said the Prosecutor, when asked about
Ioung's connection with the missing
Rodgers. II had heard various rumors
about the two having been together, and
as soon as I heard that they were sup

from his wife for some time, ana was,

for variously lengthy periods, so did
not think much Of it.
"The way the report first started
w2s that the body found sunday
slightly dcformed was first believed to
be that of Rodgers but was later posi-
lively identified as Garwood. When
the false report went out that Rodgers
body had been found, that started
people talking
Mrs. Margaret ITolstOn, a neighbor
of Rodgers, says she had seen Rodgers
and a man answering th" description OF
Young leaving Rodgers home on March
II. She said Rodgers told her they
were going to NOrristOwn on Il fishing
trip. She said Rodgers was eccentric
about banks and carried large amounts
of money with him at all times. AL
though he had not been working stead
lily, she said. he had made considerable
money around the neighbOrhOOd trim
ming grape arbOrs.
Mrs. Amanda Rodgers, wife Of the
missing man, who lives at Park and
Washington avenues, lIaddontield, is not
So certain that Young has killed her
husband. but she says she believes he
knows something about him. Mrs.
Rodgers, an aristocratic- looking, midi
dlc-aged woman. with bright blue eyes
and gray hair streakcd with gold, lives
in an attractive little home.
II believe my husband is dead" she
said, "and | feel very certain he has
met with foul play. If he has been
murdered | don't think it was outside
of New Jersey. believe they will
find his body in the ncighborhood. II
the body is found, there will be no
trouble in identifying him. because his
left leg is several inches short. due to
an accident he had about fifteen years
ago, while working for the I. G.. l., in
Manayunk.

him of murder. but | believe he knows

REVENUE RECEIPTS
UNDER ESTIMATES
Shrinkage Of $33o,ooo,ooo in
Three Months Disclosed by
Treasury Experts
EXPENSES ARE INCREASING
BY the Associated Press

Washington, Aug. Ga shrinkage
in three months Of $3.50 900, 900 in the
estimated Government income for this
fiscal year based on the present rove
nue. law is disclosed by the statement
recently presented to the House Ways
and Means Committee by Secretary
Mellon. The total income is estimated
now at $I,217. CAB 900. ms against the
estimate of 81 ,5IT ,Gi3 900 contained in
Mr.. Melons letter of last April 30 to
Chairman Fordncy.
In the same time the estimated OK
pcnditurCs have decreased only SILL
SGl,216 The estimated excess of dis
burScmrnts over receipts is placed now
at S33G G,3Go,5lT. Ms compared with an
estimate Of SIS. 234 ,O33 made by the
Treasury last April.
Internal Revenue Drop Seen
OF the total shrinkagc in receipts
Sl"O 600 900 is charged to the expected
falling off in internal revenue. largely
as result of the present business de-
preston. The remaining $500. 900, 900
is accounted for by n revision of the
estimated amount to be received in
iiiA'i'Nl VII lOiNlSll bbllSuNl'llHs III s'Ai
MELONS, letter of April 80 this interest
fund was placed at 500 ,O2G. 900 and
was based on the assumption that
several countries would make substan-
tial payments. The estimate now is
SO .O26. 900, most of which, it is said,
is expected to come from France.
Analysis Of the figures sent to the
committee Thursday by Mr.. Mellon
shows that returns from taxes for this
fiscal year under the revisiOnS sus-
grstcd by the Treasury would be
81, 900 900 less than the estimate under
the existing law. Miscellaneous re-
ccipts would 10 $50 600 900 greater un-
der the revision than at present but
it is estimated that there would be n
So. .O00, 600 decrease in the returns
from corporation income and excess
profits tax if the latter tax were re-
pcalcd rs of last January ! and fiat
corporation income tax of 10 per cent
substituted.
Treasury Experts Estimates
If the repeal were made effective as
of next January |, however, the esti-
mated return from all taxes would be
so, 900 900 greater than under the
existing law as the returns from the
corporation income and excess profits
tax WuIu Dc HppTONlHlulCIN lut same as
under the existing law.
1t is estimated by Treasury experts
that under the law as it now stands the
CORPORATIONS would pay total of
81. 81. 600 900. divided $500, 600, 600
profits tax and $l5G.OO0,O 900 income
tax. Under the revision suggested ef-
frctivc last January |. the corporations
would pay 81 .O7O, 100000. divided
Sab 900, 900 profits tax and $6J7,
900 900 income tax. Should the re-
vision be made effective as of next Jam
nary / the corporations would pay the
same amounts as under the present law.
