rallied later. Bank stocks contin-
ued weak, showing sharp declines
from yesterday and breaks ranging
TO more than 100 points from last
Saturdays closing levels.
Utilities behaved better in the
cary stock trading after their drop
yesterday. They we're 'among the
lirst to drop in the last hour sell
ing, however.
Sales totaled $4,000 shares,
against 100000 shares yesterday.

INSPECTION OF
BALLOTS MAY
END TONIGHT

Inspection of the ballots cast in
the last general election at which
George Burnham defeated Claude
Chandler as congressman, was con-
tinued this morning at the court
house. 1t was hoped that the exam
ination would be completed by 6

Ballots are being inspected for
Identification, with Senator Leroy
A. Wright of San Diego, Don C.
Bitter, and Ben Burnham, repre-
senting Burnham, and Francis

An amusing incident occurred
last night when the two court re-
porters, absorbed in their work,
were accidentally locked in at the
court house where the inspection
is taking place. BY dint of open
ing window they were able to
shout news of their plight to a
passerby who proceeded to their
rescue.

.BUNNELL URGES BIC ALLOWANCE
 FOR DEPLETION
Would Raise it from l5 to 50 Per Cent in Calcu-

Congress ought to allow the gold producers of the country deple- tion reduction of 50 per cent in- stead of the Is per cent now al- lowed in computing the Federal in- come tax, declared President Charles E. Bunnell, who visited here yes terday enroute to his home at the Alaska College near Fairbanks He suggested this to members of Con- gress, the American Mining Con- gress and others in the East, and amplified it in a 20-minute talk before the Seattle Chamber of Con- merce last week.
 Canada already grants a similar allowance to gold miners. he said If the United States should do so it would offer fine inducement to capital to engage in the ex- ploration for new deposits in Al aska, he added.
 Summarizes His Address
 pr. Bunnell's talk to the Seattle organization was warmly commend cd. He summarized it yesterday as follows:
 Right now the people of the United States are responding tc the slogan, Buy Americal' It is a good policy to follow but in order to do much buying it is necessary to have cash with which to moke the purchases. We are too much on the debt basis
 "The national debt is now in excess of s2l, ,oO0,oOO,OO0 and the agricultural industry of the Unit ed States is mortgaged to over s9,- 00O.O00,0 900.

NORTHAMPTON, Mass,

NORTHAMPTON, Mass, Jan. ,. Calvin Coolidge, former President of the Unit ed States, was found dead in his home here by his wife at noon today when she return ed from a shopping tour.
 Death was apparently from heart trouble.
 Mir. Coolidge had apparent- Iy been dead about 15 min- utes when found.
 The former President had gone to his office, as usual, this morning, and then re- turned home with his secre- tary about 10 o'clock.
 He had complained of in- digestion for the past two or three weeks but had not con- suited a doctor for the past month.
 MT. Coolidge's secretary, Harry Ross, said there was nothing to indicate that MT. Coolidge felt indisposed. The two sat talking for some time, then MT. Coolidge went upstairs.
 Ross waited for him to come down and dismiss him for luncheon, as was his cus- tom. He was still waiting W h e n Mrs. Coolidge came home, went upstairs and found her husband dead.
 DOCTORS CALLED Doctors who were summon ed and made an examination, said death was due to heart failure.
 The body was on a bed in room of the house at the Beeches Estate to which he retired at the conclusion of his career in the National Capital.
 QUIET LIFE Coolidge had been leading a quiet life since his return to Northampton. After Hoov- CT was inaugurated, his daily program varied little. Ordi- narily he spent part of the day in his law office, with occasional writing upon maga- zine articles. He contributed to several publications. He had rarely been i'll. Born On Vermont Farm Born and reared in the humble surroundings of a Vermont farm, Calvin Coolidge was destined to go by successive steps to the highest and mightiest office of a great nation. to administer it's affairs for six years and to determine his Presidential career virtually of his own volition.

model OF DIVER
. To Be SHOWN

It takes only six. months for
the Navy to make a model diver,
but it takes even longer to make
a diver model.
Chief Gunner's Mate G. r.
Boone, master diver at the Navy
Yard, knows. He's just completed
a miniature diver.
The model Is in perfect scale
and complete to, the last detail
A small air pump made Of 'alumi.
mum actually supplies air pres
sure to the divers suit. A tiny
sheath knife, a telephone head
set, lines, valves, and other div
ing suit accessories are all in
proper place.
It wasn't an easy job, Boone
admits, and took since last April
when he came to the experiment
tai diving school at the Navy
Yard here from San Diego.
He made the model during his
spare time at the school. Now
it's done he isn't quite sure what
to do with it, but will exhibit it
at down town jewelry store
soon and then probably offer 1t
for sale.
