Formal demand was made on Sheriff
Tom Selman yesterday for the $1,000
reward offered for the finding of w. D.

were missing for 10 days. The men,
handcuffed and tied to tree, were
found Sunday by Jim Thomas, noun
taineer.
Thomas yesterday told the sheriff
that while he was in no particular
hurry for the reward, he was being
criticized for not making claims
for it. Selman replied that he was
not through investigating the story
of the men that they were kidnapped
and held prisoners. and that he would
not turn the money over at this time.
Bowman and Mason, who were in a
bad plight when found, have been re-
leased from the hospital. They claim

20 PER CENT TAX CUT
FAVORED BY TINkHAM
Advocates Using Interest on Fund.
ed Debts, But Not Principal,
for Reduction Plan.

President Coolidge's plan for a gen
eral reduction of taxes can be carried
out to the extent of 20 per cent cut
in the Federal levy. according to Rep
resentative George Holden Tinkham
of Massachusetts, a member of the
House appropriations committee. Ad-
vocating the funding of foreign debts
to the United States, Representative
Tinkham says:
Interest payments upon the fund
ed debts may be applied to tax reduc-
ton, but payments of principal shall
be used to reduce the national debt.
IF the foreign debts now unfunded
are funded in accordance with the
terms of the British settlement for 60
years the annual interest payments
would be $500, 600, 900 to $3.50, ,0O0, 900,
or about 20 per cent of the total Fed
eral income tax per annum and about
10 per cent of the total annual Fed
eral taxes.
when all foreign debts are funded,
about 81 900, 900 900 would be paid an
nually on account of principal. Ap-
plication of this sum to the reduction
of the public debt would also reduce
taxes"

While the Detroit, Toledo and Iron

The entry of Ford into the coal

Special Dispatch to The Star
PHILADELPHIA, April 30-The
ramificationS of the Federal law gov
erning operation of coal mines by coal,
carrying railroads bid fair to have a
most important bearing on the coal
situation throughout the country.
This is due to the fact that while the
Federal statutes prohibit railroads
from owning coal properties, or, what
is equivalent, prohibits them from
transporting coal from a mine they
own, there is nothing in the law which
prohibits an owner of a coal mine
from owning a railroad and shipping
coal over it.

been heavy sales of Lehigh Coal and
Navigation Co. stock to New York
and Philadelphia interests. This is
construed here to mean that control of
the Oldest of the anthracite operating
companies is soughtaswith d view to
including the property in one of the
proposed railroad consultations.

While the Lehigh is essentially a
coal operating company, it is heavily
interested in transportation by canals
and rail lines. Its collieries have a
capacity of 100000 tons annually.
Its canals cover 100 miles. running TO
the Delaware and Schuylkill Rivers.
Its chief railroad property is the Le-
high and New England, 29661 miles
long. The latter is an important link
in the all-rail route for anthracite
from Pennsylvania to New England
and would be of value in contemplated
rail mergers.
The company was made party by
the Government 10 segregate the
anthracite properties from the anthra-
cite carriers, but came through with
its holdings intact. Its position with
respect to the law makes 1t a most
desirable acquisition, even if new
owners should voluntarily decide to
segregate its mines.
