MEMPHIS, Tenn, June 27.-This
city has solved the problem of the
bachelor and the baby. It's the SIM
plest thing in the world.
Il Memphis just makes the bachelors
support the babies.
Il The bachelors are taxed and the
money is turned over to a Bachelors
Baby Club, to maintain summer
| hospital for sick babies and their
mothers, and to provide milk and
otherwise assist the babies during the
hot summer months.
| The amount of the tax is deter
mined by the Income, eligibility and
general attractiveness of said bach
elor, due deductions being made for
overweight, badness, loss of one eye,
and general disposition" The usual
tax assessed, however, is IS. And
here's the way it's collected:
| The law provides that mo unmar-

years shall be allowed on the streets
Of Memphis after 9 o'clock p. M, or
to court. visit or accompany an I'M
married woman to any place of
amusement" unless he has paid the
tax.
He must present bachelors license
on demand of any unmarried woman,
married man or police officer. If he
can't, or won't, he's liable to a fine of
S. to $50.
Its all nonsense" said some Of
the surly ones at first. "They can't
collect the tax, either" But Jim
Rawlings and ]. A. Reichman, orig
inators of the idea, showed them.
