Make More Taxpayers"
 Says Australian Official

BANBERRE, June 17-Assenting there are not enough taxpayers in Australia, c. J. Cerruty, Federal Auditor General, recommends that the Government create some.
 He argues that since only 265,- 900 of the country's 3,500,000 vot- CTS pay income taxes, the assess ment should be levied on all who earn more than $10 weekly
 This, he says, would make them realize the responsibilities of citi- zenship since many now vote care lessly because it costs them noth- ing to do so.

Survey Shows
Whole Country
Enjoys Revival
Textile Industry Leading, Says N
Y. District Chief; Oil Business
Prosperous
All District Leaders Agree Gains
Will Be Held Despite Seasonal
Declines

Evidence that the business of the
country is moving slowly toward
recovery is seen in a nationwide
survey by the Ethyl Gasoline cor
poration, owned jointly by General
Motors corporation and Standard
Oil Company of New Jersey.
Division managers of the corpor-
alton located in the major indus
trial areas of the country concur
in their reports to headquarters, an
announcement said, that business
and trade is experiencing the first
sign of revival, and their judgment
is that the gains will be held sub
stantially in spite of any seasonal
declines.
R. L. Jordan, reporting for the
Chicago division which includes
Illinois, Minnesota, Michigan and
Wisconsin, justified his optimistic
views on the outlook for that re-
gion of citing improved employ
ment conditions, fewer retail fail
ures, increased bank clearings and
recovery in commodity prices.
In the New York district J. E.
Boudreau, division manager, assert
ed that distinct gains had been
made in all lines of industry.
The textile industry, the New
York division manager found, was
leading all Others but the gains in
the heavy industries, he said, have
also been Impressive
The New England region is
generally considered to he in bet
ter shape than other parts of the
nation," M. A. Taylor, manager of
the Boston division stated. He Cit
ed the likelihood that the lighter
industries, which are largely repre-
sentative of New England, would
emerge from the depression sooner
than the heavier industries.
o. B. Lewis, manager of the
Baltimore division, which includes
the South Atlantic states, found
that "statistically the oil business
is in the best shape it has been for
several years, and that next years
operations should be profitable"

his selection was the same as Miss
Parker's.
"I've only met Miss Parker in
my life," he said, "and we never
talked of cellar-doors. l don't like
this List because l don't like soft
words. l like the hard sounds, the
short words, like talk. Cuspidor is
a good word, too"
Ring Lardner not only scofed
at the Funk list, he gave a list of
his own.
"Gangrene is the first word he
said, 'Ait is the second, scram is
the third-but wait until l finish
mango is the fourth, wretch the
fifth, and Smoot, with a small S.
is the sixth. Look it up.
"Guzzle is No.. 7, Monabee is
eighth. I know it's a proper name
And blute is No. 9. A blute, sill
is a smoker who doesn't inhale. The
10th word is Creme. A creme is q
man who inhales but doesn't
smoke"

Those Ten
Words Hit
Hard Luck

The 80 most beautiful words
in the English language" a list ad-
vanced by Wilfred ]. Funk, poet
and dictionary publisher, ran into
some rough comment among New
York's literati.
The best that was said for any
one of the 10-dawn, hush, lul-
laby, murmuring, tranquil, mist,
luminous, chimes, golden, melody
was that lullaby is nice.
That statement was made by
Fannie Hurst, but she added:
Dawn is like a dead cat. Lumin-
Gus is good, but not as good as ly-
ric. I think these are more beauti-
full; serenity, peace, beauty itself,
vitality, mercy, madonna. No, ]
don't think much of the list"
Dorothy Parker, poet, said she
considered cellar door" the most
beautiful word, but that those she
liked to see best were "cheque'
and "enclosed."
Hendrix Willem Van Loon also
spoke up for "cellar-door" and he
expressed great surprise when told

prominent business man. He was
driving his stenographer home in
his new car, and as the car passed
a more or less notorious parking
place a tire ON the car blew out.
And as the tire blew out a skunk
appeared, making it unwise for the
business man to alight from the
car and attempt to repair the tire.
He didn't want to spoil a brand
new tire by driving on it flat, and
he feared to stay n the secluded
parking place with his young stem
ographer on account of what peo-
pie might think. He knew his
wife would be frantic-and yet he
dared not move away from the
spot, or attempt to fix the tire.
Along came a State trooper
and he took in the situation at a
glance, and drove the skunk away
with stones.
The middle-aged business man
fixed the flat, drove his stenogra-
pher home, and raced to his own
home, an hour iate-ro find that
the gallant State trooper had tele-
phoned, emitting the detail of the
young stenographer, to explain his
absence.
