KETTLES INCOME
 FALLS BEHIND
Only Fifteen More Days in Which to Raise Sum
 Needed
FOR CHRISTMAS CHEER

While the kettle income for the three days that the kettles have been out is somewhat below that of last year, there are still 15 days more kettle days remaining in which to make up an amount com mensurate with the great demand that will be made this year on the Salvation army.
 In appealing for the success of the effort, Captain William c. Oli- yer said: "The storms of adver- sity, illness and other like causes, very often unavoidable, are the cause of much despair, tears, hun ger and heartache. It is in just such cases that the Salvation army is endeavoring to alleviate these reactions over the Christmas sea- son as far as you, the. more for tunate citizens, will |. enable us through a generous response to the kettle appeal. There are cases to- day in Waterbury that are path etic in their appeal and with the universal depression in business the task will be Q heavy one this year. Primarily, the effort will be to supply an abundance of. Chrust- mas cheer and to make 1t bright CT for a smany as possible.

 Chicago, Dec 7-(UP)-Chicago is winning It's battle with tax strik- CTS after fight that finally reached the United States supreme court.
 For more than two years, the Financial predicament of the na- Hons second largest city has been acute. In that time school teach- CTS, policemen, firemen and other employees of county and city have gone unpaid for months at Q time, or have been paid in scrip which they could cash only at heavy dis count, when at all.
 The story about Chicago is broke" went over the world. It was easy to believe because every one believed anything can and does happen in Chicago" Because no taxes were being collected, municipal funds dwindled away and finally the banks refused to lend the city any more money un- til the tax muddle was straight ened out.
 Now the pendulum begins to swing back. Long lines of prop Aerty owners stand in the county treasurer's office paying their 1890 taxes. Eventually those for 1881 and 1882 will be paid and the county and city governments can meet their pressing obligations and begin to reduce their debts. " No one in Chicago minimizes the seriousness of the immediate Financial difficulty. Cook county is five months behind with its pay rolls. The city is three and a half nionths behind. School teachers have received no cash for months.
 Those who work for the city and the schools have exhausted their savings. borrowed to the Him. 1t of their credit and suffered actual privation because the city could not pay them.
 r The Chicago tax strike has been One of the most astonishing phe- nomena in American municipal history. It dates back to a re- Assessment of Cook county proper qty begun in 1928, but not com pleted until 1930. Even to-day only a percentage of taxes for the last four years has been collected.
 Mrs William Cisar, an Oak Park widow, refused to pay the tax on her home on the grounds that the .reassessment set its taxable value too high. Tbe case dragged in the courts. Other property owners Joined the strike, determined not 10 pay taxes until the legality of the reassessment had been passed on.
 The Illinois supreme court re- gently decided against Mrs Cisar. Eounty officials then declared that if taxes were not paid, property would be seized. County Judge Edmund K. Jarecki cooperated by Reducing delinquency penalties for those who would settle. Receivers for big properties are being com pelled daily to turn over their available cash to satisfy tax claims.
 The United States supreme court refused to review a similar case.
 A citizens committee headed by Fred W. Sargent, is recommending that the 1893 tax levy be slashed drastically and kept under $200.- 100000 if possible. That would be

 Through this economy. Sargent believes. the city can get back on its feet financially.
 "If those who spend the taxpay- ers' money will cooperate, we can trim our budget. It Is not so much matter of choice as of neces- sity," he said.
 Mayor Anton J. Cermak plans an attempt to reduce the 1893 city corporate budget below the $48,- 219,000 estimated as necessary by the city controller.
 Thus, Chicago is setting its house in order and calmly prepar- ing for the era of prosperity that the worlds fair is expected to usher in.

Constructive Action


Extension of the lawn water rate
through October and a reduction in
the price to be charged, announced
Thursday by the city commission, is
to be commended. The step meets
an urgent demand on the part of
householders who have done much to
give this city the splendid reputation
for beauty which it enjoys.
Incidentally, it proves the value of
a medium of free expression such as
that offered to the public in the
Peoples Forum, conducted by this
newspaper. 1t was the suggestion of
a contributor to this column which
laid emphasis upon the need for
action. 1t is to be assumed that the
city commission, had it appreciated
the situation which had developed as
a result of the present drought, would
have acted voluntarily. AS it is, they
and everyone in Bismarck profited
by this timely suggestion.
The suggestion that the water
rates may be still further reduced in
the spring also is welcome. Bismarck
enjoys the best water in the state but,
in comparison with the rates charged
at Fargo and some other places, it is
paying a heavy price for this public
service. Reduction in it's cost will not
only save money for the people al
ready here but will add another to
the many factors which make Bis
marck the fastest-growing city in the
state.

These are days when businessmen
are going after the shekels with new
energy and ideas, as may be DEM
onstrated by a recent action of the
Minneapolis Hotel association.
In order to fill their rooms they
are offering new service to North
west sport fans and, incidentally,
boosting the Little World Series, a
part of which will be played in the
Mill City from Oct. to 4.
Under the arrangement the hotels
are offering to reserve seats for such
patrons as ask them for reservations
and indicate a desire to see the base
ball games. 1t is an additional serv-
ice, offered in the hope of promoting
business, and is renewed evidence of
the growing spirit of cooperation in
business.
Perhaps the hotel men and the
baseball managers have heard SO
much about the value of cooperation
with regard to farm matters that
they are adapting the idea to their
own business.

The Importance of Corn

In connection with the State Corn
Show which will be held here Oct.
26-29, it is interesting to note the
importance attached to this crop by
the International Harvester company
in announcing its decision to con-
tiuue its leases on four demonstra-
ton farms in the Dakotas and Can
ada.
Discussing the experiences of 20
years at the Aberdeen, s. D., and
Larimore, N. D., farms, and a briefer
experience at Oak Lake, Manitoba,
and Gull Lake, Sask., the company's
extension department comments that
grain crops grown on corn land have
proved comparable to those grown on
land which was summer-fallowed.
Describing the place Of corn in the
crop rotation system adopted at these
farms, the harvester company says:
This corn land is seeded to
gram, ana mas proven pracClcally
the equal Of summer-fallow, from
which no income is derived. It
I costs very little more to grow
corn than to properly summer
fallow, and usually the corn crop
more than pays expenses, as feed
for livestock.
These great feed and soil inn
proyement crops have proven re-
liable u every way. We find them

leading skin specialists still entertain
quaint notions that acne is due to
eating sweets, pastries, fats, etc., there
Is no scientific or even clinical ground
to support the notions.
Milk Sugar
Why is milk sugar Oactose) recon-
mended with acidophilus milk? Is this
milk sugar or lactose different from
other sugars which are excluded from
the diet on account of acidity? Miss
B. H.
Answer-Lactose is the sugar natur-
ally present in milk. Theoretically it
is more readily fermented by the lac
tic bacilli to produce Tactic acid. Prac-
tically, believe cane sugar or glucose
(corn sugar. or any other sugar or
syrup is quite as effective. I believe
real buttermilk or natural sour milk,
If one likes it, is as efficient and
healthful as any artificial sour milk
beverage or any Tactic bacillus prep
aration.

ON THE HOOP
Duncan also recalls the tale of the
hoofer whose partner died. It was
decided that the living member of the
team should do a soft routine tattoo
at the funeral services.
When the eulogy had been read
the performer swung into a slow
dance. After which a professional
brother rushed over admiringly.
THAT was swell number, boy. 1t
was great!"
"Just watt" came back the hoofer,
until you catch my act at the grave"
Which, by the way, has more of the
hoofer psychology to it than you
might think.
