dents Budget Challenge Soon

Cleveland, Ohio, Jan 1.-Sen.
Robert A. Taft this week will
answer the Presidents budget
challenge with . plan to stop
Federal deficits, 1t was announc-
ed heer today.
Under the title, "Mr. Presi-
dent, Here's How to Balance the
Budget" the Ohio Senator will
speak today before the Chicago
Bar Association. His speech will
be heard over the Blue network
of the National Broadcasting
company at $50 to 1000 EST.
The Senator's recent state
ments and the Presidents reply
have brought the Issue Of govern
ment spending moro forcefully
before the public than at any
time since the New Deal took
office. After Senator aft, during
his recent trip through New
England. declared that deficit

1899, according to r. Bruce Cook
president Of the Mcdowell coun-

Gasoline prices have been a
bout 7.5 cents per gallon below
prices prevailing in 1923, the
year selected by the govern.

said Mr.. Cook. On the gasoline
consumed by motor vehicle
owners in this state in 1899, the

and economies all along the
line from producer to consumer,
the cost of gasoline to the pub
lie, exclusive of taxes, has been
cut nearly in half since the nor

Cook.
These lower gasoline prices
have stimulated greatly auto
mobile ownership. Since 1923
more than 10, 100000 families
in the United States have be-
come car owners. The United

State Sales Tax Collection Big

Noble F. Conner, of the W.
Va, State Tax department in a
prediction states that the col
lection of consumers sales tax
es in December, will be the
largest in history.
He stated that the December
record was set in 1886 when the
total collections amounted to
$985,0O0, and predicted when
January collections on the Dec,
1889 business is reported that
it should show over million
d!Oars.
He calls attention to the in
crease in business throughout
the state during the holiday
season and predicts that there
will be quite an increase in the
state tax as a result.

ed that cuts in various bureaus
will more than offset the in
crease to be recommended for
national defense.
With public sentiment over
whelmfngly behind Senator
Taft in his belief that deficits
can be stopped, New Deal spokes-
men have been silent as to their
former claims that a steadily
increasing public debt is the
route to prosperity. A year ago,
this doctrine was being proclaim
ed as build-up for the big bud
get for the present fiscal year.
/. Now, with an election year here,
it is evident that fiscal sails are
being trimed.
But "a substantial deficit is
! still expected in the budget es-
innate next week. Usually the
actual expenditures for given
year are much in excess of the
January figure. The cut in the
deficit, it is estimated, will be
due in large part to better
prospects for Federal revenue
because of the wartime upturn
| in business also to a tapering
off of public works and other
programs from past high levels.
Thus, the real job of budget
balancing, by cutting non-essen-
tials and retaining essential
releief and public services, re-
mains to be done.
In Boston on December IL, a
! few hours after the President s
press conference, Senator Taft
said: "Of course the budget
should be balanced, and by the
reduction of government eX-
| pense. We cannot go on with
| deficit and debt. A careful study
| of the budget indicates that it
| could be balanced nabout two
years at a figure of approxima-
tely seven billion dollars.
"The administrations apollo
gists always say the budget can
| not be balanced. There is only
| one conclusion found to that
argument. That conclusion is ma
tional bankruptcy and infila-
ton, of the American system of
free enterprise, and probably the
destruction of democracy itself.
It is an unthinkable alternative.
Senator Taft has referred the
country to the Presidents budget
balancing promises of 1882 as a
strong argument for a return to
sanity in the management of
| the peoples money.

Brindisi Heavily Roided
By r. A. r., British Soy

CAIRO, Nov. 8 (P).-The British
announced yesterday their first
notable offensive thrust of the Su-
danese campaign and reported a
heavy r. A. F. raid on Brindisi,
naval base at the heel of the Italian
boot.
The reported raid on Brindisi was
the first, although Naples, across
the peninsula, has been bombed
thrice since the Greek campaign
began.
A communique said the raid took
place Tuesday night and reported
that bomb bursts and steady fires
were observed in the naval dock
yard, destroyer and submarine pens,
the main railway junction and rail-
way SidingS.
-AsSab, in Eritrea, also was raided,
the communique said, the bombs
starting a fire visible 40 miles away.
The army command likewise re-
ported land pressure by a British
mobile force on an Italian detach-
ment on the Sudanese-Eritrean Dor
der near KaSSala.
The r. A. F. acknowledged that
italian planes had damaged Perrin
Island in the Red Sea.

Rowing Radiator
Brings Heat to
Cold Spots

Almost every household has need
of occasional, quick extra heat al
some time. If a child is i'll, an
elderly person has a chill or a tiny
baby is being bathed, direct heat
that may be used without danger
is a great convenience. A radiator
on wheels that may be plugged into
a light socket is the answer to this
problem.
These come in several sizes for AC
or DC current and ITO or 220 volts
They have thermostatic control and
the automatic cutoff insures low
current cost. There is no open wire
to turn red hot or any other danger
point. Water within the radiator
is heated TO warm the radiator just
like the steam or hot-water furnace
might do.
In an Office where large window
areas radiate cold, this is real COM
fort for the one with desk close
to the cold area. In the children S
play room on a cold winter day, 1t
will give that extra few degrees of
warmth to make playing on the
floor safe. During illness, when or
binary household heat is insufficient
for the one who is not moving
may be rolled up on wheels and
placed beside the bed or chair, is
a good investment in quick recovery
