and when he presents his name in order to withdraw some money that he has coming to him, it is hard to establish the fact that he is really the man who he pretends to be.
 In order to overcome this difficulty and also to make provision for better identification of those illiterates who now only make their mark" the postal authorities in Washin gton has given the local office permission to use fingerprints for records of depos- itors. Although it seems as though there would be great difficulty in checking up on finger prints to find the correct corresponding print, those who are used to this work say that there is so much difference in the various prints of the thumb that an expert can classify and file away cards with the impression on them as fast almost as a name could be filed. Besides the marks of the fingers never change unless the hand should be injured. Some of the lar gest banks in the eDuntry have al- ready taken up the Idea of using this system to register depositors who | find it fihicult to write out a legible l signature.

Snoot Explains His Sales Tax Bill

TEXT of the sales tax bill, introduced
i by Senator Smoot of Utah, shows
that the bill imposes tax of l per
cent on all turnovers, with an annual
exemption of $4,000, the effect of this
being TO exempt smaller farmers and
tradesmen 1t has been estimated that
the L per cent would yield more than
$4,000, 100000 annually.
In a statement in behalf of the plan
Senator Smoot says its advantages are
extreme simplicity Of assessment and
collection, a lew tax rate, applying uni
fermly on all commodities, and alb
sence of complicated features which
make it difficult for the taxpayer to
know at any time what his tax liabili-
ties are. Senator Smoot defines the
proposed general sales tax as follows:
"a tax on the gross value of goods,
wares and merchandise, whether raw
material or manufactured, or partially
manufactured products, whether OF
domestic or of foreign origin, and such
as are generally sold or exchanged
and delivered for domestic consump-
ton, whether in barter or on cash,
credit, or installment basis, which tax
