UTAH PIONEER IS
CALLED BY DEATH

Salt Lake, Sept. Phillip Mar
gets, pioneer, veteran actor and
the last of the "old guard" of Utah
dramatists is dead. His eventful
career ended at the L. d. S. hos
pital at o'clock yesterday morning
GA years to the day after he first
entered Salt Lake valley as a MEM
Der of the handcart company that
paved the way to the states devel-
opment. Born in Kineton, War
wickshire, England, February 10,
1929, Mr.. Margetts was 30 years
when he died.
The name of Uncle Phil" Mar
gets will ever be linked with the
history of Salt Lake and Utah. A
member of the first dramatic COM
pany organized in Salt Lake and
the state, he took an active part in
theatrical work thruout his life and
| y remembered for the fun he af
forded the first patrons of the Sal
Lake theatre.
Not alone is Uncle Phil known fol
his dramatic ability. A blacksmith
he was one of the minute men
organized during the early days o,
the state to protect the settler
against the frequent attacks of tn
| Indians.
Il Although for the past seven year
, Mr.. Margetts has been an invali
, his mind has been clear. Shortl
before he was stricken Mr.. MAJ
gets started to write a lecture o
THE Rise and Progress of tn
Drama in Utah" 1t was hisE pia
to deliver this lecture thruout tn
D state, but the plan never materia
lied. The manuscript is still inta'
although unfinished, and compris'
/ one of the many treasures Of Il
Z family.
5 Mr.. Margetts was taken to Il
L. D. S. Hospital three weeks az
He never recovered from the ap
pletic stroke of seven years ago al
it was from this together with ge
eral debility that he died.

TO IMPOSE STAMP TAX
ON SOFT DRINKS AND BEER

Washington, September IA
stamp tax on soft drinks as well as
beer and patent medicines is con-
templated by members of the house
ways and means committee which Is
preparing an emergency from an In
ternal revenue bill TO Offset treasury
losses due to curtailment of imports.
It is urged that soft drinks are ~
much luxuries as wines or beer, and
that an equitable distribution Of
the tax burden among all consumers
would be accomplished by this plan.
Another suggestion IN stamp tax
of or 10 per cent on railroad
tickets and admission to theatres,
baseball parks and other licensed
amusements. 1t is estimated that
from $50. 900. 900 to $50. .000. .0OO
could be raised in this way.
/ The committee has not deter
mined upon a complete taxation
plan as yet but purposes 10 hasten
its deliberation 80 a bill may be In
troduced soon after President vii
son addresses congress on the sub
ject which probably viii be immed
lately upon his return from New
Hampshire. Administration leader
are impressed with the necessity o
: quick action in order to disturb
business conditions as little as pos
. sible.
1 A doubling Of the present tax oI
: beer, it il estimated by treasury e.
perts, would produce ss5. 900 900
