These two dozen sturdy, bright
eyed youngsters were the car
riers, who by exceptional service
and success in their work merited
the annual trip to New York.
With them were four branch
managers who performed con-
spicious service over period of
time in putting the Hearst
papers on top of the world in the
territory they cover.
Here is the list of boys who
made the trip:
Robert Wilson, Karl Hickman,

Kenneth Schriener, Robert Miller,
Warren Kenny, Walker Shrode,
Clifton Fritter, Robert Shields,
Ignatius Salemi, Joseph Dowd,

branch managers qualified are
Alvin Parks, Harvey Schmidt,
Clarence Appler and William
Silverman.
A Trip of Wonders
Although the hockey game was
the top spot of the trip, the boys
thrilled at the greatness of New
York. Leaving Washington at 1850
a. m. yesterday, they reached
Gotham in time for lunch. 1t was
pouring rain, but when did little
rain dampen the ardor of youth?
They lunched and then revelled
in the wonders of Radio City
Music Hall.
With the show over, the cham.
pions visited the National broad
casting studios, where they played
an eager audience to several
broadcasts. They were little dis
appointed when Will Rogers and
Walter Winchell were not on the
welcoming committee. Graham
McNamee was not on duty when
they called. But there were
enough celebrities to please the

WOMAN'S MURDER
MYSTERY DEEPENS
Mississippian Confesses
Carrying Hacked Legs !.

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LAUREL, Miss, January 28.-The
story of a 30-year-old Laurel woman
that she carried the hacked legs of
a white woman to the lonely spot
where they were found by colored
rabbit hunter served today to deepen
the mystery surrounding one of South
Mississippi's strangest murder cases.
Still missing were the torso, arms,
feet and head of the victim.
Mother Is Missing.
Also missing was Mrs. Daisy Kee-
ton, 55-year- old widowed mother Of
Ouida Keeton, the woman who told
officers she carried the gruesome bum
die into the wooded section.
The legs, chopped of just below
the knees and severed from the torso
at the thighs, were bundled in sugar
sacks when the Negro stumbled across
them late last Monday.
Miss Keeton was arrested and will
be charged with flrst-degree murder,
County Attorney Jack Deavours said.
Deavours said officers had found
blood stains on bath room door In
the Keeton home and several cleavcr-
like butcher knives.
Mrs. Keeton has not been seen
since last Sunday.

Your Income Tax
How to Avoid Common Errors


The period for the filing of income
tax returns covering the calendar year
1894 begins January / and ends at
midnight Of March Is. Within this
period are filed annually millions of
individual income-tax returns, large
proportion Of which report income sub
ject to the tax The latter contain a
considerable percentage of errors,
which If uncorrected by the audit
would result in the disadvantage of
the taxpayer. Many are errors of
computation easily discovered on the
face of the return, which usually Is &C
companied by a payment of more than
the amount of the tax due. In other
returns It is readily discernible that
the taxpayer has failed to take adyan-
tage of the personal exemption. credit
allowed for dependents, or deductions
from gross income to which he Is en-
titled.
To avoid these and other errors, the
Bureau of Internal Revenue urges
careful reading of the instructions on
the forms for filing returns. Addi-
tional information, if needed, may be
obtained at the Office of a collector of
internal revenue, deputy collector, or
an internal revenue agent in charge.
Also, as further aid in the prepa-
ration of a correct income-tax return
for the year 1884, the Bureau has pre-
pared a series of short newspaper
articles, of which this is the first, ad-
vising the salaried man, wage Garner,
professional and business nan-in
fact, every class of individual tax
payer-of his requirements and priv
ileges as interpreted under the latest
regulations, rulings, and decisions re-
lating to the income-tax law.

MISSISSIPPI FLOOD

Affected.
BY the Associated Press.

.
MARKS, Miss, January 2S.-The
North Mississippi flood zone shifted
today to the east, where the towns of
Crowder and Curtis were surrounded
by overflow waters and to the south,
where the Coldwater River Basins
spread had reached Lambert.
AS the situation around Marks and
to the north showed steady improve
ment with the recession of the Waters,
Red Cross officials became more opti-
mistic over the general situation.
$4,000 Persons Affected.
George E. Myer, special representa-
tive of the Red Cross from Washing
ton, came Lack into North Mississippi
today for a complete survey of the
situation. He estimated that about
$4,000 persons have been affected by
the floods.
There are now enough boats and
supplies in the various counties to
meet the emergency" he said, but
there is an immediate need for funds
to pay for the necessities of life in the
area"
Water Heads for Farms.
The Iowlands around Crowder,
Sumner and Webb likely will continue
to fill with water for several days.
Even If clear weather continues, fami-
lies in these areas may find their lands
inundated. The water was heading
for the farms.
Myer estimated that at least 20,
and probably more. are dead in the
Mississippi food area.

HOLDING COMPANY
.REPORT. STUDIED
Trade Body Proposes Rigid
Regulation or Total
Suppression.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Congress, which Is soon to receive
President Roosevelt's ideas on what
to do about utility holding compa
nies, studied today report suggest
ing two choices.
The Federal Trade Commission, in
a document containing many attacks
on the "evils" of this type of corpo-
rate structure, recommended that 1t
be rigidly regulated or suppressed al
together.
The commission did not make a
choice itself. But it said signifi-
cantly that IF the Congress does not
regard the suppression of the holding
company as a feasible and, on the
whole, preferable policy" then "the
necessity of strict regulation becomes
all the more apparent"
Detriment Exceeds Value.
1t added that the commission is of
the opinion on the whole that the
detriment of utility holding companies
to the public has exceeded, thus far,
their value to the public
The Presidents suggestions, soon to
be forwarded in special message,
have not been made known, but high
officials are known to have discussed
the possibility of special taxation on
such concerns. This was a point
stressed by the commission. It said
taxation offers the best method of
controlling holding companies.
The commission, making its final
report after a seven-year investiga-
ton of gas and electric utilities, list
ed ABUSES" under 10 headings, rang
ing from pyramiding to income tax
evasion.
1t categorically advised the elimi-
nation of super holding companies" d"
These are holding companies which
are superimposed on other holding
companies.
Practices Are Scored.
''The use of words such as fraud,
deceit, Misrepresentation, breach Of
trust and oppression are the only
suitable terms" to characterize prac-
tices disclosed in the holding COM
pany field, the report said.
1.-The holding company in the utility
field" it added. "has been the chief
device by which the control and own
ership of operating companies has
been rapidly concentrated into fewer
and fewer hands with every prospect
that the process will continue on to
Nationwide monopoly unless there be
governmental regulation"

F. H. A. Confesses.
The Federal Housing Administra-
ton broke down and confessed in a
private memorandum sent to all State
directors not long ago. 1t said not
much could be expected from the
home mortgage provision of its own
housing act because IL Midwestern
and Western States already have en-
acted mortgage moratorium laws and
other States are considering similar
action.
The insurance companies and other
mortgage investors cannot be expected
to help mortgage financing in the face
Of moretoriums.
Among other things the confidential
memo said:
Moratorium laDs, such as Ue
haze had in many States during
the depression. serDe their purpose,
but it must be recognized that in
so far as they jeopdrdize the Sc
curity OF the lender to that ertent
