In referring to the secoud-round
punch in which the Frenchman
staggered him, Dempsey said:
"If 1t had been half an inch lower

SANTA ROSA, Calf, March 13.-
District Attorney Hoylc and Sheriff
Boyes who returned here from cxamin-
ing the body of Lee Pope, 81, found
near the roadside 10 miles north of
Cloverdalc late Saturday, today were
convinced that Pope had been muir
dcrcd.
The young man who had been visit
ing his brother George Pope, prominent
mining man, had been missing for nine
days, during which relatives had con
stantly searched for him.
The body, found late Saturday had
evidently been carried about hundred
feet from the road, according to Off
GERS, who believed that elaborate pains
had been taken to create impression of
accidental death.
a partly burned fuse and a dynamite
cap had been placed near the body, but
Sheriff Boyes and others declared them
selves certain that Pope had not been
the victim of an explosion.
Officers were, however, facing a
battling situation in discovering any
motive for the crime, as all associates
declared young Pope had no enemies in
the district. Officials were not certain
how long Pope had been dead, and were
working in an attempt to solve his dis
appearance.

Fight Made BY
Pershing
United Press Leased Wire

WASHINGTON, March 13.-Reduc.
ton of the army from its present
strength of l57, 200 men to 115,000 men
was provided by the house appropria.
tions committee today in the annual
army appropriation bill, which it re-
ported to the house.
The action was taken over the OBJ
jections of both President Harding and
General pershitg, who desired II
strength of from 10000 to 10000.
Cut Would Save Millions
The cut would save $ll6,500,000 an
nuaily.
The appropriation recommended is
1921 722,SOS for military purposes, a re.
duciion of $1l9,d75,0 900 from appropri-
ations this year.
AS one of the principal means of
saving money, the committee demands
the return to this country of all but
800 of the $500 American soldiers still
ON the Rhine, the withdrawal of all
troops from China, return of all but
1000 soldiers from the Hawaiian Is
lands and return of all but 5000 from
the Panama Canal zone. This requires

MARCH Is, DEADLINE

A warning that the Bureau of Inter
nal Revenue is preparing to bring into
effective use its wellorSanized ma
chinery for rounding up income tax
dodgers was sounded today by Rex
Ragan. United States deputy tax col
lector for FL Centre, in statement
calling attention to the closing of the
time limit to file returns.
All income tax returns received later
than midnight, March Is, will be de-
clared delinquent and subject to penal
tv, Mr.. Ragan advised.
Income tax returns have been com.
ing in brisklv the past few days, Mr.
Ragan said today, and he expects but
little difficulty IN enforcing delinquent
penalties on the few who may hold out.
I'm Il statement today he said:
Within Il few weeks Il small army
of revenue agents will take the field
to search out delinqueuts. Full penal
ties will be exacted where it is found
that evidence of fraud exists. Mere
ignorance of the law will not be ac-
cepted as Il satisfactory excuse.
''in certain cases there is liability
for not filing returns even though no
TAX Is due; namely, Il married man or
woman who is "head of Il family, :"
must file, if his or her net income is
$1,000, although the exemption is $25OO.
Every single individual is required
to make II return if the net income
equals or exceeds $4,000, or the gross
equals or exceeds $500. This is re-
gardless of additional credit for de-
pcndcnts.
"ThOse who made reports in prior
wears, especially ranchcrs, whose in
come for 1921 was mot sufficient to
render liable, although not required by
law to file, are advised to do so, us
they thus place themselves on record
and may avoid future correspondence
with office and an investigation of
their books and records

ICNORESECRETARY
MELONS STAND
ON BONUS BILL

WASIiINGTON, March l3.-Housc
ways and means committee republicans,
wrathy at Secretarv of the Treasury
Mellon for his letter of advice on the
bonus, decided today to ignore him
and his recommendation and shove the
bill along through the house as sched-
uled.
The soldier bonus bill appears vir-
tually dead for this session of congress.
although the modified measure is
scheduled to be reported favorablv to
, the house today and probably will be
passed in the lower chamber on next
Monday, it is certain that the senate
will definitely delay it, The chances
are about ten to one that no action will
be taken by the upper chamber until
the next session which starts in De
cember.
The house ways and means committee
met today to put the last touches on
the certificate plan bonus bill and re-
port it to the house and the program
is to put it to a vote on the floor on
March 20. NM
Despite the fact that the bonus is
losing strength daily in the house, it,
passage there is held certain.
The senate, however, is busy with the
arms conference treaties and after
those are disposed of. it has the tariff
bill aud a vast lot of other important
legislation which must be passed before
adjournment.
In addition to the bonus being caught
in q legislative jam in the senate, il
was pretty definitely known today that
President Harding will call in admins
tration leaders if necessary and say
the word that will hold up the soldier
bill.

EVENTS

Los ANGELES, March 13.-Mada
lynne Obanchain requested John Beltor
Kennedy to take her to the Alexandris
hotel to dance, instead Of to Bevelry
Glen on the night of August five-th,
night young Kennedy was slain.
This unexpected feature of MAZDA
lvnne's trial for alleged complicit,
with Arthur G. Burch in the Bevelr,
Glen murder was brought out in Super
ior Judge Reeve S. court today when tn,
defendant was undergoing cross exam
ination. M
i told him | would rather spend tn,
time dancing than out at the Glen,
she said from the stand. ''But h,
coaxed and said we would only be out
there little while.
Madalynne was dressed in black
again today. The only touch of color
relieving her sombcr costume was .
pink rose.
Again today she denied any recollec
ton of visit to the district attorney 5
office on the morning after the
tragedy. Deputy District Attorney
keyes tried to shake her test mony, but
Madalynnc stood firm.
She asserts that her mind was
"numbed' for several DAYS after the
murder. The prosecution brands the
asserted amnesia as trickery to protect
Arthur c. Burch.
Madalynne S attorneys asserted to-
day they planned to place Fred Fran
son of Torrance, an employe of the Pa.
cific Electric Railway company, on the
stand.
FranSon will say that Burch was at
Long Beach, miles from the scene of
the midnight murder,'' in Beverly
Glen, at the time of the shooting. Fran
son s story, it was learned. is that he
met Burch driving the Dodge roadster
which the state has proven he rented on
the night of the shooting at crowded
corner in Long Beach.
