Rumors Greatly Exauqerated.

The rumor that grave hazing has been carried on recently at the Com necticut Agricultural college at Storrs proved to be considerably exaggerated. President c. L. Beach of the college stated Monday evening that three boys had been temporarily suspended for a breach of discipline and had left Storrs for their homes. The hazing, as far as it went, was confined to one nights antics among a number of the students who have all practically admitted con- nection with the trif1ing episode. The suspended boys will be allowed to re- turn to college if they comply with certain rules of discipline.

BIDS ON PANAMA BONDS
 WILL SOON BE CALLED FOR.
Decision in Corporation Tax Case Will
 Expedite Matters.

Washington, March 13.-The cor- poration tax decision will hasten the impending issue of Panama bonds. It was one of the things Secretary Mac Veagh has been waiting for. Had the case gone against the government, bonds would have been issued to meet the refunds to the corporations. It seems likely that Secretary Mac Veagh's call for bids on the new se- curities will announce the amount of the issue at $50,000,00O, and it is be- ing predicted that the call for bids will go out before April 1.
 Bonds Free from Taxation.
 Some treasury officials thnk the price of the new securities will be higher than is expected. Under the law they cannot be issued at less than par As they will be absolutely free from all kinds of taxation, the bonds will be the highest revenue producers the government has. The fours of 1925 net only 2.68 per cent. The new threes could be marketed at figure as high as 114.24 and still pay 2.5 net. That, however, is thought unlikely. If mar keted at 106.78. they would bring 2.75 and even as low as 163 they would pay 2.88 net, higher rate of interest than is now paid by any other government bond. The net price of the present three, which have the circulation priv iIege attached. is more than 102.
 Small Investors to Have First Show.
 It is the present plan of the treasury department to give first consideration to the small investors in making the issue. Definite official announcement may be expected soon.

 According to the present plan, about two hundred militia officers will be sent southward at a time, and the period of instruction will be about two weeks each.
