MIR. Gamers Foes Active

The opposition to John N. Garner having failed 10
GUST this veteran from congress in past campaigns
has started work early this year, and in a subtle man
ner.
Austin Callan, publicity representative for John
III Kirby. breaks loose with an effusion which pur-
ports to be an interview with his eminent boss on the
wonderful industrial expansion of Texas.
While reading through the first two ard a half
pages Of typewriter matter the question as to the
purpose OF the story Is unanswered.
But 1t all comes out in the very last paragraph.
III developing this promising region there should
De developed with 1t a sentiment favorable to a tariff
tax that will sustain it," Mr.. Callan quotes Mr.. Kirby
The remainder OF the paragraph says: without that
sentiment there can be no assurance Of the tax. and
without the tax profitable production is impossible"
or course there is no word In the article about MI.
Garner, the most powerful democrat In the national
congress today. but that win come later.
The interests represented by these men have
fought John Garner for many years and always their
fight has been a losing game. If friends of the VAL
ley stay on guard it always will be a losing game.
until the time comes when Congressman Garner no
longer wishes to serve the Fifteenth district.
The plan OF these interests Is to build up sentiment
for the tariff on vegetables, which already exists in
the mind Of every citizen Of this section. and then to
point to Mr.. Garner as the man who sought to pre-
vent the tariff being assessed on products grown in
the Valley.
But their plan will fail for citizens of this section
admire the fearless stand Of Garner who has fought
the republican machine al the way. seeking to pre-
vent increases In industrial tariffs which would more
than offset any benefit to the farmers.
John Garner has always been favorable TO any
tariff or anything else that would help the Valley or
any OF the citizens Of his district. He has been
against a tariff bill which sought to rob the farmer.
knowing all the time that any bill passed would carry
the agricultural schedules.
When the next election f. held John Garner win
be returned 70 congress With his usual two or three 10
one majority Of votes.

SPANISH FLAG, SAYS HE HAS RIGHT
H. s. Instructor Explains He Is Spanish Vice
 Consul

That Andrew Guilliano, vice con- sul of the Spanish government and teacher of Spanish at the senior high school, has the right as rep resentative of Spain to fly the nag of Spain without the American flag at his home on Whiting street was explained to a policeman when he called at the school this morning to inform Mir. Guilliano that he was breaking the law.
 Principal Louis P. Slade. who met the policeman. explained that If MT Guilliano were a private citizen without the authority or power Of the foreign government he would not have this privilege but he is vested with. the authority of vice consul and in that way he is the representative of the Spaniards in this city
 MT. Guilliano has a letter from government officials in this coun- try which. gives him the power to do this because his office is located at his home. He explained, however. that it was not his object to ignore the American flag but accommoda- tions for two flags were not avail able.
 He is working on the details of a Spanish club party at the school and when he has time he intends to call upon Mayor A. M. Paonessa and ~ A 1~1. L. position and to ask their coopera- ton in his work among the Spanish people of New Britain.

INCREASED TAX RATE OF AT LEAST ONE MILL
Huge Cuts Must Be Made in Budgets by N-
 nance Board

4 taxrate of at least 27 mills, probably reaching 2s mills. and . budget providing scarcely any of the numerous new projects recommend ed, are in prospect tonight when tho pruning" committee of the board of finance and taxation meets to prepare it's report for action by tho full board, Wednesday night.
 The committee Is faced with the requirement of eliminating between $Soo,0o0 and $s0O,Oo0 from the re- quested appropriations if the rate is to be kept at it's present figure, z6 mills. An extra tax of one-nfth of one mill has already been levied for the school department and this must be added to the rate for next year. It is agreed by the heads of the financing departments that an increase cannot be avoided. Not only must nearly every special item be rejected. but also there must be re- auctions in amounts set forth in the regular budgets and some of the contemplated improvement and re- pairs must also feel the pruning shears.
 Cuts in the department of public works alone will amount to several hundred thousand dollars it Is be- lieved certain. Members of the com mittee will concentrate their atten- tions on the special items in the fire and police boards. probably elimi- mating the new fire house, new lad der truck, automobiles for the po- lice. and giving few new men for each department.
