CLAIMS Of MR.. NJ 'ADOO
ARE DEEMED TOO ROSY
Republican Members of Congress
Pick Flaws in Democratic
Financial Plans.

The statement of Secretary McAdoc
in regard to the present assets of the
government and the revenues estimat-
ed for the future is entirely too rosy
in the opinion of republican members
of Congress in Washington today.
Senator Smoot of Utah, a close stu
ment, said that ne intended to analyze
the McAdoo statement carefully, and
then would Issue a statement regard
ing 1t.
"The democrats are counting as as
sets money in the Treasury which has
ALREADY been appropriated for specific
purposes" he said "They do not take
any account of the obligations of the
government in connection with this
money. l might give you $40 to pay
a Doctors bill, and you would have SIC
in your pocket. but it would not be an
asset of yours, and IL you wanted tG
spend $40 you would have to get an
other ten. But the democrats seem to
go on the principle that the $40 des-
tined for the doctor and already eX-
pended are assets"
Sees Possible Hornets Nest.
Senator Smoot gave it as his opinion
that If the democrats attempt to place
a tax upon gasoline and to extend the
income tax so as to cover incomes as
low as $4,000, as suggested by Secre-
tary McAdoo, they would find them
selves in hornets nest.
Another republican senator expressed
the same opinion Senator Smoot In
regard to the McAdoo statement. He
added that the democrats would have
to face. sooner or later. the question OF
levying a tax upon the manufacture OF
~ III
"The democrats do not want to face
this question" this senator continued
But such a tax probably would be pop
uIar with the people. I believe that the
democratic administration was forced
to take up the preparedness program by
the people interested in munitions"

DUAL LIFE OF MAYO IS DROPPED
IN COOK DEATH CASE
New Haven, Conn.,, March O.
Chemical examii ltion of the organs
of Lillian May Cook the Brooklyn
girl whose disappearance and later
suicide served to bring to light the
dual life of her employer with two
other women, was proceeding today.
The states attorneys office issued
a formal statement after midnight
generating her employer, Virginius
J. Mayo, from any suspicion in con-
nection with the girls death. But
police are now searching for a young
man with whom Miss Cook was said
to be very friendly. Coroner Mix adj
mitted that enough evidence had been
discovered of a possible physical
reason which might have caused the
girls suicide to justify thorough in-
Yestigation.
The states attorney, in announcing
that Mayo was IN no way connected
with the investigation, declared that
he did not propose to take any fur

.sSTKON0HEART'' 4 SUCCESS

r ..sTRoNaHEART', 4 SUCCESS
One Of the most successful home tai
emit plays that has been given in Lit:
tie Falls, and the most successful one
ever given in the auditorium of the
new high school was staged last Fri
day evening, May Z, by the Senior
class Of 1915.
The play contained more action and
spirit than is usually shown in an am
ateur play. 1t was full to the "brim'
with life from the time one character
entered until his exit. Although col
lege play, it was not Of the usual ma
ture of one in that it contained more
seriousness and required more though hit
to perform than the average college
play.
Those who took part seemed inter-
ested and worked hard to make the
play a "go.' Richard Meyers, the
leading character, who took the part
Of Strongheart won the admiration OF
the the audience from his entrance.
Annette Fortier, as Dorothy Nelson,
shared in the honors with Richard and
it was very hard to judge which de-
served the greater credit. Lawrence
Cook, also deserved much praise for
MS luGcI pIcCdC1Ou VI uO1AC Guc VII
liam in the play. Everyone who took
part deserved credit to the fullest ex-
tent.
About the most impressive scene Of
the play was in the fourth act when
Miss Nelson and Strongheart were to
part forever and where Strongheart
pleaded with the "Father of All to
give him strength to go on "alone.'
A feature that added spice to the
play was the selections by the High
School orchestra. Dancing was sup
posed to have been going on in the
next room and with the aid Of the or
chestra this part was made more real.
The orchestra appeared before the au-
dience before the play began and be-
tween acts.
The Boys Glee club and the Girls
Glee club also added to the evening g
enjoyment.
The Seniors paid royalty Of $25
on the play, but feel that they were

Of play that was secured. The total
receipts from the play were $246.7o::
