LIQUOR TAXES0F $2OO,OO0,OOO GO
 INTO TREASURY
This Sum Would Il av e Gone to BOOtleggers If
 Repeal Had Failed

Washington, March 1G.-(UP).-~ Nearly $200, 100000 in liquor taxes W hich might otherwise have flowed into bootleg channels has been di- yerted into the federal treasury since the Roosevelt administrators began liberalization and repeal Of prohibition laws a year ago.
 The huge sum, representing liuuor rectification and production taxes, customs, licenses and other revenue resulting from manufac- ture and sale of alcoholic bever- ages, goes q long ways towards the budget and financing the recovery drive.
 Liquor revenue began to pour into the treasury early last April when medicinal liquor restrictions were relaxed and the sale of s. per cent beers was legaliZed with d barrel tax.
 Beer revenues grew rapidly with the coming of the summer months last year and hteir seasonal decline last fall. was offset in December when national repeal brought heavy "hard liquor" taxes
 Along with the huge federal bev-
  tant financial benefits to states and localities where liquor taxes were imposed. Because of the short time in which liquor taxes have been col lected. the changes in the rate structure and the fact that many states are still dry government of ficials are unable to predict the full years revenue from alcoholic beV- erages. Twenty-six states ana the District of Columbia, which con tain most of the country's popula- tion, now permit or shortly will per init the sale of hard liquors.
 Prior to repeal annual collections from sale of alcoholic liquors had been estimated as high at 0O,OO0,- 900 on tax rate of $6 gallon in . stead of the present s2 gallon rate. The peak federal alcoholic beverage collections were in the fiscal year ended June 30, 1918. hen $449,S10,000 revenue poured into the federal treasury.

 Start of Accident
 The Willow street car started to slip or skid on the tracks short Nv after passing RidgeWood street and gained considerable momen- tum as it approached Pine street. Attorney John II. Burns, manager of the Home Owners loan corpor- ation, and Patrolman John Me- Mahon rushed to the rear of the car and endeayored to operate the hand brakes. Motorman Sullivan attempted to set the car in re- verse, but it was a useless effort As the runaway" reached the in- tersection, q car in charge of Mo- torman William Proc of 972 West Main street took the green light and started to cross. The Willow street car crashed into the side Of the Watertown trolley close to the vestibule. The force of the impact almost turned the first car con- pIetely around. Both were derailed.
 Passengers Tossed About
 Passengers were hurled from their seats and more or less pain fully injured, none very seriously. All aboard the Willow street car paid tribute to the courage Of Mo torman Sullivan. He leaped to one side from his post Of duty as the collision occurred and escaped in jury. The vestibule of his car was badly smashed.
 The accident attracted a large number of spectators. The injured were taken to both St. Mary's and the Waterbury hospital.

Louisville Federal Bank Re-
leased ,200,O 900 in

Federal Land bank of Louisville

announcement by Ernest Rich,
president of the bank. This repre-
sents a new record number of loans
closed in Indiana during one
month is almost half the number

500 were closed.
These loans are being used chiefly
to ref1nance farm mortgages and
notes, most of which have been
held by commercial banks.
During November, 2,647 applica-
lions for loans totaling $10162, 700
were received from Tennessee, more
applications having been received
in November than in any other
month of the banks history.
Loans made by the bank in Ten
nessee are of two types, the land
bank loan and the commissioners
loan. The land bank loan is al
ways first mortgage loan and may
be used for buying or improving a
farm, for purchasing livestock,
equipment, or fertilizer and for re-
financing farm mortgages, notes,
and other Indebtedness. The leans
may be made up to so per cent Of
the appraised normal value of the
land and 20 per cent of the ap-
praised, insurable value of the per-
manent Improvements.

either on first or second mortgages
and can be used only for ref1nanc-
ing old Indebtedness, to provide
working capital for farming opera
tons or to reacquire farm property
lost by foreclosure after July /, 1881.
The commissions loan, together
with all other evidences of in
debtedness secured by the farm
property, may not exceed rs per
cent of its appraised value.

CONSUMPTION OF
TIN INCREASES
30.8 Per Cent Boost for
First Ten Months of 1888
Is Recorded.

Estimated world tin consumption
for the first ten months of 1888
amounted to 1OS,655 tons, compared
with $1,000 tons for the correspond
ing period of 1882, an increase of
30.8 per cent, according to figures
released today to the Hague sta
tistical office Of the international tin
research and development council.
The United States used 52,251 tons
during the ten month period, COM
pared with 29,397 tons for the first
ten months of 1882, thus accounting
for 1876 per cent of the increase in
world consumption. The apparent
United States consumption contin-
ued to rise in October, that months
total of 6,168 tons representing an
increase of Ill per cent over Sep
TENDER.
World consumption in October,
however, dropped off slightly, being
estimated at 1850 tons against
II 1924 tons in September. The Octo-
Der consumption was 3,678 tons
greater than for October, 1882. Low
er consumption in France and Ger
many contributed to the decline.

BUSINESS BOOST
ISFORECAST BY
C. F. CAMPBELL
Garage Head Says Increase
in Cars Points to
New Hiqh.

Charles F. Campbell, president of
the Madden-Copple Company, auto
motive repair garage, says the 1884
outlook for his business is promis-
ing.
With much enthusiasm, he states
that preliminary comparison of
the business done by his plant for
the years 1882 and 1888 shows an 8
per cent increase for the latter
year.
I'VE now are making major re-
pairs on from twenty to thirty cars
a day." he says, and possibly twice
that number are passing through
our doors. Of course, we stay open
all night, and our night business
accounts for quite a bit, but our
night force are able men and easily
could take care Of much more.
Judging from the number of new
faces who are bringing in work. and
also old customers whom we haven't
seen for a long time-I sincerely be-
lieve that people as a whole are
much buster in their respective lines
of endeavor, and that they have de-
cided that the best way to do things
is to have an expert do them.
by this, mean that instead of
so many people doing repair work
on their cars at home, they now are
bringing them to us and possibly
other good repair shops. This GER
tainly is encouraging, and I know
that by keeping up our quality of
work, We'll have a banner year.
Don't forget" he added that
cold weather shows up those little
defects and weaknesses in motors.
Condensers, points, carbTetors, dis
tributors, most any of these, are apt
to be off balance. We can find the
trouble quickly"

BEDROOM COLOR HELD
VITAL SLEEP FACTOR
Psychologist Explains Soothing Eff
feet of Some Blues.

Less sleep may be required for
complete rest if bedroom walls are
repainted in some color that is
soothing and quieting to the indi-
vidual sleeper, is the finding of DR..
Donald Laird, head Of the Colgate
university department of psychol-
ogy.
Proper rest, it is pointed out, de-
ponds on a number of factors. For
example, Edison and Napoleon
needed little sleep because their
work was interesting and satisfac-
tory to them.
Woodrow Wilson, on the other
hand, required long rest periods be-
cause his work had a certain degree
of nonotony or tedium. The proper
color on bedroom walls and fur
niShings, DR.. Laird believes, is a
vital sleep factor and ranks in i'm
portance close to daily working con-
ditions,
