she is estranged from the prince,
as is the golden-voiced opera
singer.
Between cruncheS Of the celery.
in her suite in the Astor Hotel,
Mary McCormic vouchSafed an in

The singer, here for a vaude-
vile engagement and hoping short

Prince husband, Serge Mdivani,
has separation action pending
against him, and he a divorce
complaint against her. She said:
do 1 hope the prince mar.
ries again? 1 certainly do! I'd
hate to think / was the only
dope in the world"
And so how does it feel to be
a princess, Mary McCormic?
ut feels something like this.
I put on my hat and coat to
go out. The Prince says:
What for? 1 say: Fresh air.
He is insaneIy jealous. The
Prince says: Stick your head

coat And the Prince goes out,
and locks the hotel door, and I
have to stay in all day, and IL
I want fresh air, I have to stick
my head out the window.
"Life with the Prince was
just a piling up Of ASiatic
StupiditieS."
But perhaps the Prince was a

BY International News Service

A congressional policy Of tax
ing liquor "all the traffic will
bear" with repeal Of the Eight
Oenth Amendment was forecast
today as the special House Ways
and Means subcommittee named
to seek new sources Of taxation
prepared to open an official in
Vestigation.
Samuel B. Hill D) Of Wash
Ington, chairman Of the subcom-
nittee, announced the question
Of liquor taxation will be the
first considered when the sub
committee begins new sessions
Monday.
1,OOO.OOO,OOO Tax Forecast
While Hill declined to predict
the revenue which may be OBJ
tanned from liquor and wines,
Representative Isaac Bacharach
bf New Jersey, veteran Republi.
can member Of the Ways and
Means Committee, predict e d
iinuor, wine, and beer will yield
81, 200 O,00O, 900 annually. Hill said:
"Our experts have been work
ing on the question Of liquor
taxation all summer long with
their work Of aiding the com
Haittee in stopping up leaks In
the revenue laws.
1--WE expect to receive the
Qfuuor tax recommendation
from the Treasury in the near
future and will try to make .
SeuOrt by the time the full COM
nnittee meets early in Decem-
Der.
"There are two question:
what tax will produce the
greatest . m unit Of revenue,
and At what point shall we
stop to discourage bOOtlegg1ng?
81 think Congress will want
10 levy q tax as high rs we
can, to produce revenue and to
avoid encouragement Of Illicit
manufacture Of liquor. 1t
really is an actuarial question"
May Fix Tax st SO
Bacharach expressed belief that
Congress may fix the tax about
6 a gallon, compared with the
existing tax Of $1.1O.
Till forecast a determination
on the part Of Congress to use

States Attorney General P. H. O'Brien.

to the dignity of the court and may

that decisions would result from coer-

basic maxims and decisions on record.
Powers granted the N. r. A. are re

The N. r. A., therefore. represents
