He has announced for economy and while he hasn’t done much toward that end he seems well intentioned. There may be a con flict about the reduction of in come taxes; the présidait has suggested that taxes might be cut as much as ten percent and the Republican leaders (some of them) have spoken for a 20 percent cut. The smaller the cut the larger part of the war debt will be paid out of war profits. If the executive and the legis- lative branches of our govern- ment will forget politics for the next year there Is no reason why they should not get along very well and do some good for the nation. - Reproduction of the new re- ________ GOOD BYE, WESTON LEADER port cards for the Portland schools Clark Wood of the Weston Lead- shows that schools there are fol- ert whose name is probably better lowing the general trend in mark- known than that of any other Ing of grades.

That is through an exhaustive review of all deeds, wills, marriages, heirships and other documents by which the prop erty has been conveyed, mortgaged, leased or transmitted over a long period of time. The purchaser of land who protects himself with a Commonwealth Insured Title avoids this endless detail, knowing, too, that no flaw will exist in the title to cause loss.
