Mellon Reduction Favored
Washington CA P.) President
Coolidge is strongly inclin ed8toward
the Mellon tax reduction program and
is expected by some of his advisers to
endorse it flatly in his message to
Congress. Such endors ement, in the
opinion of administration officials,
would be sufficient to sweep aside
such opposition as there has been
among Republican leaders to tax re-
vision at the coming session.

NATIONAL FRATERNITIES
BUILD Big Club HOUSE

New York-(A. P0-College fra
ternity men are the latest New
Workers to turn cIiff-dwellers.
The high price of lodgings, which
has driven many families from priv

has caused members of various fra
ternity clubs to seek a common roof.
To meet this need the Fraternity
Clubs building, a sixteen story struc-
ture, is being erected at Madison
Avenue and 38th street.
Members of the various clubs, near
ly all of them college graduates, will
have their own private club quarters
and sets of sleeping rooms, but while
they may lounge and s1umber under
the Greek emblems of their brother
hoods, they will eat and exercise in
SUM.
The house committee will comprise
representative of each particular
club. National Headquarters of several
fraternities will be located in the
building.
Serving on the honorary board of
the housing committee are Newton D.

RAIN ENDS PERIOD OF
EXCEPTIONAL WEATHER

The first rain of any consequence
since early fall commenced falling
this morning, following many weeks
of continuous good weather, which
enabled the Palouse country farmers
to get their fall seeding done in good
time, and with the ground in the
best of condition. The fall wheat has
a good stand, and is in excellent con-
dition towithStand the winter
weather. Much of the wheat, which
was planted Immediately following
the harvest, reached a growth which
made good pasture, and many farm
ers have pastured their stock on their
wheat for the past several weeks.
Farmers in the Moscow district say
that it is seldom that they have been
able to go into the winter with their
farm work cleaned up as it is this
year. Much extra work has been
done on the farms, including plowing
for spring seeding, while fruits and
vegetables were taken care of with
out any loss. The long period of
good weather has enabled the farm
ers to do the greater part of this work
without employing extra help

ESCH-CUMMINS ACT
DEFENDED BY GRAY
UNION PACIFIC PRESIDENT DE-
CLARES CHANGE WILL BRING
COUNTRY CALAMITY :.

Omaha, Neb.-The country can
not afford to tamper with the Esch-
Cummins railroad law, which at
tempts to insure fair return to rail-
roads on their investment, Carl r.
Gray president of the Union Pacific
system, said recently in an address in
which he discussed talk of the pos
sible attempts to repeal this 1egis-
1ation.
Speaking "as one business man to
another Mr.. Gray declared that
while the roads under the existing
law had made great progress toward
fair earnings, still the law has had
no chance to operate in normal
year, adding that it would be dis
astrous" to the carriers if adverse
legislation were enacted at this time.
Chance for Credit
Mr.. Gray asserted that the rail-
roads though not yet earning fair
return on their Investments" had
been given an opportunity under the
law to partially reestablish their
credit. ~is
''Those opposing the present law
want government ownership, he
said, but it is only needful to point
to two roads on this continent to
show the effect of such ownership
and it's cost. The Candadian Pacific
system, under private operation, is
prosperous and paid ten per cent
dividends on their stock, besides ad-
ding to it's surplus, while the Canad-
ian National government owned, IS
barely able to earn its operating ex-
penses under the same rates and
conditions.''
Dealing with the subject of rates
in this country, he said that as high
as they are they have not increased
in proportion to the commodities
carried by the roads or the things
they must buy, such as lumber, coal
and labor.

IDAHO BASKETEERS
OPEN UP PRACTICE
STRENGTH OF BASKETBALL
TEAM Is VET UNKN0WN-R-
MILAN GREATEST COACH

Preliminary practice has already
been started for the 1923-24 Vandal
basketball squad Idaho is starting
this season with the dope decidedly
against her as a third-time champion,
but those in close touch with the sit
uation say it is not unlike that of
three seasons ago when the Vanda1s
knocked the dope dizzy and took the
circuit pennant their first season.
Idaho will not be oversupplied with
veteran material, for the greater part
of the team which blazoned her name
in the hoop world have been gradual
ed. The squad this year will be with
out Alex Fox, all-Pacific forward, Os-
wald Thompson, Harry Edwards,
Adrian Nelson, Bill Gartin, a veritable
basketball team in themselves.
TeIfOrd Is Captain
Those back are Harold Telford, all
Pacific coast guard, who will
captain the team; Benny Keane,
guard; Bob Fitzke center; and Percy
Etyner, guard.
David Macmillan, basketball coach,
who has already given Idaho in two
seasons more championships than she
has ever had before, is reputed to
be a great developer of raw material
This year he will have plenty to work
on and in the potentiality of that
yet unknown quantity lies the an
swer to Idaho's chances on the hard
wood floor this season.
Arrangements are under way to
schedule a string of games during the
Christmas holiday period. Until that
time Idaho's strength will be very
much in doubt.

english PRINCES BOOST
CROWDS AT CABARETS

London-(A. P.)-The popularity
of the cabaret and the evening dances
in Londons fashionable West End
restaurants is returning, and the
reason therefore seems to be in no
small measure due to the Prince of
Wales and his brothers.
Immediately after his return from
the Far East, the Prince appeared at
several we'll known restaurants for
the late supper and dance, accom-
panied generally by the Duke of York
or Prince Henry, and a party of
friends. Alison since the return of
the Prince from Scotland he has been
seen at several of these dances, and
so have his two brothers.
The Royal visitors applaud heartily
the entertainment and music, but only
occasionally take part in the dane
ing. The mere fact that they are
present, however, is enough for the
West Enders, and the places are
crowded nightly in the hopes that
some member of the royal family will
be present.

