FACED with the need for more
lands and wider opportunities
,or its people, Great Britain hit
upon a novel colonization scheme
lust 100 years ago, strikingly
analogous TO Uncle Sans Mata-
nuska settlement in Alaska. Brit
ain tried out this plan in South
Australia.
At a time when its Immigrant
system was proving fatal to emil
grafton in Australia, a plan was
evolved exchanging labor for land,
and permitting purchase Of lands
for a small sum.
A tract of 10000 acres was al
lotted the first 100 families, while
a loan of 200 pounds each was
made, by way of orders on mer-
chants, to enable the settlers to
purchase necessary equipment.
But the British went even a BIZ
further. No money actually was
used in the transactions. The
earnings of the settlers and the
value created by their labor was
represented in the extent and i'm
provement of their lands, the irri-
cation developed, the stock raised,
and the general progress of the
community. At the end of Is
years each settler was sufficiently
well anchored to work independ-
emily thereafter.
So the great, South Australia
country took its place in the eco
Monies of the orld-903, 0oo
square miles, rich in gold, copper
agriculture. Today its 100000 in
habitants thrive in many fields

marked the centenary Of South
Australia. y

when they sold blocks Of stock to
each other. In contrast with that.
Yesterdays decision indicates that
Lammot du Pont esta blished a de-
ductible loss merely by transferring
his securities from his personal strcns
box to his corporate strong box.
There is no reason for disregard
ing the fact that petitioner and COR
poration were separate and distinct
entities" wrote Miller, after discard
ing any suggestion that the corpora
tion's dealings had been for the pur-
pose OF avoiding income taxes
On a smaller point. Du Pont lost
out on his tax appeal. The board
did not allow him to deduct S3l. 1893
as a bad debt from his 1890 income,
on the grounds that the loss had really
occurred in 1925 and should have
been deducted then. and also because
the board was in doubt whether Du
Pont had ever considered the loan
in question as an investment.
This loss had resulted from Du
Points generous financing, in 1924, of
an expedition conducted by his friend,
r. O. Marsh, to discover white In
dams in Panama. In all, Du Pont
advanced s46.392 to this expedition,
on notes OF Marsh. and he was to have
received half OF the profits from it,
But. although Marsh found the
white Indians" there were no profits.
Du Points personal company bears
strong family resemblance to those
which have held such A prominent
place in recent tax discussions, except
that there was no suggestion 1t was
formed to avoid Federal income taxes
and that it was liouidated in 1891.
Known as the Saint Armour Co., It
bought and sold securities for its
owner and also owned and operated
the Buck and Doe Run Valley Farms,
located in the State OF PENNSYLVANIA
and containing about $500 acres"
There was nothing in the decision to
indicate whether the farms were run
At profit or ut Z loss, like those
which have figured in the tax avoid
Ance discussions.
Du Pont, 4 resident OF Whining ton,
Del, formed the Saint Armour Co.
in 1923 and turned over to it several
thousand shares OF stock in a variety
OF industrial companies. valued at
1888, ,see.S3, 1t purchased other
stocks and from time to time he lent

to buy them. When 1t vaA finally
