Joe Gonder's spotted male pup
presented the following to Scoop at
the Postoffice on Monday morning:
Homeden, Shaggy Mountain,
February 8, 1880.
Dear Scoop:
Whenever you refer to me in the
future do not confuse me with saus-
age. i admit that sausage is ground
hog, but, remember, / am the only
original weather prognosticator.
In order that those of my friends
who still have confidence in my sa-
gacity may know how to prepare for
the next six weeks, I want to report
that on yesterday 1 aroused myself
sufficiently to waddle to my front door
to cast my weather eye about. At
first glance the surrounding gloom
filled my heart with joy. l looked to
the right, looked to the left, looked
in front and 1 looked behind. No
shadow! 1 was just preparing to
descend to the low lands for few
nibbles of my favorite spring tonic,
when, curses! the clouds parted and
the binding rays of the morning sun
penetrated my leafy bower. Hastily
casting my eye in all directions 1
found my shadow sharply defined
against rattle snake den. Ye gods
and little fishes! Hastily gathering
up my eye which had cast about,
gave the lowbrow sign of high de-
rision to the Sun, and returned to my
bed chamber, for another snooze.
Please tell some of your red nose
friends that in about six weeks I'll
need little eye opener.
Yours for six weeks of .!*'*. :.

YOUNGQUIST TALKS
OF INCOME TAX LAWS
Assistant Attorney General Dis.
cusses Recent Legislation on Sub
ject at Federal Bar Meeting.

Various phases of recent income tax
legislation were explained by Assistant
Attorney General Aaron Youngquist at
a meeting of the Federal Bar Associa
ton last night In the University Club.
Mr.. Youngquist went into considerable
detail In discussing the taxability of
good will as a business asset. He re-
ferred particularly to recent cases
brought by breweries and distilleries
seeking income tax rebates by reason
Of good will loss during the years inn
mediately preceding the passage of the
income tax amendment
The attorneys for the plaintiffs, in
cases Of this kind which went to the
Supreme Court, commended that their
clients were entitled to tax rebates for
the years 1917 and 1915 by reason Of
loss Of good will, he declared. The
speaker pointed out, however, that the
court sustained the Governments con-
tention that this asset was properly
taxable
Another feature Of the meeting was
the adoption Of constitutional changes
designed to increase the membership of
the association. After lengthy discus
sion, the enrolment of law ofiicers In
the District and possessions Of the
United States was agreed upon.
President William r. Valance an
lounced that the next meeting would
be held December Is. Speakers win be

Cut in Effect Next Monday
Puts Round Trip Cost
Under 5 Cents a Mile.

Following nearly three months Of OPP
Grafton between the National Capital
and New York, during which nearly
$4,000 passengers have been flown. the
New York, Philadelphia a. Washing
ton Airway Corporation today an
nounced that on Monday It's fares win
be reduced TO the lowest point charged
by any scheduled airline.
The new rates, which amount 10
slightly less than cents per Ynile for
the round trip, are less. 1t Is claimed,
than the fare on special fare trains
one way and less for the round trip
than rail fare for chair car or Pullman.
At the same time the line. which
operates % planes daily, on an hourly
schedule, will inaugurate stops at Glenn
Martin Airport, Baltimore and at
Trenton. NJ j., In addition to the pres
ent stop at Philadelphia.
The fare reduction to 90 into effect
Monday Is regarded as q bold step for
ware IN air transportation, since it Is
based solely upon the continuation OF
mass transportation" at the rate Of
5000 passengers or more per month.
The rate Is below that offered by the
crack European airlines which are paid
large governmental subsidies to aid
them in operation. 1t Is lower than
the rate charged on the London Paris
line, which long was regarded as the
worlds model airline.
I'VE are not reducing the rates as
an experiment" declared c. l.. Luding-
ton, chairman Of the board, "since, after
all, we carried approximately 10000
passengers during the first so days Of
operation. but we are certain that It
is logical and practical decision for
increasing our traffie volume. thus add
ing to our schedules and further reduce
ing operating costs per mile. We believe
that the day when air passenger lines
can be 80 set up as to afford to charge
even less than rail tariffs is closer ct

