MAGNET
DEMONSTRATED

SCHENECTADY, N. "a new
tiny, powerful light and a new
tiny, powerful magnet. both Of
which are expected to bring about

novations demonstrated at the re-
search laboratories of the General
Electric Company to a group of
bankers and business executives
who are making a tour of leading
industrial laboratories under the
auspices Of the National Research
Councils division of engineering
and industrial research.
The new light is produced in a
high-pressure mercury lamp that
is not as thick as a lead pencil
and a little more than two inches
long. 1t produces 200 candle

This would be better for the
nation than allowing them and

Unhappy Move
The California income tax was
an unhappy move-very un-
happy for us who are COM
PEELED to leave the State, but
also somewhat unfortunate for
the State, which may lose some
useful people and enterprises.
However, the State is so great
and so rich that it will easily
sustain the loss. The great mis-
fortune falls upon those who
have to leave it.

session Of the annual meeting of
the national executive council of

General Booth said:
"It is but natural that those

fortunately, many Of them will

General Booth pointed out that,
despite indications of returning
prosperity, there has been little
reduction in the total number of
unemployed.

THR REATE :
PASADENA
Residents Flee as 20
Homes Are Burned
In 3-MiIe Area

PASADENA, Cal, Oct. %
GN.S0. - The famed millionaire
colony in the Pasadena and Alta
dena hills today was threatened
by a raging forest fire which al
ready has burned an area three
miles square.
From the outskirts of the raging
inferno observers reported count
ing at least 20 residences already
destroyed. while innumerable sum-
mer homes and cabins far back
in the hills above the cities are be-
heved to have gone up in smoke.
Old Dewey Home Gone
The C. R. Kayser estate, where
the late Admiral Dewey once re-
sided, was among the buildings
known to have been destroyed.
The station for the incline rail
way up Mt. Lowe was destroyed
and belief was expressed the Echo
Mountain station on the same
line also had been burned. All
telephone communication with
the summit of Mt. Lowe was dis
rupted.
The La Vina Sanitarium was
evacuated of patients and attend
ants just before it was engulfed
by the flames.
Hundreds of residents from the
endangered area fled their homes
in night clothing, and the streets
Of Altadena and Pasadena we're
thronged' with these refugees.
Police reported no known loss
Of life, and it was believed all
whose homes were in the path of
the flames succeeded in escaping.
TIL fire, it is believed, was
caused by a high tension wire
broken by a wind of an estimated
45-mile velocity, which whipped
the blaze ahead of it.

Daily, a motion picture

5oday published the following let

iolph Hearst:
October 16, 1885.
Editor Of VARIETY DAILY.
Hollywood, Calf.
Dear Sir:
I read your article Of Septem-
ber thirtieth stating that I am
leaving California.
Wants to Stay
I hope still to be able to
spend some time in California.
but am compelled to close my
places and live almost entirely
in New York.
Heaven knows I do not want
to leave California. No one
does, least of all a native son
whose father was a pioneer;
but it is utterly impossible for
me to remain here and to
occupy a place like San Simeon,
on account of the Federal and
State tax laws.
The California income tax
law goes to Is per cent. Add
this to the Federal income
taxes, and the New York taxes,
plus many other taxes, and I
find that over 80 per cent Of
my income will go in taxes
in fact, it may be nearer 80
per cent.
Made Impossible
Under these circumstances,
it is absolutely necessary for
me to eliminate the high income
tax of California.
What do, however, Is Of lit
tie consequence: but I fear that
a great number Of people with
considerable incomes are plan
ming to reside elsewhere, and
that a great many who had in
mirfd to come to California, and
to remain here for at least half
Of their time. are realizing the
utter impossibility Of doing so.
The California law contains
the peculiar provision that II
anyone, even though a citizen
of another State, remains in
California six months of any
year, he thereby becomes for
that year a citizen of California.
and Is subject to California in
come taxes in addition to the
taxes he has to pay in the State
where he has his actual and
legal residence.
Bar to Many
This. of course, will prevent
many well-to-do people from be-
ing even part-time residents Of
the State.
It would seem also that q
number Of moving picture peo-
pie who earn considerable sala-
rieS are unwilling to pay the
high income taxation of Cali
fornia, and are accepting en-
gagements in the East or
abroad.
I am inclined to think that If
some alert moving picture COM
pany should establish studios
in Florida or Delaware or New

influence in encouraging Undergrad
yates to stay in school and to carry on
the traditions that have grown UP
around the local institution.
Frank Karnes of the class of 1882 has
just made contribution to the trophies
and mementoes of the school by send
ing a series OF 20 framed drawings OF
the class emblems. Beginning with the
first class, 1918, Frank has made colored
pen and ink sketches of each class
emblem up to the one of 1885. He has
been assisted in this by his brother,
Clarence and various members of the
Alumni who contributed toward the
expense and with the necessary infor-
nation. The plaques are about 6x9
inches and will be hung in the Assem-
bly, as permanent record Of the classes
that have graduated.
Frank is now with the Hansen Manu-
featuring Co., jewelers., of Portland and
has employed his talent as designer ON
the drawings The drawings will be
formally accepted and hung in an early
assembly next September.
