Reduction of the public debt also means a reduction in interest charges. The reduction last year alone means $40,000,000 less. If the nation centered its attention more on tax changes there would be less agi- tation about the latter and more about the former. The present debt amounts to In 1917, when the public debt was only $,908,635,- 224—instead of $18,036,352,451.81— the national debt was consldered o ——— i‘hlgh at $18.33 per capita.

SCHOOL PROGRESS IN PLAINVILLE Decision to use the new high school building in Plainville for a junior high school as well as a senior high is something of a novelty, yet a logical development /in a town anxious to progrees edu- cationally.
