homes were ready for electricity

farm women had learned that
electricity would tighten the bur-

happiness and new. opportunities

SENATOR IS
FACING
FIGHT
U. S. Officials Believe Case
Here Is Much Stronger
Than Montana One

The Government is determined
to press its charges of conspiracy
against Senator Burton K. Wheeler
of Montana.
This was evidenced today in the
appointment of William E. Leahy,
famous criminal lawyer. as spe-
eial assistant to Attorney Gen.
eral Sargent. Leahy is expected
to direct the Governments legal
battle against Senator Wheeler
before the District Supreme Court.
Convicted ''Nicky" Arnstein.
The case is expected to be called
late this summer or early in The
fall, it was stated today.
Leahy is a criminal lawyer of
high caliber. During the notorious
bond conspiracy case duplicating
Jules W., e'Nicky'D Arnstein and
others. Leahy was the prosecuting
attorney.
Arnstein and several Of his col
leagues in the "million-doIlar bond
conspiracy" were convicted.
Senator Wheeler must face
charges of having criminally con-
spired with Edwin s. Booth. former
solicitor of the Interior Department,
and Gordon Campbell, Montana oil
magnate. to obtain fraudulenIly
Government oil and gas lands in
Montana.
Attorney General Sargent, to-
gether with Assistant Attorney
General William Donovan, have
gone over the evidence against

They believe the Department of
Justice has a stronger case against
Senator Wheeler than the one
prosecuted in Montana when the
legislator was acquitted of using
his office to gain favors for a
client.

a Year Put in
Minneapolis Chest
Fails to Eliminate Separate
Drives, However, After
Seven Campo paigns

MINNEAPOLIS, May 3O.-For
seven consecutive years the Com
munity Fund of Minneapolis has
raised a 81 100000 a year to pro-
vide funds for the operation of vir-
tually all of the charitable or
ganizatiOns in the city. The fund
is handled by the Minneapolis
Council of Social Agencies, which
was organized in 1915 as a feder-
alton of public and private agencies
dealing with social welfare problems
in Minneapolis.
The work done by the social
agencies includes caring for the
needy and assisting them where
possible to strength and indie
pendence.
The community fund system be-
gan in Minneapolis with the war
chest in November, 1918, which
raised funds contributed nS Mime
apolis war organizations to foreign
relief and to local social agencies.
1t proved economical and efficient
so with the discontinuance of the
war chest the Council of Social
Agencies adopted central fl
nancing for local agencies and
each year since that time has con-
Quoted an annual combined cam
paign on a city-wide scale.
Savings Effected.
This gives all residents an op-
portunity to subscribe at one time
to the support of the participating
agencies, which in 1924 numbered
sixty-two. 1t is pointed cut that
this system effects an emo NOUS
saving Of time and effort, both for
solicitors and those solicited, and
an equally impressive saving IN
campaign expense.
Under the old system of individ-
uaI appeals to the public by each
agency separately the campaign
cost ran generally between Is ard
30 per cent. Under the community
fund system the campaign cost has
been reduced 2.69 per cent. Tie

Difficulties Encountered.
Difficulties encountered in the
organization and administration Of
a community fund center around
one factor-that of keeping all of
the participating agencies satisfied
And this requires a deal of diplom-
acy, fund leaders say.
Separate campaigns for funds
serves to defeat the strongest al gu
ment for a community fund. One

ARE BRAINS NEEDED
IN GOLF?

Dear Bill: J. III. Taylor, fG-
nous British golfer, says that
statesmen make poor golfers, be-
cause they 1OorTy about govern
ing the people and can not gOV-
ern themselves IN a golf game.
He contends that successful golf
can only be played By cO1aceTa-
tration-thi1aking of nothing but
yodr shots.
This brings up the question
aUhether brains really play any
part in golf or whether< 1t is
physical mechanism developed to
high point. Apparently the
only thinking required IS about
the game. If your mind aOGn-
ders GWGy to your business or
to your Love affairs its all OUer
with you. You mustn't haze
mind that can think.
After all, though, success IN
anything comes through concen-
tr0ti0n, the application of all
the resources of your mind to
the one thing to be done. So
swe'H conclude that some brains
are necessary In golf.

day, the largest mail in one single
day in history, Chatham H.. Tow
ers, District tax collector, esti-
mated that approximately $21,-
100000 would be collected this
year from personal and real estate
taxes. During the last fiscal
year something more than $l9,-
100000 was received.
The increase is due for the
most part to the tax increase

real estate, and to the gasoline
tax, for the latter tax more than
$500, 900 being collected.
Largest Of Taxpayers.

fiscal year was the Chesapeake and
Potomac Telephone Co., paying
$216, ,365. .08, a tax of per cent on
gross receipts.

Electric Co. was second with more
than 5000, 900; the Capital Traction
Co. third, $1S1, ,65S; Potomac Electric
Power Co. fourth, $179,793; Wash
ington Gas Light Co., fifth,
$145, ,O46; Georgetown Gas Light
Co, sixth, $11,441.
The American Security and Trust
Co, paying $116.621, was the larg-
est taxpayer among national banks
and trust companies; Riggs Nation
al second, with $96,915 and Wash
ington Loan and Trust Co. third

The savings bank list was led by
the Security Savings and Com
mercial Bank, paying $7,SOS.

y Mr.. Towers said today that the
mail this year has been heavier
than any previous year.
