LAWYER FEES IN HUBBARD CASE SLASHED Handing down a decree of fore closure to satisfy holders of $(30,- 000 worth of bonds of the Hubbard Mineral Springs company and two debtors, Circuit Judge 1. H. Mc Mahan, Tuesday also slashed into attorneys fees asked by attorneys involved. He declared in a nota tion attached to the decree that the attorneys' fees asked were based on property valued at $60, 000 when as a matter of fact he as serted a reasonable sale price of $15,000 would cover the property. The scale of attorneys' fees, he stated, was predicated on the theo ry that the mortgaged property would be reasonably worth the amount of the mortgage. ''It was never intended," he stated, "that In a case of this kind where tne mortgage Is $60,000 and the prop erty not more than $15,000 that the rule should apply." By his action he cut the trus tee's attorney's fee from $750 to $300 and the general attorneys' fees from $2,103 to $1,500. The total judgment granted in the de cree is $72,864.70. It is further de creed that In the sale of property after expenses are paid the first debtor to be paid is E. S. pperly in the sum of $112; the next Ed win S. Wolfer. $500, and the bal ance to the holders of the $60,000 in bonds. The legal title to the property is vested In the Lawyers Title & Trust company which holds the trust deed for the bondhold ers and the Hubbard Mineral Springs company, H. Peterson and R. P. Landis, defendants are all barred from any Interest in the property. The decree also provides that In any sale of the property under foreclosure the minimum payment on the property must be $10,000 In ca&h. Bondholders or a commit tee of bondholders may buy In and over and above the cash payment of $10,000 may pay bonds and In terest coupons In lieu of cash on the purchase price.

FELLED TREES BLOCK ROAD ON FINGER RIDGE With 60 or 75 large trees across the road about three miles above the Dilley place, residents of ficotts Mills and vicinity are wondering whether the upper end of tlie Crooked Finger ridge road will be opened in time for hunters to pene trate tills region before the season closes October 20. The trees were felled by order of the Silver Falls Timber company, it is stated, who take the stand that the road which lias not seen much use in recent years is a private thorough tare. Some time ago the company ap plied to the county court for per mission to close the road. The court did- not grant the petition, A few days later it was found that several trees had been thrown across the road. Ben Claggett, game warden went up the ridge and succeeded in opening up a passage way that would permit cars to get in. Later, workmen went to the scene and cut down nearly 70 trees over a dis tance of approximately half a mile, effectually closing the road. At tlie time of the second closing, it happened that two cars were in the timber. The occupants had a strenuous time in making their exit, the machines having been car ried and dragged around the debris. The district attorney's office is Investigating the matter, an effort being made to determine whether the road is a private one or whether it should be kept open for public use. The road was built many years ago and was used primarily in mov ing machinery into the mines which operated for a few years. It was not built for automobile traffic but cars can negotiate its steep grades during the summer and fall months.

HAWLEY PLANS FOR MONEY TAX LAW (Continued from page 1) into competition of commodities made under free labor conditions. If the state bar lnter-state traf ficking In prkon made goods, it Is more Important that foreign made goods, made under worse conditions, be prohibited from entry.

Regulation of narcotics Is the greatest humanitarian act of any government and the problem is one of the greatest cxiccrn to the fed eral, state and municipal govern ments. Congressman Hawley said. Derivatives In excess of legal re quirements are now being barred and it In upon these derivatives that "crime waves" are sustained. chiefly from the use of heroin, the most deadly ot all. Switzerland Is tlie greatest offender In the manu facture of these derivatives while England has expressed willingness to limit the production of opium In India.

BANKER SEES UPWARD TURN FOR BUSINESS Celveland, O. Signs of an up ward iurn oi DUfiiness have recent ly appeared, and the factors creat ing the upward turn should have tlie wisest cooperation the banker can provide, John G. Lonsdale, pres ident oi tne Mercantile Commerce Bank and Trust company of St. Louis and president of tlie Ameri can Banters' association, said Tues day. Some of the indicators of better business are the increased credit operations of banks this month, in creased purchases by tlie public, in creased employment in many fac tories, and accelerated speed of some factory wheels, lie said. But for the banker to cooperate he must encourage the farmer In jured by the drought, the manufac turer who finds costs high because of obsolete machinery, the property owner with buildings In need of re pair, the renter who wants to be In dependent of his landlord, and the merchant whose 6 tore needs Im provement before Increased profits are made. It should be the primary task of the banker to lend every encourage ment to activities of this nature, and to work out practical programs of support, the president said. Vet in this it is tlie bound en duty of the commercial banker to loans at the expense of banking 11 avoid the mistake of making capital quldity. Idle dollars are no more to be desired than idle men, but un wise credit extensions can do as much harm as good." Diversified production, he said, should be encouraged.
