STATE soLoNs OK INCOME TAX

Phoenix June 19-The Arizona
senate adopted today and sent to
the house a bill to place a tax on
net incomes, one of the major
requests made by Governor E.
B. Moeur in his call for the
special session.
The vote was II to 2, Senators
Angins and Riggs of Cochise
county voting against it. Sen.
Riggs explained he was voting
no because he was convinced the
state budget cannot be balanced
until the expenses Of the state
are reduced.
AS it went to the house the
bill had been amended by the
senate to make the tax effective
January |, 1894 on net incomes
of 1888.
The senate adopted and sent
back to the house for concur
renee the house bill correcting
the motor vehicle code to place
tax on the gross receipts Of
motor common carriers.
The section was omitted when
the motor vehicle laws we're re
codified by the regular session,
AS it came to the senate from
the house the bill would have
placed tax of % per cent on
the gross receipts of passenger
carriers, one half of one per cent
more the tax imposed by the
original law. The senate chang
ed the rate back to 2 per cent.
Before the measure can go to
the governor house and senste
must agree on the rate.
The senate also added a sec
ton 10 the bill limiting the
hours of drivers of motor vehicle
common carriers may be kept on
duty without rest.
The intangible tax was amend
ed again by the senate today,
the major change being a reduc.
ton OF the rate on bank deposits
and other money from two mills
to one mill on the dollar.

SILVER REVIVAL.

One of the problems confront.
ing the World economic Confer
ence, on which there seems to be
good chance of reaching agree
ment, is silver.
Every important nation has
felt the baleful effects of abnor.
mally low silver prices. 1t has
seen foreign trade shrink and
come close to passing away en-.
tirely. 1t has observed the
collapse of the purchasing power
of half the worlds people, who
use silver as their money metal.
And it has discovered that gold
is incapable of carrying alone the
volume of world commerce.
There is not enough of it-and a
heavy share of what exists is
held tightly by two countries.
Stabilizing silver is not neces.
sarily BIZ metallism of the old
16-to-1 brand. It means that
the governments of the world
will reach an agreement for
keeping the price of silver at q
more or less fixed ratio to the
price of gold, whether that re.
latiou is 16-to-1 or 100-to-1. 1t
is a proposal in the interest of
world economic stability.
Here in the United States.
there is another phase to it: If
the mining industry is given a
new lease on life through silver
resuscitation, thousands Of men
will be put TO work and millions
of dollars will find their way into
the channels of industry.

