Five stock statesmen Of United Auto

in Doylestown and vicinity, took no
chances with the fates when they re-

stole softly out of the Doylcstown Ho.

headquarters three weeks, and glided
away in two automobiles. Doylestown
folk slep on, unaware that the United
Guaranty Corporation men who had sold
$50. 900 worth of stock in their midst,
were racing away without so much as a
good-by or thank you.
The get away was made at 6 o'clock
last Friday morning. The statesmen
might have waited for the train which
leaves Doylestown for Philadelphia at
the holders Of the stock that they were
In a great hurry and preferred speedy
automobiles to the slow, rheumatic
movement of the DOylestown local.
Prominent Men "Stung''
Some Of Doylcstown's most proml. !.
nent citizens were stock purchasers.
They include A. n. Hellycr, an au.
tomobile dealer Joseph Musselinan,
dry goods merchant Allen Zetti, pres
ident of the Board of Commissioners OF
Bucks County. and Harman Yerkes, a
former Judge.
Mr.. Hellyer invested 5000 and Judge
Ycrkcs $1,000. The balance Of the $50, :
600 worth of stock sold was bought BY
farmers. workers and merchants In and
around Doylestown.

Autos crew swooped down on Doyles.

Mr.. Hellyer in his Office. But in a
couple of weeks Mr.. Hellyer's sls-
picions became aroused aud he de-
manded a statement Of the financial af :
fairs of the company. This was not
forthcoming and he elected the tenants.
According to townspeople, l.. W.

crew, was very affable fellow. Be

hours he knew most everybody by their
first names, and addressed them SO

Investors Besiege Hotel
When news OF the failure reached
Doylestown, investors were frantic.
Some Of them. including several small
farmers, had invested the savings of q
lifetime in the project. Ten or more
distracted investors besieged the Doyles.

morning.
The fleeing salesmen left behind them

congratulations the company was
treated to some rare music by one oi
the ladies present, Then lunch was
served typical wedding lunch,
after which the happy couple left fol-

A unique feature of the occasion was
a demonstration by the high schoo

May they live long and happy life

and equipped with view to the health
and range of the fiocks and all of these
houses are properly ventilated and
have patent automatic brooders to
keep the chicks warm. Houses are
closed regularly and insecticides and
disinfectants keep them from disease
and disaster. Automatic feeders are
used and scientifically mixed and test
cd out food for the various stages and
ages of the chicks are fed. 1t is real
study and g scientific business and
Mrs. Mccormack has seemingly solv-
ed the knotty problems of the raising
OF the chicks with the least possible
loss and the production and market
ing feature of the eggs. Every egg is
candled and packed in individual car
tons of one dozen each, labeled, dated,
sealed and shipped to private trade
that pay considerably above the mar
ket for infertile guaranteed eggs. The
reputation and demand in st. Louis
for Mccormick eggs are established.

Increasing the Offices While Promising
Reduction.

Discussing the bill which provides
for increasing the number Of internal
revenue districts from 81 to "a, in
volving an additional expenditure an
nually of $50O,00O, Representative
Eugene Black (Dem., Texas), point
edly called attention to the fact that
this increase is not only in violation
of Republican promises of economy,
but is made at time when the trans
actions in the Internal Revenue De-
apartment have fallen off 20 per cent.
He said:
"We reached the peak of taxation
in 1921. In that year the Internal
Revenue Department handled 20,-
100000 transactions; that is the filing
OF a return, either income tax or ex-
cess profits tax or sales tax return,
or a payment or quarterly payment
of income tax, excess profits and
other taxes. Tt is estimated this year
there will be something more than
16, 900, 900 transactions, decrease of
20 per cent in the routine business of
the office from 1921, and yet after we
have passed the peak OF taxation,
after the department has carried the
heaviest load of detailed transactions,
it is proposed to increase the number
of internal revenue offices by 10.
Gentlemen, you forget that the Re-
publican Party in 1920 promised the
people economy in your platform,
and not only that, but some of your
most vigorous and extravagant ora
tors said, Put us in powder and we
will abolish half of the Federal Offices
Now that you have been entrusted
with the power, what are you doing?
"Why, you promised the people
bread, and now you are giving them
a stone by such bills as this and the
one you recently passed to increase
the number OF Federal judges. The
people are already concluding that
there is too much rattling of the
dishes among you Republicans for
the fewness of the victuals, and they
are going to express their disapprov-
al in no uncertain terms next Novem-

GAME SEASONS
MADE UNIFORM

Hereafter 1t will be impossible
for a hunter to enjoy two or three
different hunting seasons In Ore
gon. The State Game Commission
passed a ruling last Monday AFTER
noon whereby all seasons In Ore
gon will be uniform. Ever since
the coming Of the automobile. it
has been an easy matter for a
hunter to enjoy the open season
In his own county and then motor
a hundred miles or so to another
county where the season had Just
opened. State game wardens often
found the law very irksome to
them when they would find a man
with bag OF game and were help
less before the law because the
hunter maintained that he had
secured his game In some adjoin-
Ing or nearby county whore the
season was still open.
The commission has had the
change in mind for at least a
year and according to their ruling
the open seasons for the different
kinds of game are as follows:
Deer, season opens August 20
and closes Nov. 1.
Grouse and Native Pheas ants,
Season open August 20 to septem-
ber 20.
Sage Hens. season open October
Chinese Pheasants and Quail,
15 to October 81.
season open October Is to October
81.
Prairie Chickens In counties
where there Is an open season,
Oct. Is to Oct. 81.
Louis Bean, newly appointed
game head, presided over his first
meeting In that capacity. other
members OF the commission are:
George III. Kelly and 1. N. Fliesch-
ner, Portland; Blaine Hallock,
Baker; and NJ. Lynch, Redmond.
