LEGION UNIT Of
6. ". GIVES Up
CHARTER
Dissension, Cause Of Auxili-
ary's Abandonment-Did
Much Good Work

The George Washington unit OF
the American Legion Auxiliary has
given up its ghost. it's fight for
existence as an entity and its
charter in the national organization.
1t was learned today.
When the unit was formed, more
than two years ago, debate rocked
the George Washington Post. The
Iegionnaires insisted they did not
want a women's auxiliary, and
Commander Thacker ". Walker,
charged with having authorized the
units formation, was ousted. Mrs.
Walker, incidentally, recently was
elected president Of the local dc.
partment of the auxiliary.
Although Major Walker was taken
back into the fold, the grumblings
and mutterings against the auxil.
larry persisted. And, now, in the in
terests of harmony, according to
auxiliary members, the charter has
been surrendered.
In the face of strong opposition.
the unit points to considerable
creditable work. including the ex-
penditure Of approximately $4,000
for welfare and relief work among
ex-service men. Mrs. Walker who
was a member of the George Wash
ington unit, has transferred her
membership to the Robley D.
Evans unit.

PROHIBITION IS
At CRUCIAL
STAGE
Church Council Issues Bulky
Report on Social and
Moral Consequences

The Federal Council of Churches
today began the publication OF a
&c, 900 word report on the social
consequences of prohibition in the
United States including the. moral
and political aspects Of the problem
as well as its economic and indus
trial phases.
The first section of the report
declared that the country Is now
witnessing the supreme testing
of prohibition and that mo one can
say with positiveness what the ulti.
mate outcome of this test will be.
mo cocksure criticism" said the
report. 'is warranted, nor is pes.
sinnism or defeatism justified by
the facts. Much seems to depend
upon the development of public
opinion in the near future"
The Reverend e. Ernest Johnson.
who heads the research committee
which prepared the report. said
that the study was undertaken "be.
cause the air is so filled with con-
Trajectory assertions relative to the
results of prohibition that this mo-
mentous issue seems in danger OF
being decided on the basis of par
tisanship and prejudice rather than
of intelligence.
The prohibition unit Of the
Treasury Department was criticised
in the report for it's methods in
issuing prohibition propaganda. ?
Prohibition publicity has suffer
ed much," said the report, from
careless and unwarranted infer
ences, which lead social scientists,
economists, actuaries and business
statisticions to regard with dis
trust, IL not with contempt. re,
ports that are given out with. a
view to fostering opinion favorable
to prohibition. Much Of the pub.
licity given out by the prohibition
unit of the Treasury Department
has been of this unfortunate kind.
On the other hand, much unjust
and misleading propaganda has
been put out for the purpose of dis
crediting prohibition.

DELTA MINISTER
is VISITING HERE

Mrs. I. J. TripD who, with her hus,
band for number of years lived in
Delta arrived Friday and visited until
Monday with Mrs. C. Gunsolus and
other Delta friends.
Mrs. Tripp suffered a severe loss

band passed away after a very brief
illness, and was unable to visit with
friends as she would have liked to un-
der other circumstances. The couple
were living at Hayes Center, Ne
braska, where Mr.. Trip had a pastor
ate, and he was assisting personally
with the building of a new church. In
lifting some heavy timber he ruptured
his appendix which caused his death
two weeks later.

Echoes of Worlds
Missionary Conference
By DIR. F. B. Palmer

DR.. F. B. Palmer, executive seCre-
tary of the Baptist state convention,
delivered an interesting inspirational
address at the Baptist church Sunday
evening, bringing message from
the recent Worlds Missionary confer
ence in session the first ten days in
February at Washington, ID. c
DIR. Palmer stated there were pres.
ent at the World conference 315 mis-
sion boards, 5000 registered delegates
1000 of whom were from the Orient.
During the year 1924 these mission
boards of various denominations in,
vested $7O,O00,OO0 in foreign effort
alone, the home field investment ex.
ceeding the foreign. The results
reached the past year were the
greatest ever attained in any one
year in the history of missions.
DIR. Palmer is visiting various Bap-
tist organizations throughout the
state in an effort to raise $4,000 in
fifty days, which will complete the
annual offering of 100000 for mis-
sions from the state Baptist conven-
ton.
DR.. Palmer went to Montrose Mon
day, where he attended a one-day ses-
sion of the w. S. Baptist Pastors
conference, Tuesday. While in Delta

year ending June 30. 1923, for the in
ternal revenue and customs collec
tions.
The summary shows that the Unit.
ed States internal revenue receipts
were s15,9Ss, SOS; customs receipts,
s20O,414; state taxes, s9.515. 900;
county taxes, S12.305,OOO cities and
towns, s11,O91OOO; and school. irri
cation and drainage districts, S16,O19,.
900; making a grand total from all
sources of S65,119,112. Included in
these totals are all such items as
state inheritance taxes. automobile
licenses and permits. poll taxes i'm
provement district taxes in cities and
towns, municipal licenses and permits
of all kinds The figures do not agree
in all instances with totals published
by other departments due to the fact
that Denver county returns are in.
cluded in Denver as a city, their
boundaries being coordinate, and
general school taxes which are collect.
ed by the state and distributed to
counties are included under county
totals The differences merely repre-
sent a different distribution Of totals.
An analysis Of the figures show that
2455 per cent of the sG5,119.112 wag
for federal taxes and OBJ per cent for
customs dues The distribution for
the state and its subdivisions was
1861 per cent for the state; 1890 per
cent for the counties; 1903 per cent
for the incorporated places and 2lGO
per cent for school, irrigation, and
drainage districts. This shows that
the state, exclusive Of federal Gus.
toms duties, secured the least sum
for governmental purposes Of any of
the divisions, while school, irrigation
and drainage districts revenues were
the largest
The per capita figures were $1G.41
for United States internal revenue;
20 cents for customs duties; 1916 for
the state; $1723 for the counties;
$1S.9S for Incorporated places; and
$1G.44 for schools, irrigation and the
drainage districts; making the per
capita collection for all purposes
$79.02. The population figure used
for determining the per capita costs
was $4,000, the estimated population
for the middle Of that year.
The compilation. which is believed
to be the first showing all revenues
for governmental purposes collected
from the people from all sources, was
prepared for the 1925 edition Of the
Colorado Year Book in which detail
figures by cities, towns, and counties
and the sources from which the rev.
enues were derived will be given.
