LARGE HOLIDAY
TRADE HERE
People From Miles Around Do
Their Xmas Shopping In
Julesburg; Extensive Ad-
vertising Brings
Real Results

The merchants of Julesburg are
practically unanimous in their report
of large holiday trade, much larger
than was anticipated. 1t is pleasing
to note that this year there was more
trading at home by the holiday shop
pers than in previous years, this fact
probably being due to the stores be-
ing better prepared to furnish the
particular shopper with various artl-
cles suitable for worthwhile gifts.
People from miles around were no
ticed among the holiday crowds in
the stores of Julesburg, thus indicat-
ing that Julesburg is recognized as
the real trading center of a large ter,
ritory. This fact is being realized
more and more, the result Of extern
sive advertising campaigns Of our
progressive business men. who are
reaching out for an increased volume
of business by the judicious use Of
printers ink. The progressive mer-
chant knows that it is purely busi-
ness proposition to advertise bis
wares through the columns OF the
Grit-Advocate, the paper with the
big circulation, and one that 70 read
by hundreds of readers fifty-two
weeks in the year. The merchant who
does not take advantage of this splen-
did advertising medium land there
are very few in Julesburg) is over
looking real business opportunity as
we'll as laying down on his share OF
the job in making Julesburg = bigger
trading center.
As an appreciation Of the business
received and the pleasant relations
during the past twelve months, a
large number of the merchants have

COOLIDGE OPPOSES
CANCEL|NG DEBTS
Thinks u. S. Need Not Press
Europe for Payment, But
Hits Gift Plan.

President Coolidge is unalterably
opposed to the cancellation by the
United States Of the debt owed it by
the European countries, it was said
yesterday at the White House.
The Presidents views on cancella-
ton were reiterated when his atten-
tion was called to reports OF state
ment that Walter W. Head of Oma-
ha, newly elected president of the
American Bankers Association, had
urged cancellation. Mr.. Head later,
however, denied the authenticity of
the remarks attributed to him.
The President feels that the United
States should not unduly press any
of it's debtors and should be liberal
in the settlement 1t makes. An in
stance of the desire to be liberal Is
contained. in the Presidents opinion,
in the settlement reached with Great
Britain, which from strict mathe-
matical viewpoint was re-
leasing OF Great Britain from n
portion OF its obligation. Debt
questions are in the hands of
the funding commission created by
act Of Congress and the position of
Mr.. Coolidge is that the United States
may only make settlement within the
terms of that act.

Dc. BUDGET PLEA
( READY THURSDAY
Commissioners to Be Armed
With Data on $4,000.
600 Estimates.

!. Fortified with facts and figures to-
show how rapidly the city Is grow
ing, the Commissioners will go be-
tore the budget bureau at $3.50
o'clock Thursday morning in support
Of the estimates of s32,ooo.oo0 for
the next fiscal year.
Maj. Daniel J. Donovan, budget
officer for tho local government, re-
ceived word from Gen. Lords Office
this morning that the budget COM
mittee would be ready at that time
TO hear the local authorities. The
hearings probably will take up sew
eral days.
Commissioners Rudolph, Oyster and
Bell and Maj. Donovan will be the
principal witnesses, but they VIII be
accompanied each day by the heads
OF those departments whose needs
are under discussion.
=: Ready for Questions.
These department chiefs will be
available to answer any questions OF
detail on which the budget officers
may request enlightenment.
While tho Commissioners will make
oral explanations of the items asked
for in the regular estimates of $685.
I4<,S32, they will concentrate their
efforts on the task of convincing the
budget officials that they also should
allow the urgent supplemental prof.
ects, amounting to $7,103.0S4.
The budget bureau already has been
advised in writing by Maj. Donovan
that If the Limitation Of s25,000,o00
stands as final 1t will actually mean
less money for appropriations proper
next year than was granted by Con-
gress for the current year.
He has explained that when allow
ance is made out of the S25, 100000 for
trust and special funds the remainder
for appropriations proper is s23,S77,-
S20.50. But this figure still includes
the water departments expenditures.
which are paid for out of water rev.
enues. so that the amount which
the federal government must meet
40 per cent--is even still less.
By comparing current appropria-
ttons for schools, new streets. sewer
extensions and similar work with the
amount asked for in the regular esti-
mates for next year for the same de-
partments. Maj. Donovan shows that
the funds for public improvements
under the regular estimates are less
than the Commissioners now have.
The Commissioners are extremely
anxious to win the budget bureaus
approval OF the supplementals, be-
cause they found last year that they
could not discuss before the appro-
priations committees of the Senate
and House any items that did not re-
ceive the sanction OF Gen. Lord.
