ROCKEFELLER TO
ESCAPE BIG TAX

Cleveland, Ohio, April 4.-John
d. Rockefeller may not have to pay
his millions of tax money into the
Cuyhoga treasury. Because he was
a resident at his Forest Hill home on
and after the 1st of February, it was
understood the tax would be levied,
but new bill recently passed
changed the tax day back to April
Is, and as he left here before today
he may therefore be tax free in
Ohio. Strong efforts were made to
have Governor Cox veto the bill
when this fact became public, but
the governor was then on a pleas
ure trip to Florida. Mr.. Rockefel-
ler's case is not the only one which
is affected by the amendment, for
several multi-millionaires of Ohio
in the same position.
