he said and to leave trail support
ing his story, inquired at several
houses in the neighborhood for the
squares location.
Then he rode to Grand Central
Terminal on a subway and put a
letter addressed to Frederic, in New
York, aboard a train just pulling out
for northern New York The trick
worked just as he had planned-the
letter came to Frederic early Sum
day morning postmarked at Pough-
keepsie, N Y, where railway post
Office clerks had put it off for re-
routing.
Spent Time Reading
The package he mailed in the
terminal. Travelling in the parcel
post classification, it arrived at the
palatial home Of his grandfather in
Germantown two days later.
Milne said he went to Trenton,
N. j., by bus and stayed there until
the following Wednesday, spending
his time reading books in public
library. There he mailed note de-
manding ransom to his grandfather
Wednesday he went to Lambert
Vile, N. j., by bus; That night he
set out on foot toward DoyleStoWn
and when about five miles from his
starting point, threw away his hat
and overcoat. He walked a few
miles farther, choosing likely place
whera he could be found.
There he tapped his lips and eyes
with adhesive tape and tied himself
with rope he had brought along
Then he threw himself into ditch,
where he was found later by four
youths.
Convinced Hospital Doctors
They took him first to nearby
doctors home then to the Doyles-
town hospital where his realistic
performance of a man suffering
from hunger, exposure and the after
effects of narcotics was, Federal
Agents admitted first class art. The
hospital doctors apparently took his
symptoms seriously and told Harold
Nathan, Hoover'S assistant, that
they would not be responsible if
they questioned him too severely.
Milne was kept under guard at
the hospital several days, then
taken to his mothers home in
Woodstock.
Federal agents, checking his story,
became more and more convinced
that it was hoax. Yesterday aft
ernoon they brought Milne here and
confronted him with their evidence.
After hours of questioning, he broke
down.
The questioning was conducted by
Mr.. Nathan, Rhea Whitley, chief
Department of Justice agent for
New York area, and Inspector

The Boy Scout Program has been
serving American boys and girls for
nearly twenty-four years and we'll
known and acceptable to city boys
and their parents. 1t is the purpose
of this article to set forth the facts
in regard to Scouting for rural boys
and to answer the following ques-
tions:
/. How has the Scouting Pro
gram been ruralized?
2 What are the plans for rural
groups and leadership?
We shall answer the above ques-
tons so that Leaders and farm peo-
pie may understand the Program
and make more and better use of it.
In a survey made in 1926 Of 400
Troops located in rural towns, we
discovered that 300 of the members
lived on farms. We also found that
many of these boys, against their
viii and due to pressure of parents,
or inability to meet the time sched-
ule of the town Troops, were obliged
to drop out while in Tenderfoot
Rank. These boys could not do up
the farm chores, clean UP, eat sup

Look For Huge Savings
To Taxpayers In Repeal
On Federal Gas Tax

Taxpayers of Maryland would save
an estimated $1,000, 100 by repeal of
the lie federal tax on gasoline which
is due to expire June 80 next, IL was
reported by ]. P. Lanigan, Secretary
of the Maryland Petroleum Industries
Committee. Mr.. Lanigan said the esti-
mate was based upon 1884 consump-
ton of zoe, 279, 900 gallons of gasoline
in this state.
No exemptions are allowed from
the federal tax, which is paid in adj
dition to the state gasoline tax of 4c.
"The duplicating federal tax upon
gasoline, originally imposed as a
temporary tax is due to expire June
80 next" explained Mr.. j. P. Lanigan.
MANY individual taxpayers and orga-
nizations of this state already have
petitioned their Senators and Repre-
sentatives at Washington to put an
end to this levy. A stable proportion
of Congress has indicated favorable
attitude toward its elimination upon
the expiration date.
Ending this levy save Maryland
taxpayers an estimated total of ST.
O62, 100 a year, this cost being based
upon gasoline consumed in This state
in 1884. This would be not only a
break for the taxpayers, but would
expedite recovery and help business
by letting our people have just that
much more money to spend within the
borders of our own state. After all, a
federal government with more than
81, O00, 600, 900 to spend this year could
afford to let US have at least that
much relief
There would be less objection to
the federal levy if it were the only
tax on gasoline. But it is paid by con-
Sumers in addition to the &c state
gasoline tax. That makes two taxes
on the same gallon of gasoline. Fur
thermore, the federal government is
not earmarking federal gasoline tax
money for roads, the only excuse for
taxing gasoline"

$500, 100000 Allotted For
Roads and Grade Crossings

Subject to regulations to be ap-
proved by the President, there has
been allocated under the Work Relief
Act of 1885 for approtionment among
the states, the District of Columbia
and Hawaii $500, 100000 FOR highways
roads and streets and 100000, 900 for
elimination Hazards at railroad
grade crossings. These sums are avail
able for immediate expenditure by the

vidual projects proposed to be under
taken and other requirements of law,
including approval by the Presidents
Advisory Committee on Allotments,
have been complied with.
The apportionment to the States
has been completed by Secretary
Wallace in accordance with provisions
of the law which require that funds
for highways and related projects be
apportioned on the basis of popula-
ton, area, mileage of rural post roads
etc. Funds for grade crossing work
were apportioned one-half on the
basis of population, one-fourth accord
ing to the mileage of the Federal-aid
highway system and one-fourth ac-
cordin1 to railroad mileage.

Odd Fellows Order

The Independent Order of Odd Fell
lows first originated in England dur
ing the first half of the Eighteenth
century, probably as an outgrowth of
rivalry to the Masonic fraternity, which
had been revived about that time. The
biggest English friendly society, the
Manchester Unity Of Odd Fellows, was
organized from various lodges in 1913.
and this society introduced the order
Into America in 1919. The hundredth
anniversary Of American Odd Fellow
ship was celebrated in 1919. For some
years the American order was affili-
ated with the Manchester Unity, but in
1912 relations between the two were
severed, and they have remained indie
pendent since.
