The taxes of the Chicago and North
Western Railway System exceed all the

ing the fact that the mileage of the Cana

We publish these facts believing that full
appreciation of the situation will meet

local authorities to stop avoidable expendi-

c. & N. w. RY.

PRESIDENT COOLIDGE has performed
striking service to the public in empha-
sizing the danger that lies ahead of us all
in the constantly increasing burdens of
taxation.
Every merchant manufacturer, banker,
farmer and transportation company is
still struggling under the weight of excess
sive taxes, but probably no class has been
more seriously affected than the railroad
companies.
In the last decade taxes have grown by
leaps and bounds.
A MILLION DOLLARS A DAY. That is
the railroad tax bill. The Federal Govern
ment and most State Governments are
meeting this dangerous condition with
courage and efficiency. The greater part
of taxes is due to local tax levies.
Local governments spend more of the peo-
pies money than do the State and Federal
Governments combined.
If local authorities fully appreciate this
situation, we believe they will adopt COO
LIDGE REMEDIES to bring about econo-
mics and reduce tax levies.
The tax burden on the cost of Transports
tion is enormous. For the last five years

Washington. Aug. 11.-What the
Military men say they do--doubt-

Different schools of experts pre-
dict half dozen or more entirely
different kinds of fighting. Their
predictions conflict, too.
There's no way of adding them
up. dividing bv the total number of
predictions and striking an average.
According to military fundamental
lists the next war will be about the
same old thing. Armies. with infan-
try as their backbones. will fight on
land Navies with battleships q.
their backbones will fight at sea
Aircraft will figure more than ever
before but only as army and navy
auxiliaries. after all. Warfare's
principles haven't changed a bit.
According to the aviation school
the next war will be fought in the
air. Aircraft will wipe out armies
and navies in jig time. The country
with the strongest flying forces will
have the enemy at its mercy before
he realizes a fights started.
His surface defenses and defenders
destroyed, his cities will be bombed
his countryside harried and he'll
have to yield without having {
chance to strike blow.

Whole armies will be gassed il

Amritsar. India. Aug. ll.-CP The
Roosevelt expedition, in quest of rare
animals Of the mountains and junglcs
of Asia. had not decided when it
passed through Kashmir on its way
to the Pamirs, by just what route it
would return or how long its trip
would last. There was some prospect,
it was said, that the tour night be
extended to January and that it was
possible the expedition might be con-
tinued into China and not return to
India.
The expedition, including Coloncl
Theodore Roosevelt, Kermit Roose-
welt, George Cherrie and Mr.. Cutting,
, a cinema operator, made the first
part of its trip into India without in
cident. The members travelled over
, the wellknown route from Srinagar
to Lch and Ladakh. There is abund-
ant game in that section of the coun-
try, but the expedition was interest
cd in getting the owls poll on the
! lofty heights of the PamirS and the
! long haired tiger in the Thianshan
/ mountains Of Chinese TurkcStan.
! The owls poll, or Pamier sheep. is
! not so rare as some may think. but
as it habitatcs the high part of the
! Pamir range. the shooting of it is
made difficult This animal is the
largest of the sheep family and some
times weighs 800 pounds. It's head
! is beautified by its horns, each OF
which grows in to a spiral form, five
to six feet around the curve The
long haired tiger found in the Chi
nese Turkestan regions often grow
to a length of II feet.

re lady his fishing rods and used them
to good advantage for the entire
party in the Dras and Tarkand
rivers.
The progress and success Of the
Roosevelt expedition is being watch
cd with conside rable interest BY
English sportsmen now in India, al
though the news that filters through
is very meager. 1t is much the same
as it was on the last Everest ex-
petition when the news India re-
ceivcd of the mountain climbers was
dated London. Most Of the dispatch
cs that have come through up to thi.
time merely said: "All's we'll with
the Roosevclts." or words to that
effect.
