REVENUE COLLECTION
DISTRICTS REARRANGED

Washington. n. C.-Plans for the
roarrangement Of the sixty-four inter
nal revenue collection districts have
been announced by Commissioner Dan
iel c. Roper which will give to each
state. with the exception Of Nevada, a
separate collection district The plans
also provide for the establishment of a
permanent personal sclvicH' headquarI
ters in every important city in the coun-
try.
An executive order signed by the
president abolishcs ten collection dis
tricts and consolidatea them with ten
others. It also creates ten new districts
in states which do not now have sepa-
rate collection districts. The order is
effective August /.
The purpose OF the change IS to serve
the taxpayers more efficiently by open
ing division and subdivision headquar-
ters at important centors ana to Use the
collectors offices as clearing houses and
accounting centers for the Bureau at
Washington. The plan does not carry
with 1t the appointment OF n large mum
ber of new employers, but provides for
the more effective utilization Of the
present field force and will make for
higher efficiency.
"The new plan" said Commissioner
Roper. "when in full operation contem
plates that the people of every commu
nifty where the number Of federal tax
payers requires it. shall be assuerd that
within easy reach is a branch revenue
,rfice onpn pt all times where he tax
payer can go for blanks, advice and
expert assistance in making his tax re
urn and paying his taxes, thus saving
lim worry ana penalties, and relieving
he service of the present overwhelm

BARNE11'ESHAD HARD TIME0
 IN NORTHLAND

l The following extracts from the San Francisco Bulletin relates the hardships undergone by the Barnettes during the final days of their resi- dence in Fairbanks:
 1 A thrilling story of the frozen fields of Alaska, teeming with terrifying hardship and rugged romance through which g lone family, in constant fear of death, battled against tremendous odds to save their property from the cupidity of a gang of alleged lawless pioneers, was revealed today before Superior Judge James M. Trout. Mrs Isabelle Barnette who, with her husband, E. T. Barnette, founded l the town of Fairbanks, Alaska. is the heroine of the remarkable narrative unfolded before Judge Trout today. The case came up on the application of those being sued by Mrs. Barnett for $52,000 damages for change of jurisdiction in the suit to the federal courts.
 The defendants include the Wells Fargo-Nevada National bank and Fred G. Moves, receiver of the defunct Washington-Alaska bank.
 Loses Property.
 Mrs. Barnette in her complaint i ayers that she was compelled to part with her property when the Washing | ton-Alaska bank, of which her hus- band was the president and director, failed.
 To satisfy the creditors, all the property of the Barnettes was taken over by the receiver, and her own property, which she claims was not of community nature, was confiscated and taken away from her under threats against her life. The value of this property she seeks to recover
 Mrs Barnette graphically told of her flight from Fairbanks in the dark ness of night, bundled up on dog sled and carried out of town as mer- chandise to escape her alleged perse- cutors. She endured intense suffer ing during the trip down the Panama river to the Yukon and down that frozen stream to St. Michael's island where she was able to secure passage for the States.
 F Underwent Hardships. She was the first white woman in l Fairbanks She was the first woman to traverse the 400 miles of wilder tness between Valdez and Fairbanks, and in doing so performed feat many men wuld have refused to undertake. She underwent the hard ships of true pioneer life in the wild trip in the dead of winter Isabelle Pass, at the summit of the trail be- tween Fairbanks and Valdez is named for her. She was the first woman to cross that pass. Then there was no trail She and her husband guessed" the way and broke snow for the 400
