assessed her at $4,000, which is the
tax on sI,OOO0OO. She fought the tax,
hut the courts yesterday decided
against her. She has taken an appeal,
which will be heard on Monday next.
Sir Alfred Cripps appeared for Mrs.
Drummond. and Sir John Simon, the
Solicitor General. for the crown. Sir
Alfred argued that the Field trustees
under the will had discretionary power.
and. although the payments were made
in England, this did not render the
guardian OF the children, Mrs. Drum
mond. liable 10 an income tax on these
payments. If the school bills and main
tenance accounts were forwarded TO
America and paid thence, no claim Tor
income tax would lie Counsel ex-
plained that under their grandfather )

The contention for the government

Gomez in his absence. a coup detat
which has kept him an exile from his
native country since 1905. General
Gomez was Vice President when Pres
ident Castro left Caracas for Europe
for medical treatment. He had been
one of Castro's closest friends ana
what Gomez was General Castro had
made him. General Castro has repeat
edly denounced President Gomez as
traitor for deposing him in his absence,
and has always maintained that he is
still the legal chief executive Of Ven
ezuela.
In the last few months disquieting
REPORTS have come from Caracas. Com
plant was made that President Gomez
was using the same methods as his
political preceptor. Several prominent
men have left the country, and many
more have been imprisoned. There
have been several reports of the land
ing of contraband arms in various
parts Of the country, but their origin
or for whom they were intended could
not be definitely learned.
President Gomez. however, has not
been blind TO the possibility of armed
orposition sooner or later during MS
tenure, and he has built up an army OF
5000 men. equipped with modern arms
and drilled along the most modern
lines. But like most Latin-Amerlcan
armies. their true value Is In their
loyalty, and they do not always remain

the latest report would not be either
confirmed or denied. There is abso-
