Autos Found in Lake.

Raleigh, N. c., July 29.-The third
of a number of automobiles said to
have been stolen, was located by a
driver in the rock quarry lake, on
the outskirts of Raleigh late yester-
day. Graphing hooks have been at
tached to the car and it probably
will be pulled from the water today.
Two other cars were recovered from
the lake last week. The two machines
were insured.
Because of reports that evidence
of many crimes would be found at
the bottom of the rock quarry which
is owned by the state, solicitor Her
bert Norris recently requested Gov
ernor Morrison to order the place
drained and the state building and
g6unds committee was expected to
hold meeting today to determine
whether this shal! be done.

CHARLESTON POSTMASTER
FILLS SHERIFF VACANCY
Joseph M. Poulnot Succeeds Late Ell.
more Martin In Important
County Place.

County Place.
Charleston, July 2S.-Joseph M.
Poulnot was last night appointed
sheriff of Charleston County by Gov
ernor Cooper to fill the vacancy caus-
ed by the death of Capt. ]. Elmore
Martin, who had held the Office for
nearly a quarter of century.
. Mr.. Poulnot has had practical ex-
perience in the Office, having served
for twelve years as chief deputy to
Capt. Martin. He left the sheriff's Of
flee in the fall of 1913 to accept the
appointment as postmaster, President
Wilson naming him to succeed the
late Wilmot L. Harris.
Mr.. Poulnot has been postmaster
for two terms of four years each and
an examination to choose his success
sor will be held next month. In the
postofice, he has upbuilded the cir
Gle of personal and political friends
he had already made. -.
Mr.. Poulnot began work as book
keeper for the naval stores firm Of
Patterson, Downing & Co., later be-
coming agent for the concern. On its
retirement from business at Charles
ton Mr.. Poulnot took over the naval
stores business of VIM. M. Bird & Co.
staying with this housd until Sheriff
Martin appointed him chief deputy.
He was with the Bird establishment
for about ten years. =.
For many years, Mr.. Poulnot has
been regarded as one Of the political
leaders in Charleston. His friends
have been confident from the outset
that Governor Cooper would appoint
him, feeling that to some extent Mr..
Poulnot's elevation was logical.
It will be several days before Mr..
Poulnot will comply with the legal
requirements for leaving the post
mastership and taking over the duties
of county sheriff. However, it is his
intention to carry out these formal
ties as soon as possible.

CHICAGO PAPER WILL
HAVE AN ARTISTIC HOME


70 Tribune has announced prize of
900 to mural painters for the most
suitable designs for the embellish-
ment of the news room in its new
plant, Just north of the Ling bridge
in Michigan avenue.
Under the plans of the contest,
which will be held under the supervi-
sion of the Chicago Art Institute, the
designs to be submitted must por-
tray some important phase or episode
in the history Of journalism.
Ten free scholarships have been
offered by the institute to painters
wishing .t6 work on The Tribune de-
signs, in order that artists of small
means may not be excluded from par
ticipating in the. contest.
The walls of The Tribune local
room comprise three premier and nine
lesser panels. Of the three larger,
the greatest is 15 by 1S feet.
Among the themes which have been
suggested for these panels are the
bringing. in of the verdict in the case
Of TIE King VS.. Gender for libel, an
event of historical Importance in col
onal annals of the American people
and a victory for freedom of the
press; the sitting Of the American
congress in which the constitutional
amendments safeguarding the. liberty
Of the press were adopted; and the
pre-war conference in the old Tri-
bune Office in the late SOS between
Abraham Lincoln and the early edi-
tors of The Tribune concerning meas
ures which eventuated in the aboli-
ton of slavery. ~
Among the factors which the artist
will contend in the execution of his
design will be two lofty structural
pillars, many large and small win.
dows, lighting fixtures, bulletin
boards, paper lockers, telephone
booths, a monumental clock and pei
petual calendar. III,
The actual work, it is estimated,
will engage the services of five art.
lists for more than two years, and
these services will be paid for. The
plan has received the commentator
of virtually every noted mural paint.

W. B. Van Ingen, whose work
includes the decoration of the gov
ernment building in the Canal Zone
and Judge Lands court room in the
federal building in Chicago, declar
ed the Tribune idea Extraordinary
in that "the public is getting tired Of
the old conventional mural decora
tions."
"The people want their decorations
to tell story" he averred. In thi'
regard the paper has gone far aheae
of anything that has ever been con
ceived before" ,...... .-.

TOSENATE TAX
REVISION BILL
Fight Promised Between Con-
gress Bodies on Surtax
List.
ENTIRE PLAN ATTACKED

Special 20 Indiana Daily Times
and Philadelphia Public Ledger.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 11.-An effort to
fix the limit OF taxation on higher in
come at 90 per cent, as proposed by
the Senate, failed in the House yester
day just before the revenue revision bill
was sent to conference. BY a vote Of
200 to 1S3, the House placed on the table
8 resolution offered by Representative
Garrett Of Tennessee instructing the
House conferees to agree to the Senate
proposal on surtaxes.
Having previously agreed to retain
surtaxes only up to 81 per cent, the
House action throws into prospect
bitter fight between the two bodies in
Congress on the surtax schedule. The
conferees on the revenue revision bill
expect to begin meeting Immediately.
The Democratic resolution was sup
ported by twenty five Republicans. The
only Democrat voting against the resolu
ton was Representative Campbell of
Pennsylvania
When Representative Fordney (Mich.),
chairman of the Ways and Means Com
mittee, asked that the revenue revision
bill be sent to conference without instruc-
For the time, Republicans lost control
of the situation, and Democrats with
Western Republicans entered into a
broadside attack against the House pro-
posal to greatly reduce 'm1llionaire's
taxes"
Attacking the entire revenue bill rs
means for shifting the tax burden from
the rich to the poor, Representative Crisp
(Georgia) said the sum Of SJ0,0O0,0O0 In
revenue yield represented the difference
between limiting surfaces to 50 per cent
and 81 per cent. His assertion that all
Of the Republican conferees personally
favored the 80 per cent limit was not
denied.
The Republican conferees, Representa-
tIves Green Howa), LongwOrth (Ohio)
and Fordney (Mich.), protested against
being sent to conference with instruc-
lions" while Representative Mondell
CWyoming), Republican leader, assured
House members they would later have an
opportunity to vote on the surtax
schedule.
They said Democrats would obtain
control Of the situation by adoption OF
the Garrett resolution. Representative
Frear Of Wisconsin, Republican, warned
his party members to assent to Increase
surfaces to so per cent.

reason why II should not be DONE" Rep
resentative Browne Of Wisconsin, put in.
