she is, nevertheless, one of the
most bewildering and satisfactory
heroines, and her death is likely
to reduce you to pulp. That soft,
slow, rather profundo voice, al
ways, one of Ia NaZimova's chief
virtues, has never been placed to
better advantage, and the deft
use of her hands (another of her
famous characteristics never
more delicately manipulated.
When she is gone, and the last
scene is still before you, although
there is Earle Larimore to carry

still wondering If there has ever

Washington, April 2l.-R-After
taking testimony against the treas

the senate finance committee Thurs
day closed hearings on the billion dol

Secretary Mills has estimated the
check tax would yield about sos, 000,-
600 but its opponents asserted 1t
would harm business, the farmer, be
unfair to those issuing small checks
and would yield less revenue.
Clyde L. King, Pennsylvania secre-
tary Of revenue, protested against the
retroactive provisions for revaluation
of estates to allow for shrinkage,
which he said would cost the states
$lso000, 900.
Other witnesses objected to stock

Harrison Of Mississippi, ranking DEM
ocrat of the committee, predicted the
bill will be ready for the senate by
May l.
Two weeks Of hearings have
brought severe protests from the in
dustries selected by the house for
taxation and counter proposals for
a general sales tax. Encouraged by
this, Senator Reed (Rep. Pa.), an
nounced he would press it for a
favorable action by the committee