PRESIDENT BACKS
REDUCTION OF DEBT
Opposes Use of Sinking Fund
In CriSiS-Tax Cut
Hope Is Fading.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Regardless of o prospective deficit,
President Hoover has disapproved sug-
gestions for suspending this year all re-
duction Of the public debt.
In the interest Of sound Government
financing the Chief Executive an
nounced yesterday he wished left alone
the sinking fund set aside for reducing
the obligations of the United States.
With HIS announcement, what hopes
remained for q continuance Of the cur
rent / per cent reduction In income
tax rates sank to q new low.
The proposal had been made in sew
eral quarters that the sinking fund. now
about $3.50 100000 a year, be applied
through congressional authorization
against this years expenditures. 1t was
mum, the deficit and also permit con-
tinuance Of the low tax rate.
Other Funds Available.
The, President indicated other funds
which have been applied to debt re-
duction during the surplus years would
be available for current use. These in-
clude foreign debt payments and other
receipts which have not been needed
for immediate Government operations.
The President said:
1.-The administration Is opposed 10
any encroaehment on the statutory
provisions for retirement of the public
debt. The sinking fund now amounts
to something over $3.50, 100000 q year.
hitherto we have allocated various
funds, such as surplus of foreign debt
payments, to retirement over and above
the statutory provisions which excess
sums would, Of course, be available for
current use without encroachment upon
the statutory requirements. It Is sound
government finance to hold to the sink
ing fund provisions Of the public debt"
Ahead Of Schedule.
The Government now is far ahead OF
the statutory requirements in the
matter of debt reduction. From the
peak of $4,000, 00O. 900 the Nations
obligations have ben reduced in 10
years to $4,000, 000, 900. It was this
condition that inspired the proposal to
leave the debt unreduced for one year
Even before the Presidents announce
ment, however, both the Treasury and
several congressional leaders had made
known they would not recommend It,
A shrunken internal revenue, coupled
with the need this year for consider
able appropriations for relieving abnor-
NAL economic conditions. has brought
about the deficit expectation. Mr..
Hoover recently expressed belief It would
be O small shortage.
The budget plans now being drawn
up contemplate stringent economy in
the operation of Government Depart
ments, but this IL expected to be Offset

HUMANE SOCIETY
SUIT IS ATTACKED
Dismissal Asked of Injunction
Against Expenditure
of Funds.

Application was made yesterday IL
the District Supreme Court to dismiss
suit recently brought by Mrs. VIC
torine B. Elmore and other members
Of the Washington Humane Society fol-
an Injunction against an alleged illegal
expenditure of the funds Of the society
for q Maryland dog farm, virginia
cat home and for veterinarians to care
for sick animals belonging TO poor peo-
pie.
The motion to dismiss is filed in the
name Of the Washington Humane So
ciety by james p. Briggs, its vice presi-
dent, and by nine other members, who
point out that the court lacks juris-
diction to entertain the suit Of Mrs
Elmore because the society is incor-
porated by act of Congress as a chari-
table corporation, and II It's proposed
actions are beyond its powers, they may
be halted only at "the suit OF the
United States"
Mrs Elmore. who Is president Of the
society, seeks to restrain the society and
its executive committee from paying
$500 to the Humane Education Society,
which Is operated by Briggs In Mary
land, for the care Of dogs; 5000 to q
cat home ut Brandy, Va, and $500
III dhCC NCStAlAlaA AAAlB 70 CbEG
for sick animals belonging TO the poor,
which donations she claimed, were be-
yond the power of the society.
Briggs and his associates, in asking
dismissal Of the suit, point out that the
size Of the District of Columbia makes
1t difficult TO obtain sites for an animal
shelter within It's boundaries, and
hence 1t Ia necessary TO locate in near
by Maryland and Virginia. The pro-
posed expenditure of $500 monthly for
veterinarians to the poor, they say, is
to prevent cruelty TO animals which
otherwise might suffer for want OF
such treatment, and falls directly
within the purposes set forth In tile
original charter of the society.
