INCREASE AUTO ACCIDENTS

At coming sessions of Legislatures
attempts will be made to pass laws
making automobile accident insurance
compulsory on automobile owners. In
addition to this, laws will undoubted-
~ be proposed to establish monopol-
istic state automobile insurance or
state automobile funds with commits
sions to collect and expend the same,
similar to present state .workingmen's
compensation commissions.
All this agitation for new legisla-
ton and further extension of state
activity into the field of private bus
ness will be carried on under the guise
of accident prevention work
Here is one point to consider: At
present private insurance companies
exert restraining Influence upon
reckless automobile drivers due to
the fact that they reserve the right
to refuLe insurance to man known
TO be a bad risk.
Under state insurance there
would be no incentive on the part of
state officials to turn down poor
risk. A compulsory state insurance
law or monopolistic state fund act
would require that all carry insurance
The careful driver would have to be
made UP out of general taxes assessed
against all the people.
Anyway it can be figured whole
sale state automobile insurance would
open wide field Tor fraud and the
encouragement of carelessneSs. The
present check of personal liability
and responsibility would be largely
removed and the principled driv r
would simply say, Let the insurance
company or the state pay the bill.
What do | care"
Automobile accidents will not be
prevented by making it easier for
drivers to e1cape responsibility for
their own carelessness.

YOUR INCOME TAX
No. 8


If you are single and support in
your home one or more persons clos
ely related to you and over whom you
exercise family control, you are the
head of family and entitled under
the revenue act of 1924 to the same
personal exemption allowed married
person, $4,000. In addition, tax
payer is entitled to credit of $400
for each person dependent upon him
for chief support, if such person is
either under Is years of age or inca
pable of self-support because mental.
ly or physically defective. Such de-
pendent need not be member of the
taxpayers household. For example,
an unmarried son who supports in his
home an aged mother is entitled to
an exemption of $4,000 plus the $4OO
credit for a dependent, total of
$4,000. If from choice the mother
lived in another city, the son, al
though her chief support, would be
entitled only to the $1,000 exemption,
plus the $500 credit. The mother not
living with, he is not considered the
head of a family.
An exemption as the head of fam
lily can be claimed by only one mem
Der of a household.
The $4Oe credit does not apply to
the wife or husband of taxpayer
though one may be totally dependent
upon the other

it can't be done. In the second place
he is practising to become a great

But does he argue always for prac-

Damage to Augusta
Power Lines Less
Than in Other Places

The Augusta section of the Gen.
trail Maine Power Company lines
was not seriously disturbed by the
electrical storms of Wednesday af-
ternoon although report from the
company shows that at several
points more serious disturbances
were noted. Three separate show
ers attacked the interconnected sys-
tenn respectively at points in the
vicinity Of Skowhegan, Lewiston and
Roasland, causing short local inter-
ruptions in light and power SER
vice.
Most serious trouble was exper-
fenced on the lines in the vicinity
of Guilford, where the interruption
of service was prolonged for two
hours while a crew was rushed to
the wilderness to repair broken lines
caused by fallen limbs blown by the
wind. At other points on the sys-
tenn the service interruptions were
negligible.
Although the lightning was severe,
wind was the chief source OF line
trouble. The high tension line
equipment automatically took care
Of the lightning bolts without serious
consequences. Night crews worked
necessarily on lines affected by the
windstorm, repairing broken wires
and poles. Service was normal
everywhere early Thursday morn
ing.

Claim New York
Lawyer Master Mind
Of Band SWindlers

New York, June 11-(AP)-Des-
cribed by District Attorney Banton
as the master mind" of band of
robbers and swindlers that has stol-
en- hundreds Of thousands of dollars
from Wall Street messengers, Israel
Brinkham, lawyer, was indicted to-
day for grand larceny in the first
degree and receiving stolen property
Samuel Kosandorf, alias Braun
stein, was indicted with Brinkham
on charges of being implicated on a
$4,000 fraud on Mark Rothkrug, a
clothing merchant, who was a client
Of the attorney.
Rothkrug alleged that Brinkham
told him last September that a friend
had invented a letter press" for
copying banknotes and that he would
allow Rothkrug as an old client to
share in the Illicit gains.
Rothkrug said that he withdrew
$4,000 in cash from the bank, all in
$500 and $1,000 notes, and brought
1t to Brinkham's office to be copied.
A stranger, introduced to Rothk-
rug as the inventor of the device,
placed the money in the press and
poured bottle of acid over it. Say
ing that he needed more acid, the
stranger left and several hours later
telephoned back that he used the
wrong acid. When Rothkrug and
Brinkman opened the press there
was a slight explosion and only
ashes were found inside, Rothkrug
said. Rothkrug, finding the corners
of severa! 81 bills among the ashes,
went to the district attorneys office
and charged that he had been swind-
led.
Brinkman also was charged with
depositing $4,000 in stolen. bonds
and $36,OOO in Liberty bonds said to
have been part of a 100000 theft
from the Liberty Trust Company of
st. Louis last October, with the Chel-
sea Exchange Bank for a loan. He
also is said to have placed $4,000
worth of allegedly stolen Liberty
bands with the United States Mort
gage and Trust Company for another
loan.

Cony Last Chapel
Marks Opening of
Commencement Week

When the 80 members Of the Cony
High school graduating class march
into Assembly hall at the opening of
school this morning it will be with the
thought in their minds, and casting
slight veil of sorrow over the proceed
ings, that this is their last chapel.
After four years together they have
come to the first of a series of events
which go to make up commencement
week, that final crowded period which
marks the completion of their tasks In
high school.
~ And at the close of that busy week
the class of 1925 will disband and Its
members go out into the highways
and byways Of life to take up their
life tasks, many to gather at future
commencements of their alma mater
and renew those pleasant friendships
of high school days, others perhaps
to break off forever the equally pleas
ant friendships which they have made
For that reason the last chapel is
service filed with conflicting emotions,
low that they have nearly completed
their high school tasks, and sorrow
that they must leave the school anu
it's associates. ~,
AS a perhaps final reversfon to ch.id-
hood days, the girls of the class WIN
wear their hair in pig-talis, II II ha ,,
not already been bobbed, and they Will
be clothed in white MILDLY plouses anu
red ties. The boys will wear wni'e
trousers and their varsity sweaters.
The seniors will march into Assem-
h1v hall to music by the school or
chestra and will occupy seats Ill tne
front of the room. Several memners
of the class, including President
Frank Howe, who has charge OF the
last chapel, will be seated upon 'he
platform. These members VIII pe
called upon to assist with the pro-
gram. forrner
It is probable that mary FORMER
graduates Of Cony High school ana q
few parents will be present upon TINS
occasion to witness the last chapel Oh
the class Of 1925.