ECONOMIC HIGHLlGHTS
June 19, 1888

June 19, 1888
IF the world is sick enough
to have gained any sense. the
(Economic) Conference will be a
success.
So spake James Middleton
Cox. one of the American dele
CATION, just before sailing. His
attitude jibes with that of most
obervers. They believe that the
world is sick enough; they know
like wise that a sick world is not
necessarily sensible one. When
George V. Inperator and Rex,
formally opened the Conference,
none felt that it would be an un'
qualified success, many we're un
abable to believe that it would
produce much of definite and
permanent worth. There are too
many warning interests at play !;
as in a drama, plots and counter
plots will underlie the seemingly
smooth tenor of the proceedings.
It is a safe forecast that dur
ing the first weeks. the delegates
will be sparring for position,
testing their ground. There will
a great many polite speeches,
pretty gestures. atstruse dis
cussions. The real work will
come latee. There will by a
continuous. thinly. .veiled battle
between various sectional inter
ests, opposed PHILOSOPHERS. AS
the Conference opens. the world
it faces might bs described,
brief fo. in this manner:
A Europe which is closer to
war than at any time since 1913
with armed troops patroling un.
friendly borders and looking
jealously at alien lands. An in
creasing spirit of nationalism in
many major powers, Of which
Germany under Hitler is the
classic example. In the Far
East, a growing spirit of In
perialism oa the part Of the
Japanese, which must eventu-
ally cause the Chinese to de
velop still greater enmity for
all foreigners. Widespread un
employment aud industrial de
bility in every country. Chaotic
money systems and tottering
currency standards. And. in
most powers, fear and distrust of
the rest of the world.
These matters are not discuss
ed in the Conferences agenda.
But they will have much to do
with the policies of the dele
gates, and they will influence
the proceedings at every turn.
What the agenda does specif
cally mention for discussion fol
lows:
Monetary aud credit policy;
prices, resum ption of movement
of capital; restrictions on inter
national trade; tariff and treaty
policy; organization Of produc
ton and trade.
These eh-sounding labels
and subjects they cover are
Greek to ninety per cent of the
| worlds people. But the econom
ist can translate them into terms
of jobs. wage scales, living
standards. If the Conference
collapses, it will be because the
politicians. dominated by racial
prejudice and nationalistic pas
sion, Go the debating. If it sue
ceeds, it is because the world
has at last become SO sick that
it is willing to go the limit for a
cure.
On the eve of the Conference.
the Department of Commerce
announced that world trade
slumped to $26, 100000. 900 last
year, as compared with $68 900,
900, 900 in 1929. Not all this is
the result of depression. Much
of it is the result of such slogans
as Buy British Buy Ameri
can"-even Buy in bonneville" !"
1t is the announced purpose of
the Conference to demonstrate
the folly that such slogans re.
present, and do away with them.

Of great importance to the
nation is President Roosevelts
program on the relationship OF
government and business. Re-
search indicates that cut throat
competition, with the resulting
tremendous waste, is a strong
influence in prolonging depres
sion. inasmuch as it forces
prices down and prevents them
from rising. II the past, the
anti trust laws have stood in the

The Presidents plan is to abro

Forecast in New Mexico

dry for II years, voted today on
Tenouncing national prohibition.
The State prohibition clause
also was in the New Mexico con.

Hdes for local option districts.
Indications were that a 2-to-1

Taxation threatened at the last
minute to overshadow repeal as
the important issue. A vigorous
campaign was conducted for and
against passage of a property tax

WET VICTORIES
CONCEDED IN
|DAHO,N.M

BOISE, Idaho, Sept. 10 (I.N.S0
idaho went to the polls today
with little better than 10000 Of
the 10000 votes cast in the last
presidential election expected to
be registered on the repeal ques-
ton.
Despite last-minute fighting
statements" of dry chieftains, a
2-to-1 wet victory was popularity
conceded.
Although Idaho has been made
q battle ground of debate among
the leaders of both causes, the
public apparently has failed to
respond enthusiastically, as testi-
fled by the comparatively light
turnout at the polls. The pub
lie apathy was heightened by
failure of United States Senator
William E. Borah to take a pub
! aic stand on the issue.
Another contributing element
has been the fact that only one
member of the Idaho Congress
gional delegation, Representative
Thomas ]. Coffin, has expressed
himself publicly on the repeal
issue. Coffin is an enthusiastic
wet.
A last-minute message sent by
Postmaster General James Far
ley to Governor Ben Ross urg-
ing leadership toward repeal had
brought no response when the
polls opened today.
Feverish attempts by dry lead
ers to solicit any active public
support for their cause from Sen
ator Borah also were fruitleSS.

