most humping the little steamer
out of the water altogethcr-and
then slapped it mischievously here
and there with its mighty tail
One Of those blows of the flukcs
had made mischief indeed. 1t had
happened to sJikc the frcightcr
in its most vulnerable point, the
stern. That waAwhen rudder and
screw were damaAed. Until some
thing happened TO divert the great
whale from his play the ship was
forced to wallow there and simply
wait.
Something did h happen now,
though. Suddenly white foam
creamed asout the sides of the
Sulphur-bottom. The pack of orcas
had come, Like the ravenin G
wolves they were they charged and
slaShed, bit and tugged free long
strips of skin and white blubber
from the TANKS of the giant.
Big whales are not very SenSi-
tive creatures. Ii took the giant
little while TO realize that he
actually was being attacked, and
might even be in eventual danger
of his life.
But in due time the StinCS and
the bleeding from many small
wounds began 10 bother him end
abruptly he deserted his amatory
play with the freight vessel, and
sounded.
This was good treatment for
most Fostering enemies, but il did
not work here for sour apples.
Tho orCaS were whales. too, and
they could withstand the pressure
and cold OF the depths Just as well
as the BIG sulphur-bottom.
So they sounded right along
with their Cargantuan prey and
kept buSily gnawing away at the
, huge cylinder Of flesh and bone.
Little by little the Sulphur-bot-
tom got worried, then frantic He
t, came 10 the surface. dashed about
with killing strokes of his great
+ tail and actually did crush one
of the orcas.
This helped a little as two Of The
, other orcaS Immediately stopped

not until the big whale acct
dentally came up right beside the
frcighter again. that he did get

10. What is the effect
of reducing diUi-
dend payments?

Reports OF the treasury depart
ment for 1910 (the latest year
available) show that in that
year AZ per cent OF the total
dividend payments went TO peo-
pie whose net income was under
$1,000. to charitable institutions
such as hospitals. schools and
churches, and 10 those who did
not file returns. II Is estimated
that altogether there are be-
tween 8 and 9 million stock
holders in the country. A re-
duction in dividends below a
minimum figure would not only
result in a loss TO the govern
ment in the amount II collects
from individuals in income taxes.
but would also work serious
hardships upon many institu-
tons and the millions of low
and middle income people who
are dependent upon dividends

Approved Over
Presidents Plea

WASHINGTON. Oct 1s tINs).
House and Senate conferees on
the new tax bill agreed today to
freeze the old age pension pay roll
tax at the present level through
1943. despite the objection OF
President Roosevelt.
The conferees, who are ironing
out differences between the rev.
enue bills passed by the House and
Senate, accepted a Senate amend
ment that would retain for an ad-
ditional year the present levy of
one per cent on employees and one
per cent on employers.
Under the Social Security Act,
the old age pension levy would
have stepped up automatically TO
two per cent on employees and two
per cent on employers on January
/. The senate amendment sus-
ponds this automatic increase.
AFFECTS 40 MILLION
This means that 10000, 900 per-
sons who otherwise would have
had deducted from pay envelopes
a maximum of old age pension tax
next year of $50, will continue to-
pay up TO $50.
The result will be a tax saving
OF about $1,000. 900, 900 to salariedl
personnel and wage earners and
an equal amount to busin ness
houses. The government, on the
other hand, will lose about $1,000
000,00 This sum would have gone
into the old age pension fund. and
would have been borrowed from
this fund 10 help finance the war.
The conferees hurried through
the task of working out the final
form of the revenue bill in order
that it may be passed early. next
week and sent 10 the White House
for the Presidents signature.
The conferees accepted Senate
amendments reducing the I m e
limit for short-term capital gains
10 six months, boosting the levy
ION gambling devices from $50 TO
$500 each, and retaining the pres
ent rate OF Is cents a pound on
smoking tobacco.
