TAX INCREASE
Is POWDERED
BY OFFICIALS

WASHINGTON, Oct. s.-tR-
With convocation Of congress less
than two months away, legislation
that may be necessary TO make
operative the administrations pro-
gram for business ~rejuvenation has
the almost Undivided attention OF
officials.
Cor~currently, in its survey Of the
business situation, the adminiStra-
ton Is reaching toward its decision
whether a tax increase will be ask
ed Of congress TO meet the mount
ing treasury deficit.
Confidence Prevails
Confidence prevails that private
financial interests viii carry
through their part OF the wide
armed program provided Tuesday
night at a bipartisan conference.
at the White House OF political
leaders IN congress. This Includes
creation Of the $500, 000, 900 agency
to help dissolve frozen banking as
sets into trade channels.
The governments part, however.
must largely 90 before congress for
formal approval. In the chambers
Of the senate and house office
buildings cautious consideration Is
being given already Of legislative
plans for carrying 1t into effect.
While democratic and republican
members who attended the confer
ence publicly spoke the indorsc-
ment they had given the presidents
plan, scattered demands that con-
gress be called into special session
70 cope with the situation were
heard. Indications were. however.
that President Hoover would await
the regular session to present his
program.
Meanwhile, he turned 70 real
estate men, builders and bankers
TO make possible a speeding up Of
home construction and consequent
employment in the building trades.
At a conference yesterday which
he did not consider related to cur
rent emergency problems, the chief
executive discussed with ten rep
resentatives of these groups plans
to make II easier and less expensive
for the future home builders 70
obtain credit. They we're members
OF the finance committee Of the
coming White House conference on
home building and home ownership
which meets here December 2-5.
Central Bank Planned
Opposed by representatives OF the
building and loan associations,
Harry s. KiSsell, of Springfield.
Ohio, president Of the National
Association OF Real Estate Boards,
presented a proposal for a central
mortgage rediscount bank. The as
sociations, however, were said 70
have plans for some form OF central
bank designed to expand credit.
Foremost under the adminiStra-
tion's proposals receiving legis-
iative consideration is that to
broaden the base Of securities
which the federal reserve system
may accept for rediscounting.
A further plan TO release banking
bunds will be presented to congress
by John w. Pole, comptroller OF
the currency. in his annual report.
He contemplates amending the
national banking laws so banks IN
any community, through coopera-
ton with the receiver OF a suspend
ed bank, could make money avail
able for the depositors.

SNAKE BITES AND WHISKY

Experts assigned to the subject by the American Association for the Advancement of Science have reported, after due study, that whisky is not, after all, a cure for snake bite.
 "The use of alcohol" they re- gently asserted, lis generally con- ceded to be useless if not actually harmful in cases of snake bite, especially if given in excessive quantities.
 Thus another hoary tradition bites the dust. It is a question, bow ever, just how much effect the pro nouncement will have. The number of snake bites in America each year is extremely small; but the number of campers who insist on taking plenty of remedy" along with them is large, and probably will remain so, no matter what science has to say about it.-San Angelo, Texas, Times.

GERMAN RETALIATION"

In his interesting letters from Berlin describing conditions in Ger many, Frederick Kuh punctures the theory that American foreign sales have fallen because of the American protective tariff. The decline in American exports, it may be said, has not been greater in proportion than the decline in exports of all other nations, this being partly due to a decreased consuming capacity throughout the world, and partly to a heavy decline in commodity prices.
 MT. Kuh says that Germany is actively engaged in building up her trade, in her effort to pay repara- tions and maintain employment for her own people. Whereas two years ago Germany was exporting fifteen million dollars worth of goods to America, and importing from 30 to 35 million dollars worth of American goods, she is now ex- porting eleven and a half million dollars worth of goods to America, and importing about the same amount from this country.
 In other words Germany, like every other country in a period of unemployment, is trying to buy less and sell more. This is a situ- ation that has not been created nor greatly affected by our tariff. The drop in our exports would clearly have occurred regardless of whether we raised or lowered our tariff. By increasing our tariff we have, however, been able to keep more workers busy in the United States then would otherwise be possible. We are still buying abroad hun dreds of millions of dollars worth of commodities we could produce at home, at a time when we have idle men and materials capable of pro- ducing them.

