"a metal token was also dropped
in the receptacle.
Mr.. Lane was making con-
siderable headway with his jury
and had almost convinced the
jurors that more than one token
was never delivered along with
the candy merchandise and
therefore the machine was
strictly a merchandise vendor
and could not, under any inter
probation, be a gambling device.
With perfect assurance, Mr..
Lane approached the machine,
exhibit A, and holding a coin
in his hand, said:
Ladies and gentlemen Of the
jury, to demonstrate the claim
that this machine is only a
vending device, I will drop a
coin in the slot and you may
see for yourselves that I re-
ceive only a piece Of candy in
return"
The mayor dropped his nickel
in the slot. Sixteen tokens came

today and tomorrow.
These two subjects are now
represented in pending leglSla-
ton In Congress and the govern
ing board will decide on definite
recommendations to make.
They are hard nuts to crack,
as every realtor interested in
development can attest. Strong
minds have attempted for months
to-. alleviate building restrictions
due to rising labor and material
costs and have striven for Fed
eral legislation to release private
capital at least-now frozen
for new construction.
It would put a million men to
work and would place billions OF
dollars of orders for materials.
The last solution Of the propo-
sition might solve the others, but
it's solution will not be under
taken until next fall, according
to- those best informed.
At present, the Government
seems to be bending its efforts
in sending out trial balloons"
to determine the general public
reaction toward Federal aid for
new building.
Recognizing this, E. j. Hard
ing, managing director Of the
contractors association, has this
to say:
.E"In regard to further public
works funds, we believe it
would be fatal to recovery for
Congress to be parsimOniOuS in
It's appropriations for the COM
ing year. We look for fairly
9ctive summer in the cOnStruc-
ton field, as q result of the
allOtments made under the Ma
tlOnal Industrial Recovery Act,
but unless that program is
substantially augmented and
continued for at least another
year q complete collapse of
construction employment threat
ems"
Executives Of the Harding kind
are highly competent in sizing
up. situations of the present sort.
Moreover, they must be diplo-
mats such as the Government
has never sent on foreign assign
ments as its representatives.
Mr.. Harding did not say that
the government has done moth
ing to alleviate the private build
ing industry although it is gen.
orally recognized that what pri-
vate building industry has &C.
con1plished thus far during the
depression, has been done indie
pendent Of any outside aid, Fed
eral or otherwise.
The Washington times., 1934-05-04

HThe commissioner accordingly
held that the value Of the con.
veyed real estate should have
been returned as income by the
petitioner.
The commissioner found that
the net value of the property
thus conveyed to petitioner was
in the sum Of $4,000, and &C.
cordingly determined a deficiency
in his return for 1928 in the sum
Of $2,075.68.
An appeal was taken by peti-
toner to the board of tax ap-
peals upon the claim first above
stated, to wit, that the transac'
ton was q mere exchange Of
parcels Of real estate Of like
kind and was governed by Sec
ton 203, supra, and therefore
was not subject to income tax
assessment, and furthermore that
the value of the equity in the
property transferred, subject as it
was to a mortgage Of $4,000,
did not exceed the sum Of $4,000.
The board after hearing testi-
mony upon the subject sustained
the contention of the commits.
sioner that the transaction was
not covered by section 203, supra,
and that the value Of the prop
erty received by petitioner from
the lessee was taxable as in
come. The board also sustained
the valuation Of $4,000 which
the Commissioner had placed
upon the equity in the trans
ferred property. Accordingly the
board reaffirmed the determine
ton of the Commissioner. This
appeal followed.
Upon a review of the record
it seems to us quite manifest
that the decision of he board
was correct. The transaction in
question plainly was not an ex-
change of property by the parties
but was a lease by petitioner to
the lessee of the designated
leasehold estate for which the
lessee paid an initial rental by
means Of the transfer of the
property referred to, and stipu-
lated to pay a continuing annual
rental throughout the term. Con-
sequently the value Of the equity
in the premises conveyed to pc
titioner at the beginning Of the
term constituted in effect a pay
ment of rental and was taxable
accordingly. In our opinion the
finding of the board should not
be disturbed. Accordingly the
dec sion appealed from Is af-
firmed.
Mr.. Justice Groner took no
part in the decision of this case.

dismissing appellants bill, filed
under the provisions Of Section
4915, r. 8. (Sec. SO, title IS, U.
s. c..
Associate Justice Robb deliv-
cred the courts opinion which
described the device from a sam
pie sheet. The upper section Of
the sheet is provided with printed
matter and spaced for entry Of
required data. It's lower printed
section is adapted for the recep-
ton of similar data. The central
portion of the sheet Is slotted
longitudinally to provide several
narrow strips connected at their
ends to the two end portions.
Three of these strips have printed
thereon consecutive dates In the
respective units Of weeks, months
and years. The printing Of each
strip is duplicated and arranged
in reverse order, so that when
the strips are severed the same
amount and date will appear on
the end portions Of the strips
united to the upper section Of
the form (Which constitutes the
receipt Of one party to the trans
action) and on the end portions
of the strips attached to the
lower part of the form (Which
constitutes the receipt Of the
other party).
The court refers to the Camp
bell patent No. 490897, which dis
closes a device constituting a
combined receipt and record
specially applicable to that class
of conductors cash fare receipts
given passengers for cash fares
paid on the train, which are
made out by detaching a portion
of the form, leaving an auditors
check which also shows the
amount Of the fare"
Campbell further specified that
his device was applicable "gen-
orally for any kind Of receipt or
ticket made out from prepared
forms by detaching portions,
leaving a check or record on the
form.
The Purdue patent No. 559599
was also used as reference, dis
closing in addition monetary
scales on outside columns, but
severed in the same fashion.
Concluding its opinion the
court stated:
"The Patent Office tribunals
found, and in that finding we
concur, that the controlling
idea involved in the two refer
ences and applicants device is
substantially the same; that is
to say, of providing the central
portion Of a sheet in columns
Of graduated indicants separ-
ated by slots, each indicant
being duplicated on opposite
sides by transverse lines, each
end of the sheet bearing the
required printed data or spaces
therefor.
"The references are not mere
paper patents; on the con-
trary, they disclose practical
invention in a closely related
art. All that can be said Of

eye over this one-Robert Abail

ert's folk come from somewhere
up there in the New England
hills, doesn't it?
They did. Robert opened his
eyes in Penacook, N. H., on Oc-
tober II, 1908.
So as soon as he got out Of
short pants, the folks sent him
over to Phillips Exeter to have
his "a" broadened and his hair
slicked down. Then he went to
Dartmouth.
Handy on Nine
He proved mighty handy at
shortstop on the Dartmouth
baseball team in the spring.
Indeed, his fame spread so,
Scout Paul Kritchell, Of the
Yankees, bought a new pair Of
O'Sullivans and went gum
shoeing after him in 1881.
''WhO do you belong to?"
Kritch asked Robert when he
had finally caught up with him.
"Phi Sigma Kappa" replied
Rolfe.
"What leagues that in?"
Kritch wanted to know.
"The Pan-Hellenic," replied
Red. "I'm a Greek letter man."

owned by John McHenry, was the
winner. Troublemaker, owned by
Mrs. T. H. Somerville and winner
in 1882, holds the course record
Of 1851 3-5. Troublemaker was
