Washington, June IS Rl--Million. aires are becoming more numerous in the United states, but their mum. Der still Is far short of tho high water mark of 1918 when 2Ug paid Income taxes. In 1928, the internal revenue bureau announced last night, 7i incomes of sl,OOO,0O0 or more were reported, an increase of seven over 1922.
 Tho millionaires paid taxes aggre- gatins $35,7ss,475, and the contri- buttons of 7.s9S,S47 other taxpayers brought the total for the year to s7s5.a62,I6b. This was about si57,- O0O,000 less than for 1929, the 25 per cent refund voted by congress being largely responsible.
 The bureaus statistics disclosed that taxable personal incomes in the United states in 1923 amounted to S26,336,357,s4S, or nearly s5.00O.- 100000 more than the 1922 figure.
 Those who paid tho income tax for 1a2S>comprised SEA per cent of the total population on July 1 Of that year, as estimated by the cen sus bureau. The figure for 1922 was 62 per cent.

DE PAOLO CHAMPION DRIVER
Victory in 250-Mile Speedway Race at Altoona Gives Him Enough Points to Lca1.

| Altoona, Pa, June 15 Rl-By his victory in the 250-mile automobile speedway race here Saturday Peter DePaolo gained enough points to give him the 1925 championship. Officials of the American Automo- bile association are expected to award the title to DePaolo before he leave next week 10 participate in the Grand PriX at Vernair, Belgium.
 Saturday's race was so close that a cheCk-up after the protest by Frank Elliot resulted in a change in the standing of the first three drivers to finish. Under the re- vision DePaolo was declared the winner instead of Tommy Milton, who apparently had flashed over the line a few yards in the lead. Then it was discovered that Milton had been credited with lap that should have gone to Elliot, with the result that Elliot was placed second and Milton third. Harry Hartz finished fourth.
 In explaining how the mixup oc- cured, Starter Fred Wagner said that four sets of scorers had checked up on the racers and that in the closing laps one set became confused and announced Milton as the winner with DePaolo second and Elliot third. When the other SCOT CTS were consulted the error was discovered.
