DEMANDS TAXATION OFF General Tax to Yield $10,000,000 Less Than Last Year. MAMPON. General property In Wisconsin will yield about lin.fifin.ooii less In taxes during this flscnl year than It Old in inn.

This estimate, based on the ledue- tion in asressed valuations as comput ed by the stnte tax commission, and coupled with a heavy Increase in tax linnuewiest vlll provide county taunts and municipalities with a ser ious problem wlu get down to fixing the local tax rn'ea this fall. Officials of the tax commission point out that a lowering; of properly valuations, which has been more marked this year than ever before means one of two things paring expenditures somewhere along the line or Increasing tax rates. I.O-e Admit Million Recent public agitation callln? for reduction in governmental expenditures disclosed fear In some quarters that tax rate fiving bodies would remit to the method of raising new taes. Within a few days the tax commission exptcts to make public a tabulation of general proprty valuations by counties showing how the 1931 actual lass of on the tax rolls Is distributed smong the county units. The removal of this sum from the tax rolls means that two cents in each dollar, th average rate throughout the state, will be th amount of taxrs lost, or ft total of $8.914.

Until the last legislature met It had been the policy of the state for 55 years to levy fixed mill taxes for edurallonal purposes but those levies cere repealed, vith a levislon of the budget laws.

It Is now the duty of the governor by the third Monday In October whether It will be neeesary to levy a state tax to make up the losses and how much the rate shall be.

WASHINGTON The Interstate Commerce commission today closed two months and a half of hear ings on the railroads' request for a 15 per cent freight rate increase and took the case under advisement. A decision Is expected In three or four weeks. The hearings ended with Abuttal arguments by attorneys for the railroad security holders. Cites Wage Cutting Ancle During the closing arguments Gren-villo Clark of New York, representing security holders, told the commission that a refusal to increase rates would participate a nationwide controversy on the question of cutting railroad wages. Clyde Brown, chief attorney for the New York Central, said he felt the commission had no alternative under the transportation act but to Increase rates.

Congress, he assorted, had made this mandatory on a showing by the railroads that their revenues were below a fair return. Kefirs to I Rcfcirlng to railroad wages, Brown asked the commission to remember that In 1922 when it reduced railroad rates a cut In wages of railroad em ployes was effected on the same date. The railroads filed their petition for the increase on June 17 and on July 15 hearings were started. Except for a brief recess between presentation of the railroads' case and and the taking of shippers' testi mony and ten days for filing of briefs the commission has been occupied throughout the summer with the case.

WASHINOTON (A1) The pro-pnsal of Calvin ConllrlRC for "a solid front In aupport of the president" Is to he the hub about which republican orsanlration leaders will rnlly their force for rcnomlnatlcu of Herbert Hoover. The veteran party pilots for the most part accept Mr.

Coolldge's cops righted article In the Saturday Fvenlng Post disclaiming any Interest In Immediate return to the presidency a definitely ellmlnatlnj him from next year's political race. Independent Are Cuol But the appeal of the former president for "party loyalty" la viewed with lew warmth among republican Independents of the northwest who have opposed sonic of the major Hoover policies. Senator Brookhart, republican, Iowa, called for progressive program and it progressive alter reading the Coolidge article. H-; mentioned as possible candidates Senators Borah of Idaho: Norrls of Nebraska; Johnson of California: of Wisconsin, and Governor Pinchot of Pennsylvania. there were a few In the republican congressional fold of re-ulars whs kept their silence on the Coolidge declaration.

They Intimated privately their belief that the former presldi nt must not yet be counted out of the 1932 contest. Must Renominate Hoover However, republican stalwarts su'h as Scnatrr Watson of Indiana. floor IcbcIt: Senator Fers of Ohio-, the national rhalrman: and Representative Wood of Indiana, chairman of the appropriations comm't-tee, looked back over 50 years of political history and refected that It was the thing for Mr. Coolidge to do and the thing for the party to do now was to renominate Herbert Hoover. Mr.

