Hardy Plays Great Game

Hardy, right guard, gave an exhi-
pition of guarding seldom seen i'll
high school basketball. His guard
ing of Canine of the Burley team
kept this fleet-footed player from
shooting a single basket.
Burch, the Oakley center, shot
three pretty baskets from long
range, while X. Wilson, standing
guard, did all that was required of
him
For the Burley squad, Jenkins,
who previously made the enviable
record of having scored 32 points
in single game, played the stellar
game. Jenkins is by far the best
free thrower seen in Twin Falls
this season. His accuracy borders
on the uncanny Never does he as
much as hit the blackboard, and We
ry rerely the hoop. His free throw
ing Saturday evening was perfect.
Five field goals were entered next
to his name, with three of these be-
ing of the long distance variety.
Canine, the other forward, al
though playing his usual high-class
game, worked under difficulties as
far as baskets were concerned, s
Hardy of Oakley refused to allow
him even to try for field goal
Kershisnik's playing of guard was
clever, and there is not surer man
in this section in "a thrown ball
His passing Saturday evening was Of
the highest order.
VAfter the game superintendent
Mitchell of the Twin Falls schools
made short presentation speech
giving the victors beautiful silver
cup. Kenneth Wilson, captain o
the Oakley team, responded with a
few remarks, thanking everyone for
the good sportsmanship shown dur
ing the season Just passed.
Nelson, captain of the Burley
team, accepted a second loving cup
for the runners-up, saying that the
best team had won, and that he
hoped Oakley would come back with
the state championship.

FINAL STANDINGS

The Oakley hoopsters won the
basketball championship the
South Central division by defeating
Burley Saturday evening at the
high school gymnasium by the
score of 80 to 10. This game gave
Oakley four straight wins.
Coach Archie Hale of the Oakley
squad has a team that will make a
strong bid for the state title. Their
team work and their wonderful
guarding puts them in class above
their competitors in the recent
trays.
The finals Saturday evening put
the best two teams of this section
together and great game was wit
messed by the overflowing crowd
present.
Hunter, right forward for the vic
tors, carried away the individual
honors. This lad was in every
play, and his clever shooting of bas-
kets from difficult positions ranks
him as the best forward of the tour
nament Larson, his team mate,
shot two baskets from the center of
the floor that were wonders.

ingly of the part which they do not
receive. There thus appears good
ground for the claim that moderate
inheritance taxes, increasing from 1
per cent on inheritances from a GER
tain amount left to direct heirs ever
to as much as 20 per cent of very
big estates passing to collateral heirs
or strangers, do not impose a burden
that is consciously felt by anyone"
The Inheritance tax bill passed by
the house of representatives at its
last session, and now on the senate
calendar, will yield large returns at
a very small cost, and I earnestly
recommend its passage. 1t is esti-
mated that this bill will raise any
where from 100000 to 100000 per
annum. 1t is very probable that had
this bill become q law last year the
state would have received from this
source during the year 1921 approx
imately $4,000 DOC, and yet, again it
may be observed, as in the case of a
tax on incomes, the levy is placed al
ways where there is tax paying abil-
ity.
Tax on Petroleum Products.
A large number OF the states have
placed a tax, ranging from n to
two cents per gallon, on gasoline and
other petroleum products, and it has
been found generally that this tax
yields large returns. In practically
every county of the state there is a
special levy on property for con-
struction and maintenance of high
ways, and it is, therefore, not unfair
that the state should impose a small
tax upon petroleum products, for as

that something in the nature pro-

TURKS LAUNCH
BIG OFFENSIVE
More Than 100000 Troops
Used Against Greeks
In Asia Minor.

PARIS. Aug. 23.-News that the
Turks have launched a great Of
fensive against the Greek front in
Asia Minor was received by the
French government today from the
French high commissioner at Con-
stantinople.
The purpose of the offensive is
to put the Turks in the strongest
possible position at the Venice
peace conference which opens early
in September just as the Greeks
did the same thing in sending an
army to threaten Constantinople.
The spearhead of the Turkish Of
fensive is pointed at Ushak, which
Is on a direct line to Smyrna. The
objective is not only the Smyrna
district which the Greeks pro-
claimed autonomous, but to reduce
the area in Asia Minor held by the
Greek army. More than 100000
troops are being used in the Turk
ish offensive in addition to an equal
amount who are holding the lines
northward.

