Legend, of course, insists that there
were sandwiches in the world long
before John Montagu fourth Earl Of
Sandwich. made them famous. We
are told that when the Romans con-
quered Britain in the first century Of
the Christian era they taught the
people how to make q concoction
called an "ofIula," which was a COM
bination Of foods, very similar to the
sandwich. But casual history over
looks this fact, and places all the
credit squarely on the shoulders Of
Montagu.
The word sandwich" is not found
In the early editions of Johnson's s
Dictionary, nor in Todd nor Rich
ardson. Latham recognizes it for the
first time in his edition of johnson,
citing Byron as his authority.

The Old Gordener Soys !:

Garden makers often ask If It
Is desirable to remove the faded
flowers from rhododendrons and
mountain laurel. The answer is
yes. 1t is a tedious task, but it
is much better that the dead
flowers be removed. This pre-
vents the strength of the plants
from going into seed production
and encourages vigorous growth
to produce next years flowers.
The seed clusters OF most rhodo-
dendrons are easily removed by
twisting them between the fingers.
In doing this be careful not to
break the new shoot that is de-
veloping at the base Of the cluster.
The seed clusters of mountain
laurel are more diflcult to break
from the stems and usually 1t Is
better to use q sharp knife.

c. F. STAN, counsel for the
committee, announced his group
will probably meet with the Dis
trict Advisory Committee on Taxa
ton, headed by District Auditor
Daniel Donovan, sometime next
week, to discuss the committees
findings to date.
STUDYING STATES
The committee is looking into
tax structures of States through
out the country with a view to
determining which, if any, of the
taxes now levied, are applicable
in the District.
It is understood that the COM
mittee, which will not commit
itself before a full study is COM
pleted, believes that an income
tax, such as the House turned
down last session, is more equit-
able tax than a general sales tax.
INCOME TAX
On the other hand, it is felt
that an income tax per Sc falls
down as an adequate tax yield
because of its fluctuations be-
tween periods Of prosperity and
times of depression.
Some time ago the committee
announced it had under consid-
Grafton, among other types of
levies, a combination income and
sales tax, which would levy a tax
on business income and invest
ments, while at the same time a
general sales tax would apply.
