Hills DAUGHTER
ATTACKS MERCER PLAN
Would Make Great Northern
Railroad the Parent
Company.

Washington, D, C.-Permission to in
tervene in the northwest railroad mer-
ger case was granted by the interstate
commerce commission to Clara Hin
Lindley, daughter of the late James
J.. Hill, railroad pioneer, and her hus
band, Erasmus C. LiRdley of New
York, who is an ex-vice-president OF
the Great Northern.
The petitioners seek a modification
of the proposed unification of 10000
miles of northwestern railroads.
The Lindleys went into consider
able detail in urging the advantages
Of a u~nification around the Great
Northern, a Minnesota corporation,
with authority TO own, operate, pur-
chase, lease or consolidate railroad
lines, as against a merger with the
Northern Pacific as the nucleus.
The new company, it was declared,
may properly be said to be a paper
corporation of Delaware, without sub
stantial property or credit" 1t is not
a carrier" within the meaning of the
interstate commerce act, it was
argued.
1t would be more in the public in
terest, the Lindleys %contended, for the
Great Northern TO issue approximately
s2~50,O00,00o additional capital stock, in
exchange for Z like amount of North
ern Pacific stock, than for the Dela-
ware company to issue approximately
s50O,OOO,0OO of capital stock in ex-
change Tor the stock Of the northern
lines.

Josephine Corliss Preston, state
superintendent Of public instruc-

until harvests are completed.
School authorities have dis
covered a peculiar situation exists
in the apple districts. Many fam
lies working in the orchards each
fall place their children in the
nearest schools while the crop is
being gathered, The result is a
heavy enrolment and a swollen
attendance for a month or two
then the children disappear. The
schools in the fruit districts are
obliged to shoulder this temporary
load.
Twenty-one new county super.

TAX LAWS SHOULD

1t is pointed out that the tax
payer is required to take oath to
his income tax return; therefore,
he is entitled to have the substan-
tive provisions Of the act stated IN

language.
The new law should contain a
clear definition Of persons, indi-

trust, etc, who are called upon and
expected to make returns and pay
tax, A clear statement Of allow
able deductions is a necessity.
Tax authorities allow as deduc-

tiles, recreation centers and re-
search work when these activities
are carried on under jurisdiction

points out Mr.. Dietrich, in discussing
the problem, that by the end of 193l
one-third of this number, or 6,412, 1913
motor vehicles, will be standing idle in
a usedcar yard. In the conglomerate
will be found models of every type of
manufactured automobile.
1T seems reasonable to assert that
in the course of a period of years
the chief menace to the production
in quantity of new automobiles will
be the used car. The approximation
of perfection in the building of the
chassis has made the mechanical
equipment of the automobile an un-
questioned certainty. The scientific
progress of paint and lacquer pro-
ducers has made the refinishing of a
used car an inexpensive operation.
The Improvement in parts and orna
mental devices are availabl to the
buyer for a small sum. With these
advantages of chassis, paint and i'm
proved parts the used car will com
pare favorably in congested traffic or
on the open highway with the higher
priced new car. 1t is reasonable to
suppose that the improvements in the
new models will not appear with
such rapidity and with such decided
changes in. design, color and comfort
that they will completely overwhelm
the owners and drivers of used cars
AS long as the used car persists it's
number will continue to gain on the
output total of new cars to such an
