Tax experts who have studied
these proposals inform me that
they will produce an additional
revenue Of many millions of dollars.
Thus, If you adopt a tax revis-
ion program in accordance with
ability to pay, we need have no
fear that the state will be unable
to meet all Of its obligations to its
citizens in full. This is the proper
method for raising governmental
revenue, recognized by tax experts
throughout the world. AS a matter
o. fact, the cost Of all social secur-
ity should be borne by a tax on
wealth-state and federal. It Is per-
fectly proper for you to urge Con-
gress to revise our national tax
system so that social security will
be paid by wealth and not by the
masses who can Ill afford it.
In conclusion, may say that the
program I have outlined to you Is
the kind Of program the voters on
November third said they wanted
adopted in this state. IF you will
carefully examine the political doc
uments of the last election, you will
find support for this program not
only in the utterances Of the spokes-
men Of the party to which belong,
but Of the spokesman Of the oppos-
ition as well. There Is no reason,

This most commendable outfit is
sure to prove an inspiration to the
schoolgirl. 1t was shown at re-
cent fall style clinic held in the
Merchandise Mart in Chicago.
Viewing the new fall fabrics one
becomes fully convinced that plaids
as fashion unjust" are definitely
here. It is interesting to note that
the more classic plaids are labeled
each with it's clan name. Also the
many smart ways to wear plaids
makes them all the more intriguing.
In enrolling as plaid enthusiast
we suggest that you line your jacket
to match your plaid blouse, or wear
a plaid dress matched to the lining
of your coat, or top a pleated plaid
skirt with bright velveteen jacket,
or enliven your fur coat or your
fleece coat with a stunning plaid lin
ing. They are showing in the stores
daring coats in forest green; radiant
autumn browns, and the very new
deep sapphire blue with bold plaid
Innings in giddy contrast.
Plaid velvet dresses to wear I'M
der fur coats is another outcome of
the present craze for plaids. You
can also find cunning jackets of
plaid velveteen. Some are bolero
versions with plaid belts to match.
If it is just a touch of plaid you
favor, buy a dozen or so of the
new plaid composition buttons and
let them 60 marching down the
front of your dark velveteen dress
or coat. You can get all sorts of
plaid accessories. There are en-
sembles of beret, bag and belt.
There are belt and triangle-scarf
sets to be had in plaid.

FASHION STRESSES
FABRIC ELEGANCE
BY CHERIE NICHOLAS

Fabrics play a most important
part this year, and by their rich
ness explain the apparent simplicity
of the styles which are the great
est challenge to the dressmaker.
Velvets, lanes, brocades, laces.
tulles are all in the picture.
Lace becomes a happy medium
for day dresses, almost severe in
their simplicity. These may be re-
lieved by rich belts, patent trim
mings, etc. Lighter laces in silk or
rayon are combined with colored
fabric lining for day dresses or two
tones used in combination as Worth
has done. Lelong takes heavy
white wool lace for a hip-length
top of dress which ends in SIM
pie black velvet skirt, with four
rows of the velvet used at the side
front from the high waistline to the
hip. Patou offers rosepoint collars,
cuff or bodice trim with severe
dresses-but real rose point. Schiap-
arelli makes lace of gold cord for
three huge medallions on the top
per of two-piece effect black marc
cain. While dresses are simple in
effect, fantasy goes into the head
gear.

it, when it comes to swank in
dress. There's no doubt about it,
colorful, youthful practical plaids fit
into the campus, the Office and the
great outdoor scheme of things sim
ply perfect.
All sorts of plaids are on the au-
tunn fabric list from high-tone
dressy plaids of silk velvet and
handsome wool weaves down to the
most utilitarian, practical, washable
types-the kind that go bicycling
along dusty roads and then come
out "fresh as a daisy after each
Tubing.
Bicycling is a fad so important
nowadays designers recognize they
must create fashions tuned to the
sport. The new sturdy washable
plaids are proving most likable for
outfits of this sort. The girl on the
"bike" as shown in the group illus
trated is fashionably and sensibly
frocked in a dependable completely
shrunk washable plaid that gives
this rider the look of being keenly
style-minded.
The schoolgirl conferred in the
picture is likewise alertly fashion
conscious in that she also selects
plaid for her voguish blouse, and
it's safe to say she will be getting a
lot of wear out of it besides enjoy
ing that feeling of confidence it
brings to be appropriately clad for
the occasion.
Another way to subscribe to the
plaid rage that is now featuring in
every phase of fashion is to wear
a true clan plaid skirt and necker-
chief with your new fall sweater as
shown to the right in the group.

