PEORIA CONCERN
rs DEFENDANT IN
10 MILLION SUIT

|. Springfield, Ill, Feb. II. - Suit
for ten million dollars damages
was filed in the United States dis
trict court here today against the
Holt Manufacturing company of
Peoria, charging infringement of
rights. The complainants are
Charles Paridy, Belleville; Anna
McLathic, st. Louis, Mo, and Fer
dinand Lother, Belleville. This is
the largest suit ever filed in this
district.
The suit sets forth that Paridy in
1892 invented the Caterpillar trac-
tor, which idea was extensively
used in the manufacture of the cat
erpillar tanks in the world war
Paridy claims he was working on
his invention in 1892, but became
i'll and was unable to get it patent
ed. About twenty years later, he
obtained his patent, but during the
time from 1892 and the time he re-
ceived his patent papers, the Holt
company began using his invention.
The woman has a half interest in
the patent while the others have a
quarter interest each.
The case will be heard in Peoria

OF the experience we have gone

mailed out from Washington, but
the collectors have not yet re-

An income tax school of instruc-

While the revenue bill is now
awaiting the signature of the presi-
dent, the returns and payments are
due not later than March Is, which
means that some tall hustIing will
have to be done if the list of delin-
quents is kept down to reasonable
limits.
AS has been the case heretofore,
filling of the schedules will be a
task rather too formidable to be un-
dertaken by anyone who has not
had the advantage of some special
training Revenue officers, attor-
neys and others qualified to give
advice in the matter probably will
be putting in long office hours for

The shooting took place in the sa-
loon of Patrick Ryan, 1403 South
Halsted street HOsna had been
sent out to get Vogel for question
ing concerning a number of pick
pOcketing complaints. AS he en-
tered the saloon Vogel recognized
the detective and started for the
door. Hosna intercepted him and
both walked to the bar.
A whispered conversation be-
tween the detective and Vogel end
ed abruptly. Two shots rang out
and the detective fell to the floor
wounded twice in the left arm. AS
he lay there four more shots were
fired at him. One bullet penetrated
the lungs. Another went through
his chest
Vogel then dashed out of the sa-
loon, jumped into his automobile.
which he had left standing in front
of the saloon, and disappeared.
Vogel's machine was found yes
terday badly smashed at the cor
ner of Fourteenth place and Nor
gan street. Isadore Penseck, 1430
Morgan street, told the police he
saw a man answering Vogers de-
scription limp out of the car after
a collision with a lamp-post. He
said the accident occurred about
1890, a few minutes after the
shooting.
While on the operating table at
the hospital Hosna leaned over to
Lieut.. Michael Hughes of the bu-
reau.
Mike. get VogeL He shot me"
whispered Hosna-

wife shortly after midnight. Just
before he died he grasped his faith

Dad, 1 know that I died game
anyway. But get Vogel; he didn't
give me a chance"
Many friends and relatives visited
the HOsna home at 1901 North Ay-
ers avenue, to console the widow.
Hosna was transferred to the bu-
reau from Maxwell street station
after courageous and fearless per
iod of twelve years. He was de
voted to his home and family. and

2licy of the department. under this

policy Of the department under this
head.
Any person who deliberately
conceals tax liability, or who falsi-
fies d return in order to reduce or
evade any internal revenue tax, or
who deliberately abets such con-
cealment of fraud, finds arrayed
against him the entire strength of
the internal revenue bureau press
ing for the full extent of civil and
criminal penalties" says the ruling.
Toward the taxpayer" it con-
tinues, who means TO comply with
! the internal revenue laws, fully and
honestly, the bureau will extend
a helping hand. Cooperation will be
the watchword. These contrasts
the teeth of the law for the tax
dodger and vioIator and the aid of
the law for the taxpayer, will be the
policy.
"One of the most difficult of the
many problems in tax collecting is
to classify those who fail to fulfill
the obligations imposed. The bu-
reau is obliged to maintain a large
staff and to use the utmost discre-
LiOn III pIOptllS ldbcLihS LhSoC
cases. Eyen-handed justice is a
heavy responsibility and only
through careful siftings can delin-
quents be classified.
Classes of Delinquency.
There are three distinct classes
of delinquency with which we have
to deal. First, the taxpayer who
had reasonable cause, brought
about by exceptional conditions be-
yond his control; second, the fell
low who didn't look up or didn't
realize his obligations; and, third,
the person who willfully evades
compliance with the law"
The ruling then goes on to say
that in case a person is merely neg
ligent, there will be a compromise
which will entail an assessment to
impress against future violations.
Concluding it says:
80 the willing taxpayers
must have the guarantee of this bu-
reau that the laggards. the jugglers
and the violators will not escape
taxation and penalties"

He has returned to the canal zone.
The necessity for constantly polio
ing this field is that it is the cross
