III. S. NAVY IS now
SECOND IN WORLD
lie Plans Are Carried Out
Uncle Sam Will Have
1921 Vessels in 1920
(By Agsociated Press. )

washington, Dec. 1.-THE Ameri..
can navy will number total of L.
291 vessels, including forty battle-
ships and 329 destroyers on July /,
1920. according to a statement pre-
pared by Rear Admiral Griffin, chief
Of the bureau of steam engineering,
for the house naval committee, and
made public today. I.
Navy Grew Rapidly
This statement shows that when
war was declared there were 1854
ten days before hostilities ceased.
there were TIT, exclusive of pritateIy
owned yachts and other vessels TAX
en- over for patrol service. The
greatest increase was 300 in subma-
rine chasers. The increase in de-
stroyers was Il to a total of 90. and
that Of submarines from a to 70.
Number of Eagles Reduced
Only two Eagle boats had been
completed on Nov. 1. Ninety eight
others We're contracted for, but Rear
Admiral Taylor, chief of the bureau
of construction and repair, has in
formed the committee, it became
known today, that the navy depart
ment has given orders that only 60
OF the vessels be completed.
El9nr SartieShlpS Planned
Only two battleships were added
to the fleet during the war, and only
one will be added between this time
and July /, 1920, Admiral Griffin
said. Six others, however, actually
are under construction. and two, the
Tennessee and California, are an
proximately half completed, Work
on three others is yet to be started.
Five Battle Cruisers Authorized
Admiral Taylor Informed the com
mittee that contracts are yet to be
placed for 20 ships which have been
authorized.
Work has not yet started on anv of
the five battle cruisers authorized in
1916, the laying down OF these yes-
sells and other major craft having
been deferred because of the demand
for destroyers during the war. Nine
ty-fve destroyers authorized during
the war now are more than half
completed.

CORPORATIONS
BEAR BURDEN
Persons of Small Means
Escaped Lightly From
War Tax Burden
CIV Asaoclated Preaa. J

Washington, Dec. 7.-Direct taxes
fell heavily on corporations and on
persons having large incomes and
lightly on the great majority of per-
sons earning less than $4,000 q year,
it was shown today by the annual re-
port Of Internal Revenue Commits
sioner Daniel g. Roper, for the year
ending June 80, Although 100000
persons with incomes of $4,000 or
less In 1917. filed returns, including
many heads of families having in
comes ranging between $1,000 and
$4,000 which were reportable but not
taxable, they were assessed only
$22,395.00o in the aggregate, or less
than $40 each. On the other hand.
$4,000 individuals with incomes Of
more than So, 900 were assessed $685.
$4,000.
Corporations Paid Heavily.
Corporation excess profits taxes Of
$2,045, $4,000 came from $4,000 con-
Germs, while 21s,000 corporations
were assessed income taxes OF $4S.-
$4,000. Other assessments by
classes were as follows:
Insurance companies income taxes.
200 returns, $3,072,000; railroad
companies income taxes. 4.o96 re-
turns, $29, S7s,o 900; individuals sub
JEEL u CsSSSES pIOAIS IoAI o4JVVV Az
turns. $S8,7S1, 900; partnership excess
profits tax, $500 returns, $685.
900; munttion manufacturers, 2,24S
returns, $9,41s,000.
Actual collection figures differed
slightly from the assessments.
Liquor and Tobacco Taxes Heavy.
Revised reports on collections
show that $685., $4,000 was collect
ed from internal revenue, including
81, 1913, es9, 900 from income and excess
profits taxes, $317,653,000 from dis
titled spirits, $126,2s5, 900 from fer
mented liquors a total Of $44S, 1888, 900
from all liquors, and $156, 1sS, 900 from
tobacco.
Switched System.
The year 1918 marked the begin
ming of new era Of taxation, COM
mented Mr.. Roper, because the bulk
came from income and profits taxes
rather than from liquor as in prev
ious years. In 1914, under the first
income tax law, only 16 per cent Of
total internal revenue collections
were from income and excess profits
taxes, whereas in 1918 rs per cent
came from these sources.

Well. nobody honked the horn to
wake the chauffeur at early dawn
as mentioned in the last story. So
Uncle Lucky had to go out to the
garage and give the Luckysnowbile
some gasoline for breakfast, and
after that he polished the lamps and
tho cushions and busted off the little
red sIeds which were in place OF the
wheels. YOU remember, and after
that he honked the horn and rang
the sleighbells to make sure that
everything was in carrot-pie oroer,
and then he and Billy Bunny pulled
the warm bufralo robe over thelr
feet and started out for ride.
0Now, the first thing do" said
the kind old gentleman rabbit, IS to
make a call on Mrs. Mouse in her
little green house. For maybe she
hasn't got any coal, for 1 hear lots
OF poor people are having a dreadful
time to get coal"
Well, by and by, after a while,
they came to where Mrs. Mouse
lived. But, oh, dear me. Her house
was as cold as a Harlem fiat when
the janitor's sick and the coaIs all
gone.
"You come home with u.s." said
dear, kind Uncle Lucky. I'VE have
lots of heat at my house" So poor
little Mrs. Mouse put on her bonnet
and her silk rnitts and her cashmere
shawl and got into the Snowmobile.
And wasn't her nose blue with the

wasn't because she blew it with her
handkerchief, either.

"Why doesn't that old robber stay
