GREECE ADOPTS MEASURE
TO INCREASE REVENUE
Will Be Able to Balance Budget
If Plans Are Sue
cesSful

Greece will be enabled to balance
her budget in the immediate future
following inauguration of new meas
ures decided upon by the minister of
finance, G. Cofnas, according TO
cable advices received here by the
Greek legation today.
The finance minister has submitted
to the President of the republic for
approval new fiscal measures, which,
1t is stated, will assure additional rev
ennes of $500 drachmae a year.
The new financial program includes
a ruling that all import duties shall
be, paid in gold, converted into paper
drachmae at the rate of II to l, and
only few items of prime necessity
are exempted from this provision.
Taxes on the consumption of tobacco.
and the price of salt, which is a state
monopoly in Greece, will be increased
and all of the measures recommended
by. the commission of economics will
be.iput into effect. The increased rev
epues and decreased expenditures will
enable Greece to balance her budget
and leave a small surplus. it is said.
The present minister of finance held
the same post from the Winter of
1892 until March, 1924. He is we'll
known by the Greek people for his
ability to discover new methods of
taxation.

iNARSHAL FIGHTS
INJUNCTION ORDER
Snyder Appeals Decision For
bidding Sale to Satisfy For
feited ReCognizanCe.

United States Marshal Edgar c..
Snyder today noted an appeal to the
Court of Appeals from a decision of
Justice Jennings Bailey of the Dis
erict Supreme Court granting an in
junction asked by Charles D. Hood,
professional bondsman, preventing
the sale of premises 1910 Fifteenth
street northwest to satisfy a forfeited
cecognizance of $4,000. The injunc-
ton of Justice Bailey is to remain
in force until Marshal Snyder insti-
tutes proceedings in equity to enforce
the bond forfeitures as required by
section 1914 of the District code. The
court assessed the costs in the case
against the marshal.
Exceptions Noted.
Assistant United States Attorney
Burnett took exception TO the putting
of the costs on Marshal Snyder, con-
tending that he was acting in his
official duty and should not be re-.
quired to bear the costs of the pro-
ceeding.
Through Attorneys James B.
Archer, Eta L. Taggart and E. T.
Sanford, the bondsman complained to
the court that the marshal was about
to sell his property, valued at $50, 900,
to satisfy the forfeiture in front of
the courthouse for cash and asserted
that the terms of sale We're disad-
vantageous to him. He also attacked
the procedure, claiming that the
method set forth in section 1914 of
the code had not been followed. The
bond in question had been given by
HOOD, the court was told, at the re-
quest of Narcotic Inspector Rakusin
for Edward Hooks, charged with
NVraf ~ i
Hooks could be used as a "decoy' to
catch other violators. Hood was
told that the indictment would be de-
ferred, he says, and was not aware
that one had been returned and was
not ordered to have Hooks in court.

REFUSES ROSS VOUCHER.
q. S. Will Not Give Opinion on
Character of Slavery Reporter.

Inquiries by the League of Nations
temporary commission on slavery as
to the character of Edward A. Ross
have been answered by the State De-
partment in a communication setting
forth that since he was not an Ameri-
can Government official 1t was not in
a position to express an opinion.
Mr.. Ross was the author of a re-
port submitted to the commission on
the subject of forced employment of
native labor in Portuguese Africa. The
commission has been unofficially rep
resented as taking the position 1t could
not consider the Ross report inasmuch
as the United States had not answered
it's QUESTIONABLE as to his character.
In it's reply, the State Department
pointed out that the inquiry had ar
rived by mail only Monday.
Under rules regulating the commits
sion's inquiry. only reports can be
considered which are filed by persons

to in the matter of advertising.
Every page and column of the home
newspaper is thoroughly scanned. Peo-
pie do not want to miss a single thing
that has happened in their own neigh
bcrhood. Where a big newspaper Is
hastily skinned and only a small
part Of the matter noted because of
the enormous size of the publication,
the home paper is not so big but that
it can be thoroughly studied.
Advertising Is News
AS a consequence, wherever the
merchant puts MS notice it is bOuEd
to be read fer two reasons: First, be-
cause it is next to interesting news;
second, because the people are just as
much interested in things that their
home stores are doing as in the things
that the LEGAL societies or people are
UP TO. When people read the adver-
tisement of a store it went be long
before they will call to see what the
stuff looks like.
Too many of the business men and
merchants of our state are spending
s. here and $40 there for transient
advertising, calendars, blotters, fold
ors, form letters, etc, ETC., and these
miscellaneous items amount to a con,
sidclable sum in the course of a year.
True, these forms of advertising
produce a certain amount of publicity,
hut nine-tenths of the advertising
money spent in this manner means
mere or less of a donation from which
direct results are almost impossible
to trace.
Newspaper Ads. Cheapest
If a merchant will compare the cost
of preparing a letter, the cost of fill
ing in and addressing, the cost OF
postage on a list of say 1900 names
with the cost CT an advertisement in
his local paper with a circulation Ct
approximately 1870 PEOPLE and CHECK
the results, he viii very soon realizC
the decided advantage in newspaper
advertising.
The Montana Development associa
ton believes that the town where thu
merchants show enterprise and pusl
in the matter Of newspaper advertis
ing is apt to be the same town where
the stores have good success in hold
ing the home trade.

O'Connor and D. NJ. Kelly as security
for payment for legal services rem
dered to Ringing.
This return was given to Under
Sheriff Orville Jones.
Before MIR. Jones was able to reach
the sheriff's office with the return,
it is said, Bath and O'ConnOr called
at the sheriff's office and orally de-
manded the return of the safe, which
had not been opened.
Smith Wants Return
Mr.. Smith asked them to wait until
IL o'clock yesterday morning, as he
had not at that time seen the return
which they claimed to have made.
They agreed to do this, according to
the sheriff, but about 10 o'clock they
came back with a written demand for
the safe in which they threatened TO
bring suit if their demand was not
Immediately hOnored.
While they were in the sheriff's
office Mr.. Jones came IN with Baths
return and upon the showing made
therein the safe was returned to Mr..
Baths office.
Sheriff Smith declares that he
knew the papers to be in the safe
and as long as the safe was in his
possession they We're secure, so it was
unnecessary to break into the re-
ceptacle to actually obtain possession
Of them. Had a court order been is
sued to open the safe, it would have
been done, regardless of the com.
bination, he declares.
On the other hand, it was impos,
sible for Mr.. Smith to allow the safe
to go out of his possession with thu
notes in it until a return had beer
filed by Mr.. Bath.
This ends the episode of the safe
until next Monday.
