Fifty Years of Missions.

Nearly half a million dollars worth
of gratitude was the amount of the
last thank-offering of the Woman's
Auxiliary of the Episcopal church.
This has been one of the most sue
cesful features in the program of the
Auxiliary which is celebrating it's
golden anniversary this fall in con-
junction with the Centennial of the
Domestic and Foreign Missionary
Society of the Episcopal church.
Thousand Of little blue boxes stand
upon dressing tables and mantle
pieces in Episcopalian homes to re-
ceive offerings whenever something
happens to be thankful for. Once in
are gathered and presented at a
greatgreat national service to which
representative of the whole church
are sent. The alms-basin in which
the offering is placed has an inter-
national history. TT is of silver with
a solid gold panel in the bowl and
was presented to the Episcopal
church by the students and faculty of
Oxford University, England, in 1852
During fifty years of it's life, the
Woman's Auxiliary has rolled up a
total of more than fourteen million
dollars for missionary purposes. 1t
has built schools and hospitals and
churches both in this country and in
foreign lands. In addition to its fl
nancial efforts, it has sent quantities

During the war it supplied such
things as stationary, literature and
Christmas cards to army chaplains,

to include social service and religious
educational activities as well.
To mark it's fiftieth anniversary,
the Emery Fund" is being raised in

MANY USES FOR GIANT KEEP
Among Others, Sea Plant Lends Itself
ExcelIently to the Making
Of "Hootch."

The aboriginal natives of British
Columbia and Alaska can always get
a suitable worm for distilling by pick
ing it out of the sea. 1t is furnished
by the hollow stem of the giant kelp,
and serves eXcellently for the making
Of ''hOOtch" from mixture of mo-
lasses and graham flour. The giant
kelp is anchored to the rocky bottom
by a root-like holdfast, from which
springs a stem that is sometimes 100
feet long. This stem is hollow for the
upper half Of its length, and tefmin-
2t>s in big bladder-like bulb from
which, as it floats on the surface,
fronds 80 feet long branch out. The
plant grows from spores and is an
annual. One variety is called +'sea
otter's cabbage" and is very plentiful
in the region of Puget sound. Another,
commonly known as "Sea pumpkin, y
fouriShes nearly as far south as San
Diego bay. Bulbs of the giant kelp
are used in the Puget sound region as
bottles to hold fish oil and by fisher
men as baitholders. The Eskimos
utilize the hollow stem as siphon to
empty water out Of their kayaks,
which, being decked over, are not
easily baled in the ordinary way. Also
from sections of the stem they make
wheels for toy wagons.

Popular japanese Amusement.

We of the western world "loop the

amusement parks; but in Japan the
people indulge in more gentle forms
of amusement. One of their most

The cars hang on stout cables that
are stretched across the bay and they
are operated by a motorman who
stands in front. The cars are made

Commercial Credit

Large users OF commercial money are
borrowing less. according to CONNER
eiai bankers and paper brokers, because
OF the continued liquidation of inven-
tories and lower prices. Another factor
IN the comparatively light borrowings,
compared with a Year ago, is the general
disposition of manufacturers and mer-
chants to get along with minimum Of
reserve stocks. pending a final read
jYstment of prices. Borrowing to carry
these seserve stocks is not expected to
increase to any extent for a long
period, since business in general ap-
pears to have drifted away from heavy
buying in anticipation of future de-
mands
Commercial money yesterday was
moderately active. Rates on CONNER

Trading Slowing Down,
Says Reserve Board
Steady Progress Toward Nor
NAL Probable, However;
Some Gains Seen

WASHINGTON. Nov. 80. - Progress
toward normal conditions throughout
the country has been continuous dur
ing November despite a relative "slow-
ing down" as compared with the pre-
vious two months, the Fedora. Reserve
Board said tonight in its monthly
business and financial review.
"On the whole" the board said, "the
best opinion now looks to a steady.
even if locally interrupted, progress
back to normal conditions, although no
boom is in sight"
During the past month, the board de-
clared, improvement in business con-
ditions was not so pronounced. For the
time being, it was explained, the peak
OF demand has been reached and passed,
while uncertainty regarding prices of
staples, particularly cotton, has inter
fered with trade buying.
Possible further reductions Of freight
rates, it was asserted. has apparently
tended to unsettla prices and to retard
industrial activity in some of the chief
manufacturing sections.

Government Bonds
Expected to ain
BY Tax Provision
Exemption for Interest on
Corporations Holdings
Provided i'm New Lcgisla-
ton Considered Favorable

Important new support FOR the t1Ar-
ket in United States Liberty bonds and
Victory notes is expected to be forth
coming III the future as result of the
new exemptions in the Federal tax
levy upon the interest on such Sc
curities provided for under the new
tan law just enacted by Congress.
The legal DEPARTMENTS of certain of
the large Wall Street investment
houses have interpreted the now law to
render the income derived by corpora
tions from Liberty bonds and Victory
notes and other government securities
held in their treasury exempt from all
Federal income taxes. 1t is held that
even the new 12h per cent tax on the
profits of corporations is not applicable le
to the interest received on government
securities. In other words, under the
new law corporations will be permitted
to carry an unlimited amount of gov,
ernment bonds on the income from
which they will not be taxed
Although the law is plain on this
point, in order to guard against any
possibility of misinterpretation the
Tax Department at Washington has
been asked for specific ruling, 1t is
the contention of those who have
studied the law that as the statute now
stands there is nothing to prevent a
man and wife Incorporating and so OBJ
tanning exemption on an unlimited
amount of United States government
bonds.
Section 23o. of the new tax law
says. THAT, in lieu of the tax mn
posed by section 2ao, of the revenue
act OF 1918, there shall be levied, col
lected and paid for each taxable ycal
upon the net income of every corpora
tion tax at the following rates: (a)
For the calendar year 1921, 10 per
centum of the amount of the net in
come in excess OF the credits provided
in section 236, and (b) for each calsn-
dar year thereafter, 121a per centum
of such excess amount
Section 236 says that for the pur-
pose only of the tax imposed by sec
tion 230: "The amount received as
interest upon obligations of the United
States and bonds issued by the War
Finance Corporation, which is included
! IN gross income under section 233, >
shall be allowed as a credit.
