File Federal Tax Report

The u. S. Internal Revenue Bu-
reau officials urge that since no
Congressional legislation has been
adopted so far to alter the rates
and exemptions of the Federal in
come tax income, tax forms should
be filed without delay upon the
same basis as in 1881. To do this
Immediately would be of great as
sistance, March 1 is the deadline
for filing returns without penalty.
To file returns early gives the in
ternal revenue Office a chance to
dispose of them, insofar as the pre-
liminary stages are concerned,
prior to the last minute rush.
Promptness and accuracy on the
part of taxpayers will result in re-
ducing to a minimum the cost of

| that the Reconstruction Corporation
render some service to thousands of
depositors of small banks which had
failed during the past two years. The
gist of Mr.. Traylor' S proposal before a
Senate Subcommittee was that the
Reconstruction Finance Corporation
be authorized to make loans to closed
banks as well as to financial institu-
tions and others needing it's aid. Such
a step would release substantial
amounts of money to depo3itors
whose funds had been frozen" by
the failure of such banks.
Mr.. Traylor's suggestion made such
an impression that it was embodied
in the Bill as finally passed by Cen
gress. He, more than any other man,
is responsible for the timely assis-
tance that will now be possible fer
many depositors of small banks

]. PHILLIPS SOUSA, FAMOUS
BAND MASTER, DIES SUNDAY
MARCH KING" STRICKEN
WITH HEART ATTACK
Had a CoIorfuI Career and Had
Visited and was Known All Over
the World for His Works

John Phillips Sousa, Americas
colorful and famous bandmaster,
died at Reading, Pa, early Sunday
of a heart attack. The body was
taken to Washington, D. c., Mon
day night for burial "The march
king" who was in his 18th year,
was stricken after attending a
banquet in his honor. His secre-
tary, Miss Lillian Finegan, found
him i'll in his suite in the Hotel
Abraham Lincoln a few minutes
after midnight. She was attract
ed from her room nearby by his
unusual and violent coughing. The
house physician was summoned,
but Sousa died at 1890 o'clock.
His widow, Mrs Jane Sousa; his
daughters, Miss Jane Sousa, of
Sands Point, Long Island, and Mrs.
Hamilton Albert, of New York, and
his son-in-law came Monday. Albert
accompanied the body to Washing
ton by train while the widow and
daughters returned to New York
and went to Washington Tuesday.
The body was escorted from the
hotel to the Pennsylvania station
by an honor guard composed of
members of local posts of the
American Legion. The funeral ser
vices will be held tomorrow,
Thursday, at funeral directors
establishment and burial will be in
Washington. Commander Sousa
went to Reading from Philadelphia
to attend a banquet of the Ringold
Band in observance of its 80th an
niversary. He frequently attended
the organizations anniversary eel
ebrations, and Sunday night con-
Quoted a rehearsal of the band be-
fore the banquet. He appeared
tired and his voice seemed weak as
he addressed the gathering. A
career of more than 65 years be-
fore the public, during which he
composed more than 300 works
and had directed his famous band
in most of the principal cities of
the world, made Sousa one of the
most widely known of contempor-
ary American musicians. Through
out his notable career he remained
to the last a bandmaster. No ac-
tivity could persuade him to aban-
don his baton. His annual tours
at the head of his famous organ
ization carried the music classics
to the smallest communities in the
hope of awakening them to an APP
probation of good music. His
own band was organized in 1892
to fulfill desire he long cherish
ed-the presentation of works OF
great composers before audiences
which other musical organizations
could not reach. Sousa believed
''The Stars and Stripes Forever" to
be his most popular march. Other
favorites were 'aThe High School
Cadets" "Semper Fidelis," ''The
Washington Post" king Cotton .
"El Captain" Liberty Bell, ""Man-
haitian Beach," and THE Thunder
err" His operas included ''The
Smugglers," Queen of Hearts, .
''El Captain" ''Bride-Eelect," THE
Charlatan" and Chris and the
Wonderful Lamp" He was also
the author of several books.

MEMORIAL AT LEWES
Citizens of Kent and Sussex Asked
For Objects of Historical Interest

