How a chance remark may be per-

Opened to traffic in 1882, the
road was only moderately successful
in its early years. In 1885 the own

court. HatterseIy in his decision
ruled against Shubat, sustaining the
contention Of the Glacier county
treasurer that the law provided for
an interest charge upon the s per-
cent penalty as well as upon the
amount OF taxes delinquent.
The case was carried to the su-

Judge Hattersfey's decision and a
Judgment for Shubat.

previous supreme court ruling has
decreed that no action can be taken

action Is instituted within one year
after issuance Of the tax title.
The interest charge on delinquent
taxes Is figured at the rate of 5 per

According to John %. Mcdonald
Cascade county treasurer, it Is viz
tuallv certain that the method en-
pl0yed In Glacier county OF charg-
ing interest upon penalty as well as
upon principal has been followed by
county %treasurers throughout the
state,
We have been following that
without exception, acting
upon specific instruction from the
auditor and 1t is reasonable to
that every other county
treasurer Is doing likewise" he said.
An interesting sidelight on the
situation is the fact that the land
ownership precipitated the
legal action eliminating In the SUI

being only OF dubious value. for
ranching purposes, when Glacier

TRAVELLERS GET
 WINE EDUCATION
Italian Steamship Lines Seek to Prevent
 Scenes

Rome - (U.P), - If a traveller doesn't know his wines, he will be taught them before any blushing scene occurs. The Italian steam ship companies are installing tast- ing booths aboard. where slipping of all wines will be free. A "bic. chierino" or thimbleful, of any wine will be served to all corners.
 The National Institute for Ex- ports and the major steamship companies have decided that henceforth ocean passengers must not experience one single embar- rassing moment during the cross- ing.
 Exhibitions of typical national wines will be instituted on board the various floating palaces s in those quarters most frequented by voyagers. Bottles in all shapes and colors and bearing the original labels will be on exhibit. '
 A special vintner will be sta tioned next to the show cases and answer questions regarding the right kind of wines to be slipped with hors d'oeuvres, fish and meat dishes.

"In most cases of big cities the county government simply dupF cates city functions. It would be a good thing to eliminate such coun- ty governments entirely, throwing outside communities into town ships organizations. Many of the large cities ought to consider this way of cutting expenses"
 One of the things Couzens is at- tacking in Detroit is the property milking racket" Groups of un- scrupulous men would get hold of city property through quit-claim deeds, then fill up the buildings at lower rates. than could any land- lord who tried to pay taxes.
 The property -milkers" had no such intention, but would simply milk" the property until it was foreclosed, moving on then to an- other property. Legitimate land- lords were forced to cut rents in competition to the point where they could not meet taxes either. and thus the city income fell down and down.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1933-08-30
By WILLIS THORNTON NEA Service Writer

Detroit-sVoters and taxpayers are going to have to re-learn the meaning of the word. No"
 Frank Couzens, the 31-year-0ld acting mayor who bids fair to pull this city out of as bad a financial jam as any major city has faced, sat in shirt-sleeves at his desk as he talked of the financial future of Americas cities.
 'Go to the outskirts of any big city and you'll see where the mon- ey went" says Couzens, gesturing with a cigaret. Paved streets with grass growing up through them. Fire-plugs hidden in the tall weeds. Sewers and all kinds of expensive improvements. All because people had been taught for years and years always to vote aye on prac- tically anything. Now they're go- ing to have to vote no for a while and hold down the flood of bond issues until they get on their feet" Scrip for Money
 While Couzens talked, city po- lice and firemen were standing at all the doors of Detroit's ancient city hall, each with . stack of money in his hand.
 They were swapping for real money the scrip with which they have been paid recently. People coming in to pay taxes in real money are approached by the poe lice or. firemen. Most of the callers are willing to swap their real money for the city employees scrip. for if they are going inside to pay taxes the scrip is just as good for that as money,
 And while most business places accept the scrip at full value. still it's consoling to have some real money, too.
 Detroit's scrip has been a suc- cess, most people here agree. More than $5,000,000 has already been turned back to the city in delin- quent tax payments.
 We're going t0 have to issue 100000 more in scrip this month";" says Mayor Couzens. with retirements there will then be about $13,000,0OO outstanding. We hope 1t won't be necessary to issue any more scrip then, and we can gradually go about retiring it." Tax Payments Spurcd
 For one thing, the scrip is get ting in the back taxes. Wayne County had collected $12.074,844 in current and delinquent taxes up to the 1932-33 deadline July G. and $1,223,595 was in Detroit scrip, $30,000 in scrip of other communi- ties within the counties.
 One downtown merchant ex- plained how it works. "Sure we take scrip" he said. "We use 1t to
