Request of Shipping Board for

Director Of Budget.

WASHINGTON, July 21.-Taxa-
ton is worrying Republican leaders
of Congress today more than at any
time since the outset of the present
Administration.
They admit that the most serious
problem they are struggling with Is
not how to reduce the gross amount
Of taxation under which the Amer
lean people are staggering, but how
to prevent it from being materially
increased.
The plain, unvarnished truth OF the
tax situation is admitted to be that no
matter how successful Congress is in
changing the form of taxation, there Is
little or no prospect Of it being able to
tighten the taxes the great mass Of the
people are compelled to pay.
KIDDIE's JOY TAX
WILL REMAIN.
The tax on the ice cream cone, the
chlldren,s pennies buy, the tax on the
sundae and soft drink are likely to
stick. The tax On the railroad or the
steamboat fares, the passenger digs down
IOr, prODaDIy VIII remain.
Some relief to business by the abolition
Of the excess profits tax and a reduction
in the higher income taxes, is promised,
and the little fellow is expected to
benefit only from the business revival
predicted by tax revision in this direc-
ton.
DEFICIENCIES CALL
FOR MILLIONS.
The tax situation is being aggravated
by demands already being made for de-
Efficiency appropriations running into
hundreds Of millions of dollars, accord

sistants. The request Of Chairman

Dawes, the budget bureau chief. They
declare they feel discouraged and dis

ministraton having to be furnished with
enormous sums for the rehabilitation OF
the railroads and the shipping board
when the only hope for any reduction in
taxation at all lies in the ability TO ef

Protection, Protection.

Do you believe in protection?
Were you at the fire in HaInil-
tons Fort the other day? If you
were you saw how helpless we
were in the presence of fire and a
little wind.
Why have your life time accu-
mutation wiped out in few min
utes when an annual fee of a few
dollars will protect you? 1t will
cost you but $500 per 100000 in
surance on your home and the con-
tents for three years, Just think OF
of it-less than $500 per year.
Can you afford to be without
the protection?
See Foster and Cory for the
best protection that you can have.

CLEANUP CAMPAIGN
IS IN FULL SWING

One man who thought he had
three loads of trash and manure
to haul off last week in order to
clean his place up found when he
came to do the work that there were
fifteen loads. But now they are
hauled and he is glad of it. Many
others, in fact the majority of the
citizens apparently, have been active
in the past week cleaning up THEN
premises. The time is now up for
cleaning, and the committees are
busy inspecting premises. A part
of the cleanup campaign is the
picture show and lecture to be given
probably week from next Sunday
night at the Thorley theatre which
will illustrate the benefits of sani-
tation and evils of allowing filth to
accumulate.
Premises found to be unsani-
tary or tending to allow flies to
breed will be reported to the city
health board which will notify
owners to make the necessary clean
up. If the owners do not do this
the city will hire it done and collect
the amount from the owner the
same as it collects other taxes.

SAINT GEORGE WILL SAY IT
WITH FLOWERS

The Saint George commercial
club has flower committee which
recently received its first consign-
ment of roses amounting to thirty
orders for Saint George citizens,
with another consignment ordered
to come later.
That is what Cedar City needs
an organized movement to make her
a city of roses. If Saint George
becomes famed for her roses, it is
not necessary for US to sit back and
envy her that fame. All we need
do is to plant and cultivate as
many or more roses. No more beau
tiful roses grow than those of Ce'
dar City. All they need is the or
ganized campaign to get them Sc
out.

In view of the fact that the Treas

which are really short-term obliga-
ton of the Government.
The total issue of these notes has
been reduced from $4,000, 000. 900 to
S3,S56, 291 $50 as of July 31--a reduc-
ton of $643,708,S50. The reduction in
the month of July was $57, 642 200,
and II Is regarded as certain that be-
fore their maturity the total issue will
have been SO far reduced that the
Government will have no trouble in
selling any new issue with which to
take up whatever balance of them may
then remain outstanding. They will
be payable in twenty-one months from
the goth of this month.
AT present prices they are selling on
about 51a per cent basis. Their pur-
chase, therefore, gives the investor an
opportunity Of occurring twenty-one
months Government obligations on a
s II per cent basis, with the certainty
that during this period of twenty-one
months the marketability of the in.
vestment will be assured, not only by
the general public demand for the
notes, but by the continuing Govern
ment purchase for redemption before
maturity.

Outlook In Oil.

1t is the opinion Of men close to the
oil industry that the turn must come
soon in prices because Of the cond,-
tons in which the industry finds itself.
with the imports from Mexico cut
down drastically, the storing Of crude
oil will not go on so steadily as 1t has
in the past. When the turn does come
supplies will have to be drawn from
storage.
This is a deduction from the crude
oil figures Of the first six months Of
the year. The average domestic pro-
duction of crude oil in that time was
something over 100000 barrels,
whereas consumption of oil. including
exports, was about 100000 barrels.
This difference OF 5000, 900 barrels at
present is offset by the fact that the
industry is selling very little oil for
export.

he had made a statement announcing
a new issue Of Federal Farm Loan
bonds amounting to between sac, 900, :

II made no such announcement nor

mits of such a construction" he said.
The Treasury was considerably en-.
barrassed by the publicity given the
reported new bond issue, II was

the bonds of the previous issue, which
bear only per cent, have not been
