is holding this mineral ground for that purpose. To meet this situation it has become customary to grant exemptions where wild mineral land is undergoing development, this in proportion to the amount of development or operation in any one year. Where operation has reached the point of production, taxes are applied solely to bullion tax.
 There is no reason why the Ter ritorial Legislature should not fer ret out this taxable source and enact some law which would reach it. An additional hundred thous- and dollars in revenue would go far toward relieving the burden now carried by other businesses and would carry the element Of justice.
 Alaskan precious mineral land should not be held for speculation, any more than coal or oil land, which is hedged about by provis- ions seeking to prevent speculative holding.

Safer Auto Driving
 Depends On Public
Until Citizens Of State Insist On Strcter Penalties For
 Offenders Abuses Will Persist

ditions and in the environment presented, is the real cause of most of the disaster. To put 1t another way, eighty-five out of a hundred persons exercise ordinary care and are safe. Fifteen do not, and are unsafe.
 Tt is granted that among the fatal fifteen, there are many whose conduct is not criminal, but who get into difficulty through lack of judgment, or from some similar cause. These, as has been for merly pointed out, need friendly advice, education, practice and teaching. This article is pointed, not at this group but at the crim- inal offender, the drunken opera tor, the evader, the reckless driv- CT and the moron.
 "1f all the people could begin to see and understand the general highway situation as the policemen see it, they would more generally appreciate the awful consequences of allowing car to be driven by u reckless operator, and might in sist on the establishment of a fashion in severe punishment which might result to the everlast- ing credit and benefit of all.
 If the policemen and the courts arc to stop reckless driving. the public in general must give its support. Why is the number of drunken operators so great at this period of history? The answer is shouted from the housetops-'Be- cause the public stands for It. And so it is. also, with the other automobile crimes"

 Bridge Meet in N. Y.

Contract bridge continues in popularity throughout the country, according to Mrs John c. Moriarty of Woodlawn terrace and Mrs Charles Woodlock of Pennington avenue, prominent local instructors in the Culbertson system, who have just returned from New York where they attended what was pro- nounced the most important con- vention of Contract teachers ever assembled. At it's conclusion, Mrs Moriarty and Mrs Woodlock were awarded a special certificate of authority to teach the Culbertson System for 1883 and were made Associate teachers of the Culbcrt- son National Studios.
 The convention which lasted for three days at the Waldorf-Astoria hotel, was addressed by the worlds leading opponents of the game. among them MT and Mrs Ely Gull bertson, who completely analysed for the first time the principle of plastic valuation," by the applica- ton of which the combined strength of two hands is accurately valued. Oswald Jacoby. secretary or the Onlteu oIdleS DTluBe tSSu- citation, also addressed the 300 as- sembled teachers.
 Other new conventions of the game, each of which was analysed by an outstanding authority, in- ciuded a Four-Five No trump con. vention for bidding Gyand Slams. The Culbertson Studios maintain il staff of experts who scientifically test all the new developments of the game. The successful money winning plays of experts are sub jected to rigid laboratory expcri- ments. If statistics prr,'r thu these winning plays are adaptnblc to the needs of average social an1 expert play. they are incorporated into the system. If experiments prove that they are applicable onlv in unusual circumstances. they are reflected. Tn this way the teachers of the Culbertson System are en- abled to present the newest Ideas as they develop from the play of the worlds experts.

marks of spring day and the warmness was the subject of much comment. There was hardly a bit of snow or ice to be seen in any part of the city. As a result auto travel was made 100 per cent safer than it was during the week but walking was slightly muddy and damp.
 Riddles with new sleds, skates and skis from Santa Claus were the only downhearted ones. They were deprived of the opportunity to try out their new gifts. How ever, they are expected to cheer up when they hear that the wealth erman has promised more snow and freezing weather before the winter rolls by.
 Christmas eve in several sections of the city groups went about the streets singing Christmas carols. Indoor singing also took place.
 The tree on the Green presented a pretty picture Christmas eve as 1t was lighted up. It was admired by the thousands of late Christ mas shoppers who thronged the central streets of the city.
 During the present week numer- Christmas parties Twill be held by church and civic groups. Pageants will also be presented. Tomorrow afternoon the cradle roll depart ment of the First Lutheran church Sunday school will hold a party in the parish house on Grove street. Santa Claus will distribute pres- ents.

