STRONGER
TAX UNIT
international News Service

A major consolidation Of Fed
eral tax enforcement agencies un-
der the Secret Service was pro
posed by the Treasury today.
The enforcement division Of the
alcohol tax unit, the intelligence
unit Of the Bureau Of Internal
Revenue, the customs agency
service. and the Bureau Of Mar
cotics Of the Treasury Depart
ment, all would be abolished and
their functions transferred to the
Secret Service.
The proposed change would re-
vive the historic scope Of the
Secret Service which has been con-
fined to guarding the President
and tracking down counterfeit
erS.
The Treasury'S plan was laid
before Congress in a bill intro
duced by Chairman Doughton
CD Of North Carolina, Of the
House Ways and Means Commit
tee. The plan was devised by the
Treasury to prevent overlapping
of enforcement agencies and to
better tax law enforcement.

of his great title at Cardiff, Wales,
not long before:
81 shall pray to God to make
me worthy Of being the Prince
Of Wales"
Brave, ringing words for a boy
of II and their stark sincerity
was impressive. Even then, he
believed with utter completeness
in the obligation he owed for
having been born into royalty
and. in days to come, the effect
was heightened. The world was
beginning to move faster now
and, perforce, he quickened his
life to match the pace.
Berated as Midshipmen
Before 1912 was over, he had
taken a training cruise on the
Hindustan as a lowly midShip-
man, there being the anecdote-
not altogether creditable. but di-
verting-of the lieutenant who
found him in the ward room
(where he didn't belong) a few
minutes after he came aboard.
The lieutenant, not recognizing
him, roundly berated the royal
heir, who meekly replied:
I'm sorry, sir. I didn't
know. The captain told me to
wait here"
In the same year, he was sent
incognito to France, the sympa.
thetic but temperamentally op-
posed neighbor, oStensibly to COM
plete his education but actually
as the goodwill emissary the
whole world was to come to know
in later years. He visited the
French fleet at Toulon, paid diplo-
matte calls upon those Of lofty
estate and once attended a dance
at the Marquis De Breteuils-but
not to dance. He hadn't yet Sa-
vored Of the joys of Terpischore
in those days, an activity that was
to become a passion with him.
But that was years later. Now.
he was just a very solemn boy.
Pays Respects to Kaiser
France, Germany and nearby
countries were on his itinerary of
education" the following year.
He paid his respects to his fathers
cousin, the Kaiser; met Count
Zeppelin and almost got practice
ride in the fighting blinp, the
"a. They said bad weather made
this impractical, but later allowed
him to view Zeppelin flight from
the ground.
Only a short time later, millions
of his subjects were viewing Zep-
pelin flights over England with
downright panic and worse.
For this was 1918 and the world
was tottering upon madness.

PLAIN CLOTHES
POLICEMEN
LEAD, Al

Plain clothes traffic policemen
were favored by a vote Of almost
4 to / today as the deadline for
voting approached.
With ballots pouring in from
WaShingtonianS expressing their
desire to find some solution to the
everincreasing traffic death toll,
the sentiment was overwhelmingly
in favor of a system Of a squad
of plain clothes officers in I'M
marked cars to arrest unwray
traffic violators.
The final ballots are published
in The Times today.
Throughout virtually all the
responses, the feeling was ap-
parent that some plan was neceS-
sary to curtail the number of traf-
fic accidents and the increasing
number Of deaths.
One writer, in registering his
favorable ballot, suggested the
plain clothes corps be composed
of hard boiled Army officers with
authority to crack down hard"
while another suggested that the
plan is necessary to curb drivers
who disregard pedestrian rights"
The proposal was described by
another proponent as the best
suggestion yet made to get those
who seem perfectly insane to break
the rules"
Opponents of the plan continued
to criticize it as means of in
creasing holdups. pointing out
that holdup-men will use the plain
clothes corps idea as a ruse in stop
ping automobiles to stick up"
their occupants.

A half-dozen men were in the
river, diving from logs or from the
trestle, all searching blindly.
And then, below and outside
these frantic searchers, Tip came
up with sharp little zip!
At that Young went in, swim
ming stanchly.
The dog circled and went under
again, diving for the same spot.
When he came up, his master was
beside him.
"Good dog!" he gasped and dived
for the bottom.
It was dark down there. He
drove himself deep with mighty
sweeps of his arms, with powerful
scissor-kicks of his long legs. He
held his eyes wide open, and when
he felt his ability to stay down
longer slipping rapidly, he CROPPED
wildly. His hand touched Shiny
snag; and then, lungs at the burst
ing-point, he was forced to shoot
upward.
He broke the surface, shaking
water from his eyes and gasping
air. A babel of voices was in his
ears.
He went further upstream this
time, and faced about and dived
| with the current, utilizing it's flow.
Again he found the snag, but that
was all.
Again he dived, and this time he
thought he caught a vague flash
of lighter color in the murky depths
as he drifted past. He rose quick
| ly and swan his best to get back
to point from where he coulG
dive again.
AS he turned, he saw another
swimmer so close to him AGAR
that his freedom Of action was re
stricted. Straight black hair was

