TAX REDUCTION
INSISTED UPON
BY PRESIDENT
Mr.. Coolidge Believes $780,
100000 Cut Suggested
is Excessive.

WASHINGTON, Oct. IL R)-Presi-
dent Coolidge expects tax reduction
to be effected by the next congress but
he believes the 100000 cut sug-
gested by the United States Chamber
of Commerce to be excessive.
He was represented today as feeling
that tax reduction should go hand in
hand with retirement of the public
debt and that the total should be as
large as economical administration of
the governments affairs would permit
A sharp reminder came again from
the White House that any tax reduc-
ton would depend on restriction of
government expenditures, but even
with close curtailment of appropria-
tions the president believes that any
attempt to cut the governments in
come by $40O,000,OOO would result in a
deficit
Evidence that President Coolidge is
giving close study to reduction of both
taxes and the debt was seen in the
fact that three announcements deal
ing with the subject have come from
the White House within a week. Hav-
ing inspected the chamber Of COM
merce proposal for a 100000 re-
duction, the president feels that or
ganizations interested in tax reduc
ton could render better service if they
worked to prevent unnecessary drains
on the treasury.
Some organizations, the president
believes, jeopardize tax reduction by
promoting projects calling for vast
sums of public money, thus off-setting
economy on which all tax cuts must
be predicated
The White House has not ventured
an estimate on how far congress should
go in tax reduction, nor what class OF
taxes should be reduced. 1t was ex-
planned that forecast would be i'm
possible until the estimates of the
treasury and the budget bureau had
been received.
1t is known, however, that the presi-
dent feels that present conditions are
less favorable for tax reductions than
in former years, because of the ex-
haustion of some revenue sources, such
as back tax collections, and the pros
pect of large expenditures for the
military establishments.

STORY OF BATTLE TO
DEATH OF ALFONSO DE LA F1UERTA
RELATED BY AMERICAN WITNESS

TUCSON, Oct. IL QA-Surrounded
and at bay, Alfonso De La Huerta
rebel chieftain, made his last stand in
little canyon 20 miles cast Of I'M
urez and for three hours stood off
band of so federal troops before he
fell, riddled with bullets, according to
the Arizona Daily Star. When all hope
was gone, after three of his little
band of six were killed, De La Huerta
covered the flight of the remaining
two with the fire of his rifle, then
with dubbed weapon, met the rush of
the federal troops, the Star relates
Such is the story of the death of
the rebel leader as told to the Star by
witness of the courageous fight, an
American just returned from Sonora
today.
The American who because of his
affiliations in the southern republic
must remain anonymous, brought the
first authentic news other than the
official report of the Mexican officer
in charge of the detachment which
killed the rebel chief That report
had been doubted along the border
where rUmors flew about, telling that
the rebel general had been executed in
Nogales, Sonora, and did not die in
battle.
The Americans tale of the one
sided battle in the lonely little canyon
at Ojo De Aqua laid at rest the tale
of the execution forever, for De La
Huerta, political insurgent and brother
of the former provisional president of
Mexico, was killed in action, killed
defending the last two of his pitifully
small band of followers.
De La Huerta, with five men, was in
the little village of Ojo De Aqua, 20
miles east of Imusez, Sonora. He
was admittedly waiting for the arrival
of Yaqui reinforcementS, supposedly
from the United States. The party
had been there several days, encamp-
ed in a small canyon near the village.
The federal detachment, seeking the
rebel leader, arrived at the village, SO

told the Mexican officer in charge the

A THIRD PARTY
MOVE IS DENIED
BY 5 SENATORS
BOrah, Nye, Frazier, Brook
hart and Norris Confer
On Politics

WASHINGTON Oct II (P)-While
Senator Norris, of Nebraska, is hesitant
about entering the presidential pref
erential primaries in the western
agricultural states, those participating
in republican conferences here were
unanimous today in a declaration that
they would be glad to support him in
any state in which he will consent to-
have his name used.
The declaration was contained in
an authorized statement issued after
a conference participated in by Sen
ators Borah, of Idaho; Nye and Fraz-
ier,, of North Dakota; Brookhart, of
Iowa, and Norris. However, it was
stated that no action has been taken
and none would be taken until a
larger attendance is had, if at all, as
to candidates for president"
1T was emphatically stated that the
conferences had nothing to do with
third party movement. That those
participating we're proceeding upon the
theory that ''the republican party is
national party and not an eastern
party"
"We proceed upon the theory that
if we make our wishes known in a
proper way and with sufficient force"
the annoupcement said, "they will be
respected and considered by the party.
Ours is a pretty large country and it
now extends from the Mississippi to
the Pacific.
when eastern senators and repre-
sentatives confer upon matters of
peculiar interest to their portion of
the country, such as protection to their
manufacturing interests and naval
stations, they are still regarded as
regular and sometimes referred to as
active and patriotic. When western
senators and representatives confer
with reference to matters which par
ticularly concern their portion of the
country, they seem to be regarded as
irregular, insurgent and radical.
