Three-Point Program To
Lift Burden From Home
Owner Submitted At
Building-Loan Convention.
FRENCH LICK, Ind.. Sept. 8. (JFj
Abolition of the property tax In Its
present form led a list of recommend
ations made today to the United
States Building and Loan league hy
Its committee on home taxation,
The report wai submitted at the
eloalng session of the league's 40th
annual convention which has been
devoted largely to discussion of the
recently enacted federal home loan
bank law.
The committee on home taxation
suggested that building and loan as
sociation! unite In behalf of a three-
point program to lift "the unjuit
burden of taxation on the American
home owner, which Is the greatest
deterrent to home ownership."
For Combined Tax Bill.
The report proposed: Abolition of
the general property tax, abolition of
the special assessment plan, and
combination of the multitude of
taxes Into one tax bill, scientifically
applied and divided among the vari
ous general and special political, edu
cational, service and social activities
The reserve credits and banking
relations committee of the league
recommended the federal incorpora.
tlon of building and loan associa
tions.
Senator James E. Watson of In
diana foresees a day when the sec.
ond mortgage will be a thing of the
past as a result of the operations of
federal home loan nanus.
Second Mortgage Going.
The senator told the league last
night that the primary purpose
th i.w creating: the banks was
save homes already partly purchased
and the secondary one was to ouua
new homes.
"If this law works as we think it
wlU," the Republican leader predict
ed, "the second mortgsge will soon
become a thing of the past and that
spectre will no longer confront tne
man who desires either to buy or to
build a home
"It will save thousands of homes
In America; It will build yet others
to come, and thus add to the safety
and stability of our institutions.
Referring to the Inability of build
ing and loan associations to resuis.
count the mortgages they held. Sena
tor Watson said, "We have never had
sufficiently free capital In this coun
try to finance on a proper scale
home-building and home-owning.'
Building Starts.
An Increase on home-bulldlng and
a marked recovery in the automobile
Industry are at hand, the convention
was told by Dr. O. O. Hardy of the
Brookings Institute, Washington,
C.
Dr. Hardy saw encouragement
the rising prices of stocks and bonds,
saying these "always improve
after a crisis."
PEACnOlT
SPRAY NEEDED
"Peach and apricot trea should b
prayed at thla tlm with Bordeaux
mixture for the control or might,"
ays L. P. Wilcox, county agent. "This
la a very Important apray and should
be applied Just as soon as the crop
U off and before the fall rains be
gin."
Peach blight la a fungus disease
found on all peach and apricot trees,
causing a dleback of young shoots
frut buds to be killed and gum caJc
ers to appear on wood and fruit tis
sues. Most of the red spotting on
the frut of the apricot Is caused by
this disease.
Bordeaux mixture, 4-4-50, is th
material to use and spraying should
be thorough, giving the tree trunk
and all branches a liberal covering.
If further information is desired con

Germany To Arm
Anyway, Is Word
BERLIN, Sept. 6-(AP) General
Kurt von Schleicher, who startled
Europe recently by asserting that
Germany la not granted equality of
arms she will arm anyway, told the
press today that he meant what he
said. The minister of defense declared
In an Interview at Koenlgsberg that
Germany "under all circumstances
will do what Is necessary for her de
fense,"

background, and the remainder of the
display will Include pictures of Lake
o' the Woods. Diamond Lake, Rogue
river, Llthla Park, etc.; together with
pictures of fishing, hunting and wild
life of Jackson county and southern
Oregon.
Many other Oregon counties will'
feature displays of their products and
attractions during the Legion conven
tion in Portland, but th Jackson
county display In the Hotel Benson
will undoubtedly be one of tlw out
standing exhibits, principally on ac
count of the favorable location of the
exhibit, as well as on account of the
fine co-operation received by the com
mittee In arranging material for the
event. The Benson will be the head
quarters hotel for the 40 et 8, fun
order of the Legion, and thousands of
eastern and mid-western delegstes
and visitors will pass through the
lobby -each day. where they will be
given samples of the various products
on display, as well as descriptive lit
erature of southern Oregon.
A group of Medford and Ashland
, Legionnaires and members of the wo
men's auxiliary w,;l be on hand at
the Jackson county booth to give out
the products and tell visitors of the
advantages of southern Oregon, and
according to present Indications, a
great deal of favorable publicity
should accrue to the southern Oregon
district as a result of this activity.
