HERE'S BLOW FOR CRIME;
 100 PER CENT TAX VOTED

The senate has voted to put a 100 per cent tax on incomes earned through violations Ot state and federal laws. The action was taken without a record vote in approving an amendment to the revenue bill sponsored by Senator Glenn, Re publican, of Illinois. which he said was to take the govern ment out of partnership" with crime.
 Glenn explained that under existing laws the government collected part of the profits a5 income tax, but under his pro- posal it could confscate the earnings of criminals entirely.
 Huge Crime Profits
 He referred to "vice and ini- Quity, organized gambling syn dicates, that rob the laboring men of their wages, beer rings, liquor rings" and other crimin- al activities as piling up great profits.
 Huge profits running into millions and millions accrue the sale of narcotics Illegally" Glenn said.
 "The proposal changes the position of the government from being a partner in crime to that Of confiscating every cent of the profits if they can be reached"

MYSTERIOUS MONSTER PLIES F. c. WATERS; ITS NO JOKE

A notation in the log of the steamship Princess Adelaide de- scribes the sighting of a mys- terious sea monster-and it's no joke.
 Twice during the past week, while the Princess Adelaide was plying the waters between Van |couver Island and the British
 Columbia mainland, officers said, the creature was seen. It was about forty feet long,
 blue and white and with a bull.
 bous body, and swan with great speed. It was sighted in waters about 100 miles north of Van couver, they said.
 The creature was first seen off Cape Nudge last Thursday at
 a. m. while the Princess Adelaide
 was proceeding north to Prince Rupert. Members of the watch |got a good view of it at a dis ts.nce of several hundred yards, |they said.
 On the return trip south,
 early Sunday evening, it was seen again, between Cape Nudge
 and the mouth of the Campbell
 River, about five miles north of
 it's previous position. Swimming at a great speed,
 officers and a number of pas
 sengers related, the creature Iplowed toward the vessel and swan under it's stern.
 The creature was not a whale, officers said, because it did not
 blow, and they failed to recog-
 nize it as an other great fish.
 On Capt. s. Grey's suggestion, the mystery was accorded recog- milton by being noted in the ships log.

COMMUNITY ASSETS

Almost everyone knows, but some forget, that the financial assets of a city do much to measure it's property. When these assets are increased, pros |perity increases. They are not increased when money is ex- pended away from home.
 Too much emphasis cannot be placed upon the possibilities of getting business for the home city, and keeping it. The con-
 munity that grasps and utilizes
 the knowledge of what buying at
 home means finds local business prospering. Especially is this i'm portant in times of stress, such
 as the present, when the larger cities stretch out farther and
 farther for business and when the country is over run with peddlers and itinerant mer- chants. The community that grasps and utilizes the know ledge of what buying at home means when conditions are aS they are at present, stimulates local business, decreases unem- plOyment and makes for more contentment all around. When persons buy away from home and wake up to the fact that the goods purchased do not mea- sure up to expectations, both purchasers and community suf- fer. The home merchant stands back of the goods he sells and when persons who buy at home have a little hard luck, the home merchants stand back of them also. Those are things to re-

WHAT WOULD YOU
 EXPECT-HOTEL SERVICE?

The camps of the bonus-seek- ing Veterans in Washington, D. c., were pronounced frightful by Dr. William c. Fowler, District of Columbia Health Officer, but fair by the Marine Corps Medl- cal Staff, although the food is declared to be poor.
 Rev. James R. Cox, Catholic priest of Pittsburg and friend of the unemployed addressed the O meul pes!Ape pue sueI9l9A stay until the bonus was paid. He was appointed their mouth piece across the river," as re- 1erring to Capitol Hill and the White House. The bonus issue will be up on Monday next.
 It is believed that the Wash ington Health Officer was not famaliar with the front line conditions under which many of the veterans lived during those never-t be forgotten days in France where men slept along side of bodies of men highly de- composed and sinking to high heaven; or in the mud of Fland- ers's fields during those autumn days when rain came in sheets and there was no shelter except under the tin hats. It is also be- l.eved that the Marine corps medical men knew somewhat of those conditions and made con- parison of the veterans dugouts in Washington with some of the 'dugouts of those days when america's best went to Europe to

settle the war and save the world for democracy. Anyhow, descriptions of the veterans habitations in Washington are not such as would invite the elite of any town. And the reason the veterans are resting in such camps today is because they are n need of that bonus which the government has promised them, payable fifteen years hence. If they had any money they cer-
 tainly would not be sleeping ill empty warehouses, or in any old hole into which they could crawl.

TELL BEATEN BY BIRD
 TALE; so IS JUDGE

The shade of William Tell was waited into the courtroom of Judge Jim Sharp, Cucamonga, Cal, when three Mexicans charged with game law viola tions "told such a unique story that Judge Sharp suspended most of the fine.
 Santacruz made the judges jaw drop when he related that a monster hawk scooped up the tiny robin Santacruz was charg- ed with shooting and flew high over the huntsman's head. San tacruz said he "shot the robin out of the hawks claws, but missed the hawk"
 When Santacruz's two com panions corroborated the story Judge Sharp said:
 "You fellows have William Tell beat a mile. I'll suspend $15 oi $25 fine each, and give you a month to pay on the strength of the most fantastic story I ever heard in court"
