vision and simplification to the

Lawyers Disbarred
Frauds against the Government
and taxpayers are shown in the
fact that eighteen tax lawyers have
been disbarred from practicing be-
fore Treasury units, charged with
various violations Of the law and
Treasury regulations. Secretary
Mellon has issued an order prOvid-
Ing for the publication OF the

May Reclaim Charter If

They don't found" towns in Utah
they find a likely looking copper or
coal vein, mine it for a season or two,
and the town just sort of happens as
an accessory to the mine. When the
vein peters out a motley h~odge-podge
of wooden shacks crumbIe and tumble
down the mine shaft and another
town" has faded from the bronze
landscape of the Utah hills.
That accounts for the message that
department headquarters Of the Amer
lean Legion received from Mohrland,
Utah, recently, which read: "AIl
records and the charter Of MohrIand
post Of the Legion are being forward
ed to headquarters. All affairs of the
post have been settled; we ask that
the charter be suspended without
prejudice. In the event the mine re-
sumes operations the post will surely
become active again. Address no re-
ply to Mohrland; the post office has
closed shop"
