"There is an impression widely
prevalent among Americans. that
'Europe has been a purchaser only
of our mw materials. bllt even a cas-

and agricultural products.
"Eur e will. in the nature of
things. regain a portion of her for-
mer trade in neutral markets as soon
as industry becomes reconstructed in
the nations of that Continent.
“Europe is steadily growing into
a better condition. The Russian ex-
periment with Communism is still
slowly working out; its disastrous
‘ course, but in practically all other

At Last! At Last!’
A Taxless Town
PORT ALLEN. in. June 25
(AP).——-"Tho taxless town" is
the slogan adopted by this junc-
tion point.
Across the Mississippi river
from Baton Rouge the state cup-
ital. Port Allen. with a popula-
tion of “not less than 500" will
have city lighting. water, sewer-
age. fire and police protection
without having to pay taxes for
it all.
By virtuo of a rt-eentty award-
ed contract for a ferry franchise
between its river front and that
of Baton Rouge. Port Allen will
receive an annual revenue which
it is estimated will assure per-
petual freedom from the tax
bogey.
