Some are too cowardly to pull up
the anchor and face the open sea.
You can't make progress when you
drag the anchor. The flukes will
hold somewhere and you'll rock idly
in a placid haven. Storm or no
storm, turn toward the boundless
deep. That's infinitely better than
the ceasless and unchanging harbor.

How about the tough nuts you
have to crack? Are you willing to
admit they get the best of you?
There are two answers to these
questions, each given by two types
of men. The weak willed man will
say, whats the use of trying-you
can't put it across" while the strong
willed man will say, Tough nuts,
eh; watch me crack 'em. Me let that
bunch get the best of me? I should
say not" The result-one man is
disgruntled and dissatisfied, while
the other is happy and prosperous.

lother color scheme, and it also is
likely that certain rooms in the
house will need repapering. One
room most likely to need new paper
is the kitchen because of the smoke,
steam and grease vapor that are
likely to arise from the gas or cleo
trio range.
The hardwood floors in certain
rooms may need refinishing. al
though this is a matter for the own
er to determine, inasmuch as some
rooms are used more than others
and must necessarily show the signs
of wear much sooner. Newly finish
ed floors add considerably to the
looks of the house. It is likely. too,
that Just about the third year the
pipe leading from the hot-Water
heater into the chimney as we'll as
the. pipe from the automatic hot
water gas heater will need replac-
ing at this time. Of course. the re-
placement of these pipes is a small
matter.
It can therefore he seen from
these suggestions that the owner Of
a house should include a certain
amount toward the monthly budget
for maintenance and only by includ-
ing this amount can he determine
more accurately the cost of "carry-
ing" his house.

versity of Pennsylvania and gradu-
ated from that institution in 1857
with the degree NJ. D. Shortly after
ward he located at GumbOrO, and
started practicing' his profession.
The job of a rural physician did not
appeal to him and he gave up his
profession to enter into the mer-
camille business in 1873 with the
late Colonel William Orr, of Lewes,
where he continued for several
years.
Later the business was sold and
DR.. Thompson moved to Philadel-
phia where for time he owned and
operated the old Delaware House,
which was located at Second and
Pine streets, that city. He success
fully operated the hotel and made
many investments which proved
profitable and caused him to amass
a small fortune. He returned to
Lewes, the scene of his boyhood and
young manhood days, and lived a
retired life. He became interested IN
the civic affairs of Eewes and work
ed at all times for the betterment OF
conditions.
DR.. Thompson for many years was
a widely known stOckholder and dl-
rector in a chain of banks in lower
Delaware. He held other interests
which occupied his attention.
In politics he was a nardent DEM
ocrat and took part in councils OF
his party in Sussex for many years.
Besides his wife, he is survived by
one daughter, Mrs. James AulI, OF

a jurisdiction where they were used
as an integral part of business"
Mr.. Evans then briefly reviewed
decisions of the Supreme Court Of
the United States, showing that It
has been moving by gradual stages
toward more liberal principles of
taxation.
He showed that quite naturally an
intolerable confusion arose out OF
the application of the four conflict
ing principles, previously mentioned,
but no serious interference from the
Supreme Court of the United States
was imposed until the case of Safety
Deposit and Trust Co. VS.. Virginia
came before it last November, it be-
ing a property tax case.
Thomas R. Ingram, cashier of the
Sussex Trust Company at Lewes,
made an interesting address on the
experiences of bankers in the small
ler towns. Mr.. Ingram spoke OF the
many situations which have to be
met and also declared that it was
now necessary to be familiar with
banking in general and the local
banker could no longer confine his
knowledge to local conditions.
]. E. Gosley, vice president of the
Millsboro Trust Company, and How
ard BucksOn, manager of the Della
ware Trust Company, branch at Do
yer. also spoke briefly.
There were about 120 bankers in
attendance. The officers present
were Francis deli. Janvier, president
of the New Castle Trust Company;
J. E. Gosley, vice president and also
vice president of the NTillsboro Trust
Company, Warren X. Ayres, secre-
tary of the association and secre-
tary of the Wilmington Trust Com
pany.