FLAME in THE FOREST
by HAROLD TITUS
BY Illustrations Irwin Myers wNU Service
SYNOPSIS

Kerry Young, a lad of seven, is
prepared to flee the burning lumber
camp Of his benefactor, Jack Snow,
who took the youngster to live with
him at the death Of Kerrys mother.
Tod West has instructed Kerry to
come with a file containing the camps
funds should 1t be endangered.
Flames attack the Office, and Kerry,
hugging the precious file, and Tod
race to town. Tod acts queerly. At
the bank the file is found empty and
Kerry is blamed with taking the
wrong one. Snow, his headquarters
and money gone, is ruined, and soon
thereafter dies, leaving Kerry to the
Poor Commissioner. Kerry suspects
Tod and swears to even the score.
In a st. Paul office Kerry, now IN
manhood, and. an expert Woodsman,
learns Of the whereabouts or west.
Kerry rescues a lovely girl from
scoundrel, who proves to be west.
Tod threatens to pauperize the girl,
Nan Downer. She thanks Kerry and
tells him Of the robbery, and murder
of her father and of Tod's advances.
She is operating a lumber tract which
her father had purchased from West:
Kerry makes camp. At the general
Tod engaged in a poker game. Jim
Hinkle, timber employee, loses heav-
lily. Kerry exposes Tod's cheating
and disarms him. The crowd is UNI
convinced Of Tod's duplicity. Kerry
Identifies himself to West, who de-
MES knowing him, and advises him
to leave town. Nan tells DR.. Ezra
Adams Of Kerry's rescue Of her from
Tod and of Vests threat. Ezra, who
is coroner, visits Kerry, and appoints
him coroner's clerk. Suspicion OF
the murder had rested on Holt Stu
art, employee Of Downer, and upon
Jim Hinkle, who was cleared by Tod.
The doctor has the fatal bullet and
the serial numbers Of the stolen
bills, one Of which has just been
paid to Adams. It came out of the
poker game. Tod orders Jim to run
Kerry out Of town. Kerry discovers
he is being spied upon by breed.
Jim comes to Kerry with warning
to clear out.

He Fastened Fingers In the Mat OF
Stiff Curly Hair.
Even in that moment of stress,
Kerry had time to remark that this
was the face which had peered at
him while he shaved this morning.
Common cause, surely, child
was drowning!
He went down again, down and
down, deep and deeper. The depths
hurt his eardrums his lungs cried
out for relief from this repeated
strain. il.
And then pressure was on his
back: on the small of his back a
hand was placed; fingers were fas-
tening in his shirt.

gulped air through open mouth. A
rod below him the swarthy man
rose, splitting, and turned up
stream. He gave Young one glance,
and the dark eyes shone with
malice.
Trying that! And now, Of all
times? The fellow was not even
attempting to find the child; he
was intent on bringing harm upon
one who was. A bitter loathing
sang in Kerry's heart for a mo-
ment, but he drove it away. No
time, this, for personal animosities.
He took deep breath and went
down again, water hurting his ears,
pressing against his throat.
And once more that vague blotch

CHAPTER vl-continued

"If you know what's good for
YOU" in his manner, then was
convincing quality not present be-
fore, you'll haul out today!'
'And if I shouldn't what
then?'
Hinkle shrugged. "Well, I'd fig
ure I'd done all that anybody can
do for you by comm here" He adj
vanced a few steps, his voice mod
Grating. "I'm not handin' you any
thing, Young, I'm just DOM you a
friendly act. This country thinks
lot Of Tod, and there's men here
that won't stand to see anything
done against him."
"Yeah? West, and who elseY
''Plenty!"
Young let his head drop back
ward and laughed.
= . ,
So that was that!
He had been spied upon since
daybreak, had been warned to clear
out by an emissary who did not say
all that he thought and felt.
Not long after Jim Hinkle's de-
parture Kerry set out, Tip follow
ing at his heels.
Nan Downer looked up from her
desk and listened to Kerry's brief
speech explaining his presence.
"A job?" she asked, and surprise
in her face.
1t was not the surprise which
made the deepest impression on
Young. It was the quick coloring
of her cheeks, the changing light
in her eyes which indicated an in.
terest in him over and above any
amazement or regret or enthusiasm
which his question might have pro.
voked.
Eyes, job. You know how II
is, I guess: I've sort of got to stick
around a while; and when I'm ir
one place, I don't just banker to
loaf"
She traced a pencil-line on a PAD
before her, considering.

defying Tod West, it is your af

after?''
Kerry grinned.
