by joint action and
joint agreements and by promises Of
settling all differences without fight
ing"
"They are already discussing Sc
riously in the United States an agree
ment for disarmament or the limiting
of armament and strangely enough
this comes in part at least, from men
who have been vigorously opposed to
any league at ALL" he continued.
81 am very hopeful that under Mr..
Harding we shall reach conclusion
with other leading nations for an as
sociation or league which shall marx
the advance brought about by the war
toward reasonable machinery for the
avoidance of future conflicts. This
will involve the sitting around the
council table of all important nations
and will imply the taking of joint
measures to compose differences and
to restrain a resort to the unsatisfac-
tory and bloody arbitrament of war.
Lately I have often been question
ed as to the attitude of the United
States toward Great Britain. OF
course the United States consists of
some 110.O00,000 people with many
different currents of thought permeat-
ing the mass. Many different group
ings too win be found and there are
some Of these groups, more vocal
than representative Of real public
opinion who manifest bitter feeling
against Britain But when an impor-
tant question arises, when a real issue
comes before us. then the sober public
opinion Of the United States asserts
Itself.
81 never have had the slightest con-
Germ over the relations Of the two
ecuntries. We form the strongest
union for peace between nations that
exists in the word today. We have
got into the habit Of settling all our
differences by means Of negotiation
and arbitration The great body Of
the people in the United States can
not conceive of a war between the
two countries because they are con-
lfdent that any matters in dispute can
and will be settled either by negotia-
tion or by the judgment of q court as
with people in any domestic jurisdie-
ltion where law and order prevail
Speaking of business conditions IN
1.-THE United States, he said they were
rot alarming. "We are very resilient
people and can fight our way out,
he said. Congress is attempting to
help in the matter Of credits"

Remarkable Photographic Feat.

Conspicuous among a number of re-
markable scenes in a three-reel mo-
tion-picture film recently taken of an
Ohio steel mill In operation, is one
that actually shows the boiling OF
molten metal in an open-hearth fur
mace heated TO 1900 degrees Fahren-
heit. The Photographic feat Of sue
cessfully registering this action In de-
tail on the film is particularly inter
esting, because the subject Is one that
a human eye can not gaze upon un-
protected, says Popular Mechanics
Magazine. Furthermore, the extreme
heat Of the furnace cast some doubt
on the safety of the camera, with its
charge OF ceIluloid ribbon, and while
the exposure was made, two men stood
ready TO hurl the operator TO a cooler
place II anything happened.

TRYING TO SAVE THE
TOBACCO GROWERS
Bankers, Farmers, Tobacco and Money
Form the Links of an Endless
Chain in Central Kentucky
ASSOCIATED Press)

Lexington, KY, Jan. 21.-Central
Kentucky is trying to save thousands
o. farmers from bankruptcy and
banks and business houses from Sc
rious embarrassment, according to
statements of bankers, growers and
others who have been active in. the
movement to force prices for the 1920
crop of hurley tobacco to a point that
will not be far from the 1920 record.
They assign this as the reason for the
nervous situation that has torn the
hurley tobacco region for the last sew
eEal weeks, resulting in all markets,
hut few, being closed, threats being
made against buyers, a run on one
hank and an agreement to "cut out"
the 1921 crop and hold the 1920 crop
if financial arrangements can be
made.
Banks in Central Kentucky loan
large sums to farmers to finance their
crops. Just how large the total OF
these loans this year is no guess has
been ventured. The question of how
long, the bankers can carry the farm.
ers, however, was one of the foremost
in the meeting of farmers. growers
and warehousemen held here recently
1t is claimed that if tobacco doe:
not bring a satisfactory price these
farmers will lose their lands, and
many financial institutions will be
hampered.
Buyers of tobacco are silent as Il
why prices are not higher. Farmers

INCOME TAX RULES
Head of a Family Given Two Thou
sand Dollars Exemption

Single persons, though required to
file a return if their net income for
1920 was $1,000 or more, are, if they
are the heads of families, granted
special exemption under the revenue
laws. Such a person is defined by
treasury regulations as "a person who
actually supports and maintains In
one household one or more individuals
who are closely connected with him by
marriage or by adoption, and whose
right to exercise family control and
provide for these dependent individ-
uals is based upon some moral or legal
obligation" Such persons are allowed
the exemption of $4,000 granted mar
ried person In addition, they are al
lowed a credit of 5000 for each de-
pendent under 18 years of age or in
capable of self-support because men,
tally or physically defective.
Husband and Wife
A married person living with hus-
band or wife can not claim an addi-
tional $4,000 exemption as the head of
q family. His or her exemption Is
based upon the marital status, ire
spective of the support of others liv-
ing in the same household. The addi-
tional 5000 credit for dependents does
not apply to the husband or wife of a
taxpayer. For example, if married
man supports father who is incapa-
bic of sef-support, he is entitled to
the 5000 credit for such person. If
through force of circumstances he
supports his wife away from home he
is entitled to the $4,000 exemption al
lowed a married person, but not to a
$500 credit for dependent.
A son who has left home but who
sends his mother more than one-half
the sum required for her support is
entitled to the $500 credit. provided
the mother can not support herself
Otherwise, the amount must be con.
ssdered as gift, and, therefore, the
credit is not allowed. A son living al
home and supporting his father
mother or other relative may claim
the $4,000 exemption allowed the hea6
of family, but not the $500 credit
unless such relative is under 18 years
of age or incapable of self-support.

WILL YOU BE A WINNER!

This question can best be answered
by the candidate herself as work alone
will tell the tale. Will you work each
day, harder than the day before, or
will you be satisfied to work spas
medically, expecting friends to bring
their subscriptions to you? Consis-
tency is really what counts. as the
candidate who puts forth every effort,
every day, will no doubt be the one
who will be the proud possessor Of the
beautiful STUDEBAKER. The can
didate who fails to take advantage of
each day during the opening period
may have to content herself with a
minor prize, as this is the most impor-
tant period of the entire campaign.
the loss of one days work may mean
the loss of the capital prize, 20
each candidate should strive to make
each day count more votes than the
day before.

ALL CONTESTANTS CLOSELY
PUNCHED IN THE RACE
FOR STUDEBAKER SIX
First Count of Votes Shows All Ladies
Fighting Hard For Valuable Prizes
Next Voting to be Published Next
Friday.

The first count of votes in the man.
moth popularity and subscription
running on the Daily and
Weekly Star shows all candidates
very closely punched. In fact, it is
extremely doubtful if any previous
campaign in. this vicinity ever de-
veloped more interest than the one
now in progress as all of the candi-
dates are very close together. AS yet,
of course, hardly any of the candi-
dates have gotten in their best work,
but as the campaign only runs till
February 18th, all candidates should
try and get all subscriptions possible
now. The largest extra vote offer,
the bonus offer, comes to a close at
the close of business for the day on
next Saturday, January 22nd. Up to
and including that date, an extra
$4,000 votes will be allowed on eacn
and every $3.50 turned in, making
each subscription average three times
as many votes as will be allowed dur
ing the closing period. 1t is easily
seen, therefore, just how important
this period is and why it is so inpor-
tant that the candidates should get
eevry subscription possible while the
large offer is on. Never again will
subscriptions count as many votes as
now and the candidate who gets de-
cided lead this week will have the
best chance to win the STUDEBAKER
SIX, as a lead once secured is much
easier held than trying to overcome
the lead of someone else.