The Commission appointed by
the Governor, under authority of
the Legislature, to celebrate the
first white settlement in the State
of Delaware, has completed the
erection of a memorial building at
Lewes. It proposes to establish in
this building an historical museum,
which will serve, for the counties
| of Kent and Sussex particularly,
the same use as is now served by
the Historical Society building in
Wilmington. The commission,
therefore, desires to secure, par
ticularly from residents of Kent
and Sussex, the gifts or loan or
objects of historic interest and val
ue to be displayed in this museum.
Proper air-tight and dust-tight
museum cases will be furnished
for the display Of such objects and
they will be preserved with all
possible care. The Commission is
confident that there is in the pos
session of the people of Kent and
Sussex many objects of historic in
terest well worthy of display. OBJ
viously, the Commission will have
to exercise some degree of judg-
ment and discretion in the selec-
ton and exhibition of such articles.
1t is, therefore, requested that
those having in their possession
articles suitable for such display
should submit them for this pur-
pose to the Commission. Old books,
manuscripts, deeds. articles of
household and domestic use, wear
ing apparel, coins, medals, maps,
portraits, articles of furniture, sill
verware, china and glass dating
from the Colonial period or later
will be gladly received and proper
~ displayed and cared for. 1t is
particularly to be noted that such
articles need not be presented out
right, but may be deposited on loan
and will be properly so marked and
accounted for. To aid the Com
mission in its selection of articles
for display, it is desired that those
having such articles should send
in some description of them to the
committee appointed for this pur-
pose, namely, Mrs. Roman Tam
many, Mrs. w. P. Orr and Captain
Harry v. Lyons, all of Lewes, Del
aware. It is hoped that there will
be such response to this appeal as
will result in the assemblage of an
interesting and valuable collection
for display in the building at Lew
es. AS the building will be dedl-
Gated with impressive ceremonies
on May 7th, prompt response to
this appeal is solicited.

TOWN ELECTION The town
election Monday was a tame af-
fair, from the fact that there was
really no division on an issue. Nc
tickets were printed until late in
the morning identical one
that served the past year, thus en-
dorsing their administration as
whole. Another ticket shortly af-
terwards appeared headed "Im-
provement Ticket" that substitute
ed only three or four names. In
quirers could not find any sub
stantial ground of difference, only
that it makes things a little more
lively to have two or more tickets
and the old ticket was elected. The
vote polled was three times as
many as if there had been only one
ticket, but a little over a third of
a full vote. The following was the
result: Alderman, H. G. Budd, 149;

BY CHARLES DUNKLEY,

~ YCHE STADIUM, Evanston, Ill,
May al. Michigan's plucky
track team, scoring in 13 OF
the IS events, carried of the
Western Conference outdoor track and
field championship today TO the accom-
paniment Of record-breaking perform
ances.
Two world records were eclipsed, two
others were tied, and three Big Ten
marks were shattered as the events
reeled off. The record breaking, how
ever. including the new conference
marks. may not-and in the cases OF
the world marks undoubtedly will not
stand. as q Is or 80 mile wind blew at
the backs Of the runners. The weather,
cold and raw, was more suitable 1or
foot ball and kept the crowd OF 5000
spectators huddled and shlvering IN
their seats. .
The wolverines amassed q total Of
50lb points to triumph, with Ohio State
second with 46la. Indiana was third
with 43h, while Illinois was fourth with
311h. The remainder of the points were
divided as follows: Fifth, Minnesota,
1877: sixth, Iowa. TIA; seventh, Wis
consin, IT; eighth, Purdue, Q; ninth,
ONLY Northwestern, the host to 800
athletes, failed to break into the
scoring.
Munn's Mark May Stand.
The only record that probably will
be allowed was in the shotput. Clar-
ence Mum, Minnesotas Au-America
guard, in no way aided by the wind,
t,a yHiSS1a 40 feet Sl,
inches. to exceed the conference record
of 49 feet IL inches established by
Sammy Behr Of Wisconsin two years
ago.
The world records eclipsed were in
the 120-yard high hurdles and the 220-
yard dash. Jack Kellar, blond speed
ster from Ohio State, captured the
highs in IA seconds fat, clipping four
tenths OF a second from the accepted
world mark set by Earl Thomson Of
Dartmouth In 1920 and two-tenths of
a second from the unofflcial world mark
made last Summer in the National A. A.
U. Championships at Lincoln. Nebr., by
Percy Beard Of the New York Athletic
Club.
Donald Bennett. sophomore team
mate of Kellar flashed to victory in
the 220-yard dash in 2O5 seconds, one
tenth of second better than the
world record set by Roland Locke OF
Nebraska in 1926, and later equaled by
George Simpson Of Ohio State, in the
1929 Western Conference champion
ships.
Neither performance, however, will
find its way into the record books, ac-
cording to offlcials, because of the help
ing wind, and the same fate may be-
fall the Western Conference marks, in
cluding the ass seconds by George Sal
ing of Iowa in the low hurdles. Sal
ing's mark tied the accepted world
record set by Charlie Brookins of Iowa,
in 1924, which also stood as the con-
ference record.
Two Double Winners.
Bennett, with Henry Brocksmith. the
hustling Hoosier, were double winners.
Bennett, after taking the century in
95 tieing the world record, came back
to annex the 220-yard dash in better
than world record time. Brocksmith,
lacking competition. logged TO victories
in the mile and two mile events. He
won the mile with q margin Of 10 yards
