Merchants Liable to 500
Fine on Cut-Rate Trucks.

Grocers and merchants patroniSing
cut-rate trucking services may be SUBJ
jected to 500 fine, John j. Ryan, sec
retary of the Retail Grocers and Cen
eral Merchants association, warns MEM
bers in the current issue of the Associ-
alton magazine.
MIR. Ryan, after calling attention to
the new truck regulatory law which re-
quired the Railroad and Warehouse
commission to prescribe rates for all
for-hire truck hauls, stated, 1T is i'm
portant for our merchants to keep in
mind that any merchant who pays less
for the transportation of property than
the CommiSsion-made rates, violates
the law the same as the trucker, and
party is a misdemeanor and subjects
the violator to fine not to exceed
$780,"
Pointing out the advantage to the
retail merchant of the new law in that
it will eliminate any competitive ad-
vantage which any one merchant might
enjoy over another because of con-
fidential rates, Mr.. Ryan advised, I'VE
believe that you are interested in the
enforcement of the law. If any truck
er is charging less or proposed to charge
less than the CommiSSion-made rates.
you should advise the Minnesota Com
mission of that fact Immediately. or
write us, and we will take the matter
up with the Commission"

MELLON ESTATE TAX
HARVEST EXPECTED
Brother of Andrew Said to
Have Left Millions.

BIZ Scripps-HoWdrd Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Dec. THE estate
of the late R. B. Mellon, brother
of Andrew, probably will con-
tribute heavily to balance the
budget. The 1882 tax law imposes
a As per cent levy on all the prin-
cipal value of an estate in excess
of $1O,000,OO0, and according to
most reports, Mr. Melons estate
was in the hundreds of millions.
On the amount under $10,000,000 of
value, a lesser graduated rate is
imposed.
But Pennsylvania government
may get more than Uncle Sam. The
law allows a credit of up to 80 per
cent of the federal tax Of the
amount paid in state taxes, and
Pennsylvania has a relatively high
state inheritance tax.
Many rich men have IN the past
set up trusts and made gifts before
their death, but the 1882 law i'm
posed a tax on gifts to prevent reve-
nue. leakage.
