Controller Travis Asks
Income Tax Cooperation
Says in That Way Only Can
Law and Adequate Test
Of Law Be Made

State Controller Travis, who has
charge Of collecting the state income
tax, said yesterday that to make fair
and adequate test of the wisdom of the
Legislature in enacting the law he will
need the hearty and generous coopera-
ton of every taxpayer.
"And by just, impartial and insis-
tent enforcement of the provisions of
the law" added the Controller, "I shall
confidently expect such cooperation"
He said he expected upward of $780,
600 returns would be mate to aid those
still in doubt as to the principal feat
ures of the law. He added:
"Thc rate of tax is l per centum of
net incomes not in excess of $4,000;
2 per centum on the next $4,000 Of
such income and 3 per centum on such
income exceeding $4,000 in any year.
In arriving at gross income Of tax
payer, there are excluded receipts from
life insurance policies, returned pre-
miums, gifts and inherited property
and income devoted exclusively to re-
ligious, charitable, educational, scien-
tifc and like purposes, and interest on
obligations Of the United States, this
state and its municipalities and poll
tical subdivisions.
"To compute net income, deductions
are allowed for business expenses,
taxes, losses, depreciation and deple-
ton, and for gifts and contributions
made for the purpose enumerated not
in excess of Is per centum Of the tax
payers net income. And in further
reduction, residents are allowed an ex-
emption from net income of 81 900 to
single persons and $4,000 for married
persons, plus 5000 for each DEPENDENT
All persons residing or dOinr business
in the state and all persons who re-
ceive income from sources from within
the state, and all resident estates and
trusts are liable to the tax Residents
are taxable on their entire net income
computed as above, and non-res dents
only on their income derived from
sources within the state"

$65,OOO Check for
Apples Stopped at Bank
Man Who Wrote 1t Is Taken
to SanatOrium and Boom in
Orchard Prices Collapses

NEW PALTz, N. Y, Aug. 23.-The apple
market of Orange and Ulster counties,
which got boom that sent prices soar
ing the other day when James Delaney,
of Yonkers, paid 5000 for the crop
Of three small orchards in New Paltz,
fell with crash to-day, when Delan-
eys purchase was exposed as hoax.
Roslf Dubois sold the orchards
crop tc Delaney for 5000 The pur-
chaser said he had the backing of the
Yonkers Trust Company and gave a
check On the bank to Dubois for $65 900.
The payment o! such n sum for apples
excited growers ano the sale was widely
advertised in the press.
Apple Prices Went Ballooning
Now comes the sad part of the story.
When the check was taken to the Yon-
kers Trus. Company by Dubois it de-
veloped that Delaney had but $4,000
there. which he had deposited short
while before the apple purchase. In
vcstigation by Dubois and the bankers
developed that Delaney was suffering
from mental troubles when he bought
the apple crops and his family had to
put him in sanatorium for treatment
Dubois tore up the check and the price
of apples is falling still in his neigh
borhood.

Episcopalians Seekingg
Sunday School Increases
Plan to Combine Children's s
Mass to Check Decrease i'm
Attendance

Twenty-three parishes in the New
York Episcopal Diocese have completed
surveys relative to their Sunday school
attendance. A marked falling off is re-
ported in nearly all cases. st. Bar
tholomew's, Park Avenue and Fiftieth
Street, with $3.50 members, has an en-
rolment of 700. St. Ignatius's Church,
West End Avenue and Eighty
Street, with 900 individuals and $50
families, has thirty-seven; Grace
Church, Tenth Street and Broadway
with 1900 individuals, has 100
Explaining the situation at St. Igna
tius's, Father Hall, the curate, said
that the problem in his church is the
congreg cations in city churches. He said
the plan already adopted was to have a
children's mass preceding the regular
Sunday school session, because it was
found that the parent tsook their chill
dren to the regular masses and then
went home with them. The childrew%s
mass is held at $3.50 a. m. Next sea-
son, Father Hall said, the ohildren's
mass and the Sunday school will be
combined. He thought the best way to
increase the Sunday school enrolment
was to get the children in the neigh
borhood of the church who were unat
tached. "But how to do that is the
question: he added.
The figure of 100 represents the en-
rolment at Grace Church proper, Tenth
Street and Broadway, the Rev. c. G.
Baird said. The congregation there is
largely made up of adults whose homes
are scattered uptown. At Grace Church
Chapel, Ais East Thirteenth Street, the
number is between 800 and 400, and the
children live in the neighborhood.

Held for $1,000 Fur Theft
Detectives Arrest Man With
Two Trunks in Van

Detectives who were working on the
robbery of the fur store of Wolf Sobel,
1854 Madison Avenue, yesterday. ar
rested Samuel Schechtman, clothing
worker, living at 81 Second Street.
They say they found the man sitting
upon two large trunks in a moving
van. They ordered the truckman to
drive Schechtman and the trunks to
the East 1O4th Street station.
Sobel was sent for and when the
trunks were opened identified the con-
tents as his property. Schechtman de-
MED any completely in the robbery
and said he purchased the furs from
an Italian for $1,400. On his person
at the time of arrest were found, the
police say, a pair Of waxed gloves, q
pocket searchlight and quantity of
sticking plaster. He was locked up.
The furs stolen are said to be worth

trouble, II; illness, 465; smoking
opium, so; discouraged, 8; alcohol, Z,

There should be a national cam

Dr.. Copeland. "More beotIeggers are
