STATE TAX LAW
Will BE STUDIED
MANUFAcTUReRs OF MICHIGAN
ARE PROMPTED TO ACT BY
NEW EXCESS
PLAN.

AS the result Of a number Of con-
fercucos among leading manufacturers
Of tht state bearing upon the proposed
corporate excess plan recommended by
the tax inquiry commission of 1911. an
organization has been effected To make
n study of the taxation system OF
Michigan and adjoining states. The
practical purpose of this will be to de-
tcrmlne whether the present system OF
state taxation is defective and if IL be
found defective to inquire into the ef-
Hcacy of the proposed tax system. II
It be not found satisfactory such
amendments as the study suggests will
be presented for consideration.
The executive committee of the man.
uncturers conference is composed OF
Henry b. JOY. president of the Pack
ard Motor Car Co. chairman: Franz,
q. Ryan, president Of Parke, Davis &
Co.: Charles II. Clifford. vice president
and treasurer Of the American Blower
Co.; William b. Cady, representing
print paper interests, and John A
Russell, assistant to the president
Home Telephone Co.
The committee has retained a law
committee as its counsel, composed or
Cludus b. Grant, formerly chief JUS
tcc of the supreme court; James O.
Muffin, lately Wayne county circuit
Judge and John II. Gon. Under the dl-
rccticn Of the last named an examina-
ton Of the subject of taxation as ar
fcct'ng Michigan industrial and COM
mrocial interests and the state revenue
win be made and the results embodied
IN q report. which viii be made public
IN due season.
The inquiry is undertaken neither in
support Of nor antagonistic to the cor
porate excess tax proposal, but in al
non-partisan spirit
The results of the inquiry probably
will bc laid before the legislature at
its next meeting. suecial or general
session
The expenses Of the committee are
being contributed by the leading man
urlcuurers. Speaking of the scope and
purpose Of the work, Chairman Henry
r. JOY says:
"Thc work Is valuable one only
# 10 is done right. If well done it is
not only valuable naw, but for all time
20 come. It viii not be work i'm the
interest Of any class or any set Of spe-
cial interests. 1t will, we hope, pro-
duco result intended to stop all bick-
cring and controversy as TO the facts
set forth and should supply the people |
Of this state, through their legislature !
and public officials, with an illuminat- |
ms exposition OF tax laws, both wise
and unwisc, so that a decision may be |
arrived at from uncontrovcrtcd facts. |
The object will be avoid the faint Of
possible distortion and discoloration Of
the facts inevitably incident to a mere
political inquiry into such matter"

AS TO SUDDEN GRAY HAIR.


Steida, a German scientist, with the
thoroughness Of his race after long
study on the subject, disregarding all
popular stories and beliefs, boldly de-
clarcs that there is no such thing as
ones hair turning white i'm single
might. He takes special delight i'm
brushing aside the tales that the hair
.of Marie Antoinctte turned white the
night before her execution. and that
the terrors of the ST. Bartholomew
massacres whitened the hair of Henry
.of Navarro. He doubts the sudden
loss Of hair pigment i'm the case Of
Marie Antoinotte, stating that while
She was certainly gray at the time of
her execution, she was also gray at the
time Of the execution of her husband,
Louis XVI, nine months before.
The Journal of the American Medi-
cal association sets out Steida's claim
that when the hair turns white under
ordinary conditions II does SO in one of
two ways Either the pigmented
hairs, or less commonly, pigment pro-
duction stops I'm a growing hair and
the colorless portion gradually replaces
the darker outer segment. AS the
growing of a new crop of hair in n sim
gle night is beyond the possibilities
Of even the Seven Sutherland Sisters,
Steida must needs discredt all tales
of miraculous transformation.

ABOUT BATS.
Mammals That Possess the Power of
True Flight.

Mammals That Possess the Power of
True Flight.
An article i'm The News some days
ago told that the bats that lodge in
the caves of southern Indiana have
already gone into winter quarters. The
information I'm that article was inter-
esting. but much more might have
been said. The bat most common i'm
the United States is the little brown
bat" about three inches long" with a
spread of wings of nine inches, fol-
lowing which come the red bat" the
"brown bat" three to four inches long.
with spread of wings twelve inches,
the "hoary bat" fourteen inches across
the wings, the "slver haired bat,
which migrates to the south i'm win
ter. and the Large cared bat" of the
Pacific coast. The bat differs from
other mammals I'm possessing the pow
er of true fight. They are true mann
mails, for the reason that they suckle
their young.
To the great vampire bat of South
America, abundant in the valley Of the
Amazon. has been given a character
that later naturalsts say is unde-
served. II is seven inches in length
and twenty eight inches in expanse Of
wings. When viewed from the front
its hideous face with black glistening
eyes, leathery ears standing upright
grinning teeth and spear pointed nose
give it a most diabolical appearance
Yet this is one of the most harmless
of bats, feeding almost exclusively o"
insects and wild fruits.
The true blood sucking vampire, an
other South American species, is only
about three inches long 1t attacks
man. also horses. cattle and other
warm -blooded animals, settling down
upon them when asleep, cutting the
skin with sharp teeth and sucking the
blood that flows The "nose-lcaf BAT
of southern California and Mexico
though allied TO the vampires, is
fruit cater. Several species of fruit
eating bats are found in southern Asia
IN islands Of the Pacific. in Papua,
Australia, Madagascar and parts OF
Africa. Some of these are extremely
large. especially the kalong or FOX
bat" of Java and adjacent islands, Its
body being fifteen inches long and It's
spread of wings four feet eight inches
The voracity Of the fruit bats Is
shown by the fact according to natur-
alists. that species weighing but one
ounce, ate in twenty-four hours two
ounces of bananas. They are hunted
by the Malays for their flesh. which Is
