Mellon plan for tax reduction for next year is being, put in shape for consideration by congress. Mellon, says that we can cut so much from our tax burden and no more and if anybody ought to know, he's the man. Now We'll have ft chance to see how effective Coolidge can be in getting legislation he favors through the house and senate, it's going to havo a big effect on the rest of this administration. .;: .', ; Itefusal of Coolidgu to reappoint licit Hancy to the shipping board is a very natural action for the' president. The appointees of an executive are of great importance in tho official family and being surrounded with workers who are laigely in sympathy with the president is as necessary to an administration as a majority in congress. Coolidge is getting rid of a thorn as anyone else would do under similar circumstances. Now Ilaney will be free to carry on his fight against the president's shipping policy in any way ho sees fit. Many democrats believe he'll become a senatorial candidate and they look upon him as a very strong man if such should be his choice. One thing is cer tain, the democrats are going lii make every effort to pick an outstanding entry, hoping as they do for Stan field's nomination in the. opposition ranks. - They say they can beat Stanfield but. the man to lead them in a victory parade hasn't been agreed upon. .; I.OCAKNO AND RUSSIA. Moscow's reaction to the Locarno security pacts was to describe them as i)i Kurupcan bloc against Russia. They are a bloc, but hot in Die sense Russia sees liiein. The nations or Kurope will not .send their armies against Soviet Russia nor conduct economic warfare against the Russians. The Locarno blue is moral. It has deprived Moscow of what vague hopes it bad of alliance wilh Germany against the other European powers. Gei many won't fight with the Russian government and alone, Moscow has consistently shown an unwillingness lo challenge Kurope. Through Locarno also Soviet Russia is put to a test before the world. In giving Kurope greater economic sta bility it tiff oids a more accurate measure' for economic con ditions in Russia. Then also it permits a closer compari son between the new demon. icy of Kurope and the minority dictatoi'ship in Moscow as measured in what each has ac complished for the well-being of their respective people. If Russia is lo appear at nil favaroble in this competition wilh the ivst of Kmope it will he because the Moscow gov ernment is no lunger communistic. its eighth year the soviet government, is still stroiifily entrenched, but 'one rea son for that is that it has department from "war commun ism." I-enin sanctioned the restoration of internal private trade. Money has been restored. Tuxes are again being levied, although collected with difficulty. WANTED .
