lul nlKht what fi'ili'riil government
has acconipllnhril In decreasing Int
el mill the public debt and made a
plea for action alniiK similar lines
by I hn stales, munclpnllllns and
counties.
The executive mild tho federal
government In "diligently seeking to
prove Itself a helpful example" In
removing what he characterised m
th8 menace of mounting . taxns and
growing public Indebtedness, bui
clilod tlint this vm not alone a fed
ml problem. Hint "the Improved
order must come Into the units of

trxtUn program far tax revision Ju
the coining year. He did suy, how
ever,, that the tedond government
' was working under a program which
"Involvet extinguishing n half bil
lion of the (public) debt each "year"
and aliened that the paymonta
which the Brltlah government will
make 'under the British-American
debt aattlement "will corresponding
ly relieve the burden upon American
tixpayen." ' .
The proaldent declared no other
coimtry In the world hai boon ablo
to make such a record In public debt
reduction as had the t'nltod Btates.
Pointing to ft reduction of more than
one half In federal tnxca during the
past two years as comparod with the
war load peak In 1B20, he declared
this was the "record of buslneaa ad
ministration to which tho party now
In control of the administration feels
justified In retorting with no small
measure of satisfaction."
Settlement Held NotaMo
The British debt settlement,, tho
executive went on. has boon' "ao
elalmod all over tho world as 'one of
the most notable and successful fis
cal accomplishments evor recorded."
He added that aside from reducing
the burden of American taxpayers,
, the settlement had been one of the
"most rssssurlng events- since the
armistice,'.' eontlng kt It did at a
time ot "widespread uncertainty and
misgiving throughout the world of
business everywhere." .
To the budget bureau Harding at
tributed much of tho credit for get
ting government , 'expenditures
back to something like normal. Un
der this plan, he declared, tho admin
istration has been able to "awaken
a spirit ot economy and efficiency In
tho public service."
j Mounting Cost Hnltt'd
"We have' Introduced business
methods .In government,"' he added,
"and .instead' of operating blindly
and 'to' suit'. individual departments
whloh have never visualised the gov
ernment as a whole, and fnlt no con
cern about the raising of funds, we
are aorutlnlslng, Justifying,' coordi
nating, arid not only halting mount'
' Ins cont.i but making long strides In
reducing the cost ofgovornmcnt ac
tivities, - ' ..''V-V;,
"Perhaps -the budfrnt eytem would
not accomplish so muoh for taxing
' nnd spending divisions smaller than
the state, W a resolute commitment
to strike at all exlravaganco and ex
pend public funds aa one would tor
hlmsolt In his personal and business
affairs will accomplish wontlors."

vantages in Building
Lakeview Highway
M. F, Hutto, advocate ot the rout
ing ot the Klamath . Falla-Lakevlew
highway by way of Sprague river,
oTor the most westerly or so-called
Squaw Flat routo, tas the chief
j speaker at tho chnmber of commerce
forum today.
While seven miles longer than the
Bonanza and Lnngoll Valley route,
Hutto argued that tho. longer rond
would scrve a rich territory that
needed roads, while Langell Valley
would be well served with a highway
connecting with Klamath Falls when
tho Poe Valley market road Is done'.
It would take S418.000 to b'llld
to the Lake county line over the
Langell Valley route, he snld, and
825.000 less for the Squaw Flat
road. ;
Lake county expocts the road to
follow the Sprague River route, he
said, for work on the highway In
Lake county Is being done north ot
the point where the Langell Valley
route would connect In Lake coun
ty, v
He declared that the Squaw Flat
road could be built, and a road from
Dairy to Bonama built, serving the
Interests ot all contending parties, at
a saving over the cost of the Lan
gell Valley road, and that the
Sprague River road would be the
best winter road.
After Hutto's address Secretnry
Stevenson said that the' chamber's
sland so far had been neutral.- Real
ising the Importance ot a connecting
rond with Lnke county over some
route, the directors bed gotten the
(highway commission to come here
Inst fall to Investigate but had tak
en no partisan stand.
"If you were to listen, as some
of us have, to H. J. Tlchnor, or some
othor Langell Vnlloy supporter," sold
Stevenson, "you would find him as
earnest and advocate of his routs
as Hutto is ot the one he has Just
discussed."
The chamber so far had taken tho
view that the choice was one to be
decided by the highway commission,
upon an engineering basis.
R, E. Strahorn, railway builder,
spoke briefly on the Importance ot
highways north of the Strahorn rail
was terminus at Sprague Rlvor, to
open up connections with Silver Lake
nnd other producing valleys.
