BonkrupcY Cdses Paying
Up Back Income Tuxes

Scranton, Pa.-The Federal grand
jury's investigation into the conduct OF
Federal Judges Albert w. Johnson and
Albert l.. Watson has struck pay dirt.
Within the past 60 days number
of individuals whose activities in con-
nectiOn with bankruptcy cases handled
by Johnson and Watson have been
under investigation, have asked per-
mission to amend their 1912 and 1913
income tax returns.
As result, Joseph T. Macdonald.
collector of internal revenue, has re-
ceived additional income payments of
nearly $2500O0 from these persons
with more to come.
Internal revenue officials said exact
figures were not available, but esti-
mated the payments cover taxes Oh
about $1,000,000 of income not previ-
ously reported. That gives some. idea
of the size of the scandal being aired.
In the various bankruptcy cases un-
der the jury's spotlight, the question
arose as to who actually pocketed the
money involved and whether income
taxes had been paid on the fees.
The crooks who neglected doing so
are now trying to get under cover and
escape a 30 per cent penalty which
may be imposed for filing fraudulent
tax returns.

The beast got it's reputa-

During the last 10 years,

The same odd tail was

If this is the case, all the
man-eating crimes that the

of are imaginary because
the dugong is only a plant

As no one ever saw it

probably be best explained
as normal drownings.
Just what prompted the
