Lehman Retains
Present Sales Tax
Rejects Doubling Levy
With Eye On Election

ALBANY July 26-With his eye
on the coming elections, Governor
Lehman of New York refused to
increase the state sales tax from one
to two per cent as requested by his
fellow members Of Tammany Hall,
Mayor O'Brien and the city admin
istration Instead, he urged that
the City be granted power to levy
Sales Tax of its own If it wishes.
In this way, Governor Lehman
hopes to rob the State Republican
Party of arguments in the coming
election.
To Control Liquor Graft.
The present special session Of the
Legislature has been called re
lief session" by the Democratic gov
eminent of New York City. Gov
ernor Lehman, however, will utilize
1t to increase Tammany's grip on
the fat rc"7nues of the Liquor Con-
troll Board, and to increase the pro-
fits of New York manufacturers by
recommending state laws in COM
pliance with the National Recovery
Slavery Act
Do Not Oppose Sales Tax.
None Of the opponents of May
or O'Brien's proposal to double
the State Sales Tax are opposed
to the Sales Tax as such. The
main opposition to it is from two
sources, from those who consider
it politically inexpedient at the pres
ent time in view Of the coming
elections to the Assembly, and from
the influential New York merchants
who fear that an increased Sales
Tax will drive business to the neigh
boring stores in New Jersey.
These sentiments are openly ex-
pressed by the leading New York
merchants who oppose Mayor
O'Briens proposal Michael Schapp,
President of Bloomingdales Depart
ment Store, said, IF any sales tax
had to be imposed, it should have
been Federal Tax. A State Sales
Tax is bad because 1t tends to drive
business out Of the State
Bankers Get Lions Share.
Mayor O'Brien asserts that the
city's share of the proposed in
creased tax will be about SAL 900 900,
and that this amount is required by
the city for relief purposes. His
proposal to increase the State Tax
is for the purpose Of avoiding any
lessening of the city's enormous
payments to the Rockefeller and
Morgan banks of Wall Street who
hold the majority of the city's
bonds

If the whole amount was distributed
it reaches to approximately $40 for a
period Of months for each unem-
ployed worker and his family.

will last all through the summer at

Governor recently.

not only cut by a thread, but both
the first and second turning Of the
hem are also along a thread to insure
absolute evenneSS. The hem Is turned
on the right side and basted. The first
turning is narrow, and over 1t cross
stitches are taken in the contrasting
embroidery medium. These stitches
not only hold down the hem, but they
supply interesting decoration.
When the hens have been finished,
cross-stitch the fish and Seaweed" de-
sign on the linen by counted threads,
exactly as If the linen were crosS-stitch
canvas. The size of the design depends
upon the number of threads of the
weave over which the croSs-Stitches are
taken. One, two or possibly three
threads may be cross-Stitched over. The
design can be repeated according to dl-
rections on the pattern sheet, so that
an entire border is made for a lunch
con cloth, or border bands for runners.
For doilies, one design, as given, will
be enough for the narrow sides and one
or two for the longer sides. For nap
kins, croSs-stitch one fish only, In a
corner of each napkin. 1t Is a wise
thing to keep the working directions, as
they are not otherwise available.

cluding their wives, Is the most pre-
posterous thing have ever heard. And
I am not one who believes that hus-
bands and wives should be always in
separable, either. I can understand
very occasional divided parties, such as
were given by a certain group in New
York awhile ago, to- which one-half
of the husbands were invited with other
mems wives, and the other men were
invited with the wives Of the first
husbands This is amusing enough for
once, and among a lot of intimate
friends But the method of the Club
Committee was something quite diff
ferent and unwarrantable.
MY dear Mrs. Post: I have had
long friendship with boy. which, un-
fortunately, has just come to an end.
We were not engaged but during the

this be returned to him in the same
way that an engagement ring is given
back when the engagement no longer
exists?"
Answer-If it was not an engagement
ring, see no reason why it should be
given back. On the other hand, a
ring is not conventional present from
a boy to a girl-especielly if it was at
all valuable I should say that much
depends upon what it meant to you.
If it was IAN understanding" ring, it
should perhaps be sent back. If 1t
was a trifling trinket and meant moth
ing further than Christmas or birth

It's just too poetic, look at it sailing

Adventure Of Northland.
Before the VoyaFe.

DSAOfo INC VOYAGE.
T SHALL not speak at length Of the
sorrowful event which followed q
day after Capt. Thompson re-
i ceived the letter from the Museum
Of Natural History. The dear old
captain passed away. His friends and
former shipmates were kind to Allen
and Roberta. So were DR.. Barstow and
Mr.. Weston-who arrived in time to
talk with the captain. They assured
him that they would do all they could
for his grandchildren.
Kindness at such time Is even more
important than In the usual course of
life, but neither the boy nor the girl
could be quite so brave as they thought
their grandfather had wanted them to
be. However, they did their best, and
often thought Of his parting words:
Life Is Like a voyage across the
ocean. Sometimes there are pleasant
days, sometimes there are stormy days.
We must take them as they some. We
must be brave during the storms, and
do our best to save the ship. There
are shallow places In the sea, where
q ship may run aground. We must
study our course ahead Of time, and
avoid the dangers from sand bars and
rocks.
you know that am sorry to leave
you, and that I should like our voy-
age together to be longer, but If that
cannot be, want you to be brave sailors
On the sea of life. Be helpful sailors,
too, and II other ships are in danger
Of being wrecked, lend a helping hand
10 them"
Those words were written IN the
minds Of Allen and Roberta, and 1t
seemed to them that the captains mes
sage could never be forgotten.
The kindly neighbor, Mrs. Weston,
took them into her home, and it was
there-two weeks later-that they re-
ceived visit from Mr.. Weston.

IL are made from the wood! Tough
ness and durability are the chief
virtues Of this wood Before the white
man arrived on the American conti-
nent the Indians made their bows and
clubs from the wood. We copied their
idea.
The Usage is a remarkable tree. II
may be grown as a protective hedge
The stout branches, armed with sharp
pointed thorns, will discourage any
familiarity. In early pioneer days this
tree was in great demand. 1t would
grow easily from root or branch cut
tings. If let alone 1t has a tendency
to spread too much. There are still
a few old fences of these ''bowdares, u
or hedge apples" to be found.
The fruit, because of its shape and
color, suggests the orange. When
bruised it sends forth a milky juice
which soon turns black.
The thorns are straight and sharply
pointed. You find them along the
branches in the axis of the leaves
They are as sharp as needles and as
strong as steel.
In June the flowers are seen In dense
clusters on short stalks. They are yell

tree. The male flowers are in a linear
cluster, the female ones in a rounded
ball.

strong and very durable in contact with
soil. Valuable dyes are obtained from
the bark. The heartwood is a bright
orange In color, but turns brown with
exposure. The bark of the trunk is
furrowed and Is yellowish brown to
dark gray in color
The wood is made into insulator pins,
fence posts, wagon wheels. lumber and
fuel. It is used mostly for fence posts.
The Usage orange covers a wide ter
ritory and it seems that some one in
every State must have planted one or
more of these trees. Its original dis
tribution was about 10000 square miles.
1t was first found from Atol, Okla,
to Dallas, Tex, with an east-and-west
limit of 100 miles. From this re-
stricted area it has spread and is one
of the most widely distributed forest
trees in America.
