WASHINGTON, June So.-Presi-

today, it was authoritatively stated
at the White House this morning
The President, after signing the
measure viii send a written protest
to- congress against the limitations
thrown around the army establish:
ment.
Harding and Weeks opposed, partic-
.ularly the reduction of the army to
10000 by October l, and also the Bo-
rah amendment, prohibiting the war
department from incurring deficit
President Harding sent message
to congress, strongly dissenting from
the provisions in the army appropria-
tions bill, which requires that the
army be reduced ! to 10000 men by
October J.
The President announced his ap-
proval of the bill, but warned that he
does not feel justified in asking the
secretary Of war to enforce the dis
missal of men before the expiration of
their enlistments as would be peces-
sary should the measure be carried
into effect.

LIGHT DOCKET
3FOR july Term
COUNTY sQ0|!!R|lEs
so FAR NO ITEMS THAT ARE
LIKELY TO PROVOKE DEBATE
OR AROUSE INTEREST.
ROAD BONDS MAY COME UP
Doubtful II Chairman Akin's Tax
Levy Committee VIII Be Prepared
to Report at This Time-Two Bridg-
es Are Asked For. ~

Unless. the road bond question
comes ~before the quarterly court at
the July term, from present indica-
tions the session promisessto be a
rather quiet one, So far as tits made
the docket does not disclose any items
that are liable to provoke any 'consid-
cradle discussion and there are no
elections to be. made. t.s,
,< The most important matter on the
docket is the tax levy for the year.
The tax levy committee composed of
five members, of which Squire Akin is
chairmans has not held any meetings,
due to the fact that until the aggre-
gate assessment of the county is as
certained no intelligent report of the
levy needed could be made. 1t is
doubtful if any levy will be recon-
mended at this term.
AS heretofore stated the tax asses.
sor and county board of equalization
have reduced the property values of
the county by from fifteen to twenty
per cent. If the same sum is requir-
ed for the operating expenses of the
county that was provided last year
this will mean an increase in the tax
rate. However, a number of the JUS
tices are going to make an effort to, II
possible, reduce the expenses of the
county and thereby keep down the
rate. Whether or not that can be
done is mooted question. One prom
inent member of the court has exc
pressed the opinion that the levy for
sinking fund could be decreased with
out impairing the credit of the coun-
ty.
1t is known that Tax Statistician
Louthan, of the state board of asses
sors, is going to insist that property
be assessed at its actual value and
doubtless an effort will be made to
have the state board restore the as
sessments in this county to last years
standard Until the outcome of such
an effort is known the total valuation
cannot be calculated.
Two bridges on the Hampshire-Mt.
Pleasant pike, calling for appropria-
tions of $2,25O are on the docket. Then
there are the usual routine matters to
be disposed Of. So far as known at
this time there will be no eleetiQns.
