Recent depredations by Ketchikan marksmen, have caused the police chief to consider strongly the limits of the city. An incident oc cured recently that more than ever convinced the chief he was right. Con- plaint was registered that a telephone cable on Quinn street had been punctured with BIB shot. As a result the whole section of the city was put out of business until the trouble was locat- ed and repaired. The holes were just large enough to admit water and for all pur poses the cables might as well have been cut in two. The chief says from now on parents of the boys will pay for damage done.

The thrill that comes from
sending model airplanes whizzing

young Dudley Hill, "a Kenilworth

pilot when he grows up"
Dudley's hobby is building
model airplanes and he is so &C.
complished that he has won sew
eral prizes for his model aircraft,
including the junior champion
ship in 1884. Young Hill is a
student at woodrow Wilson High
School. He said:
Eve been building model
airplanes ever since I was 8
years old. That first plane was
q riot. I bought . kit to make
the plane and lost all the
pieces. But from that point
on, got along pretty well.
"When 1 am old enough I
hope to be a real pilot, not one
that just sends little planes
through the air."

PLUMLEY RAPS
TAX BILL

A severe indictment Of the
Democratic sponsored tax bill now
pending in the House on the
grounds that it twill get only the
little fellow who is trying to build
up his business" was launched
late yesterday by Representative
Charles A. Plumley (R) of Yer
mont in an address in the House
Denying the argument Of the
proponents of the measure that
enactment of the bill will result in
breaking up existing SURPRISES, Mr.
Plumley asserted that the measure
will affect only SURPRISES which
may be accumulated in the future.
He declared that the existing sur
pluses will remain intact and will
not be reached by the bill.
Contending that the proposed
act will aid the large corporations
at the expense of the little fel'
lows" Mr.. Plumley told the House
This should be called an act
to encourage monopoly and to
prevent competition. Its purpose
is to keep the little business
little"
The Vermont Representative
also criticized the Democratic
party for permitting huge expen-
ditureS to continue, and asserted
that the proposed tax act will not
bring the budget anywhere near
balance. He urged that the Ad-
ministration turn it's attention to
substantially reducing Govern
ment expenditures before attempt
ing to impose greater taxes.
In conclusion, he denounced the
bill as "impracticable, unenforce-
able and unavailable 4"

HARB0R
GROUP EYES
FLOODS

Approximately 1000 projects,
calling for the expenditure OF
more than eight billion dollars,
running the gamut of the entire
flood control problem from tree
planting to harbor improvement,
are being considered today by the
projects committee Of the Ma
tional Rivers and Harbors Con-
gresS, which is meeting at the
Mayflower Hotel.
The projects are the most com.
prehensive approach to abolition
Of annual floods, soil erosion and
development Of rivers and har'
bors that has ever been Sug'
gested in the United States. Rep
resentative William J. Driver,
CD, of Arkansas, chairman OF
the committee. declared.
Driver Maps Program
Mr.. Driver, for eight years q
members of the House COMMITTEES
on flood control, and now mem
Der Of the House Rules Commit
tee. said: .
"This country is facing an
emergency situation In these
annual floods. It is one Of the
cOuntry's greatest problems.
mot only have we cut the
timber and eliminated q natural
reservoir for rain and snow
water, but we have Strengthened
streams and increased the run
off to q point never before at
tanned.
'In eliminating the natural
reservoirs and increasing the
run-Off we have brought about
soil erosion and filling Of stream
beds, thus reducing their carry.
ing capacity. The average DAM
age done annually by floods now
is estimated at 500 million dol
lars.
Then, too, in the Western
plains, farmers have plOwed up
land that is inSufficiently
watered. Winds have blown
away the top soil and that has
brought the horrible dust
storms. This condition must be
met; water must be put on that
soil to hold it together"
Four Types Of Projects
The committee studies the prof.
ects, which fall into four claSsifi.
cations-those which have had
thorough study by engineers and
other experts and on which com
plete reports are available; those
on which there are incomplete re-
ports: suggested projects, which
are reported to National Rivers
and Harbors Congress for re-
ports, and those projects which are
recommended as meritorious but
which have not been studied and
reported on from an engineering
standpoint-and recommends the
ones it considers worthy to the
congress.
Practically every waterways and
flood control organization in the
country will be represented at the
congress, Mr.. Driver said. The
congress will recommend projects
to the House and Senate and it is
from these that the national legiS.
lation is drawn.
