THIS ENTHUSIASTICALLY
PAYS THE GREATEST TAX

SAN FRANCISCO, GAIA federal
government tax running into millions
Of dollars will be levied upon the
estate of Henry Miller, cattle baron,
who died week ago leaving an
estate valued up to $40,00O,00O, 1t
became known today. The tax will
be claimed under a provision of the
new federal revenue act passed by
the last congress, which provides for
IA graduated tax on inherited estates.
j. J. Scott, internal revenue col
lector here, has taken steps to assess
the Miller property, it was said. He
is still awaiting detailed instructions
from Washington.
Estimating the Miller fortune at
$40, 100000, state and federal laws,
it was said, would bring the total
tax on the cattle kings estate to a
sum approximating $8,000,000 This
would be the largest assessment of
its kind ever levied in the United
States, officials here said.

A New Standard

The greatest new feature is a new
standard-lUO per cent over-strength,
That is, twice the strength required in
every Mitchell part.
This is not sudden change. John w.
Bate, our efficiency engineer, started
three years ago to attain this. Part by
part he has doubled our margins of
safety. But this is the first time we
have claimed for the Mitchell more than
50 per cent over-strength.
Now over 40 parts are built of tough
ened steel. The parts which meet the
major strains are built of Chrome-Vana-
dunn. The most important parts are
vastly oversize.
Every common weakness seems to be
overcome. Even our springs seem un-
breakable under any shock. In two
years constant service, on thousands of
cars, not one Bate cantilever spring has
ever yet been broker.

1t Belongs to You

This extra value belongs to you. I,
means more endurance, more safety.
less upkeep. 1t means the pinnacle of
luxury. 1t means many comfort and
convenience which other cars omit.
They are all due to Mitchell efficiency.
This model plant, covering As acres, was
built and equipped by John w. Bate.
Nowhere else in the world can car like
the Mitchell be built at the Mitchell cost.
Come see the results-the hundred
results which give unique value to the
Mitchell cars. Here is more for your
money-a great deal more-than in anv
other high grade car.
Never was this fact made so clear as
in these Mitchell models.