[COntiHued from First Page]
Mr.. Evans was introduced by Hen
ry P. Scott, president of the Will
mington Trust Company and said in
part:
During the last six months the
Supreme Court of the United States
has given evidence of a radical
change in its attitude on tax cases
and has repeatly invoked the Con-
stitution of the United States for
the protection of the taxpayer from
unjust and arbitrary tax laws. l
propose to discuss few of these
cases which | think will be of gen.
eral interest to you.
"The first group pertains to double
or multiple taxation by the various
States. The chief danger of double
taxation arises in connection with
intangible personal property, such
as stocks, bonds, notes, credits, ETC.;
things which merely represent en-
forceable rights and have no physi-
cal existence. This applies to both
property taxes and inheritance
taxes. There are four theories as 10
the jurisdiction for taxing intang-
ible personal property, which .fter
all constitutes the bulk Of our
wealth.
"First-They could be taxed at the
residence of the legal owner on the
old maxim that movable follow the
person. Second-They could also be
taxed in the State of the debtor or
creator of the right on the theory
that resort must be had to the courts
of that state for enforcing the debt
or other right. Third-They could
also be taxed in the state where the
physical evidence. such as note,
bond or stock certificate was located.
Fourth-They could also be taxed in

BUYER OF LIQUOR
ISOUTSIDEOF LAW

to make the buyer of liquor equally
guilty with the seller.
Senator Jones, Democrat, Wash
ington, author of the five and ten"
law, said he seriously doubted the
wisdom of any legislation seeking
to make the buyer guilty of violat-
ing the prohibition laws in view of
the Supreme Courts decision that
the buyer was not punishable under
the present law.
A little earlier Senator Sheppard,
Democrat, Texas, author of such q
measure, had announced that he
would press for action upon it.
In the Farrar case, Justice Suth-
erland pointed out that up until now
the Government had not considered
the buyer guilty. Commenting that
no additional legislation had been
passed by Congress, he said the
Court sustained lower tribunals
decision that quashed the case
against Farrar.
Justice Sutherland said that Con-
gress might have purposely passed
no additional laws, in order that the
buyer might testify against the sell
Ter.
The Farrar case was selected as a
test case by Attorney General Nit
chell in an attempt to solve several
troublesome questions in prohibit
tiOn enforcement. The Federal Dis
trict Court quashed the Farrar in
dictment, holding it was not an Of
Tense under the Prohibition act to
purchase liquor from a bootlegger.
The Government took the position
in the Supreme Court that all pur-
chases of liquor, except under per-
nit or a physicians prescription
were illegal.
Counsel for Farrar argued that the
permits which the Government IN
sisted were necessary to legallze the
purchase of liquor were issued only
to manufacturers and other author
lied to withdraw liquor and alcohol
for other than beverage purposes,
and did not apply to purchasers
from boOtleggers. He also pointed
out that while the Prohibition
Amendment was being framed in
Congress, unsuccessful efforts were
made to penalize purchasers, and
that Senator Sheppard, Democrat
/ Texas, one of the proponents OF the
Prohibition Amendment, recognized
that it did not cover purchases oi
/ liquor from bootleggers and now had
pending a bill to make such pur-
chases illegal.

ficulty was encountered by the raid
ers because they already had war
rants and evidence of buys, from the
people on the prescription" list.
To expedite matters, U. S. Com
missioner Albert F. Polk went to
Dover to hold hearings. He had an
improvised court in the home OF
Sheriff Carol V. Massey. Friday NOR
ming, he started work again and was
kept busy all day giving hearings
and setting bail.
Mr.. Hill said this was the biggest
roundup of alleged bootleggers in
Delaware since prohibition.
"The State is pretty dry" he said'
"but there's lot more we are going
to get. We have been planning for
this for the past three weeks and
everything worked smoothly.
"This massing of Federal agents
in one district for a concerted series
of raids is an innovation and we in
tend to have them periodically"
There were some amusing incl
dents attached to the raids. One
woman, Mae Marvel, colOred, of Mid
dletown, had fainting spells. She
held up the raiding party several
times and when arraigned in Com
missioner Folks Office she tainted
again. She was charged with sale
and possession and held under $15OO
bail but was later released on her
own recognizance.
In another instance, the agents
found a ten-gallOn keg in shed at
the home of Joseph w. Rhoades, col
ored, of Middletown. They only Sc
cured an ounce and half of liquor
from that keg but had already evil
dence, they said, of previous buys.
Friday morning, U. S. Deputy Mar
shall Harry c. Short, with several OF
the agents, went to Dover to bring
prisoners who had been placed in
Jail for the night because they did
not have time to give them hearings.
Those arraigned Thursday and re-
leased on bail were:
Ernest NAPLES, colored, of Arm
strong, $4,000 bail.
William Kincade, Dover, $4,000;
Mrs. Katherine Kincade, Dover,
$1,500; Kate Manser, Lincoln, ST.

Harrison Hopkins, colored, George

lis, colored, of near Georgetown.
Others arrested and given notice
to appear for commissioners hear
ings were: Joseph w. Rhoads, col
