Douglas daily dispatch., 1927-07-03

Showing that good thing once
started does not stop quickly it was
reported yesterday that additional
sales of stock coming in from per-
sons who had already signed up and
from persons who have been out OF
town and who are wiring their or
GerS are likely to swell the amount
raised by many thousands OF dollars
so that the prospect looms OF hav-
ing only small amount to raise by
pond issue which arrangement, it
is stated, will cut the costs very
considerably.
Announcement is made that the
hotel project will continue toward
building as rapidly as possible. A
meeting OF the board OF directors
with the stockholders is expected at
once for the forming OF permanent
executive board, the working out OF
Incorporation proceedings and the
general solving of every problem
that now stands i'll the way OF break
ing ground for the structure itself
While no one in connection with
the project would state positively
yesterday when the hotel can be
completed and ready for business, it
was generally agreed that every in
dication is that this can be accom-
plished by early autumn so that the
hotel can be in readiness for the
great influx of tourists and winter
visitors this season.
Enthusiasm over the successful
completion OF the stock sales CAM
paign grew greater throughout the
day yesterday as the matter was
talked over and as more and more
people came to realize the full signi-
ficance of what had just beeE done
Prominent men in discussing the
success OF the drive were heard to
remark that the people OF Douglas
have at last found themselves" and
now realize what they are capable
OF and what great enterprises can
be accomplished through co-opera-
ton and hard work 1t is estimated
that the moral effect alone OF the
success of the venture has been one
OF the greatest benefits OF the
achievement.
"A song composed at the banquet
Friday night by Albert Stacy ade-
crately depicts the spirit that has
struck the community 1t is to be
sung to the tune OF "The Wearing

Oh Douglas dear you need not fear
For what the future holds
This new hotel is but a start

SCHOOL BONDS
HELD TAXABLE

Interest on bonds issued by In
diana corporations and authorized
By the State legislature to finance
acuuisition of building sites for
schools is not exempt from Fed.
eraI income tax, the treasury ruled
today.
Bureau OF Internal Revenue ex-
perts held that only interest on
obligations Of States or political
subdivisions exempt and that the
special school bonds are not in
this class.
While the corporations are
formed to further education within
the State Of Indiana, they are
essentially private, = the decision
said. The bonds issued are obliga-
tions OF the corporations which
alone are responsible for payment"
The question was brought to the
Treasury by the Indiana author
titles. They insisted that inasmuch
as the corporations were set up
under authority OF bill passed
by the State legislature last March,
their bonds should be exempt.

TRADE BALANCE
TIGHTENS UP

Curtailed demand abroad for
American grain and the reduced
price OF American cotton this year,
as compared with 1925. is cutting
materially into the money value OF
American export trade.
At the same time, lower prices
for, coffee, tea. raw silk and crude
rubber are cutting down the valua-
ton Of imports to America from
abroad.
The export loss. however, is
greater than the import reduction,
the net result being q tightening
up of the trade balance as between
exports and imports.
These conditions are disclosed in
q compilation just completed by the
Department of Commerce of export
and import statistics for the month
OF July,
The significance of this. as viewed
by experts of the department, is
that Europe is getting back to a
position of agricultural production
enabling her very largely to feed
herself. This is brought about by
greatly increased production OF
wheat in Russia and substantial In
creases in the Central European
grain producing areas.

MEET
ON SLUSH

CHICAGO. Sept. Two Senate
committees met here today to
evolve plan for the seizure of
ballots cast in Pennsylvania 8 turbu-
lent 1925 senatorial election.
Although the Reed SluSh Fund
Committee was halted by Federal
court order months ago in a preVi-
Gus effort to obtain the ballots, the
Senate Privileges and Elections
Committee joined in the conference
because both Senator Elect william
8. Ware (R.) and his Democratic
opponent, William B. Wilson. de.
manded the recount Both commit
tees faced an impasse, however, be.
cause OF q lack of funds and q
question raised over their power to
act during q recess of Congress-.
There was possibility that the
Elections Committee, one of the
Senate's standing committees, would
go so far as to authorize and
guarantee the payment Of any ex-
penSes incurred in seizure of the
ballots. Even this step, it was said,
would not insure collection Of the
ballot because, under Pennsylvania e
law, all ballots remaining from the
last election will be DESTROYED
within the next two weeks to per-
NIT use Of the ballot boxes in the
primary contests in the keystone
State on September 20.
The shortage of time, It was
pointed out, would make it impos.
sible to gather all the ballots nefor,,
September 20. unless Pennsylvania
authorities actively co-operated--an
act which has been lacking in the
past.