VANDALS NOW OUT
TO DEFEAT U. S. c.
"AN IDAHO TEAM MAY BE DE-
FEATED BUT NEVER LICKED'
-TROJANS NEXT

| Idaho's Vandals are far from out
of things. "An Idaho team may be
defeated but never licked
Idaho's scrappy football players
were defeated by the Cardinals of
Stanford at Palo Alto Saturday but
this coming Saturday the Vandals
will meet the Trojans of U. S. G. at
Los Angeles. Despite the fact that
u. S. c. won from Stanford and that
Stanford won from Idaho there are
those who believe that the Vandals
will take the TrOjans.
The season has been one of upSetS
right straight through An Idaho
victory will be in accord with the
seasons results and the chances are
reasonably good.
CalifOrni Bears Win
California again won the accredit-
ed championship of the Pacific coast
by winning from Washington at
Berkeley on Saturday, while O.. A. G.
and w. S. c. battled to to tie.
California will be given the credit of
the best eleven on the coast by vir-
tue of her victory over the Huskies.
The Vandals are still in the run
ming, however, for foremost recogni-
tion. Idaho is now on the hardest
trip ever undertaken by any Pacific
coast conference team-three hard
games on one trip. In the first game
the Vandals won from o. A. c., to
0, thereby again demonstrating, in the
light of Saturdays w. S. GOA. G.
game, Idahos superiority over w. S.
G. i zNs4
Oregon Out OF Game
Oregon is substantially out Of the
running and will probably be defeat
ed by the strong Oregon Aggie ma
IL, IUac ~ ie nrrf
through California's victory and
Stanford has been beaten by U. S. S.
Hence, Idahos game with the U. S. G.
team is of considerable Importance.
A week of acclimation in the warm
er climate of southern California will
make the Vandals stronger against
u. S. G. than they were against Stan
ford. The long hard trip from Boise
to Palo Alto had its results in last
Saturdays game. 1t is to be remem-
bered that Stanford looked upon the
Idaho game as a mere practice con-
test" and the Stanford memory will
probably be longe enough so that
next year the aCrdinals will not re-
gard the Idaho eleven as a practice
set-up.'
Telegrams Sent Wholesale
kilograms were sent out whole
sale Saturday night to Coach Math-
ews,, the team, and individual mem
bers of the the team. Idaho fans are
far from discouraged. They wanted
to win but the game is over and all
interest is now centered on the u S.
C. game.
With the last game of the year on
Saturday fans are beginning to pom
der on the possibilities of next year.
Coach Mathews will have every play
er on the 1928 eleven, except Abe
GOff to work with in 1924.

.BORAH TO OPPOSE
HOPE OF JOHNSON
IDAHO SENATOR STILL THINKS
COOLIDGE SHOULD BE CIV
EN- CHANCE

Washington-Hiram Johnson, as a
candidate for the republican presi-
Dental nomination will not have the
support of Senator Borah of Idaho,
Senator Norris of Nebraska or for
mer Senator Kenyon (now federal
judge of Iowa, while flinging his hat
in the ring as leader of the progress
i've wing of the Republican party,
1t is said.
Johnson, it is alleged, is to be de-
MED the support of these three pro-
gressive Republicans largely on the
ground that they do not regard him as
q progressive either as to his beliefs
or as to his actions. The fact that
these three powerful progressives are
hostile to Johnson is expected to
prove detrimental to his prospects,
for Borah, Norris and Kenyon each
represent a material faction in the
Republican party.
Challenge JOhnsOn's Stand
This progressive trio has for some
time refused to recognize Johnson as
a progressive, have repeatedly, IN
private conversations, pointed to
Johnsons record in the senate as not
only showing him to be anything but
progressive, but as actcally demon
strating that in all practical ways he
the party, although stlll publicly pro-
claiming himself progressive.
Senator Borah still stands by his
declaration made Immediately after
President Harding was buried, that
he believes President Coolidge should
have full opportunity to make good.
Kenyon Out OF Race ..
Senator Kenyon, often represented
as a candidate himself, is said not to
aspire to presidential honors at least
in 1924, and the real attitude of Sena-
tor Norris, as regards all candidates,
is not known. 1t is known, however,
that he is out of sympathy with the
johnson movement, and will not sup
port the Californian.
Incidentally, it is understood some
of the hostility of som of these sena-
tors is traceable to the fact that john
sons representatives have been quiet
ly spreading the report that these
three are for Johnson, without taking
the trouble to inquire of Borah, Nor
ris or Kenyon, whether they would
consent to be so called.

idaho CASH TOTAL
over 100000
BOOKS SHOW $2,665,46 In VAULTS
AS ON OCTOBER 25

Boise-Idaho had a total of $2,-
665, ,426 in cash deposited in banks of
the state at the close of business
October %, according to an audit of
the state treasurer's office complet-
ed by B. E. Hyatt, director of public
accounts.
The money is divided as follows:
Three Boise banks -..... $3S6,14O
National Park bank, N. Y. 349,315
All other Idaho banks -. 1,929,971
lOtaI -91,ooo,f AZ
In addition to this amount the
treasurer's books show cash items
amounting to $163,745, making the
grand total $2,S29,172.
The audit was made to balance the
amounts of money shown in accounts
kept in the treasurer's office against
those kept in the auditors office. The
disposition of trust funds was also
checked. Mr.. Hyatt's report to the
governor shows that funds and
amounts shown in each office agree.
To establish the correctness of the
state treasurer's records showing the
amount on deposit in the more than
100 banks used for state funds, verifi-
cation statements were sent to each
bank asking for the states balance
as of October 25, 1928. Reports have
been received from all these banks
TIr. Hyatt says, and the balances
shown agree with what the treasurer
shows he had on deposit that day
