Burnley CAMPAIGN !:
COMES TO CLOSE
Complete Figures Were Not Obtain
able Last Night, But Success
Seems Assured
WORKERS SAY SO PER CENT

That the business men of Paris
were fully alive to the benefits they
will realize from the success of the
tobacco marketing plan was evident
yesterday when many houses were
closed for the day, while the mer-
chants Joined the forces soliciting
unsigned growers for the Association
contract. 1t was a one-day whirl-
wind campaign, lasting far into the
night, long after THE NEWS had
gone to press. For that reason we
are unable to give the exact figures
in the campaign. At the court
house, headquarters of the move
ment, it was stated last night that
Bourbon county, would, with few
growers yet on the outside, reach a
total of ninety-nine per cent. of the
crop signed up.
All the regular workers and every
business man in Paris who could
spare the time to devote to the
work, was out with the soliciting
SQUADS, and reported great success.
The names and addresses OF those
who were unsigned were furnished
the workers, who went to the homes
of the growers and made personal
pleas for the plans success. The ex-
act amount of tobacco signed up was
not known as THE NEWS went to
press last night, but leaders in the
work were Of the. opinion that the
estimate of ninety-nine per cent.
would be very close to the mark.
Just before THE NEWS forms
closed last night the best figures OBJ
tainable from headquarters were as
follows: A total of 1,576 con-
tracts representing 9,705,764
pounds of tobacco, grown on 1926
acres, had been signed up in the
drive. Sixty-five autos were en-
ployed in transporting the workers
and one hundred extra workers
were busy throughout the day be-
sides the regular forces. F.
Bourbon county's going lover the
top in the hurley tobacco market
ing campaign is matter for con-
gratulatiOns not only for those who
worked so hard and faithfully to at
tain this end, but to the growers and
general public as we'll. The bene-
fits that will accrue if the Associa-
ton is a success will go to every
one who lives in tobacco growing
section. Furthermore, 1t may be
truly said that no movement was
ever so heartily supported in all
quarters. From the outset OF the
campaign there were some doubters
and opponents, but it is believed
events and the ultimate success OF
the campaign convinced even those.
The banks and merchants and the
press have all given their heartiest
support to the movement, and to the
organizers and solicitors.
There is, of course, reason for
this united front. The logic of the
plan and the fairness which has
| been displayed by the organizers has
| had much to do with it.
The motto on the great seal of the
State of Kentucky can not be better
| exemplified than by the growers OF
our principal money crop getting to.
gether without exception. United We
stand, divided we fall" And to-day
| it looks as if the tobacco growers Of
Kentucky are going to stand togeth'
er and win great and lasting vic
| tory.

MISTAKE IN THE LOCATION
Despite Walters Assertion, Traveller

The late William Dean Howells was

"The Spaniards, especially the
southern Spaniards, have enormous
families. Eight children is the aver
age. and families of 16 and II chill
dren are quiet common.
"But they don't know how TO raise
these children. They take babies Of
three or four months travelling with
them. In every hotel and train there
are sure to be as many babies as
adults.

PREDICTS CUT OF
BILLION IN US. TAX
OHIO CONGRESSMAN SAYS BIG
REDUCTION IN FEDERAL
EXPENSES LOOMS.
CRITlCISES EXCESS PROFITS TAX
Short Period Of Deflation Is All That
Stands In Way Of Period of
Prosperity.

Detroit.-"The present congress is
going to cut charges on, the govern
ment treasury TO the very bone," de-
clared Congressman Simeon ID. Fess
of Ohio, principal speaker at the 30th
annual banquet of the Detroit Real
Estate board.
-Four billions, the estimate made
by the secretary of treasury as nee
essary to be raised by taxation during
the year, should be cut down a billion
dollars by reducing the cost of gov
eminent" said Mr.. Fess. THE re-
duction of the army to reasonable
size, the discontinuance of a naval
program that contemplates dread
noughts costing $40,000,000 and the
elimination of superfluous jobholders
in Washington will make this pos
sible."
Congressman Fess characterized the
excess profits tax as the most fool
ish piece of legislation ever drawn"
He advocated its repeal and the
elimination of high ranges in the in
COhic IdA ouSBCSIhlb lhSbSdu al III
crease in the corporation tax from 10
to 10 per cent, an increased tax on
tobacco and cigarets increased post
age, a stamp tax and restoration of
import duties similar to those in the
Aldrich bill.
A short period of deaation is all
that stands between the country and
a period of prosperity ahead. he said.
Slowly debating prices, better rela-
tionship between labor and capital,
and increased production revealed a
healthy trend
The Ohio representative scored the
policy of loaning money abroad and
urged that further loans be made by
private enterprise. He decried all
government financing and urged that
price setting be not resumed.

dies price fixing" he declared.
