MINNESOTA
REDUCES TAX
ON GASOLINE

Automobile clubs, tourist agencies
and oil company travel bureaus in
Maryland have been notified of 1c
per gallon reduction in the Minnesota
gasoline tax effective September 1.
This reduction, the first state gasoline
tax cut to occur since 1886, will save
motorists, including Maryland tour
lists about $5,OOO,O0O annually, and
will return the state gasoline tax rate
to &c a gallon.
According to j. P. Lanigan, Secre-
tary of the Maryland Petroleum In
dustries Committee termination of
similar emergency gasoline taxes is
scheduled to occur in eleven other
states in the next few years. These
states include Florida, Massachusetts,,
Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire,
New York, North Dakota, Ohia, Penn
sylvania, Tennessee and West Virgin
ia.
Minnesota's emergency tax went in
to effect in 1897 when the gasoline
tax was increased 1c gallon to raise
money to match federal funds for
highway construction, but Roy Dunn,
majority leader of the Minnesota
House of Representatives who led the
fight against reenactment of the
emergency tax, pointed out that less
highway construction work was COM
pleted under the &c gasoline tax rate
than had previously been accomplish
ed under &c per gallon tax.
Somewhere, sometime, somehow,
we must start cutting taxes, and this
temporary gas tax provided a good
beginning" Mr.. Dunn declared. "Rea-
sonable limitation of revenue is a
practical factor in prompt correction
of extravaganza and waste and in the
creation of foundation of efficiency
and accomplishment for the future.
Here was a tax which could be abol-
ished without replacing it with anoth-
err tax. We had promised the motor
lists of the state that the emergency
gasoline tax was to be only tenn
porary measure, and 1, for one, be-
lieved that promise should be kept"
Petroleum marketers in Minnesota
are currently announcing a 1c per
gallon reduction In the price of gas
oline to dealers and consumers on
September LIST as a result of the tax
decrease. They point out that motor
lists will save about $1,5O0,OO0 in the
remaining months of this year and
about $5,OOO,OOO a year thereafter.

CRISFIELD HOME is
WRECKED BY FIRE

Fire early Saturday morning almost
completely destroyed one building,
slightly damaged two others, and
threatened number of other homes
over a two block area on Broadway
and South Fourth street.
The blaze originated in the building
occupied by Mrs. Neal Reamy and
Mrs. Myrtle Mock, on Broadway, not
far from Fourth and had eaten through
the rear of the wooden frame struc-
ture before the alarm was given.
Immediately after the alarm was
sounded the Crisfield Fire Depart
ment dispatched two engines to the
scene and it was only through the
valiant efforts of the local fire-eaters
that the blaze was confined in the
main, to the one structure.
Famed by a fairly brisk Northeast
wind the fire spread to other sections
of the house in which it originated,
almost completely cutting the dwell
ing and leaving practically nothing
standing but the side walls.
During the height of the fire sparks
were carried by the wind to the roofs
of buildings in the area of the blaze
catching fire to two houses, occupied
by colored families, on Fourth St.

STAFFORD NEGRO KILLED
IN AUTO CRASH

James Banks, a respected negro OF
this section, was Wednesday night in
stantly killed and a car load of peo-
pie who he was driving, including
his wife, Willie Mae Banks, his neph-
ews, George and Harry Smith, and Ed
ma Crockett, were severely cut and
otherwise injured when he apparent
ly drove his car out of the single-lane
Middleford road directly into the side
of a heavy loaded lumber truck NOV
ing north along Route 13.
w. G. Wimbrow, of Oak Hall, Va,
owner and driver of the truck, and
Smut Copes, his helper, were but
slightly injured in the accident, but
their truck which was loaded with fin
ished lumber, was overturned and bad
ly damaged.
Investigators at the scene of the
accident are inclined to believe that
Banks failed to notice the approaching
truck. His car was smashed almost
beyond recognition, and this fact pro-
badly saved the lives of several of the
occupants inasmuch as they were hurl-
ed out of the car when the crash oc-
Cured. The Seaford Fire Department
ambulance was rushed to the scene
and all of the occupants of the Banks
car save the dead driver were rushed
to Milford Memorial Hospital. Con-
dition of Mrs. Banks and Edna Crock
EFT was critical as we go to press.
Wimbrow, driver of the truck, was
held under $1,000 bond for his appear
ance at an inquest which was held
last Thursday.
The accident occurred abut 9 P. M.
and several hundred persons in Sea-
ford and in Bridgeville sped to the
scene. Early reports that reached
here indicated that four people had
been killed.

