COLUMBUS, Ohio, Jan. 80 P-Op-
position to any feature of the Boulder
canyon dam proposal which would put
the government in the electric power
business was expressed in a. statement
issued today by the Ohio Chamber of
Commerce. The chamber, hoy lever,
said it favored flood control
The proposal, the statement declared
would open a wide crack in the door
for entry of state socialism"
Ohio was interested, the statement
said, because the state pays six times
the taxes of the region to be directly
benefited by the dam. The statement
was accompanied by report on the
dam proposal by Samuel S. Wyer, Col
umbus, consulting engineer for the
Ohio Chamber of Commerce.
Seven reasons were set forth by the
chamber for it's stand on the proposal,
as follows:
"one: The territory directly bene-
fitted involves the lower counties of
California and parts of adjoining
states. The territory pays about per
OOeSV~O
government. Ohio alone pays six times
the taxes of the directly interested
region. Seven on-benefited states,
Ohio, Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan,
Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New
York, pay 50 per cent of the United
States government taxes, or SO times
those of the benefited region.

interior, at his own discretion, to en-
gage the government in the manu-
facture and sale of electric power. This

FALLING in TWICE
GETS ONE TWICE AS
! WET, SAYS VICKERS

. What, under the stars, could be
worse than to fall into the creek
when the temperature is such that
it would freeze ones clothing before
they would dry? E.. Francis 'VickerS,
of Douglas, speaks right up when that
query is put and replies: 'Ill tell
you what. Fall in the same creek
again." And here is how Vickers
is so well informed on the subject.
Vickers, w. Nolan Wear, c. Spotts-
wood Neece and H. Lacey Reeves
went to Seneca creek, in New Mexico
Sunday morning to hunt ducks. They
got to the hunting grounds before
daylight and established general
headquarters, threw out their skirmish
lines and were all set for the appear
ance of ducks except that Vickers
wanted to get little farther up
the creek. He had his wading boots
on and started across the creek
Feeling his way along, all went well
until he was about the center of
the stream when he was suddenly
reminded of that tuneful old ballad
which ran
''Down went McGinty, to the bottom
of the deep,
He must have c2t wet for they
! haven't found hinl yet"
But VickerS didn't have time tc sing
because all his vocabulary was oc-
cupied with discussion of why creek
beds should be constructed on a
common level.
Scrambling to the bank, as wei
as fisherman after an all days
seige on the bank of stream, Wick
ers scanned the landscape and dis,
covered smoke curling from a nearby
shack. He hurried to it and fcunc
most kindly disposed people who
took him and helped him get his
clothing dry. Then he hurried back
tc the stream and inside of two hours
so far as mis- friends know, for purely
experimental purposes, he did the
same thing over again.

to what is believed authentic source.

ARMY PAY DAY
ONCE A MON TIL
CHEERS TROOPS

This is the pay day cut at the
camp. The great eagle will flap his
wings over the army today and the
feathers will fall out To the average
soldier pay day is a gala occasion.
The common "buck" private does not
receive very much real money and the
eagle only flaps his wings once a
month.
1t is estimated in army circles that
the common soldier is flat broke the
greater portion of the time. When
he is paid large amount of his
pay is taken out to pay debts assumed
since the last pay day and the rest
goes quickly for things the soldier
has longed for ever since his last
supply of money dwindled. The army
man has all his expenses paid for
him. His food and clothing, his
quarters and his every necessity is
furnished by Uncle Sam so that the
pay is so much spending money and
accordingly it is spent.

necessary to remove the said article

the house and located the machine,
they started to remove 1t. At this
iuncture, Mrs. Young interpoSed obJec-
