HOSPITALS HELD
In VIOLATION
Commissioners cabelI Discovers That
Tax Free Liquid Privilege Has
Been Abused

The strange fact that hospitals all
over the country have been violating
the internal revenue laws and are in
for heavy penalties unless relieved by
special act of congress become known
today Under the law hospitals can
withdraw from bond alcohol and use
it for preserving specimens free of
tax if it is denatured. Revenue Com
missioner Cabell found 509,000,000
gallons year was being withdrawn.
He got suspicious and his agents went
to work nosing into the fact. Then 1t
was found that many of the hospitals
were using the tax-free alcohol not
for miscellaneous hospital purposes.

cohol. The next step will be to order
that back taxes for fifteen months.
plus penalty equal to the tax to be
paid by the hospitals. This probably
means millions in taxes and penalties.
1t is known that Mercy hospital in
Des Moines was one of those investi-
gated. No attempt was made to con-
ceal the fact that considerable part
of the tax-free alcohol had been used
and the result is that Mercy hospital
will have to pay a stiff price to Uncle
Sam unless congress passes relief
act
Senator Cummins and Senator
Hitchcock of Omaha, both of. whom
of hnc 10 lie
about it, took the matter up together
today.
Omaha hospitals are much concern
ed over the situation and are in for big
sums in taxes and penalties unless
relieved The two senators will work
together TO get relief legislation and
probably liberation of existing laws
to help the hospitals out in the flu
ture.

That he favored the purchase by the city of the State Fair grounds, if that matter was given to the commission in the proper way, was the statement Of President Culpepper Exum of the board of city commissioners yesterday. The statement Sunday of Otto Marx that the State Fair grounds could be secured has attracted favorable attention not only in the city hall bue elsewhere in the city It is expected that this will be done in addition to the city buying the Ensley park, which will be confirmed today

At 53O o'clock yesterday afternoon, Judge J. P. Stiles of the propate court of Jefferson county finished the investigation of the list of referendum names submit ted last Thursday for certl1cation, and will submit the list to the city commls- siohers this morning with his official in- dorsement
 The petition for referendum was the result of the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company contract executed several weeks ago by the city comms- sioners. When first presented the petition had 152S names, and since that time a considerable number of additional names have been secured, in the fear that the list submitted might not be sufficient by reason of dsqualifcatilons. However, the list was amply sufficient, and as soon as Judge Stiles reached the number required he quit the count and will certify to the qualifications of those signing the list to the commissioners this morning.
 The 10 year contract between the city and the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company, after considerable dis eussion, was signed by Commissioners Exum and Weatherly, Commissioner Lane voting against it.
 Since the contract was adopted many mass meetings have been held in the city and the result has been the preparing of the petition, requesting that an elec- tion be ordered by the city commissioners
