Guffeys to Move
Senator Joseph Guffey and his
trio of sisters, Miss Pauletta, Miss
Ida and Mrs. Carroll Miller, are to
become even more closely attached
to Washington than they are now.
While they always will maintain
their Pennsylvania residence, they
are to own a home in the Capital
which is under construction and
will be ready for them next
spring.
It is Georgian in design, will
have twenty rooms and lovely
garden, which is one of the chief
delights of the Guffeys in their
present residence on Kalorama
Road. Their new home is to be
on Benton Street, overlooking
Rock Greek lark.
The Senator is here today and
gone tomorrow and may remain
a day or a week, so indefinite is
his schedule for the coming
months. In the meantime the
Misses Guffey have been enjoying
a motor trip in Virginia. They
visited Williamsburg and hap
pened accidentally upon the home
which John D. Rockefeller, jr., is
building for his own use. They
plan their trips for the middle of
the week to avoid traffic on the
highways and found particular
pleasure in visiting Natural Bridge.
Mrs. Miller is with her husband
at their home in Pennsylvania, and
will not be in the Capital for any
lengthy visit until the fall.
Others who have moving ideas
for the fall are Mr.. and Mrs. Ar
thur Mullen. They find the
Georgetown residence they have
been occupying for the last couple
of seasons too large now that their
son, Arthur Mullen, jr., is married
and living in Detroit. Following
a North Cape cruise they have
been visiting in Germany, witness
ing the recent Olympic Games.
They are undecided whether to
lease smaller house or take up
their residence in an apartment
hotel. Time enough to decide that

pean holiday, the latter part Of

WASHINGTON, March 25.-Treas-
ury statistics indicated today that
the nations income tax payments
for the current calendar year will
be more than 81 400 ,O00, 900. of which
New York State will pay an esti-
mated one-third.
The New York proportion of the
income tax burden will rise about
3 per cent from last year, it was
estimated on the basis of receipts
at the Bureau of Internal Revenue
from March to March 20. when
the annual payments are heaviest.
Last fiscal years total payments
were $1,099 ,230, 1888 as compared to
the 81 00,000,000 estimated for the
present calendar year. President
Roosevelt this year estimated pay
ments for the fiscal year ending
next June at 434,000,0OO.
Corporations Big Contributors
In surveying this years prospec-
tus. it was estimated that almost
half of the New York State contri-
button would be by corporations
under the present tax structure.
