nearly two thousand miles of flight.
The Valkyr-anda as the two ships drew
closer one to the other Polly could
distinguish Marcia Talents white
clad figure in the hooded cockpit.
1t was impossible to coax an addi-
tional mile an hour from the Mystery
Maid. Seconds, even fractions of
seconds, might determine the victor;
if Polly we're to win it must be by
something more than the power of her
over-driven motor. She made swift
mental calculation based on her alti-
tude and her distance from the brightly
painted pavilion which housed the
judges; then she closed the wide open
throttle by quarter of an inch.
The air-speed meter wavered, ard
as the Valkyr forged slowly into the
lead, Polly saw Marcia Talents face
pressed to the transparent hood and
her white teeth flash in triumph. She
held her course while that lead in
creased, then - with the other ship
directly ahead of her - thrust her
stick forward and nosed the Mystery
Maid into screaming power dive
toward the judges stand She would
pass her rival in that dive and would
gain the additional speed which would
carry her first across the line!
Several seconds passed before the
other pilot observed the maneuver:
then the Valkyr's tail whipped toward
the sky and the heavier ship dived
after the Mystery Maid.
Never was there such finish to any
race The cold mathematics of time
allowances was forgotten at the sight
ofthat duel of eagles. of steel -pinioned
birds pouncing upon their prey, of a
scarlet -and-black hawk pursued by a
blue e-and-silver falcon To those who
watched, the ships themselves were
living creatures, their swift motion
controlled by cool brains hidden in the
laundering motors instead of by the
invisible girls who crouched. tight
Tipped, in the cockpits, who watched
the ground leap to meet them, and
who put off until the last possible
second the backward pull on the stick
which would case them out of the
perilous dive.
A hawk and a falcon - and the
hawk led by more than twice its own
length as Polly pulled out of the dive
and rocketed past the judges stand.
The massed spectators and the long
lines of parked automobiles were
blur before her eyes as the Mystery
Maid screamed across the width of the
port and out over the bay. There
Polly zoomed to gain altitude, banked,

PRICE FIXING AND
DEPRESSIONS

Thurman Arnold, the new assistant
attorney general Of the United States,
told the Advertising Federation of
America the other day:
in order to keep prices up, indus
try is choking off its own ave-
nues of distribution, and decreasing
employment.
"The shock of the business recession
in the steel industry is not reflect
ed in reduced prices. But steel pay
rolls have declined 55 per cent in
the past year
Mr. Arnold has directed attention
to one of the worst things about mo-
nopolistic control Industries like
steel and cement, where a handful Of
managers and a much smaller hand
ful of bankers dictate industrial pol
icy, fix their prices and hold them
to the limit. If the public cannot buy
at these prices, the plants close; but
the prices do not drop. A world wide
bumper crop Of wheat means cheaper
wheat though not, in this country,
cheaper bread. But the equivalent of
a bumper crop in steel does not mean
cheaper steel. 1t merely means idle
and hungry steel workers.
THE power to fix prices without
public responsibility is the same as
the power to tax without responsible
ity," said Mr.. Arnold agan; and again
he is right. If the present antitrust
laws cannot stop this extortion, other
laws must be found,

MICHIGAN FLOOD
 BEGINS RECEDINC

Detroit, Mich, Feb. &(UP)- Floods which swept over the east ern Michigan, causing heavy pro perty damage and much suffering, receded slightly today with cessa- ton of rains and slightly lower temperatures.
 The rains and unseasonably warm weather crumbled ice-jams--form- ed 10 days ago when zero tempera- lures froze flood waters--and raised streams far over their banks.
 In their wake, the subsiding waters left broken communications, ruined bridges, and more than 800 homeless families. Telephone and natural gas services were dis rupted at Vassar by the overflow from the Cass river.
 Lowlands were inundated from Detroit, north to the Thumb district trict and west to Holland. A fore cast of warmer temperatures and more rain throughout the west por- tion brought concern of more ser ious flood damage.

SOVIET ENVOY IN

Bucharest, Rumania, Feb. 8-(UP) The Soviet legation announced to- day that its charge d'affaires, Theo- dore Butenko, disappeared mySteri- ously Sunday night.
 Soviet officials said they had been unable to find a trace of the mis- sing man. Police were asked to search.
 The Soviet legation said Butenko left the legation in a taxi to go to his home nearby.
 The driver said that he saw him enter the house in which he occu- pied an apartment on the second floor.
 Butenko never reached his apart- ment, however, it was said, and blood was found on the marble staircase. Samples of the blood were taken by court chemists for an examination.
 The taxi driver and the porter at Butenkos apartment house were questioned along with several other persons but if they shed any light on the disappearance, it was not divulged.

Your Income Tax
Deductions for Professional
 EXpenSeS


 A professional man may deduct all necessary expenses incurred in the pursuit of his profession. These include the cost of supplies used in his practice, office rent, cost of light, water, fuel and telephone in his office, the hire of office assistants, and expenses paid in the operation and repair of an automobile based upon the proportion of time it is used in making professional calls or for other professional purposes.
 Many physicians use their resi- denceS both as their offices and their homes. In such instance the physician may deduct as business expense the rental value of the rooms occupied for office purposes if he actually pays rent, and also the cost of light and heat furnished these rooms. Also, he may deduct a portion of the wages paid domes- tic servants whose time is partly oc- cupied in caring for these rooms. Membership dues in professional societies are deductible. Physicians and dentists who keep in their wait ing rooms current magazines and newspapers for the benefit of their patients may deduct this item as a business expense. The cost of pro- fessional journals for the taxpayers own use is also deductible item.
 The cost of technical books is not a deductible item, being capital expenditure, but a proportionate amount for each years depreciation of the books may be deducted. Depreciation may also be taken on office furniture and equipment. h. surance premiums on office or other professional eQuipr:ent and liability insurance may be deducted.

Providence, R. T., Feb. 8-CUP)- Turfman Walter E. O'Hara prepared today to make a last-ditch fight to retain control of the $3,000, 900 horse race track he built three years ago.
 Stockholders of the Narragansett Racing Association, Inc, will meet tomorrow in extraordinary session to vote whether to keep O'Hara as 75,o00-a-year president and man. aging director of the track, Narra- gansett park in nearby Pawtucket.

 At the same time, however, he expressed confidence he would win the battle of proxies at tomorrow's meeting. He charged that since the fight to oust him began, tens of thousands of shares of stock have been sold to a group linked to racketeerS."

The railroads in 1887 bought ma- terials and supplies or fuel in 95 citeis and towns distributed through out every one of the eight counties in the state of Conencticut. This fact and the nationwide spread of railway purchases was revealed in a series of exhibits which J. J. Pel- ley, president of the Association of American Railroads, recently pre- scented to the special Senate Com- mittee now investigating Unemploy- ment and Relief.
 National Purchases
 For the nation as a whole, these exhibits showed that last year pur- chases of materials, supplies and fuel amounting to total of $900,- 100000 were made by the railroads in 12,174 cities and towns located in 2,637 counties of 8 total of 3,072 counties in the AS staets of
