The Mexican army, on the other

men. and every year sees an In
creasing number of professional

The reluctance of army officers
to be drawn into the recent cleo

In former days many would have
rushed to revolution. But the
American spirit of an army at the
disposal Of the civil authority is
replacing the old Mexican tradi-

Young men hoping TO make n
career of the army are slower to
back what may prove to be the
wrong horse. and thus end a
promising life.

Teachers Salaries Cut
By Stute Board

Jackson, Miss, May 31.-A 5 per
cent reduction in the standard white
teachers salary for the coming school
year was voted Friday by the State
Board of Education.
This means that instead Of usiRg
$40 per month for white teachers
salaries, $66.50 will be the standard
for next session" the board an
nounced.
The formal statement said the
board was very reluctant to make
any reductions in any items of the
standards and did so only after a
careful study showed hat the reduc-
tons mentioned were absolutely nee
essary."
All counties and separate school
districts also will receive 10 cents
per educable child less next session
than was received last year under
the tentative allotments made Friday
by the board.
The board said this was due to the
fact the total per capita money APP
p~ropriated for next session in the
same as that used last year, and
there has been a large increase in
the number of educable children.

Early Approval OF FDR's
Defense Program Is
Predided
Senator Harrison Begins
Movement For New
Tax Bill Post Week

Washington, June 6.-Having laid
the groundwork in a series of con
f~erences with President Roosevelt,
Secretary of the Treasury Henry Nor
genthau and other officials for COZ
s~ideration before adjournment of
Congress of methods to finance the
Presidents SO, 1000, 0oO, 900 national de-
Tense program, Senator Harrison of
Mississippi, chairman of the Senate
Finance Committee, today predicted
early approval of some form Of new
tax legislation.
While the revenue measure must or
iginate in the House, Senator Harri-
son has already this week held two
meetings of the Senate Finance Com
mittee to explore all angles of the
plan to provide for the defense ex
pansion through an increase of 3d.
DOC, 000, 900 debt limit. The $3,000,-
100000, under the program, would be
amortized over a five-year period
through an increase in certain exist
ing taxes designed to raise between
5000, 900, 900 and 100000 900 annually.
Hearings on the plan have begun
before the House Ways and Means
Committee. Whether the program will
reach the Senate as outlined is, of
course, undetermined al this time,
but it is certain the problam of fin
ancing will be worked out at least in
part before adjournment. The stop
gap" revenue proposal is likely to be
adopted in some form, with a COM
panion measure calling for a gen.
eral ~overhauling of the tax filed this
Fall or at the next session.
Senator Harrison began the move
ment for a new tax bill last week.
AS it gained the w~hole-hearted en-
dorsement of the President. Senator
Harrison continued his conferences
with Secretary Morgenthau and I'm
der Secretary Daniel Bell. On the
floor of the Senate, he opened his
explanation of the Administration
proposal with this statement, the
first word to the public there would
be a tax measure at this session;
Il am clearly convinced that we
ought to begin during this session
to provide sufficient sinews of war
n the form of funds to meet every
emergency that may raise and to meet
the debt obligations of the govern
ment."
