He Went Away.

This trouble sent Robinson out on
the roads over the United States on
a dodge and year after year rolled
by with tough breaks marking every
road he took. 1t seemed that Moth
ing good ever happened to him and
Lady Luck was a wench whose
frowning face met him at every
turn.
Early this fall, the peak OF his
tough breaks cracked down on Rob-
nson here in Atlanta. After IA
years Of unremitting travelling, Rob-
inson decided to come back home
and. with his little bundle of clothes
tightly tied up with a string, he con-
hdently walked into Decatur street /
rooming house, where he expected
to find an old friend.
Without looking at the room door.
Robinson walked inland came face
to face with the man he was charged
with nearly slicing to pieces with the
knife IA years ago. Five minutes
later, Robinson was in the jail he
had been lodging those IA years.
Had Robinson looked at the door
he entered in the rooming house, he
would have seen in large chalked
letters the name Of H. W. Parker,
the cause Of all his trouble.
In Jail, Robinson shrugged his
shoulders and moaned:
Just call me "Eight-Ball.
Parker. remembering a promise
he had made years ago to his moth
err to see that Robinson was prose-
cuted, boosted then that he would
see that Robinson got a nice long
stretch.
Refuses to Prosecute.
After waiting all these years for
the revenge he had promised his
mother on her deathbed, Parker de-
cided he could not 60 through with
it. He showed up the morning Of the
trial and told the solicitor general
he would not prosecute and that, so
far as he was concerned, the incl
dent was closed.
And the state was unable to locate
Tom Nance. the man whose home
Robinson was charged with having
robbed.
At last the frown Of Lady Luck
switched to a beaming smile for old
Eight Ball"
Judge Humphries, at the request
Of the solicitor general and Parker,
wrote ''nolle-prossed" across the
face Of the two 1928 indictments
against Walter ("Eight-Ball) Rob-
inson.
Old "Eight-Bau' walked out Of
court free man, shaking his head
in bewilderment. He has settled
down in Atlanta and is looking for
job.

Railroad Securities
Reported Regaining
Investment Favor
Good Goins for Carriers
In 1o41 Predicted
By Publication
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, Feb. 4.-Railroad
securities are regaining investment
favor, according to the Financial
World, which says good gains re-
ported In 1910 and prospects Of a
generally high traffic volume. longer
hauls. larger revenues per car and
relative freedom from new taxes
suggest the continuance of rails as
favored group.
Unless all present portents are
misleading, the railroads as a whole
will exceed the 1886 and 1910 re-
covery highs in l941 by a large
margin unless conditions change
drastically in the last half of the
year, says the publication in its
current issue. Good gains are
clearly indicated for the first half
IF it were not for the possibility
of significant increases in wage or
other operating costs and of direct
participation by the United States
in the war some months hence, a
substantially higher level of valua-
tions for railroad securities would
currently prevail However, these
adverse potentialities apply with
equal if not greater force to other
types of industry, particularly since
the rails, with few exceptions, are
exempt from excess profits taxes
under the 1910 legislation. The
earnings of the current year will
also be largely if not entirely free
from excess profits taxation unless
the invested capital exemption base
should be omitted from the 1941
tax legislation in the face of the
strong preference for this standard
of tax liability repeatedly expressed
by the Treasury Department.
Since tax factors are so i'm
portant in present-day investment
calculations, the fact that bond in
terest is deducted before both nor
NAL and special taxes, such as ex-
cess profits taxes and other wal
profits taxes which might be en-
acted. has been an important in.
