GLASGOW, Scotland, September 10.
Millions of years ago Europe and
North America were united, but they
drifted apart allowing the seas to flow
between them and form the Atlantic
Ocean, said E. B. Bailey, president of
the geological section of the British
Association for the Advancement of
Science, in an address here today.
Prof. Bailey drew his conclusion from
the similarity of tie paleolic or primary
mountain systems of Europe and Amer
ica. He stated that two mountain
ranges of different formations, called
the Caledonian and the Hercynian, one
beginning in Eastern Europe and the
other in Scandinavia, converge in
southern Wales. He said that an exact
ly similar conveyance is found in New
England.
He compared the coal mountains of
Pennsylvania to the mountains of South
Wales, the Ruhr and upper Silesia.
The study we have made of noun
tainS, with their folds and thruSts, in
wolves recognition of some type of con-
tinental drift" he said "Wegener has
developed this idea on a particularly
grand scale. He has accounted for
many recognized correspondence in the
geology of the two sides of the Attain
tic by supposing that the ocean flowed
in between the old world and the new

logical slowness. drifted asunder. One

TREASURY OPENS
HEARINGS ON TAX
Consolidated Income Return
Is Principal Problem to
Be Solved.

In opening public hearings today to
gather information on consolidated in
come tax return problems affecting cor
porations, the Treasury Department
embarked upon a highly technical
course which 1t anticipates will result
IN more beneficial regulations. to be
issued about November l. Tax experts
from all over the country will be on
hand during the five days the hearing
is scheduled to continue. in order to
give the Treasury Department their
ideas on the proposed regulation affect
ing the tax liability, collections and con-
Solldated returns from affiliated corpora
tionS.
The hearing began this morning in
Room 276 in the Treasury Building
before a committee composed of Henry
Herrick Bond, Assistant Secretary of the
Treausry in charge of internal revenue;
David H. Blair, Commissioner of In
ternal Revenue: Clarence M ChareSt
general counsel of the Bureau of In
ternal Revenue. and Ellsworth C. Alvord.
special assistant to the Secretary of the
Treasury
H B. Fernold, representing the Amer
lean Mining Congress. and j. S. Wal
lace. representing public utilities in Chi
cago. laid before the committee at the
morning session their ideas on the pro-
posed regulation.
Congrss, under the revenue act of
1923, Mr. Bond explained, gave the
Treasury Department the right to make
legislative regulations, and this power
has been delegated to the commissioner
of internal revenue. Desiring to gain all
available information on the subject.
the Treasury Department is holding the
present hearings TO permit all interested
persons to express their views.
The question of consolidating returns
was live issue at the time the bill was
pending in Congress. Mr.. Bond recalled,
explaining that consolidated return is
a single return by two or more corpora
tions. Numerous parent corporations
have many subsidiaries of the country
and the problem facing the Treasury
is how returns should be
made and to whom the department
should look for payment
Hundreds of technical questions
bound up this great financial problem.
MIR. Bond said, including the question of
the breaking up at later time of the
large groups and transactions involving
the purchase or sale of stock of subsid-
aries, and numerous other questions.

Forty of the ninety available chan
