RESTITUTION TO

FROM JAIL TERM
Judge Clark Gives Banker Un-

Depositors.

-GENESBO, N. Y, Noy. 2i.-Sub-
stantial restitution to the $1,000 East
Side depositors in Henry Siegels
private bank which was run in con-
nection with his string of depart
ment stores, will save the former
merchant prince sentence of ten
months in Jail and possibly a $1,000
fine. This was the expectation placed
on science imposed by Supreme Court
Justice Clark after a jury had found
Siegel guilty of a misdemeanor.
Friends of Siegels today declared
that he will never go to prison. 1t
was pointed out that when the Siegel
crash came, Chicago friends of the
accused agreed to raise a huge sum
of money to pay the depositors and
some of the creditors. These friends,
it was limited today, would now raise
the substantial restitution he prom

TRENTON. Nov 24-The selection
of a speaker of the House by the Re-
publican assemblymen before they
went into caucus today was nues-
ton far from being settled. The sup
porters of Assemblyman Carlton
Godfrey, of Atlantic, and John 3.
Kates, of Camden, both claimed they
had enough votes to entit'e them to
control the caucus, but figures were
withheld.
The Essex delegation of assembly
men, after arriving at the State
House, went into conference, and As
semblyman Thomas /. Smith after
ward said the Essex men would sup
port Mr. Godfrey for the speakership.
Essex county is understood not to
aspire after the honors of the House,
but has more of an eye on the patron
age that will be dispensed when the
Republicans have agreed upon their
makeup as to House officers.
Assemblyman r. Morgan Barradale,
of Essex, when questioned as to the
attitude of Essex men on the speaker
ship, said Godfrey would receive their
twelve votes.
One Of the incidents of the gather
ing here today was the presence of
Assemblyman Garfield Pancoast, of
Camden, seated on a chair outside Of
the executive offices. Mr.. Pancoast
is recovering from the effects of an
operation performed for appendicitis.
While he is still far from well, Mr..
Pancoast decided to come to the AS
sembly and vote for Mr. Kates.

Norman Angel, in his fine book, ''The Great

to burdensomeness of her taxation; that, ION the
the japanese people pay 80 per cent of their
net income in taxation IN ONE FORM OR AN
0THER;" and that such a condition would produce
revolution in any European country in "a hours.
1t Is extremely doubtful that Japan is breaking
such record. The American people, for instance,
probably pay 80 per cent of their incomes in
alton lin form another"
The remarkable thing about the japanese is that
large proportion of their taxation is direct and
still they have, yet, revolution.
Taxation In one form another covers a large

understand and against which they have already
started a revolution.
