500 inhabitants, and because of their
so 0inhabitants. and because OF their
isolation, through lack Of ships an
chorage, even their dialect has never
been studied.
The natives had only implements
and weapons of stone, and wood when
DIR. Deck first visited the island. They
showed great eagerness to barter
homemade articles for anything made
of iron.
The men are great fighters and
wrestlers. Their throwing spears have
points made of human leg and arm
bones, and tipped with bone splinter
designed to break of in the wound,
says DR.. Deck.
They seem to feel keenly the mo-
notony of their isolation and showed
a settled melancholy, both in their
faces and the cadence of their voices.
Their only sort of music, to which
they dance. is the tuneless beating
of log"
The teeth of flying foxes which
swarm in the caves on the island seem
to be the only form of currency known
there.

In many villages in the Ukraine the
peasants are reported to have organ

the peasants are reported endeavoring
to strengthen their anti-Bolshevik or

with their farms and villages.
Travellers say only few stores are

The following statement is issued
by collector of internal revenue, dis

porations.
Explains Tax.
The capital stock tax Is special
excise tax imposed on corporations
with respect to carrying on or doing
business" The tax on domestic cor
porations is 81 for each $1,000 or so
much of the fair average value of its
capital stock for the preceding year
ending June 80 as is in excess of
$4,000. Foreign corporations are re-
quired to pay tax at the rate of 81
for each $1,000 of their capital en-
ployed in the transaction of business
in the United States without the
benefit of the $4,000 deduction. The
tax is payable in advance, returns
filed in July of this year covering the
taxable year beginning July /, 1921
| and ending June 80, 1922.
Returns are required of every
! domestic corporation regardless Of the
par value of it's capital stock, and of
every foreign corporation irrespective
of the amount OF capital employed in
this country in the transaction of its
! business. Certain corporations not
organized for profit are exempt from
capital stock tax. The class of or.
CARNATIONS entitled to the exemption
is described in regulations so, re-
vised, copies of which may be obtain
ed at the office of the collector.
Exemptions Possible.
| Corporations claiming exemption
are required to file returns setting
forth their reasons for such claims
accompanied by evidence in support
| thereof.
If, because of lack of complete data
or other reasons than illness or alb
sence, it is impossible to file a com
plete return on or before July 81, a
| tentative return may be filed, report,
ing the approximate fair value in or
der that an initial assessment may
be made, thus avoiding penalty.
| Penalty for failure to file return
within the time prescribed is an added
assessment of 25 percent of the
amount due, unless it is shown that
the failure was due to reasonable
cause and not to neglect.
In addition to the added assess.
ment a fine of not more than $1,000
is provided for failure to make a re-
turn on time. For wilful refusal to
make a return, wilful evasion of the

ton requested by the commissioner,
or attempting in any way to evade
the tax and payment when due, the
penalty is fine of not more than $780,
600 or imprisonment for not more than
one year, or both.
With a view to the prompt collec-
ton of the capital stock tax, and for
the convenience of the taxpayer as
well as the government, the bureau
suggests that corporations submit
checks with the returns for the
amount of tax due. This method is

Little Progress Being Made

are as confident now as at any time
that sooner or later this new form of
taxation will come. They say it will
come because the country must have
the money, and this is the only way to
get it. They have the confidence of in.
evitability.
The new tariff bill is not very much
farther ahead and, except for special
interests affected. has not had much
more attention than the tax bill 1t
probably will be the middle of next
month before either bill will have
reached even that tentative stage of
progress that marks introduction into
congress.
The reason for the lack of interest,
the hesitation. and the slow progress
on these domestic matters lies in the
uneasy feeling. which increases daily,
that these things after all are not
primary but secondary, and that moth
ing we can do about them can be
very effective until after something
has been accomplished in the way of
an affirmative policy looking towards
the sterilization of Europe.

May APPOINT WOMAN
ATTENDANCE OFFICERS

INDIANAPOLIS, May 31.-Appoint.
ment of a woman as school attendance
oficer for Indiana, a new position
cre&ted by the last legislature, may
result from the drive being made by
various woman organizations, includ-
ing the League of Women Voters.
Among the candidates for the place,
the men far outnumber the women.
there being twelve men seeking the
place, while only three women have
made application. Selection has been
placed by the State Board Of Educa-
ton with a subcommittee Of three
members, State, Superintendent l. \.
Hines, Z. U. Graft, of Indianapolis, and
Clifford Fundenberg, of Huntington.
Meetings of the committee are
understood to have disclosed appar-
emily a majority sentiment for a
woman, but definite decision has been
deferred pending investigation Of the
candidates, especially their fitness for
the position.
Women organizations urging the ap-
pointment of one of their number de-
clared that the new law providing for
the officer was urged on the legisla>
ture by them, and that their support
of it apparently was big factor in
its enactment. No date, however. has
been set for definite selection Of the
officer.

