NEW YORK FAILS TO IMPRESS GOLD MINER FROM CANADA WILDS

NEW YORK, March 21.—Fred M. Wells, Vermont farmboy who ran away from home to become a wealthy gold miner in the Caribou country in British Columbia, left New Yorkers thoroughly disillusioned today. He didn’t seem to know the right answers to the usual questions. “What do you think of our skyline?” he was asked. "Are you trying to impress me?” he snorted in reply. “Do you intend to visit Wall street?” “What for? Do you think I believe that stuff about it being the money heart of the nation?” There was an awkward silence broken by the prospector. "I don't think so much of your cops,” he said. “I walked over to one of 'em and asked him the name of a building—you see, I was interested in the marble work in the corridors. ‘I don’t know what it's called.’ he tells me. So I said, ‘Wait here and 1 11 find out and let you know'.” RESERVE OFFICERS TO HEAR COL.

LA FOLLETTE TO CONTINUE FIGHT FOR HIGH TAXES Schedule With 77 Per Cent Levy on $1,000,000 Is Aim of Senator. By f nilrd Prm* WASHINGTON. March 21.—De- ! seated in the senate finance com- ! mittee. Senator Robert M. La Fol- ; lette (Rep., Wis.). said today he ' would carry to the floor of the senate his fight to impose higher surtaxes and estate taxes. Senator La Follette said he would not attempt to get committee approval of his estate tax plan. His proposed amendment to the revenue bill which would increase maximum surtax rates to 77 per cent on incomes in execss of $1,000,000. was defeated in the com- | mittee, thirteen to five. The United Press learned that : the vote on the La Follette amendment. taken in secret executive session yesterday, was as follows: Result of Voting Opposed—King. George. Barkley,: Gore. Lonergan, Byrd, McAdoo, I Reed. Keyes. Metcalf. Hastings, j | Walcott and Harrison. For the Amendment Connally, j Costigan, Clark, Couzens, La Follette. The progressive Republican from Wisconsin is one of a group of i liberal senators who think that | extraordinary expenditures by the federal government for relief and public works must be continued for a long time and consider increased j tax revenues as essential to the maintenance of government credit. Although drastic by comparison I with the present income tax rates, which are altered only slightly by the tax bill that has been passed by the house and is now before the senate committee. Senator La Follette's proposed rates are moderate, compared to the income assessments of Great Britain. Rates Start at 6 Per Cent Senator La Follette’s rates start with a normal tax of 6 per cent on net incomes up to $4,000. allowing the existing exemptions of $2,500 for a married person and SI,OOO for a single person. Our present normal j tax. as well as that in the house bill, i is 4 per cent. The British tax is j 12 ’*2 per cent, with S6OO as the exemption for a married person. The La Follette schedule runs up i to 77 per cent on incomes in excess | jof $1,000,000. as compared to our j present tax of -55 per cent and the J j house bill tax of 59 per cent, j Rates in the house bill are higher | on incomes in excess of $20,000, but slightly lower on incomes of less I than that. Would Add $185,000,000 There is practically no difference in the amount of income tax revenue to be expected from the present law and the house bill. But the I treasury, which has been trying to | discourage proposals for higher in- ; come taxes, has estimated that, the La Follette rates would add about ; $185,000,000. Later Senator La Follette will proj pose higher taxes on inheritances. ! going up to 60 per cent in the I upper brackets, and yielding SIOO,000.000 additional. The La Follette schedule, providing a normal tax ot 6 per cent, calls for the following surtaxes on income in excess of that amount. Income. Pet. Income.

SUSPEND RULES FOR VOTING REGISTRATION House Allotting Changed to Aid Officers in Work. Suspension of the rule allotting houses with odd numbers to Republican deputy registration officers and even numbered houses to Democratic deputy registration officers was ordered today by Glenn B. Ralston, county clerk in charge of j Marion county voters’ registration, in an effort to speed up the process. “Deputy registration officers are paid 5 cents for each registration they obtain in the house-to-house canvass, but are naturally discouraged when they get no results after j calling four or five times at the same house.” Mr. Ralston explained. It is hoped that with the suspension of the allotment rule, officers will be given more incentive to keep j up their efforts. NEW OFFICERS ELECTED BY PERFECT CIRCLE CO. C. N.
