HOOVER FEARS
FARM PARADE
Concern Develops Over
Slated Demonstration.
By United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.-Some
concern has developed in admin
istration circles over reports from
Des Moines that midwest farm lead
ers are organizing a demonstration
to impress their grievances on
President Herbert Hoover when he
arrives there to speak Oct. 4.
Arrangements for the trip were to
be discussed today with the Iowa
Republican national committeeman
H. E. Spangler.
Originally, it was planned that
President Hoover would arrive in
DeS Moines in the early afternoon
and speak at night.
Meantime, hostile farm leaders
have announced they intended tC
stage a demonstration and parade
to make known to President Hoover
their dissatisfaction with condi-
tons.
Mr.. Hoover probably will not re-
view the parade. He may delay his
arrival at Des Moines until dinner
time.
Friends of President Hoover say
any demonstration which trans
crosses upon the dignity of the
presidential office or which falls
short of traditional Iowa hospital
ity will arouse sympathy for Presi-
dent Hoover.
Leaders of the Farmers Holiday
Association answered this today by
saying they do not care to confer
with President Hoover when he is in
Des MoineS.

Lowest Tax Levy in County
Probable for Town of
Williams Creek.

An example in economy in govern
ment was proposed today by officials
of William Greek, the county's
newest corporation, and only town
in the nation entirely controlled by
women.
Smallest tax levy of any corpora
ton in the county will be the result
of budget meeting to be held by
trustees Thursday.
They will lay aside household
duties to fix tax levy for the towns
140 citizens. An estimated budget of
$1,133 is proposed.
Salaries of the towns officials
have been cut to the minimum. For
serving as town marshal, street COM
missioner and fire chief, Mrs. Eliza
beth Arensman will receive salary
of 81 in 1888.
Likewise, the towns trustees, Mrs.
Helen c. Spreading, Mrs. Carolyn
Payne and Mrs. Eleanor Mcmillan,
will serve for 81 each In 1888.
Most generous item in the payroll
is $50 for the town clerk. A similar
amount will be paid the towns at
torney. Largest item in the budget
is $3.50 for contractual services-for
repair of streets, cutting weeds and
similar expenditures.
AS yet, the town is not worried
with heavy bond charges, as only
$40 will be necessary for bond pre-
miums the coming year. A temper
airy loan may add another $500 to
the budget.
If the men object to the new
tax rate, they will have remedy at
law. They can appeal to the state
tax board.