BY MARK SULLIVAN

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 31.-No-
body can follow events in Washing
ton without observing again and again
that our foreign relations have trick
or getting right of way over every
thing else. Probably the most import
ant item of domestic affairs now being
transacted by the government is the
framing of the new tax bill But any
body who watches the senate finance
committee engaged in that work must
observe how tame 'tnd droning a
business it is compared with the ex-
cltement which flames up when AM
bassador Harvey says something about
the League of Nations, or when any,
thing else comes up that reminds US
OF our relations to Europe.
Nearly every day. for a part of the
day or for the whole day, the II mem
bers of the senate finance committee
, hold hearings and listen to arguments
from persons who have ideas about
, how our present tax schedule should
be revised. The people who come to
talk are ordinarily Representatives of
! special interests affected by the taxes
{ On one day. for example lawyers rep
resenting various insurance compan-
les gave reason why the taxes as thew
aHect these companies are inadvisable
i 1t is all perfectly legitimate and the
arguments for the most part are
sound.
Little Accomplished.
But no one can observe the time
devoted to it by II senators without
feeling strongly that it doesn't get
very far. The occasional persons who
come to argue with the committee, not
about special phases of taxation, but
the whole theory of it, are not as a
rule very impressive. There have been
few thoroughly sound arguments by
flrst class men. but for the most part
those who come to tell the senators
how they ought to do it are persons
also strongly moved by fixed ideas and
generally radical ideas.
Senator Penrose. the chairman OF
the committee. became rather irritated
the other day by the futility of it. and
announced that the hearings would be
eno'd shortly. The truth is, seventeen
senators who have listened for some
| weeks to this sort of thing have not
been much affected by it, Except fol-
individual work of few senators in
the privacy of their Offices, the making
of the tax bill is not much farther
ahead now than it was in the be
ginning.

DANCE HALLS FOUND
CENTERS OF CRIME
(By Associated Press

ST. LOUIS, May 31-An ordinance
placing all public dance halls under
licensed control of the city has become
effective here. The halls will be
regulated by the Department of Wei
fare.
Violations of the ordinance will be
punishable by a fine of from $25 to
$500
Passage Of the act resulted from in
vestigation of the crime wave" in
St. Louis several months ago by the
Board Of Alderman. Police officers
said much crime was traced to dance
halls.
The ordinance stipulates that a Ii
cense fee, ranging from $50 to $3.50 a
year, according to the size Of the hall
shall be paid to the city.
Persons under II years old are
barred from halls after p. m. unless
accompanied by parents or guardians
or by an adult with a permit from the
parents or guardians. Proprietors OF
halls who permits disorderly persons OF
criminals to gather in their halls OF
permit vulgar dancing or vulgar
language will lose their licenses and
be guilty of misdemeanor.

some instances they are reported
slow; In others, fair; and the situa-
tion as regards collections seems to
turn upon the ability of business men
to liquidate their inventories.
Auto Industry Improves
The motor industry apparently is
one of the first of the great manufac-
turing lines to rebound from the ex.
treme depression of December. De-
troit reports operations from 60 to loo
percent, a condition which is enabling
manufacturers who, bought materials
at high prices to work them up into
the finished product. In this way
they are permitted to liquidate their
merchandise without such serious
losses as seemed probable few
months ago. PRICES of cars have been
lowered again in several instances
this being made possible by the pur
chase of raw materials at lower
prices. One of the prominent bank
ers in Detroit estimates that in an
other 80 to 60 days all high-priced in
ventories will have been liquidated
At the same time the cost of labor Is
slowly coming down and efficiency in
creasing in cities like Detroit.
One outstanding feature in the mo
tor industry, as in other lines OF bust
ness, is that those who are showing
courage in the conduct of their bust
ness by forging ahead and manufac
turing or using up high-priced mate
rails on hand and replenishing at low
er costs are finding ready marke,
for their products, even though it be
at reduced prices; while those who
have adopted a more conservative pol
icy of manufacturing are necessarily
liquidating their inventories more
slowly. and consequently are having
difficulty in working out of the condi
ton in which they found themselves
at the close of last year. For instance
some of the leading motor companies
report production in excess of veal
ago; this is in moderate or low-pricec
cars. A factor from the dealers
standpoint is that there is more linn
tied market for used cars, due to un
employment and general depression
Accordingly, the dealer finds his cap
ital tied up in these cars, and is I'm
able to make further sales, involving
trade, until he has liquidated sucf
stock. Many of the steel contract:
to motor companies contain adjust
! ment clauses.