SENATE and HOUSE
TARIFF CONFEREES
WILL MEET TODAY
Fordney Favors Removal
Of Free Foreign Trade
Zone Provision.

Conferees of the Senate and House
on the tariff bill will hold their
first meeting this morning. Ar
rangements for the meeting were
made yesterday by Senator Nc
Cumber. North Dakota, chairman of
the Finance Committee and Repre-
sentative Fordney, Michigan, chair
man of the House Ways and Means
Committee.
1t is not considered likely that
much progress will be made at to-
days meeting. Probably all that
will be done will be to map out a
general program to govern the work
of the conferees.
Representative Fordney indicated
yesterday his belief that the free
foreign trade zone provision which
was added to the bill on the floor
Of the Senate on the motion of Sena-
tor Jones. Washington. chairman of
the Senate Committee on Commerce,
will be eliminated entirely by the
conferees as being in violation OF
the Constit ltional. provision pro-
hibiting any discrimination between
ports.
Fordney will make an effort to
restore to the dutiable list lumber
items put on the free list in the
Senate.

The soldiers bonus bill got an
auspicious new start in the Senate
yesterday.
In record breaking time. the SEN
ate cleaned up the Finance Com
mittee's amendments and the meas
ure passed into the parliamentary
stage where Individual amendments
are in order. Less than fifteen
minutes were required for the
adoption Of forty-seven committee

IL he knew whether the President

.I have no information on that
subject" replied McCumber. "An !

which caused the President and the
Secretary of the Treasury to seek
delay last year have been met. / dc
not believe he will veto the bill.
Barnes Opposes Measure.
Julius H. Barnes. president Of the
Chamber of Commerce Of the United
States in a letter to members OF
the Senate opposing the bonus bill,
estimates the possible government
deficit for the current fiscal year
will exceed $500. 1000, 900.
In the opinion Of Mr.. Barnes. the
continual excess of government ex
penditures over revenue represented
by government deficits is an obstacle
to economic recovery.
IAN analysis of government ex.
penses shows Mr.. Barnes writes
that $751;, 100000 of our appropria-
tons for the fiscal year 1928 are
chargeable directly to veteran reliei
and pensions.
"Twenty-three per cent of our total
ordinary expenditures of government
for the next year will go toward
the care and rehabilitation of vet
erans Of the world war. II civil
war pensions are added. 35 per cent
of expenditures will go toward re-
lief of war veterans and veterans

LABOR DENOUNCES
KELLOCC'S BILL TO

Says Measure Would Give

Organized labor yesterday opened

Congress last Friday to enable the
government to carry out it's treaty
volved in such affairs as that at
Herrin, Ill.
Representation of the Ameri-
Four Brotherhoods and the Peo-
pies Legislative Service. appeared
before the Senate Foreign Rela-
tions Committee and denounced the
bill on the ground upon their belief
the government strike breaking
acter.
Manly Denounces Bill.
THE circumstances under which
it is being urged show that it's real
object is to put the government into
the business of strike-breaking on
a national scale on the pretext that
the rights of an alien somewhere
may be injured or threatened" de-
clared Basil Manly. director of the
Peoples Legislative Service.
The Peoples Legislative Service
is headed by Senator La Toilette,
Wisconsin; Representative Huddles-
ton. Alabama. and William H. John
ston, president of the International
Association of Machinists.
Under the provisions Of the bill,
Manly continued, Federal troops
can, at the will Of the President,
be sent into every State. not only
without the application of the State
authorities. but even over the pro-
test of the State authorities. I'm
der it's terms Federal troops and
United States marshals may be
used in connection with any local
industrial dispute wherein the
rights of any alien are alleged to
be violated"
New Defends Measure.
Edgar Wallace, spokesman for
the American Federation of Labor
denounced the bill in equally strong
terms and added that 1t could be
used to nullify the California land
law.
Senator New. of Indiana, advo-
Gated the bill on the ground that
the inability of the Federal gov.
