Park reservation. near here. placed
upon the United States Govern.
ment full responsibility for the
wholesale slaughter that resulted
in the annihiIation Of the buffalo
that once swarmed the prairies.
LaMott said the Indians killed
these animals only for meat, but
added:
"The Government told Us to
kill them, declaring the sooner
we wiped out the buffalo the
sooner Uncle Sam would be
able to conquer the Indians
This incentive, LaMott said. was
first put into operation in the
late '70'S. LaMott himself ad
mitted having killed 43 buffalo in
one days hunt. He said in 1879
one Indian trader alone shipped
$500 buffalo hides down the Mis-
souri, River to the st. Louis fur
market. Many Of these hides
LaMott declared, were turned in
by Indians to whom the white
traders gave cast-off Government
Springfield rifles. They traded on
the basis Of one rifle for each
five hides.

COMMITS SUICIDE. i AFTER HIS ARREST
New Britain Man Hangs Self in New London Police Station

Within two hours of the time he was arrested on the charge of driv- ing an automobile while under the influence of liquor, Edward C. Reed 20, of $40 Washington street, this city, committed suicide by hanging in the New London police station yesterday afternoon. Word of the tragedy, which came to Lieutenant William P. McCue at police head quarters by teletype and was deliv- cred to the young mans father, Charles Reed, at his home by Ser geant P. A. McAvay, was a distinct shock to the family and many friends who were at a loss to account for the frame of mind in which he must have been when he made a moose of his belt and fixed it about his neck.
 Reed was driving along the Bos- ton Post road about 3 o'clock ac- companied by William Dolan of this cit, when State Policeman John Smith of the Groton barracks follow ed them and observed that their car with zigzagging. Near Moss brokers corner in Waterford he stop ped the car and arrested Reed and Dolan, the latter also being intoxi- cated, according to the police.
 So far as is known nobody saw Reed from the time he was locked up until about o'clock when an of f1cer brought him his supper and found him hanging from the top Of the cell. He was cut down and fran tic efforts were made to revive him, to no avail The New London fire department pulmotor and an inhala- tor from the life saving station at Ocean beach were used for two hours before the task was aban- doned.
 According to State Policeman Smith. Reed mentioned that he had been in difficulty before on account of automobile driving, but he did not appear Respondent nor act violently while being arrested. The local po- lice, however, have no record Of previous trouble involving the young man with the exception of an incl dent last June when he attempted to take the blame for an accident in which an automobile went off the road. At that time Stanley Novak was convicted of the charge of driv- ing while under the influence of liquor, Reed having been only a pas senger in the car. A week ago he was a witness 10 the accident result ing in the death Of Margaret Screen, T., Of 2 Yale street, George Tschin- derle being charged with man slaughter and bound over to the September term of superior court.
 Dolan, who vas with Reed, lives at 231 Beaver street, this city. It was said this afternoon that the charge of intoxication would not be pressed in his case.

 Was Legal.

The transfer of s10,000 from the street improvement fund to the highway account, voted by the com mon council at the July meeting and regarded by Chairman William H. Judd of the board of finance and taxation as being of doubtful legality, has been sanctioned by precedent and is proper, according to Council man Frank l.. Conlon, who brought the resolution to the common coun- cil as a means of unemployment re- lief.
 Chairman Jadd's stand is based on the charter provision that transfers cannot be made from one fund to another, excepting within 60 days of the end of any fiscal year. Coun- cilman Conlon has cited several in- stances in the past in which funds were transferred and used Mayor Quigley is giving the question study.

TRANSIT TAX PAYS
 FOR CHINESE WARS
Every Village EZaCtS TOII-
 Chang Claims New Victories

Washington. Aug. IS P) - Sources from which funds come to finance the constant military opera tions of the various contending ele- ments of Chinese rulership have been in part revealed by routine sur vey of American consular operations
 The cash still is being effectively Wrung out Of the resources of the masses by stringent application of "likin," which is a sort of a customs transit tax, imposed upon every shipment of goods as it moves through every hamlet, city, or pro- vincial sub division.
 Frank F. Lockhart, American con- sul general at Hankow, pointed out likin charges frequently totals many times the original value of the goods, and all is paid by the consumer
 Tn January. 1923" he said, an American firm reported that on a case of carbide. valued at eight dol ldfS, lltt tdAtS 4tNltd tDtGIIN HIH lNSl4 dollars.
 In May. 1929, an American oil company reported that it's agents paid taxes totaling SASS on kerosene shipped by water 150 miles, when the value of the kerosene was five dollars.
 The Chinese merchants and farmers suffer most from the direct taxation. although it is reflected in the cost of living of all classes.
 There is a great amount of resent ment, but it seldom is openly eX- pressed. Chinese psychology is such that the masses apparently adopt themselves to conditions and resent ment smolders passiyely.
