SLIDING SCALE FOR
 SUGAR DUTY PLAN
Hoover Makes Statement on
 Propdsal-Fi6ht Looms

Washington, June 2S (AP)-The proposal that sugar imports duties be put on sliding scale basis, in- creasing as the price of the domestic product declines and vice versa, is likely to become one of the major subjects of debate during the sen- ate's consideration next fall of the highly controversial sugar schedule in the tariff revision bill.
 Revived in the hearing being con- ducted by the senate finance sub committee assigned to consider that schedule, after arousing considerable discussion on the house side of the capitol, while the tariff bill was un- der consideration there, the proposal has brought from President Hoover the. first formal statement he has made on any specific part of the re- vision legislation.
 "The president has had sliding scales of sugar duties submitted to him by members of the committees" the statement said. "The object of these was to protect the consumer as we'll as the producers. He has not expressed himself on them, but of course would be glad to see any ar- rangement which would effect the dual purpose"

Alligator Drags Two
 Boys In Golf Hazard

Clearwater, Fla, June 2S R- Wounds on the bodies of John Freely and Norman Gold. s and 9 years old, respectively, bore mute evidence today of their death struggle with an alligator in a golf course water hazard near here. Indications were that the boys ware playing with their toy boats when the alligator put in an appearance.
 Golfers responding to the screams of year old brother of the boys, retrieved the bodies of the two, and found the gator in the hazard.
 The four year old, told an in- coherent story to his father, Jeff Gold, St. Petersburg visitor.
 Apparently, the big reptile had pulled John Freely into the water, and Norman had gone to his rescue. and the three fought it out for several minutes before the boys succumbed. The younger brother had watched spelbound until the fight was over, his story indicated. and then had run for help.

 Easy to Damn Mayor
 T was mayor of this city for six years and l know how easy it is to damn the mayor; but don't do that. Take an interest in government and don't be selfish. There was a tax payers association here several days ago. It was directed by demagogues who went up and down the streets through the length and breadth of the city and they criticized from a do any good. I would be pleased to join your organization. But be care full of politics. It is very easy for politics to creep Into your discus sions and just as soon as they do, I will quit the taxpayers league. Some people accuse me of being a politi- elan, but I'm not. I'm just a citizen interested in politics" the speaker said in conclusion.
 Former Representative Frederick o. Racllliffe also spoke briefly. He 1 complicated the gathering on the work it is undertaking, but warned i that the success Of the association 1 will be measured by its willingness to carry on its work unselfishly and with the idea of benefiting the en- tire city. Mr. Racklffe also warned against criticism that is not con- structivc. reminding how easy it is l to condemn.
 History of Tax Rate l Tracing the increase in taxes. the | former mayor said the taxrate 10 years ago was el mills and today it is es mills. while the grand list has | increased in that period from $54,- ! 900, 900 10 s114,000, ,0O0.
 "I have told MT. Linder over in city hall that the grand list must be reduced by several millions. because the value is not there" he said.

 Vincent Dobrowalski, president of the association, named John Smolak chairman of the meeting. Fifty new members were admitted.
 Association to Expand
 Julian Twarowski stated that the aim of the association was to in- crease interest in and an under standing of the city government. About 10 years ago society called the Taxpayers League was started with the same purpose, but it did not srryive because of the seltishness and lack of unity among the mem- bers." he said.

Former Mayor George A. ouiglt

Former Mayor George A. Quigley dashed out in sweeping criticism
 against three major sources of city -.expenditures-schools, sewers and ,awater extensions-in the course of '"~a talk to the Citizens Property
 Owners association last night, and j urged about 75 listeners to quiz .dhCom mon council members and kick out" those found to be uninformed.
 'There has been tremendou,
 waste in the construction of schools. and you are paying for it today"
 the ex-mayor asserted as he launch
 cd into his favorite subject reforms - in the school committee. Had the
 city standardized on school buildings years ago, the burden would not be } nearly as hard to bear as it IS to- day, he insisted. He urged close . watch on school projects and re- , minded that no one who fails to } take an active part in reducing costs can criticize.
 Recalls Sewerage History } Going into the subject of sewer age. MT. Quigley made the claim < that his drive against a proposed } $2,00o,000 bond issue for recon- struction of the sewer beds was one . of the principal weapons to prevent , issuance of the bonds. He related ! the story of his attempts to be heard { before the common council and of . that body's refusal to listen to his , arguments, and of how two civic clubs gave him the privilege of the floor to state his case.
 ! Until system is devised for the , separation of trade wastes from < domestic sewage, no sewer beds . will be successful. he warned. An ; ordinary septic tank will dispose Of domestic sewage, as residents of small farming communities have . found, but when the acids from factories, the oils from garages and the soaps and lye from laundries are thrown into the same system, ! they destroy the bacteria and effec- tive disposal is impossible, according to the ex-mayor.
 But, of course. if you are not go- sAA6 to pC pal tlSdldl "HoHl you SGH'l , stnto the common council or if you let elections go by without voting, it's your own fault. Go to your , councilman. find out what he knows : about sewerage and this bond issue, . and If you find that he doesn't know s about it, kick him out!" the speaker \ urged.
 Criticiaes Water Board Plan
 The plan of the water board to ; develop a filtration plant on the a Schultz farm near Shuttle Meadow lake, was also criticized. The place . for such a systems is up in the hills rear the source of the water, where increased pressure can be developed, Quigley insisted using the Israel Putnam school fire with the weak : pressure found at that time as an
 argument te.ssPportshie claim. If the water board Is permitted ] to proceed, water VIII be taken ] from the hills. dumped into Shuttle . Meadow reservoir and then pumped

who understand the city government and work for the people. Only in this way, with the cooperation of all the people, the Citizens Property Own CTS association will be a recognized and influential body. he added.
 Chairman Smolak was the con- cluding speaker of the evening. He stated that cut in the tax rate was inevitable. At least 5000 people must become members of the Citizens Property Owners association, he said.
 The association will sponsor a pie nic July 4 at the amusement grounds on Pennington avenue. Proceeds will go 10 cover the expense of the asso- citation.

 Mueller Writes Article
 Chancellor Mueller. however, contributed an article to today's Vossiche Zeitung relating his ex- periences as one of Germanys sig natories to the treaty. He said the moments of signing were the most terrible of his life.
 A great outdoor demonstration was planned for the Berlin stadium at 7:30 p. m., when the Reichstag will open it's doors to a joint mani- festation of German patriotic so- cieties. One of these, the kyffheuser Bund, containing 3.000.000 mem- bers and claiming to be the great est association of ex-service men in the world. called on the govern ment to have the confession of war guilt in article 231 of the treaty eliminated, thereby paving the way for real reconciliation of the peo- ples.
 Church Bells Tolled
 Church bells tolling at 3 p. In. were the churches reminders of the day of mourning. Even this demon- stration, however, was eliminated in the Rhineland. where the con- sistory decided to abandon the church program also after hearing of the Rhineland commissions prohibition. Afterward the Co., blenz authorities consented to She church celebrations but it was too late for reinstatement of the pro- gram.

Jeremiah'S ministry before the de-
struction Of Jerusalem and the
captivity Of Judah in $50 3. G. gave
to the nation some Of the brightest
and most glorious visions of hcpe
OF a new era, the visions OF which
fill SO large a place in the prophe-
sizes of both jeremiah and Ezekiel.
The nation was tottering on its
foundations: many Of the PEOPLE
had already been carried away into
captivity; the temple was about TO
crumble into dust and ashes; the
immediate prospect was dark and
hopeless. but the far visioned pro-
phets Of Jehovah looked hopefully
70 a new and better day.
