BULLS NEED HAVE NO FEAR OF BEAR TRAP Howard Sutherland Holds Key to World's Most Peculiar Trusteeship. WASHINGTON, March 20-(AP)The bulls of Wall street need have no fears, say Washington officials, that a bear trap will be sprung by Howard Sutherland, who holds the key to the world's most peculiar trusteeship. As the nation's fifth alien property custodian, he holds a club, which it wielded, might cause either a break or a rise in the big industrials stock market barometer through private or open market sale. but his associates see no such disturbance on the financial horizon. This club represents some 000 in stock in about 1200 American companies and is held for the count of aliens from whom it during the war.

former, Some fears have been expressed since the recent private sale of a large block of Maryland holdings by the custodian that further important liquidations might follow. he Western Maryland sale which brought into trust accounts more than $4,000,000, together with the announcement that to consent of foreign owners would be sought to sell the remainnig 11.000 shares held by them in the road, does not mean, officials here declared, that the custodian has adopted or will adopt a general liquidation policy with regard to the stocks now on hand. of Pennsylvania railroad, Baltimore This stock, including large, blocks and Ohio, United States Steel, Anaconda Copper, bank stock and Philippine holdings, all of which has an estimated market value of about $50,000,000, as compared with a book value placed at time of seizure of about $40,000,000 will be held intact, it is explained, and not disposed of, except perhaps in small amounts and then only when the owners desire. Another sale by the custodian negotiated at about the same time as that of the Western Maryland brought about $400,000 for an as yet unnamed railroad stock, but it is pointed out that this, like outh Western Maryland was carried only at the request of the owners and at the price they stipulated.

WASHINGTON, March economy" and the treatment accorded the democratic tax reduction program at the last session of congress came in for attack today from two democratic quarters. Asserting that appropriations by the last congress were nearly four times as great as in 1916 under the Wilson administration, the democratnational committee, in a statement, asked: "What about this Coolidge economy 80 industriously asserted and reasserted by overlings and echoed and re-echoed by underlings?" Chairman Oldfield of the democratic national congressional committee declared in a statement that American consumers this year will pay nearly $1,000,000,000 more in living costs than they would have had the democratic tax revision plan been adopted by the last congress. "While nobody should expect appropriations to be no greater now than, the they were national before committee the world statement added, appropriations are still double what they were in 1916 deducting appropriations for tax refunds, prohibition enforcement. cooperative road building and forest reserve roads, items which appeared since the 1916 budget." The committee asserted that the nine years a which have elapsed since the armistice would appear sufficient time to get back "near a state of normalcy," "Coolidge economy," the statement concluded, "requires budgetary genuity to 'construe' a. twofold and fourfold increase in appropriations as a Estimating a surplus this year of more than $500,000,000 from income tax payments, Chairman Oldfeld said President Coolidge and republican leaders in the senate now favor a tax revision plan also identical with the bill introduced by democratic members of the house ways and means commitee.

That bill, he added, would have reduced taxes $350,000,000 but was defeated by the republicans who claimed the surplus would not exceed $400,000,000 and held any cut would be unsafe. "The corporation tax reduction proposed the democrats," he continued, "would have been of great relief to the smaller corporations and would have saved the consuming public hundreds of millions of dollars for 70 per cent of the corporation tax is passed on and pyramided, so that if the rates had lowered as proposed, effective on taxes now being paid, the total benefit to all of the people would have been close to a billion dollars. "These facts should not be forgotten by the public, now that republican leaders are SO enthusiastically for the tax relief we proposed and they so stubbornly and successfully opposed. "The republicans having come around to the democratic position on tax reform, I hope that by next December they will also be willing join us in a readjustment of the thariff by reducing some of the present exorbitant duties on necessaries of life and thus further contribute a reduction in the cost of living at the same time furnish a large measure of farm relief, which Coolidge administration has also nied." EASTERN BUYS MORE REO SPEED WAGONS The Eastern Furniture Company has set the seal of its approval in no unmistakable upon the Reo Speed Wagon, truck of manner, service, by placing an order for few more of these trucks to complete its already large fleet, which is used in moving and filling the large orders from all over this section of the state. The first truck will be delivered very soon.

It is being expected to arrive any day now and the other speed. wagons will be forwarded to the Eastern as soon as ready. The special bodies for these trucks are being prepared at the plant of the C. E. Darling Automobile Company in Auburn.

The large purchase by the Eastern Furniture Co. after long service, of additional speed wagons, is a tribute to the efficiency of the Rep product, which stands alike the acid test of time and hard service.

Spring brings many things of interest to everyone, but to the home builder and the house wife nothing of greater interest than the annual bedding sale at the Eastern Furniture Company, which makes a special fort each year to satisfy the demand in that line of holding one of its ed outstanding sales, which are planned far in advance, both in the selection and purchase of merchandise and in the extremely low prices which prevail. This year according to the annual custom the Eastern asked the bedding manufacturers for prices on lots of goods made up according to specifications of the company, and when the bids were opened it was found that the offer of Clarence and Arthur Day of the H. L. Day Sons manufacturers of the widely known Dayson bedding, who in addition to making the lowest bid on the merchandise to made according to Eastern specifications also closed out all remnant ticks and discontinued ticks to be made into mattresses at the Eastern's offer which means in this case a very low price to the company's tomers. All of this merchandise will bel placed on sale for the annual special selling proposition at low prices to build a bigger volume of business and to make new friends for the Eastern F'urniture Company.

Mr. Cahners, president of the Eastern Furniture Company, when asked concerning the report that a full car: load of bedding was to be shipped to the store, said that the story was correct and the order had been placed with a local concern in following out the Eastern's policy which is as far as possible to patronize local manufacturers thus encourage Maine industry and keep Maine money in the state for the benefit of Maine people. large section of the main froor has been reserved for this special showing of this unique line of bedding. The sale will also be remarkable not. only for the low prices at which these goods have been marked but also because in order to make new friends, the same generous credit will be extended as in all other lines, no cash being required.

Mail customers who have found through years of relations the high standing Eastern in business, the description of their goods will find it a convenience to purchase In this way with the assurance that 1f goods are not perfectly satisfactory when received may be returned. An offer by such a reliable company as the Eastern is bound to inspire confidence and results in a great ing in time and money for those ratrons of the company who are located at a distance from Pangor. Under the policy of the company responsibility for the goods does not end with their delivery but continues as long as the goods last. It is this policy which has built up the vast volume of business that has made the Eastern Furniture Company one of the leading concerns in its line in the Pine Tree state. CHAS.

Few artists have been able to satisfy an Indian. Mr. Fox had this adaptability, the red man admitting the "truth" of his paintings.

The goal of Mr. Fox's study least one point which he sought constantly to attain, was the correct rendition of sunlight. The success of his efforts in this direction was admitted by critics. As an advocate of socialism, Mr. Fox became known not only in Maine but throughout the country.
