 Praise of Each other
 Whats wrong with them gold mem" asked grimy coal miner.
 "Nuthin'," screamed the coal miners.
 And then, in a wild, shrieking chorus, the coal miners cheered the gold miners.
 When the echoes died away, a gold miner proposed toast to the coal miners and the compliment was returned.
 Traditionally, coal miners look down somewhat on gold miners, al- leging that they are less Virile than themselves. Gold miners have cer- tain prejudices against coal miners Hence, a keen rivalry exists between miners in this district where there are both coal and gold mines.
 Watched Each Other
 All during the rescue work, the gold and coal miners watched one another critically, looking for points to prove the superiority of one sci of craftsmen over the other. Which was the most courageousp Which worked the most efficiently? Al 12:30 a. m. today, three men crawlec through narrow hole Al feet down in Reynolds shaft into the tomb. Two were coal miners-ont was & gold man. So, over theil beer, coal and gold men decided that both were all right-that everything was all right.
 This conclusion was arrived al during the first half dozen mugs worth of citizens of the various Then came the question of thu mining villages, and men from Stel- larton, Westville, Goldboro, Golden vile, and Moose River recountec their exploits and dispensed and re- ceived congratulations.
 During the celebration men drift cd off in groups to the mine office which had been made into a hos pital where Robertson and Scaddinf were sleeping. There they received favorable reports from physicians and, reporting back. gave new rea- son for cheering and refilling tho mugs.

 The corporate profits tax is the keystone of the new tax bill.
 It is expected to provide new increase in the governments rev. enues of $620, 100000. Most of this will be in the form of income taxes collected on increased incomes due to higher corporation dividend pay ments.
 Pay No Higher
 Under the treasury theory most corporations would pay no higher federal taxes than at present. But individuals, reporting dividend in come under the normal 4 per cent tax and the higher surtax brackets would contribute substantially.
 The profits tax would discard eventually present corporation taxes. These are the excess profits tax, the capital stock tax, the corpora ton income tax and special minor taxes.
 In their place would be gradu- ated tax on corporation net in- comes. This is graduated 50 that the more a corporation keeps for reserves, the more taxes it pays. The less the reserve, the less paid.

from officials of citizens aSscia-

Maurice E. Salisbury, secretary
Of the Mid City Citizens ASsocia-

sentative DirkSen'S statement that
the park is infested with an un-

by facts.
While it may be true, he said,
that some of the tranSientS who
drift into the District seeking re-

records of the National Park and

that a greater number of people
seek the benches of the park in

almost any other park in the
