The Department of Safety of the
Chesapeake and Ohio Railway re-
ports decrease of nearly so per
cent in Highway Crossing accidents
on its system during the period Of
The Careful Crossing Campaign"
June lSt to September 30th.
Only four accidents occurred
which resulted in casualties: the
death OF one person and minor in.
JuricS to six others. There were
nine accidents with casualties and
but Sli9ht damage to automobiles Or
engines Of which number one auto>
mobile ran through, crossing gate,
and one ran into the side Of pass
ing train. The only fatality of the
period was caused by driver of car
attempting to cross in front of train,
in high gear and stalling his engine.
When it is remembered that the

GOVERNMENT SHORT.

An estimated deficit OF approxi-
natelN $1,000. 100000 for the fiscal
year OF 1924 pyramidcd on the
$500. .0Ob 400 deficit Of the present
fiscal period thcratcns to engulf the
Harding Administrations economy
programme. The impending deficit
was indicated by preliminar esti-
mates OF the officers or tlic Budget
Bureau. The problem is engroSSing
Government financial advisers and
is likely to compel new tax raising
measures by the next Congress.
Signs Of this financial crisis come
at the inopportunc moment when
SpokeSncn for the Administration
are laying claim to great economy
achievements by the Harding regime
Falling off in revenue is the cause
behind this situation which may
force the taxpayer to dig still deep
cr into his pocket. Income and
profits taxed are to be running
$500; 100000 behind those of last
year while pairing down processes
have reached the limit.
On July II last President Hard
ing addressing the second annual
meeting Of the business organiza-
tion Of the Government in Washig-
ton said the estimated receipts for
the fiscal year Of 1924 would be
S6OO:O0O:0O0 LESS than the appro-
priations for the current year; plus
authorizations for expenditure not
included iii the appropriations" !"
Since then falling off in icomc and
profits taxes has become increasing

WARnINe TO HUNTERS.

Forest fires i'll Mineral county ell
dangering large commercial Or
chards and homes and destroying
acres Of forests has caused Cover
nor Morgan to issue a statement re-
qiesting hunters in wooded areas
to use "every precaution possible
to avert danger to life and property.
Fires started by careless hunters"
and which has spread to such extent
that homes and orchards were
threatened. A drought extending in
some sections for period of five
months has called for extra precall-
tionS to avert forest fires. Extreme
caution should be used by hunters
in the wooded areas of West Virginia
The absence of rain in some sections
of the State for number of months
neccSSitateS the utmost vigilance on
The part Of hunters TO prevent forest
fires that may result in the deStruc-
tion Of large areas of choice timber
and endGnger lives and other prop
erty.

HARDNESS PLAN.

President Harding will make i'm
portant recommendations to Con
gress regarding the future functions
of the Railroad Labor Board soon
after the House and Senate recon-
vene. This became known after Mr..
Harding had considered the situa-
tion with members Of the Cabinet.
Whether Congress will go along
with the administration on new
Railroad Labor Board policy re-
mains of course to be seen. The
two definite facts regarding the
Presidents program in this connec-
ton can be set down at this time
The first is that he wants the Board
strengthened and empowered to
carry into effect its DEGREES. The
second is that he wants that body
removed from Chicago 10 Washing,
ton. How to write penalties into
the Labor Board section of Cummins
ESch' act and what those penalties
ought to be are concrete questions
which Mr.. Harding and his advisers
have not yet found an answer sat
iSfactory 10 themselves. But that
some process should be established
making it unlawful for either the
railroads or the men to flout the
Board is firm conviction on the
part of the chief executive.

AUTO BUSINESS.

The automobile industry has at
last reached a position where it can
be said that today it ranks as the
first industril enterprise in the coun
try; with total output valued at
50, ,865 900 900. The petroleum pro
ducts industry is second with an
output of $2;050 ZOO, 200; of which
DO per cent is gasoline; and which
is dependent on the automobile in
dustry for its business.
The steel industry; long credited
with being the greatest in the Unit
cd Safes; ranks far below the auto
mobile world it is shown with a
total output of products valued at
ST $3.50; ;000;000. The foundry and
machine shop business and the lum-
Der and timlber industries have a
total output Of 81 900, 200, 900 and
1000 respective. This is
largely due; it is said: to the de
mand for lumber and foundry pro-
ducts in the building of motor cars.

CORN PRODUCTION.

Tile corn belt is Uncle Sans lite
belt. To believe this one has ONLY
to Tead what the United States De-
partmcn, Of Agriculture says about
the corn crop in the 1921 Yearbook
which Is Just being distributed.
Corn is II American plant. Aside
from the land itself it is our great
est inheritance from tile red man.
IL has influenced our hiSorv from
the beginning. At present whether
consumed directly Or in the form
Of meat and other animal products
corn is the principal source of food
for the American people.
More tilan 100: 1000; 900 acres of
land is used in raising corn every.
year. This crop requires the work
of millions of farmers since over
three-fourths of the farms of the
country produce some corn. The
total value of the crop in 1920 was
50; $50, 900. Last year almost the
same size crop was WORTH only ST.
3O3;0OO;000 because of the drop in
prices. During and since the World
War conditions have changed so
rapidly that the farmers have had
wide extremes of profit and loss in
growing corn. Only in recent
months have prices begun to i'm
prove. About 60 per cent of the
total corn crop is now used in pro-
dtcing meat and milk products.

This class is one of the largest to
receive the degrees in the history Of
the State.
