HOOYERHOPES
FOR TAX CUT
I
Definite Program Depends
On Effects of Laws
On Treasury

WASHINGTON, July 2
President Hoover <s hopeful that
the treasury surplus at. the end or
the fiscal year just closed may lead
to a reduction in federal taxes, but
he still feels there are many factors j
to be determined before a definite
program can be formulated.
Before tax reduction can be af- i
fected, the president said today, the j
effect upon the treasury of legisla
tion approved in the last 12 months
must be determined, the extent to
which routine expenditures can be I
reduced must be known, ana pro.-?- !
pective revenue must be more closely
estimated.
By November 1, the president said, 1
these things should be known. He I
did not say, however, whether he I
thought it possible to introduce tax
revision legislation at the regular
session of congress next winter.

SNAKE HOVERS

ON LIGHT GLOBE

DURING SERMON
MARSHALLVILLE, Ga„ July 2.
—(jf>)—a huge rattlesnake said to
be more than six feet long and al
most five inches in circumference,
participated in the services held
at the Methodist church here
Sunday by Rev. M. T. Webb.
Only the pastor was aware of the
presence of the reptile.
The pastor was exDOunding the
doctrines of his faith, when to
emphasize one cf his remarks,
he threw his glance heavenward.
His voice died away, but his
glance remained. Peering over
one of the globes in the chande
lier, was the snake, its beady eyes
fixed upon the pastor.
Rev. Mr. Webb, realizing the j
panic that would ensue it the |
congregation knew of the snake’s ;
presence, continued with the |
service. At its conclusion he j
gathered his board of stewards
together and with a long pole j
they dislodged the reptile and i
killed it. 1

A Valley-wide organization for
advertising the entire section may |
grow out of a move launched at the j
regular weekly luncheon of the Ki
wariis club here at noon Tuesday. I
following an address by R. E.
Friedman, who recently has moved
here from Indianapolis, Ind.
“The Valley as a whole should
take its light out from under the
bushel and spread its fame j
throughout the United atates,” I
Friedman told his hearers.
“This all is one large city front- !
ing on the Valley Main street. Let’s j
pool resources and advertise the j
wonders of the section to the
section to the world. Chambers of j
commerce all up and down the
Valley are spending a few dollars
here and a few dollars there. This
money should be put into one fund
and used to tell the message of
the Valley over the nation.”
Friedman said he knew three
Valley leaders who were ready to
contribute $5000 each to a Valley
wide advertising campaign and ex
pressed the belief that others
would join in.
At the close cf his talk consider
able enthusiasm was shown for the
proposal and Harry Faulk an- ;
ncunced the matter would be
brought before the Valley Kiwanis
council at a regular meeting
•July 12.
During the discussion a resolu
tion was passed expressing apure
ciation to The Brownsville Herald
for the stand taken by this news
paper for a Valley-vide publicity
campaign, when it was known the
money would be spent in other
publications.

PENSIONS ARE
HIKED FOR AGED
Confederate Veterans And
Widows Over 75 to Get
$25 Each Month ~
By RAYMOND BROOKS
AUSTIN. July 2.—Confederate
veterans and Confederate widows
over 75 years of age will receive $25
per month pension, under the new
pension law of this session of the
legislature.
Sen. Thomas B. Love, speaking
on “personal privilege." urged the
passage of his bill which will permit
the pension fund borrowing money
from the general revenue to pay the
younger widows the same amount
of pension. The money would be
refunded out of late pension receipts,
he pointed out.
There are 4.500 widows who would
be reduced from the former $19 a
month to about $13 a month, Sen.
Love said.
Before'this legislature changed the
pension law, all pensioners were re
ceiving approximately $19 per
month.. The regular session at
tempted to raise the old soldiers to
$50 a month, and to change the
payments from quarterly to month
ly. This was found to exhaust the
fund and leave the widows with
virtually no pension.
Then the legislature changed the
law to give the veterans and all
widow’s over 75 years of age $25 per
month, payable quarterly; the bal
ance of the fund being divided
among the younger widows. This,
Senator Love said, will reduce them
$13 a month.
Senator Love’s bill passed unani
mously in the senate ana w’as await
ing committee action in the house
in the final hours of the session.
