PRES|DENT'SDEBT
CLAIMS ATTACKED
Hull Says Democrats Made
Much Better Record
After War.

Charging President Harding's claim
that since 1920 the cost of the fed
eral government had been reduced
for 1919 and 1920, to be grossly
misleading" Chairman Hull of the
democratic national committee. in a
statement issued, goes on to say, in
part:
I'm the first place, the democratic
administration paid off $4,000, 100000
OF the national debt during the eight
cen months prior to March 4. 1921,
or at the rate of $1,650.000,00 a year.
The Harding administration then as
sumed control and during the past
twenty-eight months has paid off only
or at the rate Of s6S5,O00,00O a year.
and which payments it proposes here
after to reduce to $500,000,000 a year.
The full facts thus reveal an en-
tirely different story.
Secondly, as to the Presidents
claim of tax reductions, emitting the
repeal of a few small miscellaneous
taxes, the Harding administration.
through its internal tax revision law,
has only reduced taxes in the eSti-
mated amount of $500. 900. 900. These
reductions comprise the repeal of the
remainder of the excess profits tax,
$3.50, 900, 900: reduction of high income
surtax rates, both resting upon the
very rich. 100000. and % reduction
TO the smaller income taxpayers Of
S90 100000.
TT is true that the government rev.
enues for 1920 were S5,722, 600, 600,
whereas they have fallen to S3.753,-
100000 for the fiscal year 1928, or
reduction of S2,0O0. 900. 900. The total
income and profit taxes for 1920 were
s3.956.000, 900, and for 1928 they are
S1,650,000,00 The fact is here re-
vealed that nearly $1,000. 600, 900 of
this tax reduction was not effected
by statute, but by the republican in
dustrial panic of 1921 and 1922. Dur
ing the panic incomes were wiped
out and taxes correspondinsly wiped
out.
mo one knows better than the
President that it is the history of all
wars, including the late civil war,
that the peak of both government re-
ceipts and expenditures has always
been reached after the cessation of
hostilities I regret, therefore, that
the President feels obliged to at
tempt to bolster up the republican
pretense of real and permanent re-
duction Of expenditures by undertak-
ing to make a. far-fetched compart-
SON of present-day expenditures. in
part. with those of the period which
embraced the maximum of war actiV-
tiles and expenditures"

IUCOS[AV TROOPS
ALARM BULGARIA
Three Divisions Concentrated
on Frontier Stir Fear
of Occupation.
by WALTER COLLINS.

By Wireless TO The Star and Chicago Daily
News. Copyright. 1879.
SOFIA, June 2S-The continued
presence of three Jugoslav divisions
concentrated along the Bulgarian
frontier is giving rise to renewed
feelings of apprehension here. In
Tpetritch, a town in southwestern
Bulgaria with a Macedonian popu-
lation. great alarm was caused by
reports that Jugoslavs and Greeks
were contemplating the occupation of
the town Jointly.
Sofa Coup Internal.
The recent coup in Sofia is regard
ed by Europe as a purely internal
matter. The British and Italians
have made unofficial diplomatic rep
reservations in Belgrade warning the
Serbians that any military measures
they undertake will be loked upon
unfavora bly,. The Jugoslavs have been
impressed by the position taken
by the allies. but are keeping armed
forces near the frontier to clear up
affairs that might easily be followed
by serious trouble.
So far Bulgaria has taken no mill
tary steps and Foreign Minister
kalfsav declared to the writer this
morning that the new Bulgarian
government wishes peace. However,
II the SerbianS cross the frontier
Bulgaria will mobilize Immediately.

BOARD HIGH AT So.
Letters of Senator of 1846 Give
Idea of Living Costs Then.
From the New York Herald.

Under direction of the state of
Maine Arthur ]. Staples, editor OF the
Lewiston (Me.D Journal, has assem-
bIed and published q series of letters
written during the first half of the
last century by John Fairfield, an
outstanding figure in the states po-
litical life Of that time.
Fairfield served Maine IS chier ex-
ecutive from 1898 to 1S42. Before
that, from 1896 to 1888, he had been
one of the states representatives In
Congress- and on retiring from the
governorshfp he was elected to the
United States Senate. He served in
that body until 1847. He died when
fifty years old.
The papers just published are the
letters which the absent husband sent
to his wife. Although living costs in
Washington and Augusta as revealed
in much detail in the letters them
selves seem low as compared with
the staggering sums now exacted,
they appear to have been too high.
in view Of his personal resources
and the meaSer salaries paid public
officials in those days, for Fairfield
to share with his wife, the years Of
his exile in state and national capi-
tails When he was in Washington,
for instance, he notes that he paid
no less than 50 a week for room rent
with board included, and while he
was governor and living in Augusta
he paid S14 a week for the suite of
rooms he occupied and in which he
held his formal receptions.

SAN FRANCISCO Calf, June Is
Control Of chiLdren's diseases, the
relative new science OF pediatrics, has
brought about one of the greatest
drops ever noted in mortality rates
and has constituted an unsurpassed
accomplishment in the field of public
health. This statement was made
here yesterday by Dr. John A Foote
of. Washington, D. c., president of the
Association OF American Teachers of
Diseases of Children, in an address
before the convention of the society.
Badness" and 'spoiledness'' are in
sense diseases" that physicians
must take cognizance OF, DIR. Foote
declared. They may be cured" he
said, by the practice of applied psy-
chology.
The mother who kisses her baby's
hurt to make it well is relying on the
power of suggestion quite as def
nttely as the much h-advertised NJ
-Coue. Children are very suggestibIe;
most of their knowledge comes
through initiating their elders. Merry
ons' children usually have nervous
mothers. AS Secretary Hoover said
in an address before the American
Child Hygiene Association, "A great

ing today that are potential sources
of war" These included:
Diminishing the at present indls-
pensable natural resources. the eco,
nomic industrial struggle, national
jealousy and intolerance, racial dill
ferences probably impossible to com
promise, the compelling necessity OF
fertile populations to expand lnto
undeveloped spaces, trade anpltlon
for control of sea routes. and eco
nomic and political effects OF reVo-
lutionary disturbances"

The Mount of Olives.
From the Kansas City Times.


The Mount OF Olives is q ridee-also
called Oitvet-on the east side of Jeru-
salem, distant from the city about half a
mile. and separated from it by the
Valley Of Jehoshaphat. It Is inti-
mately associated with some of the
most important events narrated in
the Old and New Testaments, such
as the flight of David during Abso-
lom's rebellion, the idolatry of Sol
omon, the triumphal entry of Christ
into Jerusalem. His agony and be-
trayal, and His ascension The hill
was at one time covered with olive
trees a few only of which remain at
the present day. Gethsemane lay at
it's foot on the western side, and
Bethany on it's eastern slope. The
central summit is crowned with a
church which, according to Tradition
marks the spot of the Ascension,
Other authorities. however. say that
this event occurred near Bethany.