Coolidge in his article said, In part: "Those who are suggesting, under the present disturbed conditions In our own country and In the world, that ft former president should use his prestige to attempt to secure a nomination against a of his own party, probihly have not stopped to consider fully what would be Implied by such ft course. XXX "It ha beep my purpose to refrain from doing or saying anything that could be construed as Indicating tin Intention again to seek publb office.

Thus, the republican leaders generally agree that any contest against IT'S DIFFERENT NOW WASHINGTON PV Perhaps his recent literary activities are responsible hut terse President Coolidge differs from Calvin CoolldRe, private citizen, In statement wordnge. The former president's magazine article saying he did not seek the presidency in 1932 took nearly words.

His pre-campalgn statement Shout the 1928 raea took ten: do not choose to run for president In 1928." Mr. Hoover's renominatlon has narrowed to one from the Independent faction. This group Is not now united behind any single candidate. President Hnovax himself maintained silence on the Coolidge statement although he was confronted with a batch of questions about It among the written Inquiries of the newspaper correspondents at yesterday's press conference. Senator Fess, the chairman, and Robert Lucas, executive director of the republican national committee, accepted the article and promptly called for the renominatlon of the president.

Should Quiet Criticism "The announcement," Fess said, "has been evident to all thinking people who arc acquainted with past history and who arc familiar with the character and public attitude of Mr, Coolidge. His statement should quiet the manufactured clamor of the nntl-admlnlstrallon element. It also assures the all but unanimous renominatlon of President Hoover and will be one of the determining factors In his re-election."

Rl I.I.FTIN PARIS (U.R) The government Is seeking to rearrange the sailing date of Tremler Pierre Laval to allow him ten days In America and permit him to visit Canada. It Is now planned for the premier to sail Oct. 14 and remain In America from Oct. 20 to 30 for his visit with President Hoover and the trip to Canada.

The sailing of the He Dc France, It was understood, would be changed accordingly. PARIS (U.R) Pierre Laval, premier of France, in an exclusive survey of world finanrlal and economic troubles for thu United Press today, declared his faith in complete recovery. He furnished an answer to the problem which has bothered many economists as to why France is apparently rich and busy, her workers fully employed and her mills and factories humming, while her neighbors and America are suffering from trade depression. "I have no doubt that world com merce and industry will eventually recover from its present troubles and, perhaps, be stronger than ever, but other countries must first make sacrifices as great as FrSnre made In 1926 and finances must be restored to a healthy condition by a sane compression of expenses to revenue," Laval said In summarizing his opinion. Due to Careful Balancing France's present good fortune Is due, In his opinion, only to a careful bal anclng of her disbursements and re sources.

In his survey he based the present French banking, commercial and in dustrial strength on the following foundation: 1. France has rsmalned agricul tural, despite her tremendous industrial and commercial expansion. Diversified agriculture never knows de pression. 2 Sensible protectionism. France has a tariff barrier which Is designed to protect both farmer and manufac.

turer. Thus wheat In France is selling today at $1.70 a bushel, compared with less than 50 cents in Canada and the United Stales. Careful Emigration Control 3 Careful control of emigration and limiting foreign workers by labor permits to those trades only needed by French Industry and agriculture. 4 Courageous wielding of the economy axe by Polncare In 1928 when all spending departments of the government found their funds slashed by decree. 5.

The maintenance of an armed force sufficient to obligo the respect of frontiers and neighbors, thus assuring French industrialists, peasants and business men of safety and creating a sense of security and public confidence.

Boldt was appointed chairman of a committee during the last session to study proposals for this state's representation In the fair. But a bill providing for necessary funds was lost with others In the filibuster which ended the session, the senator pointed out. "The committee's hands are tied," Boldt said. "We haven't any mony and we haven't even 'official' right to ask for it."

The Idea, of a referendum has heretofore been stead fast ly opposed by the dry's on the ground that a clear-cut Issue Is not possible either because of the problem of getting a satisfactory wording of the question to be submitted or because of present election machinery for prohibition would become complicated with other local Issues and questions voted on at the same time.
