would like to 60 to the people in the
1880 election with the credit of having
reduced taxes On the other hand. 1t
would not care to take a risk of busi-
ness depression which might possibly
enSue If the tariff law created the dis
turbance that some of its critics predict
for 1t. II, for example, business takes
an unfavorable turn due to tariff, tax
receipts would decrease materially.
The strategy Of the Democrats will
be to take advantage of both situations
namely, with respect to the tariff and
the Treasury surplus, arguing that q
moderate revision of duties will keep
business intact and that the surplus
ought to be divided with the taxpayers.
1t is quite possible that II the Treas
ury Is called upon for specific sugges-
tions as to rates, 1t will prefer to let
the task be handled by Congress, con-
fining its own work in the preparation
Of data showing the effect of possible
rates. There Is reason to believe Con-
gress will try to increase exemption of
taxation, making q larger number of
people than before immune from tax
payments. Some leaders in Congress
have expressed the view that the next
cut in taxes ought to be in the incomes
below 100000 and that special atten-
ton should be given to earned incomes
and the salaried man. The Treasury II
Is thought, however would prefer q cut
in all sur-taxes, on the theory that
every sur-tax reduction has enabled the

is that q surplus of $1s5, ,0OO, 900 can
be washed out quickly by q per cent
diminution in tax receipts or by q few
appropriations by Congress. The trou-
BILE about this plea is that it has been
made again and again. but tax receipts
keep increasing and Congress also hews
pretty strictly to the budget
For several weeks there have been
rumors that the Treasury Department
foresaw the possibility of an agitation
for tax reduction and that the admin
:stration might flnd In october or No
vember that the pressure Of public
opinion to reduce taxes was such that
recommendation would be made by the
President, after all. In his message to
Congress There is no certainty about
the administration position, however
because there Is no way of telling what
effect the new tariff law will have on
customs revenues.

place Of Judge Howard w. Smith, trial
Of the suit instituted by Morris A.

PROPAGANDA" HIT
BY j. EDUCATORS.
Public Schools Must Remain
Open and Unbiased, N. E. A.
Assembly Told.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
ATLANTA, July A warning that
public schools must not be subverted to
propaganda was given today in a COM
mittee's report to the representative as
sembly of the National Education Asso-
citation in convention here
The report was submitted by the
chairman, Edwin C. Broome. superin-
tendent of schools of Philadelphia
THE propagandist is knocking at the
school door," said the report. I'm some
instances he has already been admitted
There is nothing to indicate that he
will overlook the schools in the future
- Teachers Mind Is Open.
"The teachers mind is open on all
subjects The main purpose Of propa-
sanda, therefore, is to teach what to
think, while the guiding purpose OF
education Is to teach how to think.
This is a significant issue for school
authorities because of the imperative
need for an adult citizenry capable Of
protecting itself from the many appeals
OF all forms of propaganda.
The welfare of children is the pri-
mary function Of public school and Is
the only legitimate basis for acceptance
or rejection of material offered for
school use Constant alertneSs is the
price of freedom from one-sided state
mentS
Material on debatable public ques-
tions should give unbiased presentations.
The school should guard against
casting the minds of children in GER
tain infiexible molds modelled along the
lines of current practice.
Value Of Outside Contests Doubted.
Contests originating from outside the
school are ordinarily of doubtful edu-
cation value.
THE privilege of outsiders to address
school assemblies and classes should be
definitely controlled by educational au-
thorities.
THE dificulty of the propaganda
problem will be lessened when all schools
are supplied with adequate funds so
that no school will be compelled to rely
on gifts and donations from the out
side

government to gain more revenue and
has made less and less valuable the
tax-exempt securities.
Inasmuch as tax legislation must
originate in the House, where the ad-
ministration has good control of its
substantial majority, the situation will
depend entirely on the tactics of the
Democrats and the pressure of public
opinion. II $l85, 100000, for example,
were cut off the tax bill OF the Ameri-
can people instead Of being applied to
debt retirement that sum would be used
either for capital purposes to finance
new enterprises or to increase the pur-
chasing power of the American people
Not much will be known until the
Autumn about the trend of popular
thought on this question. but 1t does
look now as If politics would force the
reduction of taxes at the Winter session
of Congress.

 Show Improvement


 The Ketchikan and Prince of Wales Island areas will have at least normal pack of salmon, in the opinion of H. B. Friele, Vice President and General Manager of the Nakat Packing Corporation, who with M. M Houck, Assistant Gen eral Manager of the same firm, visited here yesterday.
 The canneries in the district are, on the whole, slightly behind last year, but the runs reported have been fair, MT. F'riele said.
 Advices received today by the Bureau of Fisheries, however, point cd to improved conditions since Mir Friele's departure from Ketchikan. A telegram from Warden Hynes, Ketchikan, received this morning, said:
 Runs are fairly good throughout this area and beginning to be strong in the vicinity of Cape Cha con, Dall Head and along the Gra- vina Island shore. The southern portion around Cape Fox and Port land Canal below last year. Practi- cally the entire Behm Canal is good A little early to expect the run on the east coast of Prince of Wales Island, Cleveland Peninsula and Ernest Sound, but trap lifts have been fair in these sections. /"