WASHINGTON FASHIONS By wilma LdviNe

Behold, in our picture today,
two actresses from the films,
wearing spots. If you don't
look closely, you might think
they have on winter clothes,
but another close scrutiny and
you will see subtle differences,
points that make it perfectly
plain that the clothes are new.
Skirt lengths are one thing,
just an inch longer than last
fall, but an important inch.
And hats, more mannish in the
case of Miss Torres, only
slightly different in the tilt Of
Miss Carroll's hat. For that
is who they are, Nancy Carroll
on the left and Raquel Torres
on the right.
Suits Take Fur
Nancy Carroll's costume is
too dark for us to see much
about it except the spots. It
shows here decided preference
for leopard, and it shows her
tasteful selection of accessories.
She evidently knows that the
spots of the leopard are suf-
ficient trimming, so she chooses
perfectly plain black bag, shoes
and gloves, and her hat is
simple. She is wearing a suit
with a short jacket, which is
hard to see in the picture.
The band of leopard below the
waist is a, tiny peplum. This
shows that tailored suits will
not have the entire stage to
themselves, and that all who
can have more than one suit
will include a fur-trimmed suit
in their wardrobes, too.
New Fitted Jacket
Raquel Torres is wearing a
jacket that shows the new
lines for spring, short, snug
fitting, and with flaring collar.
Many of the new jackets have
accompanying muff, just like
hers. With this jacket she
wears a simple tweed skirt in
beige, with a silk blouse, and a
beige felt hat This type jacket
is already being shown in
Washington stores for spring,
and if you can't find just what
you want, a furrier can make
it up for you. 1t would be a
little bit harder to find a suit
just like Nancy Carroll's, though
there are many smart fur
trimmed suits being shown
already. Next week we will
show some good new fur scarf
arrangements.

hearing Is not impaired, but
words no longer mean anything
to him. They might just as we'll
be meaningless grunts, so far
as his ability to interpret them
is concerned. Such a patient,
however, can initiate the sounds
he hears, without realizing
what they stand for. In other
words, the motor or outgoing
nerve paths are intact, but the
incoming, sensory ones are dis
eaSed.
Alexia, or inability to read,
is still another form of aphasia.
To such a patient his native
language, when printed, looks
like so much Chinese.
There are those who confuse
aphasia with amneSia, which,
however, means poor memory
forgetfulnesS. 1t may be due to
poiSonS in the body, to a run
down physical condition or to
inattention. Usually it can be
corrected. If, on the other
hand, amnesia is pronounced
and for certain definite things
the patients own identity,
for eXample-the trouble is Sc
rious and requires expert med
ical help, the same as does
aphaSia.

a single stop, and z knew that
he must not win the first trick
in any event. Dummy played
the 8, and BIS j was allowed
to win.
B led back his last club, and
AS Ace captured dummy's @,
but when the declarer's X won
the third trick of the suit, B
held no more clubs.
The declarer's @ of diamonds
found A void of the suit. He let
go his lowest heart, thereby
asking his partner to lead a
spade when he could so so.
BIS K won the trick. He could
not lead back club, but he
led back his lowest spade. The
declarer's Ace won the trick and
A dropped a come-on with
his 7.
Five diamonds were run off
in dummy. It made no differ
ence what B let go. He held
no winners. Upon the last two
diamonds led the declarer dis
carded his Q and J of spades.
Dummy's 10 was just as good,
and the declarer wished to
squeeze A, who had to make
five discards. First he let go
his lowest spade. He held his
three remaining hearts for
awhile, letting go all three of
his clubs.
At the tenth trick A was
obliged either to let go his top
spade, thereby making good the
10 in dummy, or to let go his
lowest heart, leaving that suit
unprotected. He chose to do
the latter. The K of hearts
was lead from dummy. Then
the Ace of hearts picked up the
twelfth trick. giving the declar
er game and dropping the un-
guarded Q at his left, thus max
ing good the declarer's ], and
giving him one trick over his
game contract.
Had the declarer won the
first club trick, either with his
@ or K, his opponents would
have won five club tricks and
one diamond trick, and he
would have been down two
tricks on his contract. Obserb-
ing the rule on his club play
gave the declarer three added
tricks.

Compilations bloom, take on
freshness, when they have regu-

the facial tubing at night,
give the skin, five-minute tap
ping, forcing in cold cream
or a heavier emolient. Better
not do too much kneading, it's
likely to push the flesh into

up, slapping the skin surface
with flattened palms. Any
treatment that starts blood
streams sprinting is bound to
be of benefit.
