Didn't Paw FulI Taxes.

The moonshine scandal broke when
it was discovered that many of the
whiskey distillers were paying taxes
on only 80 or 40 per cent of their out
put. By collision with revenue Off
GERS, storekeepers and other govern
ment officials, the distillers were able
to escape detection for years, it was
alleged. 1t is estimated that the
fraud had been in progress ten years.
Several of the men indicted are
now serving terms in the federal pen
itentiary at Leayenworth. Revenue
officers confiscated the stock of the
Rush Distilling Company Of this city,
one of the alleged distributors of the
"moonshine" whiskey, and sold the
whiskey at auction.

PRINCETON, N. J., June 14.-Prince-
tons. 1920 annual commencement, de-
voted to a celebration of victory and
the part Princeton men played in the
war, has started off with a rush. with
more than $500 graduates attending.
The keynote OF the programme is
relaxation from the military duties
which are now over, and a mammoth
get together of old friends who have
been scattered to the four corners OF
the earth. Sedate Generals. Colonies
and naval Captains have thrown off the
mask of official dignity to frolic through
four memorable days with their class
mates, who may have been gobs or
privates
Although the returning graduates rep
resent classes from 1857 to.191S, 1874
Is the oldest class to establish regular
headquarters. Altogether thlrty-one
classes have set up their tents and are
conducting an organized reunion. Each
class has hired Its band. and the notes
from thirty-one musical aggregations
serve not only to keep the campus in
an uproar but also to maintain a high
pitch OF enthusiasm.
The festivities started at O'Clock
this morning, when 1913 turned out Its
band and about fifty members for a
temporary grand parade. This inspired
every other class to a similar display,
and within an hour each class was out
in force. led by its band and enthusi-
astic marshals.
AS expected the traditional orange
and black of Old Nassau was to be found

, les deviated from the general rule. The

commencement is on with a roar. No
other single word seems better to fit the
enthusiasm and the gay stir of the great
crowds OF alumni from more than sixty
classes that are already here in their
multicolored costumes. The coming of
peace means so much to Yale that the
commencement this year has become
festival of rejoicing.
For forty-eight hours Yale men who
were graduated as far back as 1851 and
Yale men of the intervening years to
1918 have been pouring into town as
eager as children for the victory COM
mencement. The problem of housing the
thousands, for at least 10000 visitors
will be here, Is a serious one, and many
will have to bunk in tents. The streets
look like the combination of a hundred
musical comedies, what with the gay
blue and white costumes. the brilliant
Coreans, the pirates and cowboys and
all the rest of the burlesque costumes
selected by the classes to make fun for
the jollification. The classes back Of
1890 are wearing blue and white. blue
coats and white trousers, or blue trousers
and white coats, with other variations !;
while the classes that come after have
chosen almost every whimsical garb
imaginable.
The war side OF commencement will be
Impressive. More than 5000 Yale men
have been in uniform. The war record
of the university reveals that 207 were
killed, like number wounded and that
more than 200 were decorated for gal
lantry. Among Yales service men to be
especially honored are the artillery1nen
trained by Brig. Gen. Robert NJ. Dan
ford. recently selected as commandment
of cadets at West Point. Gen Danford,
as Capt. Danford, is credited with ha--
ing taught more Yale men the principles
of artillery than there were artillery Of
flcers in the army before the war began.

said:
