committee representing the larger
creditors of the Donley Shoe company

and Attorney George W. Taylor of Ke-

bility of the sale of the plant as a 90

letter that the affairs of the company
may be readjusted without a heavy

Mr.. Donley, Sr., has been an invalid
for several weeks and confined to the
house. Realizing that operations were
at standstill, the creditors got IN

FALLING TAX RECEIPTS.

While there was OF course a large falling off in
income tax receipts from individual incomes, per-
haps the greatest decline in federal revenues this
year has been in taxes from corporations and other
business and industrial concerns that were unable
to earn any profits last year. This is temporary
condition and aggravated by failure to cut

that set In last year. and from which the nation is
just recovering.
A startling phenomenon OF recent times has been
the heavy borrowing OF concerns that had been ac-
customed to financing most OF their needs out Of
income. when the colossal exactons Of the nation
al tax collector were levied these companies had
either to curta operations supply themselves
with funds at the banks. Business depression cut
much OF taxable profits. inventory adjustments
wiped out more and added interest charges on bor-

But the worst is over. Businesses that scored

accomplished in other directions that already in

been able to apply s1,s70.0oo,00O to reducing the
national debt. While this amount seems inconsid-

UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE
GROWLER.
BY Howard B. CARTS.

Uncle Wiggily Longears, the
bunny rabbit gentleman, was hon
ping along through the green
meadow one morning, wondering
what sort of an adventure he
might have when. all of a sudden.
there was q rustling in the bushes
| and out hopped--Jackie Bow
Wow, one Of the puppy dog boys.
1 hope L didn't disappoint any
of you who thought the Fuzzy
Fox or the Woozie Wolf was going
to pop out of the bushes when
they rustled. Sometimes that hap
pens, but it isn't time for the
scary part of the story yet.
Anyhow, out of the bushes
scrambled Jackie Bow Wow. He
barked and wagged his tail in
friendly fashion at Uncle Wiggily
and cried:
May walk along with you,
Uncle Wiggily? I'm going to the
hollow stump school, and perhaps
you'll hear my spelling lesson on
the way"
Eyes, surely. I'll do that" Of
fered the bunny gentleman. III

spelling"
II almost know my lesson"
whined Jackie. But I'd like yo,l
TO hear me on some of the had
words"
So the bunny gentleman walked
along with the spelling book in
his paw. helping Jackie to learn
the hard words of the days les
son.
There, I know them-every
onel" barked Jackie when they
were almost at the hollow stumn
school. Il know I'll get up to the
head of the class today!"
II hope So" remarked Uncle
Wiggily.
Then Jackie felt SO fine and
clipper that he rushed at a tai
plant. with purplish clusters of
flowers growing on it, and the
doggie boy bit at the plant and
chewed and clawed 1t until il
broke and fell over to one side.
ooh, Jackie! You have broken
the plant, and there was no need
to do it," said Uncle Wiggily sad
~.
Tim sorry" spoke the dog
gle boy. But l just had to bite
and scratch something"
Well, l wish you had bitten or
scratched a stone!" sighed the
plant in a faint voice. "You
couldn't harm stone. But you
have broken me off just when
was blossoming at my best"
I'm sorry" said Jackie again.
But, Of course, being sorry did
not mend the plant. And as
Jackie looked, some white. thick
juice ran out Of the broken part
of the stem,

tears" said the doggie.
Yes" spoke Uncle Wiggily.

There was less selling pressure
