equivocal opposition to the applica-

surplus in the national Treasury was
voiced by Representative McFadden,
Republican, chairman Of the House

an address here today before Atlanta
bankers and Government officials.
II believe the farmers problems are
not to be settled by further applica-

largely those Of marketing and can be
best met through proper use and CO.

marketing and those established to
handle phases Of agricultural prob
lems," he added.
Mr.. McFadden predicted that "such
tax reductions as are made by Con-
gress will take the form of abatement
of the so-called nuisance taxes ut

SPORTS IN TIE PARKS

Superintendent Wainnght Of tho park department expects 10 ho ablo to provide some winter sport opportunities in inc public parks this week, so he informs the Her. aid, Thls is well and good,
 Tho hiliy portion Of Walnut Hin park is especially adapted 10 win fer sports. Although tho park hoard has been active in this par ticular each year. thero have been few opportunities like that of the present. Tho only difficulty no doubt has been that the snowfall was so heavy that 1t required some preliminary effort 10 clear 1t away from tho sidewalks adjoining the parks. With this done 1t is 10 be hoped and expected that efforts arc taken 10 prepare the snow for to- bogganing and scdding where such opportunities offer.
 The youth of the city arc more dependent upon the parks for such amusement every year. Some of tho best known hills in the QUA lying sections have been all bat ruined for such sport by the en- croachmonts of building operations. Persons who were youngsters in the city when the built-up sections were more compact can remember what great sport was 10 be had in sections now dotted with houses. There are still open spaces within the city, but they are far distant compared with conditions in "the good old days" The parks neces- sarily must provide more oppor- tunitios for hcalthful winter sports than formerly,
