COLBY REPLIES TO BECK.

ms n Defamer.

cambridge Colby. who was appointed
to the Shipping Board by President
Wilson. answered James NJ. Beck's re-
cent attack upon the Presidents foreign
policy at a dinner given last night in
Mr.. Colbys honor by the Andiron Club
at the Hotel Belleclaire.
ut is high time" said Mr.. Colby, that
James NJ. Beck should be taken to task
for his outrageous defamation of the
President. How many rational Ameri-
cans does he think he can carry with
him In denouncing President Wilson's
foreign policy as a black stain of dis
honor upon the American people, The
days are few. the hours are very brief,
when Mr.. Beck will have the hardihood
to make such a statement above a
whisper"
Mr. Colby described the peace for
which the President is striving as the
most significant pact ever concluded in
behalf Of righteousness and national
security and permanent peace since the
world began"

TAX CONTEST WON
BY MRS. CONSIDINE
Penalty Reduced From, 10 to s
Per Cent.

Aimee Angeles Considine, former ac-
tress and widow of George Considt 10,
scored a partial success yesterday in the
fight she has been waging In the courts
TO have the penalty for non-payment of
the State transfer tax on her husbands
estate reduced. Justice Fowler, in Sur
rogate's court, signed an order lowering
the penalty from 10 to per cent. The
value OF the estate is not known, al
though It Is said to be considerably in
excess of the $1,000 in personal property
which Considine was reported to have
left shortly after his death.
Mrs. Considins claimed in her petition
that much time was lost In locating the
estate and valuing II so that the trans
fer tax law could be compiled with. After
Consdines death a vault In the Com
mercial Trust Company was opened and
found to contain only jewelry and stocks
and bonds In concerns which had Iona
before gone out of business. The trans
fer tax was fixed last February and the
penalty accrues while the tax remains
unpaid for a period OF eighteen months
Mrs. Considine was the second wife
OF Considine, who died in 1915.
