"France, will act like an honest man," the minister said, "balancing revenue and expenditures and paying her debts as far as humanly possible. Maintenance of the army comprises a large part of our expense and reduction of the military establishment is consistent with national and societal needs. The system demonstrating France's desire for peace and the liberation of the utmost possible number of young men for industry and agriculture."
"That," Paintkee said, "would be France's answer to those who charge her with militarism and debt defaulting. France," he said, "intends to prove to the world that she is not a militaristic nation."
"The army will be entirely reorganized. Service will be reduced to one year, with a coincident reduction in the number of effects, suppressed." The army will now have many artillery units, and the industrialization of army services."
"The foregoing are the government's aims which will be set forth in the military service bill when parliament convenes. The economies in the army budget are not the result of improvisations, which might not work. I have examined the problem for months and has shown to me creating an immediate and immense saying in line with the general government policy.
Electrical Shovel Used for Digging Up Fossils
Cleveland, Ohio, Oct. 6. "The back-bailing tail of the paleontologist has been supplanted here by a fossil-hunting electric shovel in a suburb of this city, where geological information is being dug out," said Terry Beaudry, an unearthed from rock and clay, as well as fossiled fibres.
The use of the electric shovel for this purpose is being viewed with particular interest here, because the rapid expansion of the city means that these areas in a few years will be lost to the paleontologist to make way for sub-基底s to large buildings.

Wager Placed on Sun Lost by Single "Weep"
An aftermath to our recently departed rainy season was observed a "Brick's" yesterday afternoon.
A group of boys sent at a table more vigorously lacrosse the probability of more rain. One boy held out against the rest that there would be more rain that afternoon. Finally after many arguments a two-bit bet was made by the disentending student that it would not rain any more that night. The first bid seemed to favor him and he reclined comfortably in his chair speculating the buying power of the almost two-bits.
Suddenly one of the boys hurried went to the door. After peering out a moment he excitedly called to the boys at the table. Crowding about the door they found that a few rain-drops had just fallen on the sidewalk. One small wayward cloud had decided to "weep" a little and it picked a only a few feet square in the front of "Brick" so that to perform it

Democrats Favor Senator Simmon's Tax Reduction Bill
New Resolution Expected to Provide General Cut for All Incomes
Washington, Oct. 6—Democratic talk about a $200,000,000 tax cut this year over the heads of President Coolidge and Secretary Mellon is developing into a systemized drive of unexpected proportions.
Democrats are unanimous upon an issue, namely, that the treasury surplus should be used immediately to lower all taxes instead of being permitted to accumulate until 1928, presidential year.
The United Press was informed today that Senator Simmons, ranking Democratic member of the senate finance committee, is now drawing a tie with former Senate leader and the day congress reconvenes. Minority leaders have agreed to force the resolution to a vote, and it appears the biggest light of the coming session will be one of the candidates. It has not yet been determined just what features the resolution will contain, but those back of the movement want it to provide a general and virtually equal reduction upon large and small income along the way.
Democrats generally manifest more enthusiasm over the issue than in any development of recent months. While they do not hold sufficient strength in either house to adopt the reduction, a unified Democratic force, with addition of a few Republican votes, will make the vote exceedingly close. Every Democratic leader returning to town the last fortnight has emphasized the necessity for reducing taxes with accord with the Simmons plan. The latest is Senator Bernie Sanders, the eastern banker who said business interests are getting solidly behind the Simmons plan.
But the fact that Democrats are unanimous on the movement and intend to fight to a conclusion, indicates to political observers that it will require more attention than has been given it thus far.

Progress of Race Is Unprecedented, Asserts Blackman
Associate Pastor Speaks of Inventions Which Are Replacing Ideals
"The human race has made unprecedented progress during the last century, but it is itging at a dear price. In 1974 Mr. Earl Blackman, associate pastor of the Lincoln Christian church of Kansas City, speaking at the Y. M. C. A. forum at Myers Hall last night, told his talk was "What 'prior Progress' is."
"The progress we have made in mechanical devices and inventions has never before been equalled in the history of the race, but it has been made at the tremendous sacrifice of many cherished institutions," he asserted. "Religious ideals and tangle ties have less importance in our daily lives than in the technical mechanical inventions, such as the automobile and the moving picture, and because of countless clubs, lodges and other social organizations."
"Then, too, in our industries we are paying a dear price for the material progress we are making. Workers in our large fabricators perform the same machine tasks year in and year out, but they are crushed. They lose their individuality and develop into automations because of the very nature of their daily grind. In there any wonder that labor organizations are demanding shorter days and shorter weeks employers in our industrial centers."
Rev. Blackman said the economic and social conditions which exist are a challenge to religious, civic and social organizations that have as an ideal the uplifting of humanity. No single man, he said, can bring about a reform, but instead it will take the combined efforts of all.
"The time is ripe," he declared, "for the kind of thinking uphole by such student organizations as the student generation must solve the problem."
Reverend Blackman told the audience that he spent two weeks this summer working with Sinclair Lewis, the famous novelist. He said that the writer was one of the greatest Christians he had ever seen.
"Sincerely Lewis has an amuletpe de thirst for truth, and he is spending his life debating for faces and no longer for words." But but is necessary for "progress."
Reverend Blackman, better known in this section of the country as "The Fighting Parson," was formerly an官阶 chaplain of the American Legion. He served overseas during the war as a chaplain.
Short devotional exercises were held just before the talk. The speaker was introduced by Harold Smith, president of the Y. M. C. A.
Mine Fatalities Continue
Explosions Can Be Prevented by Rock Dusting
"The large number of coal mine explosions which take place in this country can be done away with by a simple process of rock dicing," says Dominence Gagliardo of the economics department.
In 1922, there were 265 miners filled in nine major explosions. In 1923, 128 miners built their own nine major explosions, and 237 lives were buried in this way, and up to Sept. 1 of this year, 248 miners have their lives in their矿井 mine excavations.
The majority of explosions can be prevented by the simple and inexpensive process of starting mines with nowelded rock.
"The public is show to act," Gauri hardo declares, "More effective," he says, "in action such as that taken by the associated companies dealing in compensation insurance." After Oct. 1, 1928 those companies would not inquire into their own firm's business which is gaseous or dusty, or which has not been rock duced.
