WANTS PUBLIC DEBT
REDUCED A BILLION

Washington - (FP) - Chester H.
Crav. Washington representative Of
the conservative American Farm Bu-
reau Federation, presented the fiscal
program Of his organization to the
House ways and means committee on
Nov. /. He asked that a reduction of
ST 100000 900 be made in the national
debt before any tax-cutting should be
undertaken.
Interest on the public debt, in 1925,
he reminded the lawmakers, amount
ed to 1882, 100000. Reduction of this
burden on the treasury would in his
view be the best sort Of foundation
for later reduction of direct taxes.
On the other hand, the proposed tax
reduction amounting to 1925, 100000
or S250,000,0 900 would be of little con-
sequence, since it would be only about
I 81 per capita. Anyhow, Gray argued
American business is not being over
/ burdened by taxes.
I He reported that the Farm Bureau
4 Federation favOrs collection of al
4 least 1870 Of federal income from
sources having ability to pay, as
measured by net income made" Only
4 258e he said, should be taken in taxes
''from those who are under necessity
to consume" He did not explain why
this 259o should be so taken, farther
than that all taxes should be collecte,
from those having net income avail
able.
Gray testified that the farmers ar
strongly opposed to any repeal o
further weakening of the federal es
tates taxes. Secretary Mellon ha,
urged the repal of death duties. bu
the committee had not shown anv as
pecial interest in his statement D.
that point. 1t was not considers

Lawyers Argue Right Of City
To Pass Ordinance on Liquor

Helena, Nov. Attention of the
state supreme court was occupied this
morning by extended argument of the
case OF the city of Bozeman versus
Oscar Merrell, appellant, in discussion
of the right Of a city to pass ordin-
ances covering liYuor nuiSances. The
point stressed by the attorneys is:
"Has the city of Bozeman the power
to declare by ordinance the posses
sion of intoxicating liquors to be
nuisance except as authorized by the
laws OF the United States and to pro-
vide for the punishment Of persons
maintaining such a nuisance?"
The appellant, Oscar Merrell, and
his wife went to Bozeman from Liv-
ingston and purchased home which,
according to testimony, has in former
years been of I'll repute About six
montas after they reached Bozeman
the premises were raided for liquor
! by the sheriff's force of Gallatin
county. Again in January 1925 the
federal officers searched the place.
During this time Mrs Merrell was
working in cafe and they took in
roomers. Neighbors complained of
J AiO1oC anu NAob III DctilCCs IllG DOL6IIldil
city manager and police force, armed
with warrant, entered the house in
February 1927. Testimony was to the
effect that Mrs MerreH attempted to
conceal a bottle of liquor in her dress
and that bottle of wine and a stack
of empty bottles "at high as the
judges desk" were found. Three
young men had entered the house be
fore the officers. The defendants
were convicted in police court and the
case was appealed to the district
court Conviction resulted again anC
punishment was fixed by a jury.
Fourteen assignments of error are
set forth by attorneys for Merrel. The
state has repealed, its liquor laws, ye
attorneys for the city Of BozemaI
contend that it is within the power
of the state to prohibit by law th'
possession of intoxicants and, if th'
state has that power and fails to ex
ercise it, then the city Of Bozeman
under express and implied power de
rived from the constitution, genera
laws ands its charter may do so.
