thousands OF ears. Police stations
hooked up with radio systems will get
vivid reports Of thefts. 1t Is possible

cars make immediate reports to head
quarters in their own towns, to spread
the alarm owe a radius Of several
hundred miles within four or five hours
after the theft. In this particular case
the stolen car is described as easily
identified, having a conspicuous stripe
around the body, initials on the doors
and other particular marks Of indi-
viduality. If it was stolen by a pro-
fessional thief it will probably be
changed in appearance, but the makers
numbers will remain. The public little
appreciates the skill with which stolen
cars are being traced. The other day
in this city a car was found and iden-

years before In a northern city, and
an arrest was made on a charge Of the
theft. Motor stealing has become so
frequent that 1t has been called one of
the leading American industries.

discourage a crime that menace

POOR MAN PAYS
BIGGEST SHARE
OF INCOME TAX
Little Relief in Sight for Per-
sons Who Earn
Salaries.

WASHINGTON, Aug. S.--Despite
the political successesof the progress
ives. the possibility CT relieving the
comparative poor of their burden of
the income tax is remote.
Investigations made by government
officials into the income tax statis-'
tics for 1921 show that the poor man
carries most of the income tax burden.
Without his taxes, the government
would have to go to some other form
of taxation. And the possibility OF
getting tremendous sums from the
rich is also remote.
The investigation revealed that to-
tai net incomes of $40, ,209,1
were reported for 1921.
OF this total net income which was
taxable, only $463.003,351 was re-
ported by those persons with net. in
comes of 100000 or more. There
were only 1852 such persons while
1851, 191 persons with incomes Of

A DAIRY EXHIBIT THE FOURTH

sOn the morning of the Fourth OF
July the Union Pacific railroad and
the Oregon Short Line will have q
special train at Blackfoot from sun
rise till ten o'clock to exhibit a car
load of purebred dairy COWS brought
from the best stock farm of Wiscon-
sin. They will be kept in palace
stock car and people can pass thru
and be shown.
There will also be a pullman car
of dairy experts with the train to
show the COWS and to give addresses
on dairying during the time of their
stay here. This train was fitted out
and brought west at the instance Of
the organizations seeking to get
dairy stock into Idaho, and the Wis
consin men listened to the requests
and they all put it up to the rail-
roads to help with transportation.
The train is scheduled to run to
Arco and Mackay, leaving here at
ten O'Clock in the morning, so all
persons interested in dairy stock and
in learning what they can Of the in
dustry and how to conduct 1t should
arrive early and receive all they can.
A proposal is now ON foot that the
state of Idaho, or organizations
working in it, shall prepare an ex-
hibit of its farm products and fit out
a special train to send back to Wis
consin to show the dairy men there
what we raise here and at what cost,
and see if we can induce lot of
their young men and women from
the farms to come out here and put
in with us in establishing the dairy
business here. Request Is being
made of the railroad between Wis
consin and Idaho farms, to pass this
train over their lines free of charge,
to help the good work along.
