MILLIONS FOR
UNCLE SAM
Result of u. S. Court Ruling
Stock Dividends Are
Taxable

Washington Stock dividends are
taxable when there is a reorganiza-
tion and this stock extends to the
new company, rules the United States
supreme court.
The decision means that John ID.
Rockefeller and Edith Hale Harkness
must pay the government $16,000,000
and the dupont Powder Company
must turn in about $24, 100000.
Stock dividends means that the
capital stock of a concern is increased
when profits are so large that they
may attract attention. Instead of re-
ceiving these excessive profits the
stockholder is given additional stock
upon which he pays no income This
practice has been upheld by the
United States supreme court.
The scheme has been enlarged to in
clude reorganizations, but the court
now holds that stock dividends, when
issued in this manner, shall be classed
as income, and are subject to the in
come tax.
The amount of money the defend
ants are called upon to pay the gov
ernment will give some idea of profits
that have been made during the past
few years.

of Senator Smoot's sales tax plan:
1T is said that Senator Smoot is
wondering who killed his cock robin,
in the form of sales tax. This is
not hard to tell. 1t was put to death
before born by the same men and in
terests, all over the country, who
fathered it. They belong to that larg-
er and widely distributed class of the
pass-along -the-tax with the multipli-
cation table. The folks outside the
circle are heartily tired of that sort
of tax which can be passed on to them
double, treble or quadruple.
1.-The proposed sales tax was theore-
tically unobjectionable. But it was
distinctly consumption tax and no
power under heaven could keep its adj
dition to price being no more than the
principal
"Other forms of taxation might be
worse, but had not been so industri-
ously advertised. There was perhaps
chance that some of it would be col
lected from them only once, or that
even a part would be paid but once
and that by the person against whom
it was originally assessed. 1t is one
blessing of even nuisance taxes that
those who pay know the exact
amount, pay it, and that is the end OF

MAY SUE UNIONS

Birmingham, Ala.-Coal owners are
iubilant over the passage of state
law which provides that factions or
suits may be maintained against and
in the name of any unincorporated or
ganization or association for any
cause of action for or upon which the
plaintiff therein may maintain such
an action against the members of such
organization or association"
This makes it possible to sue trade
unions as organizations.

ROCKEFELLER'S
UNION" MEETS
PREDICTED FATE

Denver.-The 1914 miners strike in
Southern Colorado was followed by
company union" approved by John
d. Rockefeller, Jr., and hailed by
President Welborn of the Colorado
Fuel & Iron Company as industrial
democracy. The company is Rookie
feller unit.
Tons of valuable white paper was
used to explain the new system that
would end strikes. Hard headed trade
unionists were called cynics and joy
killers when they predicted failure of
the new union" but their prophecy
has been fulfilled.
The company has reduced wages 80
per cent, in violation of an award by
the governments bituminous coal
commission, and in violation of the
state industrial law which provides
that 80 days notice must be given
before wages are reduced or workers
strike.
The commission took no action
against the company and the coal
miners suspended work. The COM
pany union" has been forgotten and
martial law proclaimed( as in the
days of Ludlow
The commission will appreciate in
formation whereby it can Jail these
workers without being censured for
not taking action against the COM
pany when it violated the law.

ufacturers have been outgeneraled in
an effort to smash the International
Ladies' Garment Workers. union. The
bosses broke their contract, and would
establish piece work, wage reductions
and the long work week. AS a result,
$4,000 employees suspended work fol-
lowing a referendum vote of 38,672 to
1862.
The broken agreement cannot be
answered by the employers, who are
making strenuous efforts to stem the
tide against them. They first attemp-
ted to conceal their purpose by claims
that their success would mean lower
prices for women's cloaks, but the
unionists destroyed this alibi by show
ing the small labor cost in these gar
ments. The bosses then insisted that
the union interiors with greater pro-
ductivity, but against the union put
the employers on the defensive by
showing that the joint production
comission, created under the agree
ment, was considering this question,
and that before its report was made
the employers precipitated the pres
ent situation.
The employers talk about ian
honest days work" which is referred
to by President Schlesinger of the
garment workers as commonplace
truism that can be applied in every
industrial dispute"
1.-The union will not allow the issue
to be sidetracked in such unceremon-
ious manner" said the workers repre-
sentative. "The union insists upon
the full performance of the existing
agreement, not for the enforcement
Of mere technical right, but as
matter of vital practical concern. In
the IL years of contractural dealings
between the employers association
and our union, the employers have
four times openly repudiated their
agreement with the workers"
To prove the union~smashing pur-
pose of the employers, attention is
called to this public statement by
them, on October 81 There will be
no conference, no negotiation. The
manufacturers have decided it. We
are turning the tables. That's all.

