Sparta Inmates to
Training Schools

Madison, Wis. Inmates of the
state public school at Sparta can be
committed to one of the Wisconsin
training schools for the feebleminded
by the Judge OF the county court of
Monroe county, although the persons
committed do not have legal resi-
dence in that county. This was the
ruling given today by Attorney Gen.
eral Herman l.. Ekern to the state
board of control
The board informed the attorney
general that number of children in
the school were found to be feeble
minded and that they came from sew
eral counties. Commitment expenses
would be reduced by having the chill
dren sent to the training schools by
the Monroe county judge rather than
by judges in the counties of which
they are legal residents, the board
said. The opinion was written by j,
F. Messerschmidt, assistant attorney
general.
Another opinion written by Nj
Messerschmidt held that special dairy
and food inspectors are subject to the
civil service regulations. 1t was Civ
en- to j. Q. Emery, state dairy and
food commissioner.

ARREST COUPLE

j. ScOIeriO and T. BOnogliO
Arrested on Complaint
OF Two Girls.
DENY THE CHARGE

Jerry Scolerio, 854 Garden street,
and Tono Bonoglio, 800 Pearl street,
pleaded not guilty in the municipal
court this morning to the charge OF
disorderly conduct. Their cases were
continued until Friday at 100 p. m.
The young men were arrested by
Police officer Meurer and Captain
Alexander of Troop E on Tuesday
afternoon. They were charged with
disorderly conduct, but the case arose
out of an alleged "mashing" or an
noyance of two girls by the men.
Trying to Help Them.
This morning the two defendants
tried to tell the court their story, but
the Judge indicated that at this time
he was interested only in the plea
of guilty or not guilty. and that he
would hear testimony later.
eve met the girls at the American
Brass company, that is in front" said
BonogHo. "They had come here from
Lacrosse they said, and were looking
for work. / took them over to the
Frost company Office, and Scolerio came
tpo. We waited until they came out,
and then we took them over to a
drug store where we treated them to
ice cream. That's all"
But you are said to have invited
them to your home. Is that true p
zone of the girls wanted to write
letter." said Scolerio, "and they had
no place to 60, SO ] said they could
come over to our house"
Captain Alexander of the employ
ment office of the American Brass
company, had slightly different YER
sion, and his story was interesting,
showing the guard thrown about young
women employees.
"The arrest was made right in front
of the employment Office" he said.
''We saw these two fellows hooking
on to the girls, and one of them is a
fellow we have been watching for
some time. We will not stand any an
noyance of women, whether employed
here or just coming to seek employ
ment."

TAX COMMISSION
WOULD TAX DIVIDENDS
Report Shows Commissioners Favor
New Plan Suggested in
Proposed Tax Bill.

Madison, Wis.-Repeal of the per-
sonal property Offset and of the pro-
vision exempting- dividends from tax
alton are advocated by the Wisconsin
tax commission in it's annual report.
These two recommendations, embodied
In the administration tax bill now be-
fore the legislature, are the princi-
pal targets of attack by opponents
of the measure.
"For the fifth time the commission
recommends the repeal of the per-
sonal property tax offset provision"
the report says. "This provision, as is
well known, permits the taxpayer to
use his personal property tax receipt
in payment of his income tax.
at is believed that the Offset pro-
visions and the provisions exempting
dividends from taxation were inserted
in the law at its inception as mere
expedients for the purpose of dis
arming opposition to its enactment by
making it as. inffectual as possible
while retaining the semblance of in
come taxation.
Nov that opposition to income tax
alton has practically ceased, and it is
strongly entrenched in public favor,
it is unnecessary to longer retain
these expedients to insure its perma-
nence. Attention may now very prop
erly be devoted to perfecting the law
by eliminating the defects that nat
urally found place in it in its ex-
perimental stages"
The commissions figures show that
the personal property tax had offset
Dc per cent of the aggregate income
tax since the law went into effect in
1918 The offsets amounted to $42,-
962 .145.19 in that period, cash collec-
lions of income taxes to $52,0S0, 304.63,
and the total tax to $95,042, 449.S2. In
1924, the offsets amounted to $5,O76,-
511.17, or 43.5 per cent of the entire
tax. The cash collections were $780,
26675 and the total tax $T1,665, 777.92.
The commission also urges that all
dividends, except bank dividends, re-
ceived by residents of this state. be
subject to taxation. The present ex-
emptions, instead of avoiding double
taxation, make it possible to avoid all
taxation, the report says.

Parents Urged to
Register Births

The Kenosha kindergarten depart
ment of the public schools urges Ke-
nosha parents to be punctilifNs. about
registering their children's th GER
tifcates, to help them later in life.
An article sent out by the depart
ment today is as follows:
''Is your child's birth registered"
Every child should have a birth
certificate properly registered at the
office of the register of deeds to prove
his right to the following: school en-
trance, working papers, insurance, a
vote, marriage, passport, and protec-
tien in foreign countries as an
American citizen.
"If your child's birth is registered
properly with names correctly spelled
and dates right, it will be possible for
him to get certificate later, when he
may be in great need of it."

NEW.


This ought to be good news for
everyone. General American Tank Car
announces a new type of milk tank
car which will revoIutionize wholesale
transportation of milk.
Freight cars are equipped with two
glass tanks with combined capacity of
5000 gallons. These are completely
insulated and equipped with refriger-
ating systems and are easily loaded
and unloaded through a pipe.
Under the present method, the five
gallon can is the medium Of convey
ance. The farmer fills them and they
are loaded into the freight car. Three
cars are required under that method
to carry the 5000 gallons that can be
loaded into one of the new ones.
Transportation of milk long has
been a problem for farmer and dis
tributor. Methods of hauling it have
been archaic, compared to the hand
ling of other products.
Producer and consumer both will
welcome a method that promises
cheaper and more sanitary delivery
and less waste.
