THE JACK-MAX mill promised

a real fight, destined to give the
world an undisputed champion. And
YET it yielded less. Schmeling won
rho crown on a foul in the fourth

brief for Sharkey, we remain con-
vinced that he Is Schmeling's SUI

say an ordinary net income of $780,
900 so constituted that his tax
thereon is $1,000 and he also has a
capital gain of $4,000, his total tax
would be $1,000 plus (121@% of
$2O,OOO) $2,5OO or $500. We're it not
for this capital gain provision his
total tax on $4,000 income would be
$1O,36O.
Because the limit of taxation by
the Federal Government on capital
gains has been placed at 12198o, so
also has the limit of deduction
which a taxpayer may claim on a
capital loss been restricted to a re-
duction from his tax of 121s%o of the
capital loss. But this provision is
also applicable to income in excess
of $4,000. For example, suppose the
taxpayer above with ordinary net
income of 100000 so constituted that
his tax thereon is $1,000 has no cap
ital gains, but that he also has a
capital loss of $4,000. He can de-
duct from his tax of $4,000, 121s96 of
$4,000 or $500 and pay a net tax
of $500. He cannot deduct the $780,
900 capital loss from his 100000 or
binary net income and pay tax on
$4,000 net income, which in this
supposition case would be only
$2,100.

Nevada and several other states
where the number of elementary
school children is comparatively
small, are awarded but one third
prize, while Pennsylvania is allotted
% and New York rs.
Following the selection of the best
papers for each of the "a states and
territories, the essays and the les
sons are entered in competition for
the national prizes. These papers
are passed upon by a committee of
three judges generally representing
the field of education, literature and
business. First prize winner in the
national contest for pupils in addi-
ton to being brought to Washington

principal is May 8. Essays must be
not more than 500 words in length
and each contestant is required to
submit an illustration, either orig1-
nal or clipped from a magazine or
that is pertinent to the
question of safety education. A Sc
lection from these illustrations will
be used by the board in preparing
a safety poster for the contest in
1881. Safety lessons must be be-
tween 1000 and 5000 words and may
take the form which the teacher
thinks best presents the subject,
such as a lecture, recitation, game
or drama.
These contests have been conduct
ed by the Highway Education Board
during the past nine years and each
wear has seen an increase in the
number of participants. Last year
the number taking part totalled al
most 100000 pupils and 100000

INSPECTION LAST YEAR

point inspection service as provid-
ed in Delaware has proven to be OF
tremendous benefit to the growers
and shippers in this State. 1t pro-
vides a standard by which shipper
may sell or the buyer may buy with
complete confidence and understand
| ing. 1t is not claimed that such ship
ping point inspection will entirely
eliminate the rejection evil; how
ever, it certainly does tend to re-
duce the number of reflections to the
minimum, not only because of the
fact that it eliminates misunder-
standings between buyer and seller
regarding grade, but also because OF
the fact that there is considerable
hesitation on the part of any recelV-
er to reject a car of fruit or vege-
tables which has been officially IN
spected by a disinterested agency
and which the shippers can prove
was according to specifications.
Buyers are willing and can afford
to pay a premium for fruits or veg
etables that have been carefully
graded and inspected because they
know exactly what they are buying;
whereas, if they buy car OF fruit
or vegetables which has not been
graded or certified, the quality may
be either very good or very bad and
there is usually tendency on the
part of the buyer to pay the lowest
possible price in order to be pro-
tected against any poor quality
which may be in the packages. Re
ceivers in the terminal markets ad-
wise that it is easier for them to sell
fruits or produce that has been in
spected than it is for them to sell
products that have not been inspect
ed and consumers, generally, are en-
tirely willing to pay a premium Tor
a package of fruit which they know
contains a certain quality rather
than to pay cheaper price for I'M
graded products.
Official Federal-State shipping
point inspection also has tendency
to stabilize the price and while there
may be some difference between one
packers "U. S. No. 1" quality and
another packers because of the fact
that one packer may Intentionally
pack ION the line;" whereas, the
other may try to get his pack ex-
ceptionally good, yet grading and
inspection does help to stabilize
prices at shipping point and whe-
Their the producer be large or small,
when he delivers a load of graded
produce to the shipping point, he is
practically sure of getting price in
accordance Herewith. This also en-
courages the production of high
quality fruits and vegetables.
Many shippers of cantaloupes and
have consulted Mr..
Derickson regarding this shipping
point inspection service, and it is
probable that these two commodi-
ties will be inspected this season.

of industry, and the demands of pub
lie morals?" he asked.
In his reference to Lincoln Mr..
Vale said that the triumphant use OF
the Great Emancipator's reserve
power is the essential characteristic
of his nature. His youth, he assert
ed, was dominated by one conviction,
and his mature life by one determi-
nation. The conviction was the eco
nomic and moral wrong of slavery
he said, and the determination was
to strike out that wrong.
Lincoln he said, hated slavery,
but he also knew the peril of the
radical agitation for its abolition
He spoke on the physical and
moral courage of Lincoln, referred
to the second Republican convention
where Lincoln said the nation can
not live half slaves and half free,
and said that "Lincoln's serenity was
as unruffled as the flow of deep
river, and he was tender of heart.
He concluded by saying: you see
Lincoln as the man of splendid re-
serve power, of physical and moral
courage, of loyalty to men and prln-
ciples, of serenity and magnamln-
ity, of usefulness, of tenderness ana
goodness"

izations that would have required
all motor vehicle drivers to take out
liability insurance, but the bill fail
ed of enactment.
1t is understood that the Governor
is approaching the subject from an
open-minded viewpoint, he realizing
that after all the duty of passing
laws is vested in the legislature,
but he feels that committee such
as Mr.. dupont, Mr.. Richards and Mr..
Burnet may perform public SER
vice by gathering valuable data as
a result of a study of the subject
and submit recommendations as to
whether or not legislature is advis-
able requiring all motor vehicle dri-
vers to assume liability insurance as
a preliminary to being granted an
operators license, and also recon-
mendations to the most feasible
form of insurance, if such is recon-
mended.
Several states already have laws
requiring all drivers to take out liza
bility insurance. The State of Con-
necticut is said to have the most ad-
vanced law on the subject. While
such insurance is now held by thou
sands of drivers in Delaware, it is
taken out voluntarily by them as
protection.
In States that now require all
drivers to have liability insurance it
is obtained through private compan-
les. In some quarters recently the
possibility of States adopting plan
for the State to issue liability insur-
ance for motor vehicle drivers has
been suggested, but so far as is
known no State has entered into
that form of insurance coverage.
