silk goods buyer for Emery Brown
Co. in this city gave an interesting
talk on silk" Miss Parkin told an
interesting story of the discovery Of
silk by n little Chinese Empress,
who. while walking in her garden one
day observed some Catapillars spin
ming threads into cocoons on null
berry leaves. She watched the pro-
cess and becoming curious as to the
strength of the threads, tried weav-
ing them into stronger strands of
thread. Becoming successful in her
attempt she was overjoyed and later
had a piece Of cloth wove from the
silken strands. THIS, the speaker
declared to be the origin of one Of the
largest industries in the world.
There was a time, she said, that
wool reigned supreme but today silk
fabrics are paramount the world
over. Tho speaker called attention
to the fact that in spite of all at
tempts that have been made 10 raise
silk in this country. from Maine to
California. it has been a failure and
Japan today has the largest raw
silk production in the world. The
United States, however. had the most
silk manufacturing plants and the
largest of these is located at South
Manchester. Conn, the Cheeny Mills.

The second option is educational

Mr.. Maher recalled that following
every war up to the World war tie

er the Revolutionary war the sol
diers refused to disband until Cor

wars to the American soldiers. Three

diers of the Civil war as bonus.
| The Legion and committee from

after more titan 40 bills had been

| THE bill was vetoed on the as
sumption that we couldn't afford. it,"
declared the speaker, land that was
! false then and is false now"
At the end of 1922 there was a
surplus in the l.. S. treasury of S313,-
| 0UOOO instead of deficit Of S24.-

like manner for 1923 there was a
surplus $500, 100000 in the L.. S,

The present bill has eliminated
the cash payment made necessary
by the bill vetoes and this bill will
not cost over $S0,0OO,O0O a year.
! Mr. Mellon came forward and
| urged tax reduction on account
of the million dollar surplus in the
treasury. appealing to the most self
| instinct OF the people, that of tax
paying.
Mr.. Maher recalled that a big tax
reduction had taken place in 1922.
Mr.. Maher asked his audience to
remember that the other countries
In the war had given their soldiers
compensation and Canada had given
her men $500 apiece. while the
United States had paid her service
men $50 each.
He urged in closing that every ey-
service man ought to get busy and
write letter to the congressman
or this district and to one man for
whom l have great deal of respect,
