 The temporary program calls for $517,OO0,0 900 to reimburse the treas try for losses of revenue sustained with the passing of AAA processing taxes. This would be spread over three years, with Sl72,333,00O to be raised each year.
 Four Point Program
 His "four-point" program for im- posing these levies provides:
 i. A graduated tax on undistri- buted corporation surpluses, esti- mated by the treasury to raise $1,- 614,000,00 in 1896. This tax would not be retroactive.
 ?. The corporation surplus tax would be partially offset by repeal of the capital stock tax now yield ing @l63, 900, 900 annually; the cor- porate excess profit tax yielding $5,000, ,00o; the corporate income tax with an estimated yield for 1897 of $826, 100000 and exemptions in the present law on dividends.
 3. An excise tax on farm process sors, considerably lower than those imposed undner the AAA, to be spread over more products for a period of two or three years.
 4. A "windfall" tax to be levied against processors who benefited by the supreme courts rice millers' decision returning $i80,000,000 in impounded taxes, or who did not pay AAA taxes at all. Humping these and the excise tax together the President estimatde they would raise $517,000,000 required by the treasury for the current fiscal year,

liar results? Have not both been achieved at the price of deprivation of personal liberty. sacrificed for the good of the state?"
 No, communism has not been achieved in the Soviet union so far. It is not easy. But your term state socialism is not exact.
 Many people refer to condition as state socialism when consider able amount of national wealth passes to government ownership, sometimes for military advantage, even though the majority of wealth remains in private hands.
 "The social order which we have built up so far cannot be termed state socialism in this sense. The Soviet system is fundamentally sp- cialistic because there is not private ownership of factories. land, banks, railways, mines, etc. Our system - which not yet has been quite com- pleted-is socialistic because the foundation of society is common states ownership, ownership by the people or ownership by cooperatives and collective farms.
 Italian, German Fascism
 Italian Fascism or German na- tional socialism do not have any, thing in common with such a sys- tenn because in those countries pri- vate ownership of industry is not affected. Capitalism in those coun- tries still has full effectiveness.
 Under socialism a certain in- equality concerning property re- mains but there is no more unem- ployment, exploitation or oppression of one nationality by another Everybody is obliged to work and is compensated not according to his needs but according to the quantity and quality of the work.
 That is why wages have not been equalized. Only that society can be called communlstic in which people are compensated not on the basis Of the quantity or quality of the work produced but on the basis of their needs.
 Perhaps you think socialist Sos ciety discounts personal liberty, but that is not correct. If you are going to build house you must economize and make sacrifices. Even more 1t is true If you are building e new so- ciety.
 Limit Certain Demands "It is necessary for us temporarily to limit certain of our demands to accumulate the necessary resources We have made this sacrifice with the definite objective of developing real freedom in the best sense of the term"
 Do you view as compatible. 6talin was asked, "the coincldental development of American democracy and the Soviet system?"
 "Yes. American democracy and the Soviet system can exist and compete peacefully but one can never develop Into the other. Soviet democracy will never egelgA .ssae American democracy or vice versa.

Last Thursday evening the first
squad was called to the showers to
emerge a few minutes later in gor-
geous black and orange uniforms.
The team looks like a million dol

them feel quite the same. The
trunks are of satin black with or
ange trimming and the tops or
ange with black numerals.
AS these suits are quite expen-

think they could be used to bet

personality. 1t ELECTS better under

promotes greater respect, creates a
more tender sympathy and guaran-

LIONS DOWN PROSSER 1921
IN EXCITING OVERTIME GAME
LOCAL TEAM TAKES CLOSE
THRILLER WITH BRILLIANT
FINISH; DEFENSE GOOD

The Kennewick high school bas-
ketball team started the season off
with a bang last Friday when they
stopped Prosser in thrilling game
that ended in 81 to % score. This
is the first time in quite while
that K.H.S. has beaten them on
their own floor. Both teams played
tight defensive games and the scor-
ing was slow.
On the first tip-off Oliver streak
ed down the floor for the first tai
lies, seven seconds after the start
er's whistle. The Mustangs then
frightened their defense and the
quarter ended 4 to in our favor.
The second quarter was also spent
trying to find flaws in each others
defense and the half ended z to 6,
still in favor of the locals.
In starting of the half the Mus
tangs started potting baskets quite
regularly and were ahead when
the third quarter ended. Near the
first of the fourth quarter Silliman,
scrappy guard, was sent in the tilt
and played havoc with Prosser's
game, both offensive and defensive.
With one minute and 20 seconds to
go and the lead cut to six points
the Lions called time and rallied
their forces to tie the game up at
Is all. A five minute overtime per-
iod was agreed upon and Kenne-
wick, after five minutes of fast
breaking and fine exhibition of
stalling emerged the victors by
score of 81 to %.
Prosser's points were pretty well
divided among the players and Oil
yer accounted for the larger portion
of the winners counters.
The lineup: Reymore, IF; Oil
yer, If; Green, center; Williams, re-;
Jones lg;; subs, Silliman and Tai
bolt.
The preliminary game was played
by the second teams in which Ken
newick was beaten 10 to z. Brown
was high point man for our boys.

SEMESTER TEST
GETS US DOWN

Dance halls are empty! Theaters
are going broke! Yes, even church
is being forsaken by the students
preparing for semester examina-
lions. Everyone has either a woeful
or hopeful expression, no laughter
echoes from the halls and class
rooms and the institution has taken
on morguish atmosphere. It strikes
us as sad that our happy place of
learning should change this way
and that our congenial, good-heart-
ed teachers should assume Siman
Legree Like expressions, but maybe
Wen find the silver lining after the
tests.
