Taylor was murdered.
The detectives in this instance
were Under Sheriff Eugene Bisculse
and Deputy Sheriff Frank Dewar.
The sheriff's Office is the one OF
three OF the clty's official crime in
vestigating agencies which believes
something may be gained by keep
ing in touch with the chauffeur as
new information is received.
There Is nothing to indicate that
the Sheriff's men are any the wiser
as a result OF the session with Lewis
with the same apparent frankness
that has characterized his demean-
or from the start. Lewis told ex-
actly the same story that he gave to
the District Attorney. just after the
murder. He told OF driving Miss
Normand to the apartment court in
South Alvaredo street, of reaching
there about 7.15, OF seeing Miss Nor
lmand disappear into the court in the
direction OF Taylor's home, OF her
reappearance with Taylor after about
lhalf an hour, OF her chatting with
Taylor for moment at the curb
and OF the actresses waving good-by
as the car moved off.
He also told how Harry Peavey
Taylor's butler. left the house while
Miss Normand was still there. and
OF stopping to pass word with him
| beside the automobile. This CON
versation. Lewis said. was brief. for
as he comes from the South, he ex-
planned. It Is not his habit to ex-
change idle gossip with Southerners
OF darker due.
Divis pointed out just where the
car stood and where Miss Normand
lalighted. He then repeated his dis
claimer OF any knowledge Of the
shooting or OF any possible motive
for IL. Taylor, it is believed, was
killed within the half hour after
Miss Normand left his home. II is
because she was the last person. with
the exception OF the murderer. to see
him alive, because of the finding OF
her innocuous letters in the Taylor
home. and because OF her long stand

The President explained that the

lies in the cash payment, as there is
no serious problem in beginning the

We're calendar SIaues; He Would Free Us

BY NEA Service
VANCOUVER.-What day OF the
month is today?
Answer quickly now without look
ing at the calendar.
Seven chances out OF ten you
can't do III
on what day OF TIE week did the
18th OF the month fall?
Nine chances in ten you can't an
swer that
Those two little tests prove that
you-and all the rest Of us, too-are
slaves to the calendar.
Up here there's a scientist who's
spent twenty-seven years OF his life
trying to free us from calendar
slavery.
And now he thinks that victory Is
lust a few years-or possibly a few
months-ahead.
This scientist is Moses B. Cots
worth. He's one Of the worlds best
known statisticians
Plans Calendar Reform
He's devised a new calendar
known as the yearal calendar.
It provides for 13 months, each
month with 2S days. to supplant the
present cumbersome system Of IL
months with 80 or 81 days.
Every month in this new calendar
/ begins on Sunday and ends on Sat
urday and has four even weeks.
The thirteenth month is known as
Sol" and is inserted between June
and July All other months have
the same name as in our present
calendar.
But l3 months OF % days make
only 364 days and the year has 365.
So Cotsworth would make New
Year Day a special day, without
any name or date, inserted between
the end OF one year and beginning
Of the next.
This would be a holiday the world
over and would be the necessary
extra day to bring the number OF
days to 1855.
It's Advantages
And every leap year Cotsworth
would insert another extra day
Leap Year Day-without any name
or date That would be a holiday
too
Cotsworth says his calendar
would have these advantages;
/ One-You'd always know what
day date falls on in any month OF
in any year. Thus, the first always
falls on Sunday, the second on Mon
day. and so on. You wouldn't ever
need a calendarl
Two-Movable church feasts, al
Easter. would always fall on tn
the same date.
But the calendar has disadvan
tages for the superstitious. II ha
la months-an alleged unluck
p number-and every 18th Of tn
month falls on Friday.

BANK TO WITHDRAW
FROM CLEARING HOUSE
Nassau National Joins TDo
Other Institutions.

The Nassau National Bank announced
yesterday its intention of Withdrawing
tomorrow from membership in the New
York Clearing House Association. This
step follows similar action yesterday on
the part of two other large Brooklyn
financial institutions. the Peoples Trust
Company and the Brooklyn Trust Com
pany, and leaves no strictly Brooklyn
bank in the Clearing House Associa-
ton.
The resignation of the Nassau Ma
tional Bank Is based on the same COM
plant that the other two banks made.
that the Clearing House had fixed max
imum interest rates on deposits under
the rates now being paid in Brooklyn.
The withdrawal of the Peoples Trust
and the Brooklyn Trust. leaving them
free to pay whatever interest rates they
see fit. practically forced the Nassau
National Bank TO follow suit The
Brooklyn banks are now paying per
cent on large deposits whereas the new
schedule of rates fixed by the Clearing
House permits the payment of only "a
per cent.
Francis l.. Hine. chairman of the
Clearing House committee which sug-
gested the changes in interest rates. said
yesterday that he had heard of no con-

citation by Manhattan banks. He said
that most bankers regarded the action of

Dollar Value of Sales Of Ten

May sales were SO per cent. larger

sales were 2.3 per cent. larger than In

sales was attributed by many mer-
chants to the lateness of Easter. but
no such unusual factor was present to
account for heavy sales in May. The
favorable comparison the sales of these
two months make with the correspond

part by the fact that the 1921 sales at
this period OF the year were in some
