LAND BANK BONDS
ARE TAX EXEMPT

In these days when the poor tax
payer has been perspiring over his
income tax returns many a one has
cursed his luck that he had not taken
advantage OF the opportunity to buy
tax-empt bonds. Attention has been
particularly attracted TO the bonds
Of the Federal Land Bank which
have just been given a complete bill
OF health" by the Supreme Court OF
the United States.
Interesting tables have been pre-
pared showing the value of this ex-
emption 20 taxpayers. particularly
to those paying heavy taxes. With
out any regard TO the value OF eX-
empton from State. county. mu-
nicipal and other local taxation,
which these bonds possess, "A man
with net taxable income Of slo,-
600 would have to secure Sos e.
from some other investment prob
ably not so well secured. and SUBJ
ject 90 Federal taxation. 10 get the
same return from his investment as
the N |N MFA ANAAAAAtN AZ NAAA AN'NNt NI
Land Bank SO bonds assuming that
those bonds are obtainable at par.
The advantage increases with th'
taxpayers income. Thus compared
with taxable securities Federal Lane
Bank bonds yield 6.17eo to "A mar
with s25.O0O income. - y e. to the
possessor OF an income OF 100000
and TO the happy possessor Of q
100000 income 1867.
Nor is this liable TO change very
much for some years 10 come. for
while there may be some relief in
the future from large surtax levies
the very unoconomic Excess Profits
Tax IS likely 20 go first. and when
the reduction on high surtaxes takes
place the bonds will still yield a rela-
lively high rate to those whose in
comes are large.

LOOMIS'S OLD
DIARY is SAVED

HONOLULU. T. H., April 6.-The
Press Congress OF the World. which
will open in Honolulu in October Of
this year. will hold its sessions a
stones throw from the spot where
the first printing was done west OF
the Missouri river almost 100 years
ago. The old coral building where
the Ramage press, brought from
Boston by Elisha Loomis. turned out
it's first work on January /, 1922,
still stands on King street. Homo
lulu's main thoroughfare. II is but
few steps from the Iolani palace,
Of monarchy days, now the capitol,
where the press congress will con-
vene.
Entries in the diary OF Elisha
Loomis. which is preserved here,
show that he and his precious print
ing apparatus left Boston on the brig
Thaddeus, which carried the first
Christian missionaries 10 Hawaii,
and landed in the islands April 2,
1920. LOOMS. who was born in
Middlesex. Yates county. n. Y, in
December, 1888. says in his diary
that he started setting up his press
in Honolulu in December Of 1921,
and on January 1, 1922, this entry
appears:
This day commenced the first
printing that was ever done at these
Islands. Governor Cox was present
and printed the first sheet"
The governor referred 10 was the
Hawaiian governor OF the island Of
oahu, on which Honolulu is situated.
He had been a warrior chief in the
armies OF King Kamehameha the
Great. who united all the islands
under one crown.
Loomis's press was used princi-
pally for printing educational mat
ter for instruction of the Hawaiians
by the missionaries, but an entry in
his diary in March, 1922, shows that
at that early date the king had real
lied it's value and had sent him two
royal DEGREES TO be printed for pro-
mitigation.
The first newspaper turned out in
Hawaii were printed in the Hawaiian
tongue adapted TO English letters,
one at Lahainaluna Island Of Maui.
called Ka Lama Hawaii. or the Light
OF Hawaii. and the other at Homo
lulu, called Kumu Hawaii, or the
Foundation Of Hawaii.
Both OF these paper appeared in
1894. From that day the press Of
the islands has grown until II en-
braces papers in Hawaiian, English,
Portuguese, Chinese, japanese, Cor
san and Filipino.
The press that made history and
laid the foundation OF educational
work in Hawaii is in the Oregon His
torical Museum at Portland.