WAR DEBTS EXPLAINED

Here is the ABC of the World War debts, from an analysis by William P. Sims, foreign editor, in the New York World-Telegram:
 The Allied Powers at the end of 1922 owed the United States $11,- 656, Of this, $10,1O2- ,140,S29.09 represented principal and $1,554,791,90S.3 interest. These debts by nations were: Brit ain, $4.747.000,00O; France. $4,- O,00O,0oO; Italy, $2.000, 1000; Belgium, $437,00O,00O; R Il a, $232,OO0,000; Poland, $153, ,000,- COG; Czechoslovakia, $1O6,OO0, ,00O; Serbia, S60,000,000; Roumania, $42,000, 0,000, and half dozen others amounts from $S0,O00,000 down.
 It was found that some. of these countries never would be able to pay in full, so the Debt Commission, created in 1922 by Congress, pro- ceeded to negotiate settlements on a basis of capacity to pay"
 The British debt was the first set tied. After certain cash payments, she owed, in February, 1923, $4,- eco, 100000. Instead of the original AZ % interest, it was agreed to let Britain off with 38o for the first 10 years, then 315 % therafter until 1884, by which time the entire debt was to be paid. This repre- sented a 25% reduction, or the equivalent of $1,150, 100000.
 Italy's settlement, made in 1925, provided no interest payments for the first five years, then one-eighth of 190 for the next 10; one-fourth of 1% for the next ten; and so on until the last seven years of a 62- year period, when she will pay 2%. Contracted at Az percent this revision meant Italy was let off with 26 cents on the dollar, equiva- lent to cash payment of $500,0OO,- 900.
 In 1926 the new French settle ment was made, providing that she pay no interest until 1880; 1 per cent until 1940; percent until 1850; then by fractions until just before 1987-at which time she is to be paid up-when she will pay BE percent. This let France off with 50 cents on the dollar, a re- duction of $2,000,000,000.
 Belgium is charged no interest Only the principal is asked and payments of that are stretched over almost 50 years. This let her off with 20 cents on the dollar, or less than $100.000,0
 In none of these cases has the principal of the debt been reduced.
 Except for Russia, which went Bolshevik, the other countries set tied on the British basis, that is, 3 percent per annum for the first 10 years of a 55 or 60-year period and 31s percent thereafter. Which means they are paying only about 75 cents on the dollar.

FLAVOR OF UNUSUAL
 COFFEE DELIGHTS THE MOST CRITICAL
Rare Goodness Results from Hills Bros.' Patented Con-
 trolled Roasting Process

Some of the worlds most critical people have tasted Hills Bros. Cof- fee, and declared it the finest. Not only that-they continue to drink Hills Bros. Coffee. For it's flavor never changes!
 A remarkable roasting process is responsible for this. It is called Controlled Roasting-invented and patented by Hills Bros. As the ac- curacy of the hour-glass depends upon an even, continuous flow (. little at time .. so the wonder ful, uniform flavor of Hills Bros. Coffee is produced by this patented process that roasts evenly, continu- ously .. c little at O time.
 The advantage is simply this: Every berry is roasted to perfec- tion-something bulk-roasting can't guarantee. Furthermore, the flavor never varies-something else bulk roasting can't guarantee. But Con- trolled Roasting canl And Hills Bros. Coffee proves it. Every sip has the same satisfying flavor.
 In order to preserve this deli ciousness, Hills Bros. pack their coffee in vacuum cans. Air, which destroys the flavor of coffee, is re- moved and kept out of these cans. Ordinary, "air-tight" cans won't keep coffee fresh. But Hills Bros. Coffee can't go stale. Order some today. Ask for it by name, and look for the Arab trademark on the can.

GLOOM PROMOTERS

Every business depression natur- ally brings goose flesh and pro- notes gloom. Here is something that got into print a few days ago.:
 Last week I was in the city of Cincinnati. Upon inquiry found shops were only running about 40 percent Of their capacity. am ad- Vised that in the iron and steel centers of Ohio mills are running only about 50 percent capacity. There is not an industrial center in the state of Ohio or in western Pennsylvania or in New York or Illinois that is not affected very seriously by unemployment.
 'I found in the city of Toledo al- ready there had been bread lines of 2,000 a day; later found authori- ties had to feed 1,200 men for breakfast and give them baskets of food to take home. I sent out a questionnaire-:nd word came back from nearly every one of these in- dustrial centers that 40 percent of the working men of the country are out of employment"
 Tremendously gloomy? Yes in deed. An indictment of Hoover prosperity" Not exactly. Those words were written in January 1921 by Senator Altee Pomerene, Demo- crat leader and bosom friend of President Woodrow Wilson and covered conditions in final days of the Wilson administration.
 Present conditions are not pleas ant to contemplate, but at the same time we should not lose sight of the fact that our nation has passed

WORTH REPEATING

Mining in early stages is risk and that is why people should not put all their money into one mine. To our way of thinking mining is not as risky as banking. or Wall Street. The latter took a loss of 35 millions of dollars in 1929 while the banking business went to the mat in the same year with $40 failed banks and a loss to depositors of $234, 4,000.000 besides the loss to the shareholders of these banks. Put your money in popular mining issues and reap the rewards of our natural resources. It is your heritage.- Kellogg, Idaho Evening News
