Protests Income Tax
Refunds Delay

Editor. Peoples Voicel
According TO a recent announcement
by MIR. Healy of the Internal Revenue
Bureau in Helena, if and when there
were refunds due ON income tax for
Butte and Anaconda people, these would
be processed at once.
Tax checks would be mailed to those
in Butte and Anaconda who had money
coming so that it could be used by the
people who are in need there and so
that they could take care of their bills.
AS there has been a number here who
could not get plates for cars and trucks
which in some cases must be used to
carry on their every day duties it is
quite disappointment that these re-
funds were not "procesesed" by In
fernal Revenue.
l favor Civil Service, but sometimes
1 wonder if it is mot giving them too
much power in such things as this. The
Internal Revenue Service is CLUB"
on large segment of the people I am
thinking that the vast majority of the
people think that it has become mon
ster' to intimidate the people. In a case
like this it is used to withhold just re-
out of work due o the strike. also
as bad as the I.R. in not tsking action

If It weren't for cooperatives, most
farmers couldn't afford these special

These cooperatives make farming

NUMISMATIC NOTES
1879 Large Cent

To all United States large
cent collectors the 1899 cent
= is the king" Of the large
cents, and the famous Hines
specimen Is the King OF
Kings"
It seems strange that q coin
with a mintage record Of al
most a million (904,585 to be
exact) should be so scarce
and difficult to obtain. The
1895 with a mintage Of only
$4,000 is a common date, COM
pared to the 1899.
One explanation could be
that the records of the mint
were kept for the fiscal year,
July / to June 80. A tre-
mendous number Of cents,
2,822,175, were struck in 1900.
It is safe to assume that part
or most Of the "l799" cents
were 1800s struck between
January, 1900, and July /,
1900 and included in the mint
records for 1899.
On October 81, 1853, the
Dr.. James o. Sloss collection
of large cents was sold at the
Park-Sheraton Hotel in New
q York City. The $50 cents in
the collection realized a total
of $69,318.35. There were
five 1899 cents in the sale,
including three 1899 over SO.
Prices ranged from $3.50 to
$500.
Then the Hines specimen
was offered. There were bids
of $4,000. $4,000 and $4,000,

By A. ]. WEDDERBURN
Contributing Writer

Last week we began a dis
cussion on home movie pro-
lection. We found that
many a fine film has been
spoiled by poor projection
techniques. We made some
recommendations: That your
protector should always be
kept in tiptop condition; that
you know how to skillfully
operate the machine without
embarrassing delays; that
you prepare for your show
well before the audience ar
rives. Today we will con-
clude our suggestions.
The smaller film area of
S-mm. projectors require a
brighter light than the 10
INNS. for comparative screen
image quality. And the
stronger the light source the
larger the image you will be
able to project while main
tanning good image quality.
On the other hand, too strong
a light will wash out the
highlights and give the false
impression of an overexposed
film. A beaded screen is
probably the best for all
around projection but a
matte screen or the other
new types will be satisfactory
in confined areas where the
protector Is not too far from
the screen.

sometimes caused by accumu-

you will have to decide

want one of the sound pro-

if you are interested only in

Before closing the subject
we should like to add that it
is important to know when to

the screen antics of your off,

same does not hold true with

King May
OrMoy Not
Say Yes

HENDERSON, KY, Aug. Is
(AP)-The King of Belgium
isn't saying whether he will
be best man at a nobleman
friends wedding in Hender-
son.
And King Baudouin'S aide,
reached by long distance
phone at Brussels, answered
only: "Kentucky?"
Meantime the heroine,
Miss Lutgarde de Beusscher,
26, unused: Possibly he
come. More possibly he
won't"
Miss de Beusscher is en-
gagged to Count Jacques de
Ormes, 80, a close friend of
the King. The wedding was
planned two years ago but
was called off after the count
was badly injured in an auto
accident.
Love lived on, even after
Miss de Beusscher came to
this Ohio River city of H.
600 population to live with
her sister, Mrs. Edward R.
Brown.
Through letters and phone
calls. the count convinced
Miss de Beusscher to marry
him and return to Brussels
to live. But he agreed to
marry her in Kentucky.
There the matter stands.
The count will arrive early
next month, and the wedding
will follow within 8 to IS
days.
The King may be best man.
Or maybe he won't.
