water which had been shipped from
South America. The water was in
glass bottles and the bottles were care

|DLENESS
Fifth of D. C. Population to
Some Extent Affected, With
25,000 Known JobIess

Investigations made by The
Washington Times indicate
that about one-fifth of the
population of Washington is
affected by unemployment or
part time unemployment.
This estimate is based on the
generally accepted view that 49,.
900 persons are unemployed in
this city, of which number nearly
10000 are registered at the muni-
cipal employment office, and on
the statistics furnished by the
American Federation of Labor and
other agencies.
On the basis, however, Of $4,000
known unemployed here, of 5000
families forced to seek the asSis-
tance of organized charity last
winter, of a So per cent rate of
unemployment ir the building
trades, and such indications as
are obtainable regarding part-time
employment, the conclusion is
drawn that the number of unem.
ployed with their dependents
would closely approach 100, 900.

Since Mr.. Woodward is the author of Bunk and
other books analyzng the business mind, turned to
the chapter which the last line above indicated 1t is
not subtle piece of work, but bangs one point into

system to make themselves responsible for the system
No Shame in Capitalism
So long as this country functioning properly

that they were merely the intelligent and the

in the fact that we have let the system down. We
haven't begun get the advantages out of capitalism

A Real Danger
suggested some time ago that the great financiers
and industriasts of America ought to out from

that they are the dominant force in the country they
are because vast number of people want them to be

should accept entire responsibility for the welfare OF
the country whole not merely for their own class
IT would be kind of facism (of which, in general

ing liquor with intent to sell,
and released on bond, only to
fall into the clutches of the law
on the next day for an indent-
ical offense.
His first charge brought him
a fine of $3.50 and costs from
Judge Charles w. Woodward at
Rockville, who ordered him to
serve four months in the Mary
land House of Correction in de-
fault of payment.
His second offenSe, which in

which read:
"I was a retired farmer until

Judge Mcmahon explained that
carrying the sign without per-

protested that he did it to find
work and became eloquent in
his denunciation of Rheem. The
judge gave the man two addresses
to apply to for work. He took
his personal bond not to carry
the sign again.
Several months ago Beelitz went

FEDERAL JOBS
|MPER|LED BY
CANDIDATES.
Fred A. GoSneII and Clemens
F. Rauth Notified Not
to Run Again

Because they ran for public
office in Arlington county
last fall on party platforms
and party tickets, Fred A.
Gosnell and Clemens F. Rauth,
employed by the Federal
Government, have been noti-
fled by the Civil Service Com
mission that their jobs will
be in jeopardy if they become
candidates again on party
tickets.
Gosnell was elected and Rauth
defeated. Both ran on the Re
publican ticket.
President Hoover, on May 20,
1881, issued an Executive order
permitting Arlington county resi-
dents to run for office and par.
ticipate in election campaigns
where issues were strictly local
and where no party bias or cleav-
age was evident.
GoSneu and Rauth were candl-
dates for the county board, run
ming on party tickets, the Civil
Service Commission declares, add
ing:
"The commission deems it ad-
visable to inform you and the
proper authorities of Arlington
county that, If in the future
any classified empIOye of the
Federal Government accepts
party nomination or engages
otherwise in partisan political
activity in connection with cam
paignS for election to county Of
ficeS, the commission will be
constrained to suspend and per.
haps withdraw the privileges
granted by the Executive order
Of May 20, 131."
Gosnell is with the Census Bu-
reau, while Rauth is with the De-
partment of Labor.

TAX ON INCOME
URGED FOR
DISTRICT
Efficiency Bureau Forwards
Plea to Senate; One Per
Cent on $4,000

The Bureau of Efficiency,
which has been considering
the proposed Mapes tax bills
for the District, today SUBJ
mitted to the Senate District
Committee a recommendation
for the imposition Of an in
come tax in lieu of the pres
ent intangible property tax.
Changes from the Mapes in.
come tax proposal are suggested
by the bureau so that the pro-
posed District income tax meas
ure would more nearly conform to
the Federal plan of assessment,
although the schedule of rates
would be somewhat lower.
Exemptions Allowed
The Mapes bill, as it passed the
House, permits exemptions Of
$1,000 for a single person, $2,5O0
for a married person and $500
exemption for each dependent
child under 18 and for each addi-
tional person entirely dependent
upon the taxpayer for support.
The bureau suggests that the
same exemptions be used.
Scheduled rates as provided BY
the Mapes bill contain a gradu-
ated scale, ranging from 1 per
cent tax on net income not ex-
ceeding $4,000 to 5 per cent on
incomes not exceeding $4,000.
Bureau Suggests Rates
Rates suggested by the Bureau
of Efficiency are / per cent on
the first $4,000, 2 per cent on
incomes between $4,000 and $780,
600, and upward to 4 per cent on
incomes over $4,000, allowing for
proposed exemptions.
The present Intangible tax as
sessment yields $2;547, 900 an
nually, and approximately the
same yield is expected to be de.
rived from the bureaus income
tax plan. The bureau suggests in
creased corporation taxes to make
up any deficiency.

SUD-F 1ar1nerrS
read yesterday detective story in the manner OF
Dashiel Hammett, but not written by Mr. Hammett IN
which could feel the obvious glee of the author IN
placing two scenes in lavatory for women, one OF
the scenes being an attempted murder The heroine
of the book is a lineal descendant of Mr. Michael
Arlens Iris March, the girl who never let off any
thing; and this means that fundamentally the book
(its name is "No! MOI The Woman') is heavily sentl-
mental the boiled surface pure bunk borrowed
from Hemingway and Hammett And the sense you
get of the authors satisfaction in introducing the
polite words for dirty things and sometimes not even
the polite ones, is the tp-off When Joyce uses the
short AngloSaxon words which cannot be printed
(yet) you get no feeling that he personally, has
triumphed.
Warning to Readers
AS for my novel, shall print the fly-leaf, these,
or similar words: "The reader is informed that the
men and of this story differ not at all from other
human beings in the processes of mastcaton, diges-
tion respiration, and sexual function The reader is
therefore asked that all the usual phenomena
occur as they will not be written down for him. The
authors interest lies in the few minor ways in which
his characters differ from Others and it only when
these differences shown in physical action that the
action will be mentioned"
The book won't SELL anyhow. ..>
