THE recent elections show plainly

I think the voters were wise. There

Colonel Irish, were arguing at their
club on the question as to who should
be at the head of the house-the man
or the woman.
I'm the breadwinner,' Black said
firmly, and, therefore, I. rule in my
house.

THE INCOME TAX IS
CONSTITUTIONAL
SUPREME COURT IN UNANIMOUS
DECISION SWEEPS AWAY
CONTENTION.
Opens Way For Increasing Tax or
Great Incomes to Help Pay
for National Defense.

ashihgton.-The income tax has
been declared constitutional by the
supreme court in unanimous decision
which swept aside every contention
raised against it and, in the opinion
of, congressional leaders opened the
way for increasing the tax rate on
great fortunes to help pay for nation
al defense.
Proposals are pending in Congress
to tax incomes more than 100000
as high as so per cent. Leaders on
all sides agree that outside of the i'm
petus which the decision today will
give such proposals is likely to come
a definite movement to levy on the
revenues from great private fortunes
for some of the millions the govern
and navy increases.
1.-THE supreme courts decision has
absolutely unfettered the income tax
as a source of revenue" said Repre-
sentative Hull of Tennessee, author
of the law Cali doubt is removed
and congress is left much freer to
act. I believe congress will take adj
vantage of the opportunity to amend
the law materially. Without any un-
usual or unjust charges it can be made
to yield $1S5,OOC,OOO to $195,OO0,O00 a
year, as against $S5,Ooo,OOO or seO,OOO,-
900 at present"
Representative Hull is preparing
amendments to carry the tax to in
comes below $1,000 and make graded
increases in the sur-taxes on incomes
exceeding $4,000 a year.
So far, the problem of raising the
revenue for national defense, although
approached from many angles, has not
been carried toward any definite solu-
tio<1 because with the constitutional
ity Of the income tax undecided ad-
ministration leaders were reluctant to
place too much DEPENDENCY on it..
In it's decision the supreme court
construed for the first time the Six
teenth Amendment to the Constitu-
ton under which the tax is levied
and gave it the broadcast Interpretation
possible, rejecting suggestions to
confine it's scope to narrow limits
The decision was announced by
Chief Justice White and was rendered
in the appeal of Frank R. Brushaber
from the action Of the New York Fed
eral court.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 11.-Arrange- nents are being made to push the in- estigatlon Into gasoline prices with I'll the energy the government has at ts command.

At the first op' ,ortunity, somebody, or something, Is ,oing to suffer.
 A Congressional investigation un. loubtedly will be proposed. but 1t Is aid that this will not be encouraged. lnce the trade commission is clothed with plenty of power and is anxious or a chance to show wh1t 1t can do While resolutions providing for con. ressional investigations probably vill be introduced, 1t may be in both 'ouses.. 1t secm5 sase to say that they vill be pigeon-holed-for the present t least.
 While details of the proposed In. uiry are lacking. 1t Is said that it vlll take on at leaet two forms;
 First-To a-certain the truth'ulnese 'f charges that in places where thee g active ccmDetition between the 'arge oil companies. prices are norma' md that In other sections, where here Is no comOetitipp. the price is 'ived upon the basis ll the traffic will bear"

Warner appears. For years a promin-

now achieved an enviable position In

than repeats the success he made IN
such other Triangle Pictures as The

pore" He was young clergyman and
she, (Clara Williams), an American
heiress. Her mother wanted the girl to
marry a Count for his title and posi-
ton and the Count wanted to marry
her for her American dollars. so a
match was planned that would have
wrecked the happiness Of three lives.
Should young girl consider matri-
monv for the sake Of title? That's
the vital question in this Triangle Pic
ture, and it's question that Is Of deep
interest to every motion picture patron,
whether young or old. The numbers OF
American girls who sell themselves or
are sold by scheming mothers Is ever
increasing Nine times out Of ten the
girls repent in later years and look
back with sorrow at their happy fault.
It Is a grand good picture and has a
punch in every scene.
