Legal LoophOIe Sought for
Transfer of 100000
From Road Fund.

by Leslie as Auditor
Urges Economy.

A committee of three, appointed
by Governor Harry C. Leslie, was
busy today trying to find a legal
loophole for transferring 100000
from the state highway department
into the general fund to keep the
state tax rate at 90 cents.
That it will stay at 20 cents was
decided at a session of the taz
board, auditor and Governor in Les
lies Office Wednesday afternoon
The highway commission was called
in to consider the 100000 dona-
ton plan.
1t is based on the idea that the
state highway department got more
than that amount in inheritance
tax from the general fund through
statue of 1923 being declared un-
constitutional.
Leslie for % Cents
When the meeting opened Leslie
declared:
IT think we ought to take a pot
shot at % cents"
But Philip Zoercher, veteran ta2
board member, produced figures tc
show that it would b. necessary tt
take 100000 of highway funds tt
keep the rate at 90 cents.
Highway commissioners agreed tt
the plan, but neither Director Johr
j. Brown nor Floyd E. Williamson
state auditor, wanted to take the
responsibility for the shift.
Eventually, the Governor ap-
pointed the committc to consider
ways and mean. Membership is
composed of William P. Cosgrove
deputy state auditor; Arthur Sapp
state highway commissioner, anc

was cut from the present 1873

Pliny Wolford of the state ia,

N odern Laundry
Saves Money
By Saving Clothes
Manhattan Expert Explains
Net Bag System
FAR SUPERIOR TO
OLD HOME METHODS
Clothes Actually Look Better
And Wear Longer

Present-day laundry methods, which
preserve clothes as well as clean them,
are far superior to the old home method
of rubbing and scrubbing, according to
Mr.. +. F. Wesley, chief of the Research
Department of Manhattan Laundry.
Mr.. Wesley attributes large part OF
the Manhattan Laundry's success to
their Net Bag System Of washing.
Manhattan Laundry, long a pioneer
in developing better laundering meth
DDS, adopted the Net Bag for washing
clothes six years ago. Clothes, they
agreed, could be washed just as clean
in net bags and would wear longer il
rubbing and scrubbing were eliminated.
Today, Manhattan still features the
Net Bag System, and the activities of
the Laundry's Research Department
are constantly directed toward the per-
lection of cleaner and safer methods OF
washing clothes. Manhattan Laundry
justly deserves the slogan: 1--WE Save
You Money by Saving Your Clothes"
Manhattan famous Net Bag System
of washing, as described by Mr.. Wesley.
follows First, the clothes are assorted
according to their color and material
into individual net bags which bear
the customers name and contain only
that customers articles. Safe in the
nets and protected from all metal or
other hard surfaces, the clothes go into
the washers. Here they are subject to
the gentle cleansing action of swirlinS
hot suds which penetrates every single
thread of each garment and loosenS
every particle of dirt. Only the purest
of Palm Oil soaps and soft, filtered
water are used in washing, after first
having been inspected and tested by the
| Research Department. Many rinsinss
| of fresh, clear water follow, removing
every speck of dirt from the clothes and
leaving the fabrics refreshed and clean.
| They are then dried, starched where
necessary and ironed by the most
modern methods.
That clothes wear longer and look
better when washed in Net Bags has
been proven by test after test. For in.
stance, two shirts, exactly the same,
are washed fifty times each, one in a
net bag, the other by hand. At the end
of the test the net-bag washed shirt
| showed absolutely no signs of wear,
while the hand-washed shirt had be-
come a sad combination of rough edges,
torn seams and broken buttons. Other
tests on all sorts of wearing apparel are
being carried on regularly and in every
case show the Net Bag System to be
far superior in preserving the original
sheen of the cloth. At Manhattan the
Nets Get the Wear and the Clothes

The order does not have its genesis

useless. since we do not import as many
