Asks for Appropriation of
S3,O18,O69,946,


WASHINGTON. Dec. 10.-President
Coolidge in a special message trans
hitting the budget for the 1925 fiscal
year. today called on Congress to re-
duce taxes at once.
He Endorsed in full the Mellon pro.
gram to cut taxes S329,O0O, 900.
He opposed the soldier bonus as
deadly to all hopes of tax relief and
not az proper obligation to the
veterans.
The time has come. ne said. to share

by reducing the tax burden.
Rigorous adherence by Congress to

budget VIII be defeated. Mr. Coolidge
declared.
For his part. he VIII guarantee that
executive departments responsible TO
him will "hew TO the line he told
Congress.
The budget transmitted by Mr.
Coolidge provided for Government ex
penditures Of $3,298 ,0S0, 444 during the
1925 fiscal year. s2SG.957, GA less than
during the current year and the low
est yearly expenditure Of the Govern
ment s.nce before the war.
Specifically, the executive asked for
appropriations Of $3.01S.069 GAG. the

that Congress makes some appropria-
tons which carry over from year to

Flagman Sent Back

The engineer brought the train to
standstill within half a mile and
backed up to investigate, believing
that the occupants of the automobile
had been killed. A f1agman was sent
back to stop the following section Of
the limited.
laundering through the fog and
rain close behind, Engineer Patter-
son saw the flare" warming but too
late to stop his heavy train.
An eyewitness, Malcolm Near. who
is proprietor Of the village garage
at Forsythe, said;
For a minute-it seemed a mil
lion years-there was absolute
silence. Only the fog and rain and
the men standing around Then, my
God. 1t was awful, screams, shrieks,
men crying out in agony-I tell you
it was too awful.
IT ran over as quick as could. So
did the rest. I think, though. that I
led the way. We didn't know what
to do first"
Those who were killed were all in
the rear car. The two cars ahead
were knocked off the tracks, but their
occupants were only shaken. Those
in the forward part of the train felt
the jar, but that was all. The loco
motive crumpled up the observation
end of the rear car and cut into the
compartments, killing the passengers
in their berths. In order to extricate
the victims it was necessary for volun-
teers to go in through a gaping hole
in the roof, disentangle the bodies
from the wreckage and host their re-
mains out through the gap.
Passengers from the forward cars
hurried back and assisted in spread
ing out blankets by the rails so the
injured could be cared for.
A number of baseball men, includ-
ing John A. Heydler, president Of the
National League, joined in this work.
One Of the first victims removed
dead-was "Wild Bill" Donovan,
known to all baseball fans. Heydler
and the others swung axes and worked
frantically to get out the dead and
injured in the Pickering light of
torches and lanterns.

Further realizing took place at the
start Of the second hour, but the man

onstrated that the market had con-
served its technical strength. On the

were pleased to see time taken for the

is undertaken. While this was true

specia!ties moved into new high

GUNS

m HE fall hunting season will be

guns and some are buying new ones.
The making of guns calls for
skilled labor and as in other indus
tries of that type, labor cost repre-
sents the greatest factor in the man
ufacture. out Of every dollar the
gun manufacturer receives, according
to figures Of the United States Gov
ernmetn, 50 cents goes to labor and
q cents goes to materials with 80
cents the TOLL Of profit and overhead
including taxes.
\ 10 per cent wage increase would
increase the cost As cents for every
dollar the manufacturer receives
while 10 per cent more for materials
