general manager for "Scarface"
Alphonse Capone, today faced the
possible sentence of IS years in
jail and a fine of $4,000 after a
Federal court last night found
him guilty Of income tax evasion.
GuZik's conviction was regarded
by authorities as the most serious
blow yet struck at the power of
Capone in the present campaign
to rid the city Of gang control.
Fine is $3O,OOO
Capone's manager, referred to
in the trial as the sbusineSs brains
and payoff man" of the syndicate
headed by "Scarface Al" was
found guilty on all three counts
Of his indictment for income tax
evasion. The maximum sentence
that can be inflicted is Is years

$4,000.
Guzik remained at liberty on
his original bond after the YER
dict was read. His attorneys made
q motion for a new trial. Capone's
right-hand man appeared stunned
at the verdict, but refused to
comment.

1t was Guzik who handled the
affairs Of the vast Capone or

SUNNERA[L IS
To QUIT TODAY

Gen. Charles P. Summerall of
Eustis, Fla, chief of staff for the
past four years, closed his active
career as a soldier today.
Tomorrow Maj. Gen. Douglas
Macarthur, who has been COM
mandant Of the Philippine De
partment since 1928, will be sworn
as his successor.
Summerall will be relieved of
active duty after today. Next
March 4, he will leave the Army
under the regulation compelling
retirement at the age nf 64.
One Of the Youngest
Macarthur is so and one of the
youngest men ever appointed to
the office.
Troops Of the Third Cavalry
and Sixteenth Field Artillery
were drawn up in front of Gen.
eral Summeralrs quarters at Fort
Myer at 3 o'clock this morning
for farewell review Of their
retiring chief.
A salute Of II guns was fired
in his honor.
Issues Statement
Paying high tribute to the men
with whom he has served, Gen
eral Summerall bade farewell to
the service today in a brief
statement.
He said:
Our officers, as q class, are
men Of superior intelligence, COM
prehensive education and high
professional attainments. Most
Of them are experienced in war
and possess tried qualities Of
leadership. Our enlisted men
represent the best element Of
American manhood.
ut is only fitting that mention
should be made of the work of
the War Department General
Staff, which during my incun-
bency has been characterized by
loyalty, industry. harmony and
mature Judgment that are wor-
thy of the highest praise"

census is now complete. More
than $4,000 women have paraded
before the census takers that
have been stationed on promi-
nent corners all this week. Many
Of them stopped to ask questions
and went away with a growing
sense Of the importance Of fash
ion. All of them were checked
as to the type or color Of their
coat, dress, hat or shoes.
The results of the coat census
have already been published. No
less interesting are the findings
of the StatiSticianS in regard to
dresses. Following coat trends,
as is natural, black was the
leading color" Nearly half the
dresses worn were black, and
they were about equally divided
between those trimmed with con-
trasting color and those that
were all black. Again, as in
coats, brown held second place.
There were quite a few very
smart colored frockS counted
also. Green and blue tied for
third place, and red was popular.
Then there were a few pastels
and beige frocks.
Length of Skirts
How short or how long are this
winters skirts? That's q ques-
ton of utmost Importance to all
women, and q question that de-
mands counting to be sure you're
right. Here is the verdict Of
Washington women: Thirty per
cent wore their skirts to the
upper part Of the calf. Sixty
per cent, or almost twothirds,
wore them to the middle of the
calf, which means midway be-
tween the ankle bone and the
bend Of the knee, and only z
per cent, less than onetenth,
wore them to the lower part Of
the calf.
Gloves are most important
question this year, and there has
been much controversy as to
which type is smartest. The GEN.
sus shows that half Of the women
wore plain slip-ons. Just few
wore gloves with decorated gaunt-
lets, and the rest wore the cuff
type.

OPPOSED
Rep. Kelly Raps Plan As Move
Lacking Any Justification.
On Basis Of '23 Cost Survey

Postmaster General Brown has
decided TO submit to Congress his
proposal to raise the cost Of letter
postage to 21a cents despite ad-
vice from members that 1t is
doomed to defeat, it was learned
today.
The recommendation is ex-
pected to be considered by Post
office committees of both Senate
and House, and strong opposition
is indicated.
Kelly Raps Plan
Representative Kelly (R,.) a
member of the House committee,
declared Browns proposal is en-
tirely without justification. He
said:
The Postmaster Generals re-
port for 1929 shows q profit Of
$S4, ,OOO, 900 on first class mail
at the present rate. "A loss Is
reported on all other. classes

when the first-c0st ascertain

erroneous basis. There is no

ports. I! have suggested that

ment.
Rate Fixed In 1883
Even on that basis the rate
on first class mail brings in
revenue to meet the expense Of
handling it.
The 2-cent rate on letters
was given in 1888. It is astound.
ing that Al years afterward,
with the unit cost Of handling
mail decreasing, we should now
be considering an increase in
the rate. Increasing the volume
Of mail is a far better way Of
raising revenue.

Representative Kelly is author
of the postal policy law enacted
by Congress under which the an.
Iiual expense of $40, 100000 for

not included in the deficit.
Excluding this, the department
predicts a $55, ,000, 900 deficit for
