This rule promulgated by a board of school trus-

population into two hostile camps, set neighbor

OF removing the Shine" from her saucy little nose,

CATTLE DIPPING IS
LIKELY TO CEASE
Cut in Appropriation of Live
Stock Sanitary Board
the Reason.
(By JOHN c. TRIcE)

TALLAHASSEE, May 27.-There
was some further consideration of tbs
live stock Sanitary Board bill, in which
tie fate % cattle tick dipping is bound
up, in the senate Friday, and some
amendments made, one of which tends
away from cattle dipping, before the
senate went into executive sessi IN. Thc
amendments in brief are as follows:
Making the governor and all mem
bers of the board instead CT fG.lr mcrn-
bers only. This provides a seven man
board, all of them constitutionalIy
elected members.
Serum to be furnished at cost in
stead of cost plus transportation.
The board instructed to give prefer
ence to efforts to stop contagious dis
eases in livestock. This is interpreted
as likely to stop cattle. tick dipping.
No effort has yet been made to re-
store the appropriation to $150.000. the
size of the bill sent over from the
house. Probably there will be another
fight on this before the senate is
with the bill.
There was little objection to make
all of the cabinet officers members of
the board. The next amendment was
offered by Senator Knabb striking out
a whole section of the present law.
This would have had the effect of kill
ing the power of the board to declare
against any section where
there might be infectious diseases and
the senate voted it down.
Section two, which prescribes that
the headquarters shall be at Tallahas-
see, calls for annual meetings and GER
tain publicity, was not amended.

OPPOSITION IS
EXPECTED FOR
SALES TAX BILL
Tax Expert Likens It to An In
come Tax Turned
Upside Down.
(Ry The Associated PRS. ),

WASHINGTON, May 27.-Distinct
progress was made in congress today
on tax and tariff legislation. The SEN
ate finance committee concluded open
hearings on tax revision, completing
the first stage Of the new tax bill
while the house ways and means COM
mittee began a final redraft of the per-
manent tariff BILL Chairman Fordney
said he hoped to have the tariff meas
ure in the house by June 10, and that
his committee would then begin con-
sideration of taxation.
The senate finance committee, which
began it's tax hearings May 8, had up-
der consideration first the Smoot sales
tax bill but, although early sentiment
appeared to favor it,, leaders said today
in both the house and senate. The ex-
cess profits tax, 1t was said, probably
would be repealed, as suggested by
Secretary Mellon.
Although the senate committee is
expected to recommend its removal, it's
defense before the committee by sew
eral tax experts was said by some
members to have made friends for it..
Several senators said it's defense today
by Professor Edwin r. A. Seligman, of
Columbia university, had deeply i'm
pressed them.
Mr.. Seligman made a plea for it's re-
tention as against adoption of sales
tax. The former, he contended, was a
tax on surplus and one of the few
kinds Of taxes which, in normal times,
must be absorbed by manufacturers
and not passed on. Competition had no
effect on the sales tax, he said, adding
that 1t would inevitably be shifted on
to the consumer and, therefore, become
practically an income tax turned up
side down.

'SEIzES ESTATE
DRAFT EVADER
The United States, Gvernment,
Takes Over Grover C.
Bergdolps Property.
ALSO INCLUDES ALL
HIS FUNDS IN BANKS
Slacker's Mother Must Vacate
Home in Which She Is
Now Living.
cay The ASSOC ,ted Press.)

PHILADELPHIA, May 27.-All OF
the property in this city of Grover
Cleveland Bergdoll, convicted draft
evader and army deserter, now in Ger
many, valued at about $850,000, was
seized today by Col. Thomas W. Miller
alien property custodian of the United
States. It consists of real estate and
money on deposit in four local banking
institutions.
The action was taken under a new
ruling which permits the government
to take over the property Of those who
have forsworn their allegiance. Berg
doll having escaped to Germany and
announced himself as German citi-
zen, made himself liable under this
law. Mrs. Bergdoll was given five days
to tur mover to the local representative
of the alien property custodian an ac-
count of all Growers property in this
country, both real and personal. II
this, is done, the remainder of the Berg
doll property will be returned to her,
If it is not, the entire estate will re-
main in the hands Of government Of
ficials, and in addition she will be liza
BILE to imprisonment Tor contempt. The
value of the seized estate owned by
Grover Bergdoll is estimated at $780,
226. Summarized, 1t was explained by
government officials, the seizure
means:
All of Bergdolps realty, mortgages
and bank accounts. including his share
in the Bergdoll brewery, will be ad-
ministered by the government, instead
of by his mother, who has held the
property under the power Of attorney.
All of his funds on deposit in banks
are to be administered by the govern
ment. Bergdoll is cut off absolutely
from his financial resources in this
country. If his mother tries to COM
with him in any way she will
make herself liable to a Jail sentence
If he wants his property he must re-
turn to the United States and file a |
claim. If he does that he must go to
prison. and serve his term. Every cent !
Of expense connected with the seizure
pocket.
Mrs. Bergdoll and her 8S year old
mother must vacate castle Bergdo1l,
Gorver's home here, from which he es-
capped when brought here to search
for the ''buried pot of gold.'
Under the war trade board license
as amended last Monday, Grover G |
Bergdoll is classed as an alien enemy, t
which deprives him OF any protest or
claim as an American citizen.
Mrs. Bergdoll cannot touch cent !!
Of her own money, or of Growers or
Erwin's until she has satisfied the gov
ernment authorities of the exact own
ership, and until Growers possessionsI
have been separated from those of
Erwin and her own. She cannot cash

sistants went to Castle Bergdoll" to-!
day and served notice that her Stacker
sons estate has been seized and that
she must vacate, she only said:
well, when do I have to move?"

TEMPERANCE BILLS
DEBATED IN HOUSE
Would Make Second Violation

IOffense.
By JOHN c. TRIcE.)

TALLAHASSEE May 27.--On re-
suming it's session this afternoon the
| house of representatives took up the
calendar of special orders and stuck
| to it all the afternoon, diverting from
| it only a couple of times for just lit
tie bit of time to do things that Were
almost necessary at the time.
The first bill on the calendar was
the McRae bill, 458, encouraging the
cooperative marketing of farm pro-
ducts, etc., which was being considered
when the hour for theN noon recess ar
rived. 1t was read the third time and
passed. 5S to 8.
Just here, Mr.. Taylor. of Madison
county, injected morion to make the
Madison county division bill a special
order for Monday afternoon at q
O'Clock. The house agreed to his re-
quest.
The next thing on the special orders
calendar was a bunch of alleged tenn
perance bills. 1t Is perhaps unneces-
sary to say that progress from that
moment on was very slow. 1t Is always
so.
The first was Mr.. Kyle's house bill,
406, to prohibit any person from drlv-
ing or operating any motor driven car
while under the influence of intox1-
eating liquors. 1t was debated for
more than an hour, and after reducing
the offense from a felony to a misde-
meanor it was passed, 4S to 4.
At A o'clock, Mr.. Stokes. of Bay
county, broke into the consideration of
the above bill to move that the claim
