UNITED Press CORRESPONDENCE
London, Nov. 25.-Growing fear of
another Balkan war, with Italy and
Jugo-Slavia playing the leading
roles, were expressed in the British
press today.
The situation created by Gabri-
ellie d'Annunzio in Fiume and Dalma-
tia has brought the allies nearly to
the end Of their patience, in the
opinion of some newspapers. If this
situation is allowed to continue un-
checked it will provide new war In
the opinion of the Evening Standard.
The Pail Mall Gazette fears a pos
sible Balkan war, unless the peace
conference takes action to enforce its
decisions with regard to Fiume and
Dalmatia.

HEAVY PENALTY FIXED
FOR TAX DODGERS
"Tax dodgers may take
warning by the eighteen
months prison sentence i'm.
posed on William A. English
and John II. O'Brien. Boston
wool merchants who pleaded
guilty Of conspiracy to de-
fraud the Government of
Federal Income taxes" said
Commissioner of Internal Rev.
enue Daniel c. Roper tOdoy.
1T is and will be the policy
Of the Bureau to pursue tax
frauds relentlessly. This is
the only course possible in JUS
tice to the man who honestly
pays his share of the common
levy.
I'm the checking up of re-
turns, evidence to show fraud
will be followed by a thorough
and complete investigation
which tho it may require years
will be continued until the
persons involved are brought
to justice.
In every case warranted
by the facts the Bureau will
urge the imposition of the ex-
IRENE penalty.
Taxpayers who have not
met their full tax requirement
should not wait until discovery
is made by a revenue officer.
There is a great difference be
tween the self discovered tax
dodger or tax delinquent and
the one discovered by our Of
flee. The time for comprO-
mise is before discovery by a
government official.
1T is our determined policy
that wealth shall not influence
to prevent wilful tax dodgers
from going to Jail. The big
and financially able must be
treated in the same way as the
small wiliful violator. and
hence compromises through
money will be rejected.

to defraud the government out
of about 95 per cent of tax due

RACING AS
PUBLIC BENEFIT
Canada Considers Plan to Put Horse
Racing on High Plane ana
Limit Promoters
Profit.

NEW YORK, Oct. 14.-Canada is
considering a plan to make horse
racing, which is conducted on high
plane there, work to the benefit OF
the general public.
The plan advanced is to limit the
returns of promoters to a fair per-
centage of profit on their investment
and devote the remainder of the re-
ceipts of the meetings to good
roads fund.
Among the owners favoring the
plan is Commander J. K. L. Ross,
owner of Sir Barton and Billy Kelly
and one of the most prominent
figures in Canadian and United
States racing circles.
Discussing the project here re.
Gently, Commander Ross not only ex-
pressed his approval or 1t but went
farther by recommending plan to
make the public share even greater
benefits from the sport. He wants a
part of the surplus devoted toward
the breeding Of better horses.
THE government could use part OF
the money for the provision of stall
lions so the farmers could receive
direct benefit by the opportunity to
breed finer animals. The need of the
farmer for better horses was never
greater he said. "The primary OBJ
ject of racing should be to encourage
better breeding. | have been trying
to encourage it by inviting farmers
to bring mares to my farm at
Varennes. While the offer has been
accepted on only small scale, the
venture has been very successful
With a properly worked out scheme
under which the government stall
lions could tour the farming district
of Canada, the farmer would derive
untold benefits"