Bigger Babies

In letter to the Journal Of the
American Medical Association, a New
York clothing manufacturer asserts
that his company has been forced to
increase the size of the dresses for
one, two and three-year-old children.
Persistent complaints that the necks
of the dresses were too small have
come to him during the past year for
the first time in thirty years expert
ence. Most of the complaints came
from California. This seems to show
that the size of American babies is
increasing. Californians may now
point to another benefit of their glOri-
Gus climate.

A Little Learning

Five hundred farmers will sail in
July for 9,500-mile tour of the Old
world They are going rot to visit
cathedrgls, art galleries, castles, noun
tain resorts and watering places, but
to study the agricultural methods
which have enabled European farm
ers to surpass our own. For instance,
the superior European farmer sticks
close at home patiently applying GER
tain well-known principles taught by
experience and government experts,
and practically never tours America.
He can't afford to tour America. And
us he looks over his visitors he surely
will conclude that American failure is
wonderful thing.

Agricultural Items

More and better maple sap comes
from maple lots that are not grazed.
The waste Is greater than the bene-
fits if cattle are turned on pasture too
early.
Newspapers are devoting twice as
much space to agricultural news as
they did five years ago.
New York ordinarily raises a sur
plus of dairy cattle. but last year TO-
900 more dairy cows were shipped in
to the state than were shipped out.
In buying baby chicks, 1t Is wise to
buy them locally so you may have
chance to visit the farm and see the
parent stock before placing AN order.

Ethics of Fertilizer
Industry Are Improved

The fertilizer industry has become
firmly established among legitimate
business institutions, according to
E. B. Wells, soil specialist of the Kan
sas State Agricultural college. When
commercial fertilizers were first intro
duced into Kansas. he explained, little
attention was paid either to quality or
grade. Flash titles. together with low
price, largely determined the sale Of
the product.
Today manufacturers have found
that if the business is to be legitimate
it must be founded upon scientific rea-
soning and experimental evidence.
The number of brands are being re-
duced and the quality of products are
being improved. Few low grade mix
lures are put upon the market today
by reputable companies.

to see that the mix utensils have

rinsed again just before they are used.

WARDS LEAVING
 BAKING COMBINE
Company'S Representative Quits
 Board ChairlnanShip

New York, March 15.-(P--- Tho sudden resignation o. George S Barber as chairman of the board ol directors of the s10Q,00U.000 Con- tinental Baking company was view cd in financial circles today as the final step in the elimination of the Ward Baking company from the affairs ot the corporation.
 Mr. Barber's resignation was an nounced after meeting Of the board last night at which Elliott C. McDougal, Of Buffalo. new figure in the concerns affairs. was ap- pointed temporary chairman.
 The directors also announced that class \ common stock, which had been on an sS annual dividend basis, had been cut to s4. The regu- lar quarterly dividend of per cent on the preferred stock was not changed.
 Mr. Barber, had been placed at the head Of the Continental com- Dany by the Ward interests, which had aimed at a gigantic baking con- soidation in the United States. says the New York Times.
 This consolidation move subse- quently was blocked by the goveru- ment with issuance Of a consent de cree forbidding the merger of the many companies proposed for in clusion in the combination.
 Following this government de- cree. says the Times, it was under stood that William E. Ward had disposed of his personal holdings in the Continental Baking corporation
 However, says the newspaper, his nominees since that time have dominated the affairs Of the Conti- mental. The corporation recently has been operating entirely inde- pcndently.
 Nlr. Barber will continue 70 re- main a director and d member of the finance committee He had been chairman of the board since forma- ton of the corporation in 1924.
 Mir. McDoucal's interests eener- ally were unknown in financial circles, but it was presumed he represented banking interests in the corporation which have been antag- onistic to Mr. Barber and his man. agement.
