NEW PRODUCTS FORMED
 BY HEATED NATURAL GAS

WASHINGTON July 16.- De- composition of natural gas at high temperatures is being studied by the Bureau of Mines to obtain various commercial products.
 It has been found that whe1 methane is subjected to tempera- lures of 1900 to 2200 degrees Fah- renheit it breaks up or cracks.
 At slightly lower temperatures the parts reunite. but form neN products as they combine. The higher hydrocarbon gases also breas up and reunite to give variou: products different from the paren' substances.
 At sufficiently high temperatures the gases will decomppse to carbon and hydrogen.
 Other gases formed in the de. composition of natural gas are acetylene, butadiene, ethylene, pro pylene, and butylene. all of which fave considerable commercial use.

RUMSON, N. 1.-The career of Donald Shields Andrews, profligate spender who startled society by eloping with an Austrian princess over decade ago, has just come to ghastly and mysterious end. The lifeless body of the heir to the famous Cleveland familys ore millions was found lying on the floor of his magnificently- equipped chemical laboratory.
 On a nearby table stood two glasses. One was filled with water and the other with cyanide potas- sium. Whether Andrews drank the poison accidentally or Intentionally may never be known.
 Thus Andrews, at 35, dies as strangely as he lived. People like him exist more often in the pages of fantastic novels than in real life. His short existence was cram med with romance and excitement and scared with tragedy
 Andrews was the son of the late Matthew Andrews, of Cleveland, and inherited several of the mill lions his family made in Middle Western mines.
 Andrews, 22-year-old graduate, created a nine -days-stir when he eloped with Mrs. Alma Hayne, daughter of Crown Prince Rudolph, and his morganatic wife, Baroness Marie Vetsera, who had killed them selves during 1899 in a suicide pact.
 Andrews had met the princess through letter from his fiancee, Miss Elizabeth Strang, of Cleve- land A few days after the prin- cess and Andrews were married they sailed for Europe where the young millionaire-to-be was sent the parental blessing.
 A few months later after amaz- ing London by the way he threw compound notes to bellboys and walters. Andrews returned to America alone.
 Without making any explanation of the estrangement with his blue blooded bride, Andrews went out to his fathers mines in Minnesota to seek seclusion.
 The princess came back to Amer ica later, her arms and neck cov- cred with jewels. She spent money even more recklessly than her hus- band had. In 1919, several years after she and Andrews had been divorced, the princess committed suicide by drinking poison at the Second Victory Ball at London.
 After her death. Andrews re-
The Daily Alaska empire., 1930-07-16

married again and bought $100, 900 estate at Rumson. He settled down to devote himself to experi- ments in chemistry in the enormous laboratories he had built there. Of late he had been working on tele- vision and attempting to make syn thetic coal.
 Three years ago, Ann Woollet, a chorus girl, sued Andrews for S22,- 900, claiming that he agreed to pay her $500 week to act as his com- panion and nurse, because his wife was considering getting a Paris di- vorce. She said Andrews promised to pay her S24,ooo in all, but had only made four deposits of $500 and then quit.
 Mrs. Hilah Reeder Andrews, his wife, accompanied his body to Cleveland for interment.

TAX APPEALS BOARD
RULING REVERSED
Los Angeles Park Company
Wins Decision on Deficiency
Assessment for 1917.

Because the United States Board of
Tax Appeals refused to permit the
Alameda Park Co. of Los Angeles TO
amend its petition for remittance of a
deficiency of $4,457.69 assessed on its
return for 1917, by adding a plea of
the statute OF limitations, the District
Court of Appeals yesterday reversed the
action of the board and directed that
the amendment be permitted. The rec
ord showed that more than years had
elapsed before an effort was made by
the Government to collect the efficiency
and in an opinion by Chief Justice
Martin the court points out that the
plea of the statute is not regarded with
disfavor by the taxing statutes and
where the facts appearing in the case
disclose such a defense, although not
pleaded. due exercise of judicial dis
erection requires that an amendment
should be allowed in order to make the
pleadings conform with the facts.
Another Decision Reversed.
The boards action was also reversed
in an opinion by Justice Charles H.
Robb on the appeal of the Davidson
Grocery Co. of Boise, Idaho. The
amount involved was S6,063.03 which
the company had deducted from its
IOT bIle year 1SZU do uIlCOllcCCAOlC
to that extent after the debtors had
been placed in the hands of receiver.
The Internal Revenue Bureau and the
Board of Tax Appeals both held that
debts ascertained to be worthless" re-
lateS to debts that are wholly worthless
and that no deduction may be taken in
the year when a debt is ascertained to
be partially worthless. Following a de-
cision in the second circuit the opinion
holds that there is no apparent reason
either in fact or in law why a deduc-
ton from gross income should not be
made in the year in which such losses
are fixed by the occurrence of events
that prevent their collection.
Affirmed in Two Gases.
The Board of Tax Appeals was
affirmed in two other decisions of the
court in one of which it had held that
Lee Rosenberg of New York was not en-
titled to claim Texarkana, Tex, as his
domicile, bpt must make his income re-
turns from New York. In the other
It upheld a ruling that the Henningsen
Produce Co. of Nebraska was not en-
titled to charge of $5,46045 from its
