MATERNITY BILL
FLAYED BY DOCTOR
Bay State Physician Say
Shepperd Act Would Bring
Communism.

Enactment of maternity legisia-
ton would lead to socialism, boil
shevism. and anarchy, according to
declaration made yesterday before the
Senate Committee on Educat lon and
Labor by DIR. Alfred H. Quessy, of
Fitchburg. Mass. who appeared in
opposition to the Shepperd bill.
There Is no evident DESIRE" DR..
Quessy said, ION the part Of the
American public for such legislation.
The women who are clamoring for
1t are those that have time to waste
and money to burn. This legislation
comes from the erroneous idea that
the health Of the American nation
has gone below the general standard.
This Is not the case.
The bill takes away the physici-
ans liberty to follow his profession
In his own way without interference
by the State or Federal government.
This condition would result in COM
munism."
DR.. Charles o. Donovan, OF Balti-
more, opposed the bill on the ground
that II would interfere with the
rights of the State and the people,
that II would entail too great an ex-
penditure and that nothing tangible
could be accomplished by It's enact
ment. The distribution OF funds un-
der the bill would allow. he said,
only 20 cents for the education of
each person.

USED 7TH BOOK OF
MOSES TO CAST SPILLS
Woman SWearS Husband Caused
Her to Waste Away.

POttsville, Feb. 1.-THE so-called
Seventh Book of Moses said to give
power 10 those who invoke its magic
aid equal to that of wltcncraft, figured
largely in a hearing before Alderman
Eckert.
William Wallace, Of Palo Alto, had
bis wife arrested for throwing flower
pots and other missiles at him, and
Mrs. Wallace in turn accused her hus-
bant of possessing the book, with which
to exercise uncanny powers over her.
Owing to the spell cast by the book,
she testified, she began TO get thin and
waste away, until she succeeded in
burning it. The husband admitted pos
session of the book, but said it was
loaned to him by friend as a curl
Osity and not for any supernatural
powers. Mrs. Wolf. mother of the de-
PENDANT, corrOborated her daughter as
to the power of the book to hex"

Alderman Eckert said he was guided

of Moses, and held Mrs. Wallace I'M

Maryland's Good Record
There's q Reason

More than S214,000 was invested
in thrift and war savings stamps ana
other government savings securities
In Maryland last year, according to a
report just made by the United
States Treasury Department. Much
of this money represents the earnings
and savings of school children, who,
organized into savings clubs. OF
which more than 1900 have been
formed in this federal reserve dis
trict, are investing their pennies and
nickles and dimes in the savings Sc
curities.
In the entire district the sales OF
thrift and war savings stamps ano
Treasury savings certificates amount
ed to $1,965,87S.49 with per capita
investment of 80 cents. For the
country at large a total of S41,9O9,-
7OO.91 is given, the par capita hg-
ure being 40 cents. Detail sales for
the fifth federal reserve district are
listed in the Treasury report as fol-
lows:

cial securities. This year the Gov
eminent Savings Organization OF
this district looks for larger sales
not only because of the momentum
which the savings movement is said

which the Treasury Department is
offering in addition to the savings

Re CKEFELLER GETS
S33,OOO,OOO A YEAR
IrC0ms Tax Figures Show His
Immense Fortune.

Washington, Feb l1-"Who is the
richest person i'll rIY United States and
what is his fOrtune?"
The answer to the first part of this
question is of course, Jonn d. Rookie
teller; the answer to the second part,
dCduciblc from income tax statistics
just published by the internal revenue
bureau, is that the fortune on the in
come of which he WAS taXel in 1913
was about $G5O,O0O. 900.
Reckoning i'll the capital. the tax on
the income of which IS exempt, his
total wealth in that year was probably
between SO0,000,OO0 and $1,OoO,OOO,-
600, ut the present tim" is perhaps
not much short Of the latter figure.
As his known benpfactiuns amount
to about $300,0O0.ODO, John -. Rookie
fellel has in the space of one lifetime
accumulated about $1,000 100000
Statistics of the internal revenue
bureau show that one woman. presum-
ably Mrs. f. II. Hartman, paid taxes
for the year 1918 on an income of from
S4,OOO,0 900 to $4,000 600.
AS for AR. Rockefeller the statistics
show roughly that he paid income tax
for the year 1918 on a net taxable in
come somewhere between $20,00O,O0O
and SO 100000, probably about $22,-
100000 after general deductions from
his returned income Of nearly So .O0O,-
coo.
This, of course, did not include the
exemptions of his charitable requests
which undoubtedly amounted to the Is
per cent Of his total income exempted
by law, nor did it include the income
f1om tax exempt Liberty bonds and
other tax exempt bonds, such as state
municipal bonds, which we're eXclud-
ed by law from federal tax.
At enc time he is said to have
bought $25OOO,0OO of New York city
