Protest Against Shoe Tax

Formal protest against the luxury
tax on shoes will be filed by the Re-
tail Shoe Dealers Association of New
York at meeting to be held at the
Bush Terminal Sales Building to-mor-
row. John Slater, president of this
organization, declared yesterday that
this meeting would be the first step in
a campaign aiming to have the impost
on shoes selling for over $40 a pair
removed. He said that although it has
been in effect only few days, the 10
per cent tax already has resulted in
the slowing up of business.

Where Names Count

AT the suggestion of the American
Chamber of Commerce of China, Amer
lean firms organized to do business in
emma should be very careful in choos-
ing firm names to avoid such names as
China-American Co., Chinese American
Company, or, in fact, any combination
OF emma and America or any of its
forms, for these names have already
been overworked and much confusion
results therefrom. 1t would be best
says commerce reports, to avoid the
use of Chinese, American, Asiatic. Ori-
entail in any ordinary combinations.

rom Mineral Springs Vim:

From Mineral Springs Vim:
 John Morphew and Tom Law1ess, convicted at the February term of the Howard circuit court of mOonshining, and sentenced to terms of two years each in the penitentiary, were par+ doned recently by Rev. Dr. Charles Hillman Brough, governor of Arkanr sas, and have returned home in time to grow another "cawn" crop from which to manufacture more mountain dew.
 The officers of Howard and Pike counties had of late made strenous ef- forts to break up moonshining in this section, and had abc~t rounded up the gang, and had some of them in the pen and others enroute, but their work has all been in vain, as result of this act of the governor. It Is hard to re- concile such acts by Brough with the fact that he totes commission as . minister of the gospel.
 In addition to the aoove outrage, the federal court at Little Rock recently had the opportunity to put Prof John Pinkerton, the leader of the outlaw. of this section, out of the way for. a time, but let him slip by