The Sucker Crop.

PARLIAMENT, next month, will
L pass statutes to curb stock mar
ket tricksters, f1y-by-night brokers,
and bucket shop operators who, it's
estimated, are fleeing the British
public to the tune of $25, 100000 an
nually.
We've tried it and it doesn't work.
AS Barnum stated, a sucker is born
every minute and sometimes
twins. But the crooks who prey on
the sucker crop, like the Dionne
quintuplets, come along in patches.
That breed spawn close to shore and
the young all survive.
Thus is the rule of supply and de-
mand balanced. In good times,
there are just enough suckers to go
around. In hard times, the suckers
grow scarce, but, when one comes
along, the crooks rattle him off and
the winner takes all.
Anyhow, legislation won't save
sucker from himself-at least not
in this country. He'll break through
the law in order to prove he's a
sucker in good standing in the suck
ers' lodge.
BY the way, brother-member, how
many degrees have you taken?

Style Sobriety Stressed
for Chic Daytime Costume

At the height of the vogue for ro-
mantle fashions, mutinous muir
murs are echoing from the ranks of
style leaders who favor simple gar
ments for wear before the sun goes
down.
"Sobriety of the best quality" is
the formula advanced by leading
French couturiere as the prime req
uisite of daytime chic.
''Wear tailored suits and little
sweaters" she advises, "but have
them fitted by a good tailor and
made of the finest wool. See that
each accessory is equally first
grade, for one inappropriate gadget
can spoil the entire costume"

Achievement of Peace

YOU may either win your

resistance to evil; buy it, by

base connivances-buy it with
the blood of the slain, and the

hearths, muttering continually
to yourselves, "Peace, peace"

Pioneer Travellers Delayed by Buffalo Herds

One of the most celebrated buffalo
hunters of the early day was Buffalo
Bill who won his Sobriquet from the
occupation he followed. At the time Of
the construction of the Union Pacific
railroad in 1867, he was hired to fur
nish fresh buffalo meat to the camp.
The name Bill and buffalo became i'll
separable. During one year, Buffalo
Bill killed for the railroad, 1920 buf-
falo with the help of his pony "Old
Brigham" and his breach-loader, "Lu
cretia Borgia."
Jim White was another noted buf-
falo hunter of the west. After a kill,
he would return to his camp and tell
his skinners just where to find the
buffalo. So accurately could he de-
scribe the country that his men seldom
missed finding a single animal.
Jim White, like all of the early
hunters, made his own bullets. In order
to do this, it was necessary to carry
with him lead bars which could be
melted in the dutch oven, mixed in the
right proportions with tin and then
nlClded.
In 1929, Mr.. Kershner of Shell, Wyo.,
accidentally uncovered dug-out that
the years had filled up. He discovered
what at first he thought were dry
sticks but which upon closer investiga-
ton proved to be soft bars of bullet
lead. There were So bars, each one half
a pound in weight, each bar plainly
marked E. w. Blatchford & Co., Chi
cago. (This company is still doing busi-
ness. These bars were the ones used by
Jim White and his helpers in making
their bullets. They had been living in
the dug-out when Jim White was killed.

 SEEKING FREEDOM
No Consideration to Be Given Local Mans Plea
 Until September l7th

No consideration will be given any of Dennis McCarthy'S measures to- ward release from jail until Sep- tember IT. when the first short cal- endar session of superior court will be presided over by Judge Edwin O. Dickenson here.
 Mccarthy, serving a 20 to 30 year term in states prison for being a third offender. has filed plea for a new trial, and in connection with this is seeking a writ of habeas corpus so that he may be present at the hearing on that clea.
 Possibility that a hearing might be conducted on the habeas corpus proceedings before the 17th was erased when 1t was learned today that Judge Dickenson, to whom both measures have been referred, telephoned the office of the clerk of superior court and said. "I'll take cars of both matters when get thHre on September IT,"
 at had been considered possible that Judge Dickenson might con. duct 8 special hearing on the ha- beas corpus measure before the date set for the actual hearing on the new trial plea. It isfstill pos- sible that Judge Dickenson will deny the habeas corpus motion and proceed with the new trial plea without allowing Mccarthy to be present. Mccarthy desires release from prison for the day of the hear ing so that he can prosecute the matter himself.
