Recommendation OF the Secre-
tary of the Treasury to increase the
tax levies on the automobile indus
try from $16O,OOO,OOO year to
$3.50 100000 have aroused the ire Of
auto manufacturers. They term the
proposed tax increase an unjust dis
elimination against the industry and
have served warnings they will vigor-
ously oppose its adoption.

Have you an abandoned water
filled quarry near your home? If
you have, you'd better probe around
in it and see what it contains. Au-
thorities in Elgin, ILL.,, recently
found that such a quarry had been
made the burial grounds for numer-
Gus cars which had been reported
lost or stolen. Dishonest owners
who wanted to collect insurance, or
thieves in fear of being caught had
sunk them in the deep water.

built 400 years ago by the Spaniards,
but is still in excellent condition,
admirably suited for motor travel.
The road winds the length of the

often skirting the edges Of preci-
pieces with a sheer drop Of 1000 feet
or more. The road was built by
slaves and is considered wonderful
feat of engineering.

Rome, Dec. 23.-"Faced with
financial and economic crisis which
each day is becoming more critical.
the one hope Of Greece is in the
success of Premier Gounaris. If he
returns empty-handed from his tour
of the allied capitals. as all foreign
ers here conversant with the real sit
fuation believe will be the case. the
cabinet will not only totter. but the
news of the failure is likely to cause
a sudden revulsion of feeling similar
to that in November last year. when
Venizelos was expelled and Constan
tine recalled to the throne, with re-
suits which we cannot fpresee at
present. Meanwhile the drachma
continues to fall and American bus
mess is virtually at a standstill."

Once town gets into the catalogue
class-the condition whereby citizens. ad-
dict themselves to robbing their commu-
nifty by sending their money to distant
potnts--that town becomes a back num-
Der and its restrogression is markedly
rapid. Wilson at the present time
boasts of a commercial population OF
which l. city twice its size could be insti-
fably proud fand whose success has been
due largely to the BUY at Home" sense
of our people. Wilson people. or at least
the great majority of them, have come to
realize that they profit most by mingling
their dollars right here at home and that
in a short circle of time, these same dol
lars keep coming back to them.
However, on the other hand there is
certain percentage of our population that
yields to the enticing literature and propo-
sitions of the socallel catalogue houses"
bite at the bait offered wrap up their
hard-earned dollars and ship them hun
dreds of mile away. Unlike the proven
bial cat, they never come back and the
city is just that muG.l poorer
We believe that the women should be
the first to join in the movement looking
toward keeping business at home. Our
local merchants are, in a position to fur
nish anything and everything at prices
that will compare and many time go be-
low the bait of the catalogue houses and
the more promptly this is realized the bet
ter will be conditions here
The .soft-soapiug' corps of solicitors
offering prizes for local money and loading
up household with articles for which they
will not .1ave use for many months to come,
is but an instance of the movement OF
money-grabbing corporations to weaken
the financial condition of a community by
taking away from the town a certain per-
centage of it's circulation of money. A
continuation by our citizens of this nib
bling at the bait is certain to mean a con-
tinuation of certain business conditions and
we ask men and women addicted to this
habit, to stop and consider-and finally to
realize that every catalogue dollar that is
sent away from town disappears forever.
