GRETA N|SSEN,
WAYBURN PART

7 HOLLYWOOD, Calf, Sept. %
N1NSO.-Two prominent film
Sand couples today were ready to
call it quits.
Nils Asther and Vivian Duncan,
according to their attorneys, have
separated because of "incompati-
bility of temperament.
Weldon Hepburn and Greta
Nissen have separated because,
according to Miss Nissen, they
''couldn't agree about things that
you can't get along without agree
ang about"
The breakup between Asther,
khe tall, handsome Swede, and
Miss Duncan, famous in musical
comedy along with her sister as
''TopSy and Eva" was unexpected
and followed closely a denial by
Miss Duncan that the departure
Of Asther from their Hollywood
home meant anything.
Hepburn and Miss Nissen, how
ever have been on the verge Of
separating several times since
their marriage six months ago.
Attorneys for Asther and Miss
Duncan have spent considerable
time in conference over a property
settlement and divorce details.
Her lawyer said:
"They like different things.
Miss Duncan is a trOuper by
nature, and loves to go places
and do things. Mr.. Asther is
almost a recluse. His hobbies
are reading and riding horse
back. He Is a lover of nature"
Hepburn is the son of Col. Wy
att Golson Franks. of the 800
Eblock of Connecticut Avenue,
Washington, D. C.
Weldon Hepburn, the husband
of Greta Nissen, is a former Cen
trail High School athlete and the
son of Col. Wyatt Franks, of the
War Department. His real name
Is Wendell Hepburn Franks.
Brought here by his parents
when he was years old, Hey
burn later attended Cook graded
school and Central High. He also
attended George Washington Uni
tVersity for a brief period.
His father today said:
J "If they are separating, it Is
news to u.s."

COURT POWDERS
BAN

NEW YORK, Sept. % G.N.sO.
The question of whether the COM
missioner of licenses is a poten-
tial censor rested today in the
hands of Supreme Court Justice
Bernard L. Shientag.
The question arose from con-
tentions of attorneys for two bur
lesque houses closed Monday by
order of Mayor Mckee. The
broad discretionary powers given
the commissioner by the city
charter make him virtually a
censor, they said. Decision was
reserved after argument.
Meanwhile, subpoenaS were
served on 20 theater owners for
alleged violations of the building
department code.

Funds Ordered For
Game-FiSh Lake at
Marshall by big g

Assurance that development Of
Lake Marshall into q game-fish lake
will be started at once was received
by members Of the Marshall develop
ment committee which went to St.
Paul Thursday.
The plan to develop the lake was
approved by the state game and Ash
, department and funds for the work
were ordered released by the "Big
Three"
Ten members Of the development
committee met with w. D. Stewart,
game and fish commissioner, and
Chief Engineer Youngdahl Thursday.
The development plan was fully ex-
planned to them and received their
| approval. The group then had an
audience with the "Big Three" with

