BIG TAN CUT COMING

Senator Curtis, of Kansas, Repub-
lican leader in the Senate believes
that a tax cut of a half billion dol
lars is possible and he is reported
to have informed President Coolidge
to hat effect. The surplus for the
fiscal year is estimated at $25O,0OO,-
600 and Senator Curtis believes that
even more can be saved by the re-
organization of the Federal depart
ments at Washington on an efficient
business basis.
Some attempt for such a reorgan-
ization will be made at the coming
session of Congress and Senator
Curtis believes hat it will take the
form of a bill separate from the tax
bill. The attempted reorganization
will doubtless be fought by persons
liable to be affected by the reorgan-
ization. II. however, as Senator
Curtis believes, a great saving can
be made and the efficiency of the
government increased, the weight
OF public opinion will be on the side
OF reorganization. The people want
further tax reduction and a con-
tinuance of economy and efficiency
in government affairs. They are go
ing to have it, If possible, and they
expect to get 1t under the leadership
of Presidetn Coolidge, with the CO.
operation of Congress-.

UNCLE SAM HAS MUCH
INVESTED IN EUROPE

Total American investments in for
eign countries now total nine and
one-half billion dollars according to
the Finance and Investment Division
of the Department. of Commerce.
This total does o include the twelve
billions which the foreign govern
ments owe the government of the
United States, which would bring
the total to owe twenty billions.
During the first six months of this
year foreign securities in the sum
of 1851, 900 900 were offered to the
people of the United States as an
investment. During the same period
no foreign loans were offered in
Great Britain, which has recently
adopted a restrictive policy in re-
gard to- foreign loans, because of the
British return to the gold standard.
The total American investments
in Europe is now three times as
great as it was before the World
War, it is said, and the total is
steadily increasing.
The American total of foreign in

Wyoming Holds An
Enviable Position
National Affairs
(By Tracy S. McCracken)

In Washington, as in the State
itself, Wyoming has long been
credited with having a Congressional
delegation OF unusual influence a
delegation of the minimum size but
one which many believe has given to
its state Congressional prominence
of which but few can boas..
Had Wyoming's representatives
been less abundantly endowed in the
matter Of genuine legislative ability,
this fortunate record could not have
been made. But to achieve such dis
tinction, the matter Of position has
also played a most important part.
1t is no secret thai a large proportion
of the real battle Of Congress are
fought and decided in committee
rooms rather than on the floors of
the Houses. And in this connection
the fact that Wyoming's represent
atives have succeeded in winning
their way to high committee posts
has placed the state in a strategical
position of f~ar-reaching Importance.
That Wyoming will again fare we'll
in this respect during the coming
Congress, which convenes in Deem
Der, is already assured. Senator F.
L. Warren, dean of the Senate, will
continue as chairman of the Appro-
priations committee; and in addition
will be the ranking member of the
committee on military affairs. He
also keeps his place on the public
buildings and grounds committee.
Senator John B. Kendrick retains
membership on four of the five com
mittees upon which he served last
session; namely, Agriculture and
Forestry, Indian Affairs, irrigation
and reclamation, and public lands,
in each of which he is either second
or third ranking member of his party.
He has given up his place on bank
ing and currency in order to accept
membership on the appropriations
committee. The fact that both of
Wyoming's senators are now ON this
outstanding major committee is a
distinction which no other state can
claim, but which any state would
cherish.
Congressman Winter, now serving
his second term, will again occupy
a place on four committees, an I'M
usually large number for a member
of the House, where one or W com
mittees per member is the rule. Three
of Mr.. Winters committees are of
particular concern to Wyoming, these
being irrigation and reclamation,
mines and mining, and public lands.
His fourth is war claims.

whom o meet-and there's an

During this writer's first few
months in Washington we were con-
stantly annoyed because these fellows
approached us every time we ven
tured outdoors. We did our best to
sur an attitude of ~nonchalance,
appearing quite as indifferent to the
many sights as even the most hard
ened of Washingtonians. Failing
miserably in this, we wondered if our
manner of dress were not quite up to
snuff and if this enabled the guides
to spot us as recent arrivals from
the open spaces. We tried everything
but no relief from the go-gettum
guides and bankers. Our humiliata-
ton was complete. And it continued
SO for six months until we CHANGED
to walk a block or two n day with
q prominent Oulleu oldieS SeHdtOl
whose services at the Nations capital
dates back many years. To our great
establishment those guides even ac-
costed him with n of their alluring
offers to join a sightseeing party
ready to take in the capitol, treasury
and other places of interest. And
to our greater establishment, he mere
said: No, my man, l wouldn't be in

we continued on our way, when that
sort of thing offended me-, but I've
grown used to it. Sometimes they
falter a little before trying to sell
me, as though suspecting I'm no
stranger here, but they take no
chances. They ask everyone"
Since then the pangs of humilia-
ton have left us. True, the guides
are as pestiferous as ever, but be-
tween puffs of our favorite cheroot
we simply tell 'em with the utmost

A complete and correct directory
for the Cities of Rawlins and Parco
is now in the hands of the printer
and in all probability the directories
will be ready for distribution by the
end of this month.
The book has been compiled by
Charles Berger and 1t is being printed
in the Rawlins Republican job de-
partment. Between the covers is list
ed the names of the head of all fam
lilies and in cases where a member
of the family is employed in business
his or her name is also listed with
addresses and phone numbers; local
merchants are represented by adver-
tisements and in the back of the
book a complete classification has
been indeXed and made of the clubs,
societies, churches, hospitals, schools
federal, county. city governments and
all the places of business. Other in

is now being printed will be a credit
and a valuable source of information,
especially to newcomers in the city.
The last directory was printed some
nine or ten years ago and it was in

are IN the city with the same purpose
in view respecting the Casper di-
vision.
Since the affairs Of the road have
been rescued from the clutches of
the Oklahoma political boomers and
false alarms, it is for the first time
in its brief history worthy of the re-
spect and confidence of the Wyoming
public as an institution.
The entanglements of the Haskell
and Middle States Oil interests have
been cleared away through tedious
court proceedings and settlements
with credit contractors and material
supply concerns, and light is show
ing upon the roads affairs that have
enabled financial interests and rail
road builders to take hold and finish
the enterprise.
HI prospects for the long cher
ished hopes of Wyoming people for
a transportation line from north to
south through the richest section of
the state, were never brighter than
they are at present.
The affairs of the company are at
last in the hands of practical men,
with command of ample resources to
move as rapidly as court approval
will permit.

teachers salaries of vocational sub
jects.
Most of the larger schools of the
state availed themselves of this
privilege and provided necessary
buildings and equipment to carry
on the work. AS the local school
district provides all necessary
equipment and supplies in addition
to paying SO per cent of the salary
of the teacher, it is readily seen
that the various school districts
carry the greater part of the bur
den of vocational classes.
In the last analysis, the problem
of conducting vocational classes is
the responsibility of the local COM
munities in school districts. The
state and federal government CO.
operate with them in the type of
vocational education best suited to
the community and help carry the
burden of financing.

Long Lengths of Boards
Cause Drain on Forests

Lumber manufacturers declare
that the forests of the country are
needlessly drained and $140,000,000
worth of wood wasted by insist
ence on long lengths of boards.
This sentiment was expressed at a
conference of the trade extension
committee of the National Lumber
Manufacturers association prelimi-
nary to the opening of the annual
convention of the association in
Chicago this week. The committee
agreed that people must be dissuad-
ed from refusing short, odd lengths
of lumber.

With q reduction in production

this relief will not come soon

1t must be remembered that from
the time rubber is purchased in
