46 FIRMS OF CITY
TO PAY $l5,O99 ON
PERSONAL TAXES
46 Over 500 Mark This Year;
Light and Power Heads
List With $4,288

Forty-six Redwood Falls firms will
pay more than 500 in personal pro-
perty taxes this year, an increase of
six over last year, the list published
in this issue of The Gazette reveals.
Rising taxes and increased stocks
bring eight firms over the 500 mark
while two are dropped from last
years list of 40, making 46 for this
year. Higher rates, due in part to
the reduction in the taxable value of
homesteads, mean higher taxes than
last year for all but six on the list.
Most of the firms pay considerably
more than in 1884.
Largest by big margin is still
the Redwood Falls Light and Power
company with $4,288 as its quota.
Second is Citizens State bank with
$1,328.34 to pay while Montgomery
Ward has third honors with $725.68.
The total assessed against the 46
firms is $15,099.72. Excluding Closz-
Holmberg, Inc. which was not here
last year, the remaining As will pay
$14,943.81 compared with $12,7S8 last
year.

TWO DANGERS
 TO U. s. TOLD
 AT CEREMONY
Rev. Budde Gives Address at M e rial Day Ob-
 servance This Morning

Excessive power in the hands oi small number of wealthy men and anti-government propaganda from outside sources are two dang CTS which are confronting the na- tion, the Rev Edward C. Budde oi the Catholic Church of the Nativ- ity said this morning at a Memor- ial Day ceremony sponsored by the American Legion in Elks Hall this morning.
 The ceremony officially opened the city's annual tribute to the na- tion's war dead. A parade, which followed the ceremony, and brief memorial services at Government Dock and at Evergreen Cemetery, were other formal events on the program. A baseball game this afternoon and a dance at the Moose Hall tonight also were planned.
 The Rev Budde spoke before public gathering which included cit izens, American Legion members, a detachment from the Coast Guard cutter Tallapoosa. and the Juneau City Band.
 Must Guard
 There are two forces at work in the nation today which we, in pausing to remember our War dead, must guard against the Rev. Budde said. One is the power of the wealthy Oppression of the poor, a breakdown of the morale of the nation, and self destruction through communistic tendencies are bound to result unless we check this wealth power.
 Secondly, there is the ever-pres- ent danger of propaganda from outside sources. These insiduous agents constantly are a. work and you in the American Legaon and other patriotic organizsi.o-s must prevent their growth. Careful care in casting your vote in pa5lie cleo tions and a thorough knowledge Of their workings are two ways !n which they may be stopped.
 Before he told of the dangers confronting the nation, the Rev Budde paid fitting tribute to the War dead He said that their sac rifice must remind us of the multi fold blessings which we receive and a duty which we bear to our nation both in times of peace and war"
 Karnes Is Chaplain