SALES TAX HAS TAKEN ANOTHER
 GRASP ONHOUSE
Reported To-day Demo- cfat Leaders Will Join Republicans to Put It Over Before March 4
By WILLIAM F. KERRY United Press Stan CorrespOndpnt)

Washington, Dec 27-CUP)- Democratic house leaders joined republicans to-day in a non-par- tisan drive to enact a general manufacturers sales tax.
 The strange political coalition gave promise of sweeping the con- troversial measure through the House. Some insurgents who up- set the democratic sales program last session may be expected. how ever, to fight 1t again as a levy which would fall chiefly on the working classes.
 Republican House Leader Shell said he could deliver 15O votes for the sales tax. Just 70 out of the more than 200 democratic votes in the House would be enough to as- sure it's passage.
 The sudden decision of the dem ocratic leaders to support tht sales !ax was announced by Chairman Collier of the Ways and MeaDs committee, long a foe of the s1les levy, after budget balancing conference" with Speaker Garner.
 Collier said he had been unable to find any other form of revenue measure which would bring m the 500,000,000 in new taxes nedeed lin order to have a balanced budg- ct when Governor Roosevelt. comes into office" And, he added, the budget must be balanced"
 From the political standpoint, as long as further taxes appear ines capable, the democrats doubtless would prefer to enact them during the close of the republican Hoover administration rather than have the Roosevelt regime carry this re- sponsibility.
 Further, the democrats original ly had counted on considerable immediate revenue from beer. There are increasing indications, however, that President Hoover will kill the beer bill with a veto in event it gets through the Sem ate.
 It also was suggested in some quarters that the sales tax right be coupled with beer in q single meas ure In all effort to force the presi- dent to agree. to prohibition modi- fication.
 Collier summoned the Ways and MeanS committee IO meet Januafy for q "roundtable discussion of the revenue situation in which par tisanship will not enter.'
 Collier did not indicate what percentage of sales tax he would recommend to the committee. The administration wants a levy of 2 per cent on nearly all goods except food. The sales tax would SUD- plant most of the ''nuisance" taxes enacted last sumfner, but Collier indicated he believed the bank check, electrical energy and gaso- line taxes should be continued to assure the treasury enough funds to put the government on a pay as-you-go" basis.
 Although a number of senate leaders consistently have favored the sales tax, the outlook for the measure there was considered much less promising than in the House. Because of the lack of re- strictions on oratory in the upper house and the amount of essential work to be done before the session ends in March. there is always the possibility that opponents of the sales tax could filibuster it to death

LOUIS MARTINO
 CASE CONTINUED
He Was Involved in an Auto Accident on Meri-

HAD NO PERMIT

The case of Louis Marine of Berlin. charged with operating a motor vehicle without a license, was continued in police court to- day until tomorrow morning. Mar ino's car was invilved in an acci- dent on the Meriden road yester- day with a machine driven by Frank Kleinschmidt of Hauser street. When questioned by the po- lice Marine, who claims to be a licensed operator, was unable to produce his permit.
 Joseph Martino, 20, of A East Liberty street was placed on proba- ton for six months. He-was one of four young lads captured early Saturday morning in an attempt to enter chain grocery store on Baldwin street.
 Compared to Manday mornings 8 list of cases today's docket was unusually small and the business required of court officials was of a routine nature. Yesterday, the results of too much holiday spirit and Spirits were plainly evil dent.

Hartford, Dec 27--When the time comes that the citizens of the state adopt an attitude which, as a reflection of conditions, will in- sist upon the making of examples of some of the worst offenders against safety in motor vehicle operation, better performance and an improved situation for all may be expected, Robbins B. Stoeckel, commissioner of Motor Vehilces, says in bulletin, entitled "The Trouble Makers" which will be ready for distribution this week.
 Reciting facts showing improve ment in the general traffic field, Commissioner Stoeckel says, how ever, that net gains, meaning less accidents, less injuries, deaths and damage are still not marked enough to justify conjecture as to whether the betterment really is the expression of improved con- duct or is simply chance"
 Conclusions of those who, for l15 years have been studying the problem, meet on tho basic fact that "the percentage of violators or perhaps it might be better cx- pressed to call them trouble-mak | !, remains the same, or nearly the same. throughout the whole. period" he adds. Fifteen out or every hundred are responsible Tor all the deaths, injuries and dam- age suffered. Quite true. many Of these either kill or injure them selves or damage their own prop erty only, but aside from that. hi- teen constitute the menace for all.
 Among them, are criminals, in that they are persons whose VIII. full actions, on highways ana streets as traffic participators, carry danger to themselves and to others. These criminals are al most always motor vehicle opera tors, and 1t is with them that dis cipline. as a part of education and of the educational theory, ought to deal firmly and correctly.
 "The car manufacturer has pro- vided a vehicle second to none in history. It is so good that 1t has made the whole world over, and created a new civilization which will probably be known through out time as the Automobile Age There Is nothing about the, car which excuses criminality In its use but it Is so built, with possible. expressions in its operation which are sometimes beyond the ca- pacity of many people that it is easy to overdo with 1t. Consequent- ly, it requires from it's operator vigilant watchfulness that he may keep within his ability.
 "Highway and street builders have performed their full part in providing adequate safety engin- eering both for direction and fof safeguards. They have done everything possible to make and maintain safe ways upon which anyone in possossion of average in telligence, willing 10 be reasonably cautious, can operate safely. And yet, notwith standing this me chanical perfection and these prac-- tical safeguards. the condition of difficulty persists.
 "Only one conclusion remains tenable; recklessness. including in that classification every case where there is lack of "ordinary care" that care which 2 man of average ability would give under the con
