Will Investigate Trust,

Treasury officials said tonight the
estate of Andrew W. Mellon would be
exempt from huge inheritance taxes If
1t goes to charity.
II the estate had been left to IN
dividuals and had amounted to
$500 100000 as some persons estimat-
ed, the combined State and Federal in
heritance taxes would have been
S347 100000. If the estate was $780,
100000 as others estimated, the tax
would have been s67,OOO,00O.
Offlcials said operations of the
Mellon trust fund will be studied in
detail before a final decision is made
on taxabiliey of the beouest. They
said it is customary to examine
philanthropic bequests with extreme
care before granting exemptions.

EVERYDAY THOUGHTS

Always remember
That 95 per cent of accidents are
preventable.
That accidents and safety are
state of mind and not fate.
That an accident Injuries your pres
tige as well as your body.
That an accident can interrupt and
change a whole life pattern.
Each year in the United States
100000 people suffer injury. The
majority of these accident victims suf-
fer slight physical inconvenience but
every slight injury is potentially a
major one. If we overcame the causes
Of the slight injuries there will be a
lessening Of major injuries and acci-
dental deaths.
That universal safety device-the
human brain should find more use in
industry, in the home, in public places,
in the school and in driving your auto.
Are you using this God-given safety
device as you should in order to eniov
more abundant life?

tutions of this nation are being
threatened with extinction by the ex-
istence, continuance and activity of
said cesspools Of poverty, unfair labor
practices and concentrated wealth;
1t further appearing that the citi-
zens Of this nation are increasingly
deprived of life, liberty, and the pur-
suit of happiness through the normal

defendants;
Now therefore, this court, being
fully advised in the premises, and in
consideration of all the facts herein
before set forth, does hereby deter
mine, decree and order:
First, that the president, the con-
gress and the supreme court of the
United States of America shall forth
with use all of their authority and
exercise all their powers, working to-
gether to the end that cesspooIs Of
poverty be forever abolished in the
confines of this nation;
Second, that the three said depart
ments of the government, working
together shall use all their powers
and authority to the end that unfair
labor practices be finally abolished,
and collective bargaining substituted
therefor;
Third, that the three departments
of the government shall consider and
carry into effect such measures as
shall be suitable for the control Of
all national wealth, to the end that
(a) there shall be ample production

Union Pact-Pays $4,000

New York (ILNS)-Collection of
$4,000 from the Kaplan and Elias
Dress Co., in settlement of union
claims for under payment of workers
and other violations of a collective
agreement was announced here by
julius Hochman, general manager Of
the Joint Board of the Dressmakers'
Union. The latest payment by Kaplin
and Elias brings the total paid bv
the firm for violations of its agree
ment with the union to s54,100.
The present case grew out of in
vestigations showing that Kaplan &
Elias had been underpaying it's work
ers and violating the agreement in
shops at Woonsocket, r. l.. and Har-
risburg, Pa. There were additional
charges that number of contractors
producing garments for Kaplan e
Elias had been underpaying their
workers.

It further appearing that the said
unfair labor practices persist always
and especially where collective bar
gaining is not practiced freely;
1t further appearing that concen-
trated wealth exists largely by virtue
Of a system of debts, owing to a
small number of persons from the

brought about by the manipulation of

for the advantage of a few, by the

Stuckey jumped to his feet.

"Sit down and shut up" said the
colonel. Now be sensible, Charles.
There's three hundred thousand
pounds here-fallen from heaven,
as it were. We cut it five ways
and take three. That'n mean
sixty thousand each for Jimmy and
you-and' Jimmy gets the girl
thrown in. He may, of course" he
added refectively, want more for
that, but never mind that now"
The solicitors eyes were fixed on
Lutman with a stare Of intense but
impotent hatred. His fists clenched;
his right arm was drawn back as
though he would throw himself vio-
lently upon the other man. With
a tremendous effort of self-re-
straint, however, he drew himself
up to his full height and shook in
Lutman's direction a hand the fin
gers of which quivered convulsively.

to do with it,"

"But nothing! Get cut!"
The colonel rose. On his face
was still the sardonic snlile-it was
rarely missing but now his voice
had taken on a different note: a
note Of authority, of menace.

He took out his pocketbook and

Charles had sunk back into the
chair in front of his desk; his weak
fury had gone from him and in it's
place had appeared look of dumb
resignation.

Its a historical document" the
Colonel went on. "a request for a
loan Of three hundred and fifty
pounds by a young solicitors clerk
who had misapplied the money of
one of his employers clients and
had to put it back in a hurry"
What a fool was, Lutman,

other.
Charles leaned across his desk,
his forearms resting on his blot

you were my friend. I'd; done one

The colonel smiled.
VERY likely; in fact, I believe

"Why do you keep that piece Of
evidence in your pocket ?" i
Don't worry" said Lutman: "I
shan't lose it. And I also carry a
little memorandum book that I
wouldn't let the police see for
worlds. thought the sight of
your letter might stimulate you to

''Melodramatic," said Charles.
