Husband To Pay
Tax To Free His
Wife From Jail
TOLLAND, Mass., July 15 UF
Homer Fargo isn't going to let
his wife stay in jail another day
for alleged non-payment of an auto
mobile excise tax.
She's been there since last Fri
day on the town of Sandisfield's
claim that she didnt pay the tax.
-She contends she paid it to her
home town Tolland.
Tax Commissioner Henry F.
Long ruled that it should have
been paid to Sandisfield as the car
was garaged there.
Fargo, 65, said he Is going to
pay $57 today to gain her free
dom even though she.s willing to
atay in jail a year If she has to.
"I told her 'no, sir' you are not
going to stay in jail a year," Fargo
said. "I told her it Mr. Long is
dictator enough to keep her in
jail with out a hearing, what's the
use of her staying.
"I told my wife she's sacrificed
enough for the state and if the
people of Massachusetts won't take
action to help, I'm not going to let
her make any more sacrifices.'
- A court battle, he said, would
be too costly.
Long said Mrs. Fargo was "try
ing to upset the whole machinery
of the tax laws' and that she had
been engaged "in a running fight
for some time with the Sandisfield
tax collector."
He explained that motor vehic
les are subject to taxation in the
community in which they are gar
aged. Ammunition Barges At

war." Echols was reminded sold

Sixth Person
Ready To Brave
Niagara Falls
NIAGARA FALLS, Ont., July IS
(JP) Maj. Lloyd Hill made his
last preparations today for a
plunge over Niagara Falls in an
11-foot-long steel barrel.
The 32-year-old Candian veteran
of War World II plant to shove
off from an undisclosed ' p o i n t
above the Canadian, or Horseshoe
falls shortly after 1 p.m. (EST),
tomorrow.
If he does, he will be going
against the advice of Jean Lussier
of Niagara Falls, N. Y., who made
the trip in 1928 in a huge rubber
ball.
Lussier took one look at Hill's
barrel and remarked:
"I wouldn't try it in that for
$50,000."
"There won't be anything to
it." the riverman declared. "I've
already made several appoint
ments for next week and, after
all, I'll have to keep them."
Five persons have taken the
plunge over the Horseshoe falls.
Two besides Lussier lived to tell

Knudtson's Ad
Gains National
Recognition
National 'recognition of an ad
vertisement of Knudtson's jewel
ers of Roseburg is given in the
July issue of Guilds, published by
the American Gem society, Los
Angeles, Calif.
The publication calls attention to
an advertisement of Knudtson's in
which a "handsome engraving of
a prehistoric scene is the illus
tration for one of a series of un
usual advertisements" which ap
peared in the News-Review.
"Alvin M. Knudtson, R. J.. C. G..
his gifted son, Alan, who engraves
the plates for the ads and writes
the copy, and his son, Jim, who is
in charge of the watch-repairing
department, are to be congratulat
ed for having designed a dynam
ic and distinctive style of ad which
is practically a trademark," states
the Guilds' article.
The ad referred to was illus
trated by the engraving of a pre
historic scene, which showed the
earth erupting in violence and
enormous animals long extinct.
The headlines pointed out that dia
monds are more than ten million
years old. The copy elaborates on
the theme by explaining that on
the day your diamond was formed
the earth was still in its early
stages of development: the Grand
canyon was little more than a creek
and many of todays mountains
were barely a bulge on the surface
of the ground. This leads to the
discussion of the durability of this
gem, and of the enduring love for
which it is the symbol, the article
points out.
All member organizations of the
American Gem society must ub
mit copies of all their advertising
for study and criticism. '
