By the Associated Press Failure of the Midwestern and Northwestern agricultural regions to fully recover from the depression of 1920 and 1921 was traced today in an address by Frank W. Mondeil, War Finance _Corporation member and former Republican House leader, to the past policy of Congress in main- taining high surtax rates under peace- time conditions.

It was Mr. Mondell's second speech of a tour through the Midwest and was made before the convention of the South Dakota Bankers' Association. In it he urged the bankers to interest their communities in the importance to the individuals thereln of the federal taxation policy and told them that if they earnestly desired to have scientifically drawn tax rates, they must so inform their Senators and Representatives in Congress. The speaker reviewed many’phases of the tax question and asserted that in many instances competitive busi- ness had suffered for the reason that available funds were being employed THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, 100 Bootleggers Quit on Pleas of Salvation Lassies By the Assoclated Press.
