Kendall and Ramssy's Store 10 Near.
ly Completed


The new store being built by F. X.
Vigue, contractor, for the Kendall
and Ramsey Company on Mason's
Corner, is very near completion.
The grocers moved their goods into
the new part on Friday. and al
though it is not quite finished, it
already presents a very attractive
appearance. The front Of the store
shows two very large display win
dows. and has a wide piazza the
entire length of the front. This
piazza is low, making 1t very easy
to step up and down from and to the
ground, and the ground before the
store is level. thus insuring greater
safety to customers during the time
when the ice and snow are on the
ground.
The post Office is at the left Of the
entrance door as 1t has always been,
and customers gladly welcomed the
heat that came from the new one
pipe furnace on such cold days as
Thursday, Friday and Saturday. to
say nothing Of the extreme ones
which are to come.
The splendid, large rent over the
store is to be occupied by Mr.. and
Mrs. Ramsey, who expect to move to
their new quarters from the Withee
house where they now reside. in
about three weeks.
The whole place is most decidedly
improved under the expert workmen
employed by Contractor vigue, and

COOLIDGE OPPOSES
j. S. ROAD PROGRAM

WASHINGTON, Oct. 17.-CR-
Federal expenditures for highway i'm
provementS, in President Coolidge's
opinion, should be kept within rea-
sonable bounds and applied only to
work on main market roads.
The President does not look with
favor on the policy which provides
that the federal government, under
certain conditions, contribute as much
money as states for better roads, but
he recognizes that it is committed &c
such a program and lie is willing to
continue it.
During the past year, however,
S170.000,000 has been expended by the
Washington government on highways,
and the President. thinks that some
of the work thus paid for should have
been done by the states without as
sistance.
While it was not disclosed how
much Mr.. Coolidge believes should be
appropriated annually to share the
road construction burden with the
states, it was plainly indicated he be
lieved as much of a retrenchment as
possible should be effected with ali
the federal funds going for work on
the leading arteries of travel.

TORNADOLEAVES
DEAD IN WAKE
IN KENTUCKY

LOUISVILLE, Oct. 17.-R-
Travelling at so miles an hour, ter
rifle windstorm swept over four coun'
ties in the south central part of Ken
lucky, severely injuring twelve per-
sons, one perhaps fatally, uproOting
trees. demolishing houses and farm
buildings and destroying telephone
communication.
Today, communication with the
stricken area had not been restored,
so no definite estimate Of the extent
of the casualties or the amount of the
property damage could be made. Est
mates, however, placed the toll of in
jured at more than 20 and the prop
erty damage at tens of thousands of
dollars.
DESTROYS DERRICKS.
OF more than twelve town visited
by the tornado, the territory about
Bowling Green, was perhaps the hard
est hit. Starting in Hart county, the
storm jumped over the intervening
counties between Bowling Green AMI
Campcr and dipped again six miles
from Bowling Green, sweeping over
tuC VII llNlh hlolllCl at W al tH NOuh'
ty, where thousands of dollars worth
of property, including oil field equip
mcnt, was destroyed. No one was in
jurcd in the oil field, for oil field At

About six miles from Bowling

uprooted trees and devastated tele-

GARNER FAVORS
INCOME TAX
REDUCTION

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Oct. IL
Op)-A tax revision plan. under
which 100000 persons would be re-
licvcd Of all federal income taxes,
was discussed informally today with
Secretary Mellon by Representative
Garner of Texas, the ranking Demo-
crat on the House committee which
d. ats tax legislation.
After the conference, Representa-
tive Grner said the Treasury's sec
:etary's plan provided only for the
one reduction of surtaxcs and in
hcritance taxes. He made no state
mcnt as to how his counter-proposal
was received Mt the Treasury.
The Garner Plan, which he said
had been drafted without consultation
with his Democratic colleagues, con-
templates a tax reduction Of from
$4J0. 100000 to $J00,000,000, or APP
proximately twice the total which the
Treasury is expected to recommend
Monday when the tax hearings get
under way before the ways and means
committee.
WOULD CUT SURTAX.
The whole Garner program is
prcdicated upon retirement of the
national debt in sixty-two years in
stead Of twenty-five, as proposed by
Secretary Mellon. Mr.. Garner said
he favored the longer period because
debtor nations would be given that
length of time in which to pay off
their obligations p, the United States,
which represent more than half of the
total of this nations Indebtedness.
The relieving of 100000 tax pay
ers from all taxes would be brought
about under the Garner proposal by
increasing the exemption TO $4,000 in
the case of married person and
$4,000 in the case of single persons.
The cut would not stop there, how
ever, Mr.. Garner advocating n reduc-
ton of the maximum surtax to 20
per cent, instead of 20 per cent ar
the Treasury is expected to propose.
OPPOSE SALES TAX.
Repeal of all nuisance taxes is
also favored by Mr.. Garner if this is
possible. These taxes, including those
on sale of automobiles and accessories,
cameras, films and amusements, are
declared by the representative TO be
consumption or sales taxes, to the
principle of which he is unalterably
opposed.
