The Supreme court decides that
government has the power to tax a
thing out of existence. This decision
came with approval of l5-cents-a-
pound tax on oleomargarine. The pur-
pose of that tax is to make it impos-
sible to manufacture oleomargarine
profitabIy. and thus compel people to
eat butter, whether they can afford
II or not.
Doubtless that is wise. in fact, It
must be wise, since the Supreme
court says so.
But some day, when we have. as
we shall have, one thousand million
people In the United States. and lack
room for so many cows, it may be de-
sirable to have a good substitute for
butter, and we may regret today's
hostile taxation.

BY the noveGst's own admission,
Mary Pickford had some influ-

All of which is due to cause some
eyebrow lifting in Hollywood. La
Garbo is one of the traditions out
