ECONOMY PROGRAM
FORCES REDUCTION
THIS REVENUE OFFICE

Hon. Frank ]. Ham. of this city.
collector Of Internal revenue for the
District of Maine, Monday announced
that beginning the first Of July there
would be a reduction Of 10 percent
in the amount apportioned for this
district for salaries. This will amount
to $4,000 annually and five deputy
collectors and two clerks in the office
will be dropped. The reduction in
the force is simply because Congress
failed to make the necessary appro-
priation.
Commissioner of Internal Revenue
d. II. Blair. in letter to Collector
Ham says that the appropriations
granted by Congress for conducting
the Internal Revenue Service during
the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1923,
have been reduced $3.56S.090 in COM
parison with the total appropriations
granted the Service for the present
fiscal year ending June 80 next.
Because of this reduction in ap-
preparations it will be necessary
throughout all the branches of the
Internal Revenue Service to effect re-
auctions in personel and expenses so
that the Bureau will be enabled to
keep within the appropriations
granted for the coming fiscal year."
continues Commissioner Blair in his
letter.
these reductions must be effec-
tive prior to July /, 1928, the begin
ming Of he next fiscal year, in order
that the authorized forms will not
exceed the total appropriations.
1.-The Bureau has endeavored to
distribute equitably this reduction
among is various branches and the
reduction necessary in tie Field Col
lection Service totals s1.1S2.?9O. or
the equivalent of 10 percent of the
total authorized personel on the basis
of the total salary cost.
"In arriving at the total reduction
necessary in the Collection Service
the Bureau has proportion the reduc-
ton among the 65 collection districts
on the basis of 10 percent of the total
salary cost Of each district. witch ir
your district amounts to $4,000. 1r
other words, it will he necessary tC
effect in your district before Jul!
first next. a reduction in persone
which in annual salary cost will tota
$4,000.
1.-The suggestion has bee nmade the
. Bureau that if collectors SO desire
they may reduce the salaries of some
| of their present personel as an aid II
arriving at the total reduction neces
sary. The Bureau presents this
suggestion for your consideration
with the thought that to effect
general demotion among all of your
employees might not be administra-
lively sound, although your recon-
mendation in this regard will be con-
sidered.
1.-THE Bureau regrets that the re-
duction is necessary, but in view OF
the decreased funds granted by Con-
gress for the conduction OF the In
ternal Revenue Service, this action is
necessary in order that We may
keep within the appropriations. Col
lectors should understand that lr
presenting the methods Of effectins
this reduction. the Bureau has ir
mind but the thought that such sug-
gestions may be helpful to collector
in effecting the total reduction II

Farmers who have registered
stock to sell, will hold sales incon-
nection with the show; Lowe & Pow
ers, owners of the famous Shorthorn
cattle, will dispose of some of their
best breeding stock. There will
also be- a sale of some of the White

Pioneer pure bred hog men are al

POPLAR RANCHER IS
SHOT BY NEICHBOR

Poplar, Oct. Pat Daugherty of
Poplar Monday afternoon shot An
ton Kott who lives a few miles south
of the Missouri river, then came i'm
mediately to Poplar and gave himself
up to Sheriff John Anderson.
There had been bad feeling be-
tween the two men all summer and
Monday Kott, who is an old man,
took his shotgun and corn knife to
the garden where he was transplant
ing strawberries. The two men had
an alteration of some kind and, ac-
cording to reports, Kott started for
Daugherty with the corn knife and
both attempted to gain possession of
the gun.
Daugherty reached it first and
fired the shot, shattering the old
mans left hand and about "a shot
striking him in the breast. He is