Dill Attacks
Langlie Plans

ABERDEEN-A bombshell was
hurled into the gubernatorial cam
paign at a rally here Thursday
night when former u. s. Senator
c. c. Dill. Democratic candidate
for governor. charged that his
opponents proposed taxation pro-
gram. based on his record as
mayor of Seattle" will be one of
taxing the necessities of life"
what did he do when he be-
came mayor Of Seattle ?" Dill
queried. 'T'll tell you He boost
ed the water rates In the King
county city TO cover a $500, 900
deficit in the budget. And, ne
hasn't yet revealed what he did
with that money.
II say TO put a tax on water
IL to put a tax on the first neces-
sity of life. And. that just goes
to show the principal of his taxa
ton program. Should he become
governor, he'll tax the necessities
of life.
HE may tax electricity
that's q necessity of life. II
he taxes electricity he will
destroy all the benefits Of
labor and industry to be- de-
rived from cheap electrical
energy from Grand Coulee
and Bonneville dams"
Dill accused his opponent of
bold attempt" to get the support
OF labor In the last stages of the
campaign when he asked the city
council for SOL 900 to be used as
back pay" to cover wage cuts
of employees In the Seattle city
garbage department.
"Hc hasn't denied he cut the
pay of the garbage department
employees" Dill declared. yet
when this was brought to the at
tention of the voters, he cried:
Red herring
81 charge" Dill concluded, "that
my opponents attempt to rush
through this appropriation of S9i.-
900 to cover the pay cuts of gar
bage department employees Is an
attempt to get the support of
labor support that have
because / kept my word with

Young Quakers Told
They Can Bear Arms
Il Conscience Permits
Southwestern Friends
Leave Question Of War
Up to individuals

BY the Associated Press.
WICHITA, Kans.. June =
Quakers of the Southwest will leave
the question of bearing arms in war
time, which once meant exclusion
from the church, to the individual
conscience.
The Quakers plan to tell their
young men only why, as the new
generation of Friends, they should
not bear arms.
The problem of non-aggression
will be major topic when 900
representatives of 10000 Quakers of
Kansas, Nebraska. Oklahoma, Texas,
Missouri and Colorado have their
annual meeting in Wichita in
October.
Peace Caravan to Tour.
When classes at Friends University
in Wichita ended recently President
w. A. Young called the young men
of the school together and gave
them an assignment" for their
vacation consideration of what they
should do if the United States be-
came involved in war. He told
them it was a matter of individual
conscience.
A university peace caravan" will
tour Eastern small towns this sum-
mer explaining why Quakers believe
war. whatever the cause, is wrong,
and DR.. Young plans IS peace talk"
in the Southwest during the coming
year.
Every Man Partakes Of Divine"
The principle of the Quaker dis
belief in war, DR.. Young explains.
is that every man has in him some
thing of the divine. We abhor the
thought of sticking a bayonet in
the temple of God We will help.
as we have, in rehabilitating, feeding
and clothing him after war" In the
World War most Quakers confined
themselves to non-combatant duty.
The policy extends back to George
Fox, the first Quaker, who early in
the 17th century refused to bear
arms for Oliver Cromwell and spent
time in prison as a traitor.
During the Civil War, Southern
Quakers refused military service.
Northern Quakers, partly because
slavery was involved, consented to
military service to some extent.
