In Bunch of Bananas

When Earl Speaks went 10 cut some
bananas from . bunch, In the Speaks
grocery. about 1850 Saturday after
noon. he saw the head Of q snake
waving out Of the top. He was not
sure whether It was q real reptile or
an illusion, but Ambrose Bra1erol.
who was In the store at the time, con-
firmed the impression.
The snake was dislodged from his
nest amid the fruit and was placed in
a jar and some ether added to keep
him quiet. He was partly comatose
as a result Of the refrigeration he re-
ceived on his journey to Bismarck.
J. p. Mccarthy, who has been ex-
hibiting snakes. eagles and owls in
his tire shop window, vas called in
and recognized the stranger as .
banana adder. The reptile is quite
long. but is q slim as q whiplash.

Community Property
Income May Be Filed
BY Husband or Wife

washington. Nov. 2A-R-The su-
preme court ruled today that income
community property In Arizona,
Louisiana, Texas and. Washington
may be reported for federal taxation
In separate returns By the husband
and wife.
The decision, handed down, by Jus
tice Roberts, upheld the findings Of
the courts in the four states.
Tho government brought the case
to the supreme court insisting that
community property income must be
reported in its entirety In . single tax
return by the husband alone.
It pointed out that with the rate OF
taxation increasing moporuoua&ely
with tho amount Of income. separate
returns resulted In .. lower payment
to the government.
The question turned on the interest
Of the wife in the income from COM
munity property affixed by the laws
Of the four states.