What Others Think
The Editors Mistake

An editor of a weekly paper commenting on the
fact that his paper sometimes made mistakes in its
news columns, says he made one in his last issue
and that good subscriber told him about it.
He goes on to relate that about the same day
there letter in his postoffce box that did not
belong to him; he called for No. SO the phone and
got 1873; he asked for spool of No. so thread and
got No. 60; he got his milk bill and there mis-
take of 10 cents in his favor; he felt sick and the
doctor said he eating too much meat when he
hadn't tasted meat for two months; the preacher turn
ed in his church notes with the name of the ladies'
aid society president misspelled and the editor got
the blame for it; the garage man said the jtney
missing because it needed timer and he cleaned
spark plug and the 1ivver has since. Yes,
indeed editors do make mstakes-and so about every
thousand years or SO, do other people-Exchange.
We hear it said and then by those who are
against the income tax that drives business of
the state They claim the Chevrolet Motor, Company
closed it's plant at GAINESVILLE Wisconsin, because of
the income tax being too high.
The Chevrolet and Fisher Body plants both be-
longing to the General Motors company at GAINESVILLE
in the years 1926 to 1884, made profit of $24 2O5
They paid income taxes to the state of Wisconsin.
during those six years, of $1,eS1,19O That leaves
them, after paying the income tax the sum of $22,
621 015.
The amount invested in the plant of these
Germs $3,199660.42 in 1926 and $500, 45422 in
1881. These figures taken from the Wisconsin
State Tax Commission. These figures show that the
General Motors company did we'll at GAINESVILLE.
According to statement in the GAINESVILLE Argus,
published in GAINESVILLE, Chevrolet put out from 10000
to 900 automobiles per year. Since the plant made
$24,252,205 in the six years that would pro-
fit of between 500 and 500 per 1t would leave
about $40 per profit after paying the income
In other words the income tax about Sc per
We will leave to reasonable men to say if this was
crushing tax.
There is thing phoney about this GAINESVILLE
stuff Was it election propaganda?
There is another thing, the anti income tax news
papers do not mention That is about industries NOV
ing into Wisconsin.
According to the reports Of the Secretary of State
of Wisconsin 693 corporations formed in
Wisconsin in the first half of 1892
Why is it that New York. North Carolina, Massa-
chusetts, which heavy manufacturing states have
and keep the income tax? If the income tax drives
industries out these states, (which not radically
certainly would be wise enough not to do harm to
themselves by keeping the income tax.
Not one of these states has replacement provi-
sion property tax offset provision, either in their
constitution their income tax law-Senator Harry
Spindler, Buffalo, MINI.

News Letter Carries
Bovee Weed Philosophy

The following article appears this
week in the news letter of the Uni
versity farm at st. Paul more of the
publicity Redwood county has receiv-
ed for its progressiveness in the war
on weeds.
"A special one-week countrywide
| drive on Canada thistles is yearly
feature of the cooperative weed fight
carried on in Redwood county, home
Of the unique weed-fighting plan now
operating in about 40 Minnesota
counties. In connection with the re-
cent thistle Time in Redwood"
County Agent Nate Bovee rooted
up" the following bit of weed phil
osophy:
"A weed is only as bad as it's root.
On the other hand, a weed is no
worse than its root. Some weeds,
such as Creeping Jenny and Leafy
Spurge. are mighty hard to root out
as they are extremely deep rooted, all
the way to or IL feet. The top of
one of these weeds covers a multi
tude of roots. The thistles are pretty
tame in comparison. Owning to the
generous moisture supply, there is
good possibility that all weed seeds in
the ground have terminated this year
so that by killing them, one can be
fairly sure that he has at least ex-
tracted their cuDe root.
"In order to get at the root of the
question, why not help to see that all
thistles are cut, plowed or sprayed,
then bum good che-'root' from some
politician and help root for Redwood,

Plato and Glencoe failed Thursday
morning in an effort to halt about 40
trucks from Marshall, Cottonwood
and Westbrook which drove through
their lines in massed formation.
The trucks assembled east of Red
wood Falls about 2:3O a. m. and did
not encounter picketers until they
neared Plato. Three cars abreast
led the way through the lines follow
ed by the trucks in single file. The
picketers tried to open the endgates
of the trucks but were fought off.
One man was knocked off onto the
pavement and suffered bruises.

Bureaucracy's Growth

some striking illustrations Of the amazing growth
= Of government departments, bureaus and commits
sons during recent years. He calls especial attention
to the expansion Of the Federal Trade Commission
whose expenditures increased from $f84016 IN 1915 to
$1,ss7,So2 in 1891, more than ten fold.
Yet, this commission, which is supposed to
guate competition and prevent violations Of antitrust
laws, has no power to enforce its decisions. More
than so per cent Of its decisions which have been tested
in the courts have been reversed the litigation
ing great expense to the government
Other instances of bureaucracys growth pointed
out by Mr. Battey include the fact that the Depart
ment of Commerce increased its expenditures more
than 400 per cent in 10 years. while the Department
