There she must remain until the

her lawyers will apply to the Kings

commission, IL it finds her mentally
unbalanced. will advise her conlmittal
to an institution for the insane. The
attorneys will decide within a day or
two whether to go to trial, using in
sanity as their defense.
This latter course Is the more

Mrs. Raizen was questioned by

1t was said that her plea, when put

She dopied IN oueatioparS that ubo

DIR. Glickstein at other places than
in his office.
As Mrs. Raizen was going up the

by taxing the American people"
At this point Mr.. Good was inter
rupted by Representative Oldfield,
Democrat, Arkansas, who said he
feared the Republican party would i'm
pose sales tax to take the place of the
one it wanted to repeal
The party that is so foolish as to
place a sales tax on the backs and bel
lies of the American people," Mr.. Good
replied, "would go down to a humiliat-
ing defeat because the people would not
stand for it."
Mr.. Good said the higher tax of S6.40
gallon should be imposed on with
drawal of liquors from bonded ware
houses-liquors taken out for medicin-
al and used for beverage purposes. BY
lifting the tax from s2.20, he figured.
the treasury revenue would be in
creased from $4,000, 900 to $10O, ,000,-
600 BY demanding the same tax on
the tobacco industry that Great Britain
collects, he said treasury receipts from
this commodity would jump from $780,
600, 600 to $500, ,000, 600 a year. He also
advocated a higher tax an passenger
carrying automobiles, figuring on
revenue of about 100000, 900, half oi
which should go, he thought to the
