10 PGT. COST CUT ORDERED BY LAVAL Heavy Taxation on Major Incomes Also Decreed. - Objectors Protest. By the Associated Preéss. PARIS, July 17—A 10 per cent slash in government expenditures and heavy taxation on big incomes were ordered today in 28 decree laws, pro- mulgated by Premier Plerre Laval in an effort to balance the budget. Government employes and war vet- erans immediately threatened to pro- test, the latter considering a monster demonstration in the Bols de Boulogne Friday or Saturday. Estimates of the economies and new revenues varied, but the government indicated that it expected to slice at least 10,000,000,000 francs from the 1938 deficit of 11,000,000,000 francs. Profits from war industries and un~ registered securities were taxed heavily, as were big incomes. Pro- visions were made for a compensating cut in the cost of living. The price of coal was reduced from B to 15 per cent. Bread prices were reduced 10 centimes a kilogram, or roughly three-tenths of a cent a pound, making the price five cents a pound. Unilons of functionaries had hinted at the possibility of demonstrations and perhaps strikes before the decrees were announced. Salaries above 10,- 000 francs a year were cut 10 per cent. Lower salaries were reduced 3 to 5 per cent. Foreigners are exempted from the 10 per cent reduction in interest on the securities they hold. Easy money is sought by abolishing the maturity clauses in loan agree- ments, enabling debtors to repay their obligations whenever they get better terms elsewhere. Proprietors who lose through the 10 per cent reduction in house rents are to be compensated by an arbitrary 10 per cent reduction in interest on mort- gages on the affected buildings. DR. J.

Salmon Industry’s End Predicted in P.W.A.Power Dams Culkin Holds Ladders and Elevators Can’t Save Fish. By the Associated Press. Representative Culkin, Republican, of New York, asserted yesterday that fish ladders and elevators over the hige P. W. A. power dams on the Columbia River—projected by Secre- tary Ickes—could not save the $300,- 000,000 salmon industry. 1 “Ten years will see the end of the salmon industry on the West Coast because of the Bonneville and Grand Coulee Dams, despite the unique ladders and elevators,” Culkin told re- porters, “The fish who are intelligeni enough to push buttons for the Grand Coulee elevators 500 feet high or those energetic and courageous enough to walk up the ladders will do like their ancestors did—die after spawn- ing on the upper reaches of the Co- lumbia. “Their offspring, being young and uneducated don’t know how to push the elevator buttons or climb down the ladders. 8o, they will perish in the giant Hydro-electric turbines as they seek their way to the sea. “Ten years and the great Pacific _ Coast salmon will be as extinct as the dodo.” Culkin, who is leading a fight in the House against administration leg- islation to legalize some 30 P. W. A. projects under Secretary ickes, said the Bonneville Dam fish ladders ‘would cost $3,500,000 and the Grand Coulee’s elevators and ladders, $10,- 000,000.
