UNCLE SAM TO BAG
INCOME TAX DODGERS
Immense Force of Detectives to Start
Work Immediately Bringing to
Light 100000 Unpaid Taxes.
ONLY 3o,75o,ooo COLLECTED
Task Not as Difficult As One Would
Imagine as Bank Accounts Are
Open to Government Inspectors.

BY Congressman c. H. Tavenner.
Washington, June 22,-Within a
few days Uncle Sam will begin the
biggest job of detecting which he has
ever undertaken. There are some
100000 tax dodgers in the United
States-dodgers of the income
tax-and it is Uncle Sans job to
ferret them out with such thorough
ness that it will be an object les
son, the good effects of which will
be felt for years to come.
The government will undoubtly
call in an immence force of detec-
tives to aid in this work. Besides
the regular force of internal reve-
nue. deputies, body of men number
ing several thousand, it is likely
that the secret service branches Of
several other departments will be
called upon to aid in hunting down
the tax dodgers. 1t is to be man
hunt on a scale never before seen in
the United States.
"A man is a fool who attemps to
avoid the income tax said Com
missioner Osborne several weeks
ago and the commissioner
knew exactly what he was
talking about when he made
that statement. For the future
fiscal welfare of the United States
since it is the plan of statesmen
to gradually increase the income tax
and other forms of direct taxation
and gradually abandon indirect tax
atOn-it is essential that the income
tay be started off with collection
Of the most complete sort.
Consequently it is likely that the
full power of Uncle Sam as a de-
tective will be thrown into this work
of finding the tax dodgers. The
same intelligence and cunning
which has upset the shrewdest of
counterfiters and smugglers will be
employed to run down income tax
dodgers. The trailers of bank
thieves, of whiteslaVers, of border
gun runners, of conspirators against
the government of mail swindle of
all the various classes of criminals
which the government is called up
on to apprehend and punish, will
now take the trail of the tax dodger.
The trainers of the income tax cal
culated that the collection would be
about $54 100000 for the first year.
They estimated that the number of
citizens who would come within the
tax would be 100000. The actual
returns have fallen far short of the
estimates. TO date the assessments
are only $30,750,000, with some
100000 persons making returns. The
government sleuths therefore will
set out on the trail of 100000 dodg-
ers and 23,25O,000 in taxes.
The task is not so difficult as
many might imagine. The. detec-
tives will have access to the books
of banks and corporations. Those
whose incomes are. above $4,000 a
year are generally we'll known in
each community. The dragnet will
be fine meshed, and the government
does not expect many dodgers to es-
cape Heavy penalties are pre-
scribed for evading the tax, and the
government will undoubtedly at
tempt to exact these penalties to the
last penny as part of the object les
son.

HOW TO PREVENT
ACID STOMAChS and
FOOD FERMENTATION
BY q Stomach Specialist.

AS a specialist who has spent many
years in the study and treatment of
stomach troubles, / have been forced to
the conclusion that most people who
complain of stomach trouble possess
stomachS that gre absolutely healthy
and normal. The real trouble. that
which causes all the pain and difficulty
is acid in the stomach. usually due to.
or aggravated by, food fermentation.
Acid irritates the delicate lining of the
stomach and food fermentation causes
wind which distends the stomach OBJ
normally, causing that full bloated feel
ing. Thus both acid and fermentation
interfere with and retard the process Of
digestion. The stomach is usually
healthy and normal, but irritated almost
past endurance by these foreign ele-
nents-acid and wind. In all such cases
and they comprise over 80 per cent of
all stomach diffiCulties-the first and
only step necessary is to neutraliZe the
acid and stop the fermentation by TAX
ing in a little warm or cold water i'm
mediately after eating. from one to two
teaspoonfuls of bisurated magnesia
which is doubtless the best and only
really effective antacid and food cor
rective known. The acid will be neu-
traliZed and the fermentation stopped
almost instantly, and your stomach will
at once proceed to digest the food in a
healthy, normal manner. Be sure TO
ask your chemist for the bisurated mag
nes!a, as / have found other forms ut
terly lacking in its peculiarly valuable
properties.-F. ]. G.-Adyt.

last night, Secretary Redfield asserted
the business outlook is bright and the
unemployment problem no more acute
than is usually the case at this time
of the year. He added that the cost OF

Secretary Redfield denied that. with
the reduction Of the tariff, there had

PLAN TO IMPROVE
L'ENFANT CIRCLE
Citizens Association Wants
Tract Removed From Juris-
diction of Commissioners.

Consideration Of plans for the inl-
! provement of L'Enfant Circle, at
Pennsylvania and Minnesota ave-
nues, occupied much of the session
last night Of the Randle Highlands
Citizens Association. Members of the
association say the circle has never
been improved to any appreciable eN-
tent. They are trying to have it
transferred to the care OF the super
intendent of public buildings and
grounds and removed from the juris-
diction OF the District Commissioners.
This plan was given new impetus
when correspondence was read from
tthe District office to the effect that
no system of general improvement
could be undertaken until the streets
and sidewalks adjacent to the circle
are improved.
President S. f. Snyder announced
that proceedings for the condemna-
tion of ground to extend Twenty fifth
street will be commenced within two
weeks. Endorsement was given to 4
proposed community meeting to be
held in April.
Commissioner Siddons IS to be III

are being circulated for the laying OF
granolithic sidewalks along certain
parts of Pennsylvania avenue extend
ed, between Minnesota avenue and the

to the improvement of the Anacostia
river, several members said dredging
is to be carried on in a systematic

opens.