Now we are the DOCTORS"
The broken agreement cannot be
answered by the employers and the
union is driving this point home with
sledge hammer blows. Several thou
sand strikers have made settlements
with independent shops, which have
agreed to reinstate former condi-
tions.

Woman Attorney Seeks Judgeship In
 Children's Court

New York. May 6.-Miss CIarice Margoles- -Baright, brilliant young New York woman attorney, with of fees in the heart of the financial dis trict. has announced her candidacy for Judge of the Chi1dren'S Court.
 Miss Baright first put in her ap- pHcation for appointment to the bench of the ChiIdren's Court seven years ago. but her position has al ways been filled by a man. Since then another New York woman has been appointed to the police bench and Miss Baright feels that the time is opportEne now to re-enter her ap- pIication for the work closest to her heart, and for which she feels she is best fitted-the role of guiding the little ones along the long, long road that lies ahead of each.
 With her Knowledge of the law and her acknowledged levelness of head, friends of Miss Baright believe she could do much for New York's swarn1ing throngs of adolescents-for besides her head her heart is trained in the work she has chosen.

 Her advice to the young bride is worth repeating:
 Keeping house is just like any business-it is system that makes it successful. If the young housewife will study for 30 minutes each day for a year, the rest of her life will spread placidly before her, with no kitchen worries to mar it
 Let her plan her bills FIRST, then do her marketing. The other way around cannot be done sue cesSfully. Let her get my Key to Simple Cookery'--it is really a. primer cookbook and is simplicity itself I made 1t so for the reason that when I first started to cook all the cook books I found were too complicated for ordinary understanding.

 Mrs. Rorers stay has been short, but she has done much good since she has been here. Scores of women of the city have attended her daily lee lures and have derived much benefit from her words of wiSd on.

LETTER NAILED IN
 1899 ARRIVES NOW

Boston, May GA letter mailed from Boston to the State House thir- ty-one years ago has arrived here.
 It was addressed to David Pulsi- fer, Esq, State House, Boston, and the postal date, still very 1egible, was Boston, Oct. 5, 1889, 7:45 D. m.''
 It bore a light green colored two cent stamp, with likeness of Wash ington, an issue long ago abandoned.
 It had evidently reached Seattle in it's thirty-one-year trip, as it bore the date, Seattle, Wash, Ter minal Station, April IS, 1921"
 Postmaster Morris Jackson at the State House doesn't know, and never has heard of, David Pulsifer, Esq., so he turned the letter over to the Boston postal authorities, to whose care it was entrusted thirty-one years ago.

 "Perhaps the best way to tell the women of Bridgeport how to save money and energy is to tell them just how to do it.

This saves gas and time Potatoes the same way-I always cook enough for two meals, then warm them up or serve them some ether way for the second time. It's simple enough, and it does save money.

UKRAINE THE LAND OF
HORRORS.

The Jewish year began with a new
series of horrors for which this help
less country has been known for the
last three years. On the second day
of Rosh Hashanah (Sept. Ia, 1920 81
Jews were killed in Kamen-Kashinskll
near Kovel, and since that time peri
odical pogroms perpetrated by the
troops of the Polish D'Annuncio, Cen
eral Balachowicz, have shocked help
less Jewry, supposed to be in control
of the worlds affairs, almost weekly.
Herman Stolzman Of Winnipeg, Can
ada, who spent three months IN Rus-
STA, said on his return to London that
the list of Jews killed in the Ukraine
during the last three years comprises
100000 names, that 100000 peo-
pie died of typhus, that in ia towns
with large Jewish population not a
single Jew was left, that II towns,
mostly inhabited by Jews, were COM
pletely wiped out, that there are in
the pogrom area 100000 destitute
children of whom 100000 are orphans.
Max Nordau in letter addressed to
the chairman of meeting called by
the Federation of Ukrainian Jews in
London (Oct. ~ sums up the stu
alton in the following impressive
words: "The Ukrainian horrors COM
mitted against our people are un-
precedented in it's martyrology of
eighteen centuries. They leave the
massacres of the crusades far behind
them. They pass even the atrocities
of which the gang Of Chmelnitzki's
assassins and thieves have made
themselves guilty. We have proved
ourselves powerless to prevent these
blood-curdling crimes but we may at
least aid the ruined by showing them
that Israel has not abandoned them"
