Box Peace Award
Winner Loses
$4,000
By United Press Leased Wire

BY United Press Leased Wire
WASHINGTON, June 5.-Dr.
Charles Levermore of Brooklyn,
winner of the Box peace award,
probably will have to forego
that extra $4,000 he was to get
if the senate approved the plan.
Of course, the esnate may ap-
prove it as some future date but
not this session. There's not
the slightest chance now. A bill
embodying the plan has not
even be>n introduced by a SYM
pathetic senator and that is es-
sential to get the senate's opin-
ion of it.
Lcvermore has one other
chance to get the $4,000 and
that is by popular endorsement
of his plan in the nationwide
referendum. A provision was in
serted in the conditions of the
award to this effect, possibly in
view of the senate balky ac-
ton.
The senate investigation of al
legged propaganda for the Box
peace plan has completely
fizzled out.

There is probably no better index
to the building material situation
in the United States than the re-
ports of the Indiana Limestone
Ouarrymen's association with
headquarters at Bedford, Ind. The
first three months of 1928 indicate
that the situation is most excellent.
In that period $50 constructive en-
terprises specifying limestone were
reported to the association from all
over the country. This marks a
20 per cent gain over the corre-
spending period year ago. The
20 per cent decrease in price Of the
stone in 1929. it was officially
stated, still obtains.

LEGALITY OF TAX
 LIST PUBLICATION Atty. Gen. Stone to Make An-
 nOuncenent Late Today CABINET DISCUSSES IT
Members in Accord, Stone Says, Intimating That They Consider Publishing Data Against the Law White House Not So Positive,

Washington, Oct. 2s. - The fed eral governments attitude toward publication of income tax returns was further beclouded today after the cabinet had discussed the aues- ton at it's regular Tuesday meet ing. ..
 Leaving the cabinet meeting, At- torney General Stone said he had found his colleagues In general agreement and would make some statement late in the day. Asked whether he and Secretary Mellon agreed as to the legality or illegal ity of publication, the attorney general replied In the affirmative. MT. Mellon previously has taken the position that publication is H. legal.
 Some time after the meeting broke up. however, White House officials said President Coolidge was unaware of any decision as to a ruling for or against the legality of publishing the returns in news papers. MT. Coolidge was said to be of the opinion that government officers must enforce the law, but that everyone must be presumed innocent until proven guilty.
