t'onal from tho corporations, th in
crease through this source being de
signed as a partial offset against the
less of $450,000,000 to 'result from th
repeal of the excess profits tax.
Some estimates were that from
$150,000,000 to $200,000,000 had been
cut from the bill, which, as It passed
the senate, was designed to yield ap
proximately $3,300,000,000, or slightly
less than the total treasury officials

AGAINST E. E. PETEKSOX.
Defendant Is Accused of Illegally
Taking Over Plaintiff's Inter
est In Business House.
Ebba Sunden Saturday filed suit
In tha circuit court against Eric E.
Peterson, charging that he bad sought
to defraud her in a co-partnership
known as the Alaska Norway Import
ing company by asking her to turn

ment at the time of her marriage and

putting in $1000 and Peterson invest-
no- $3000, both parties working and
drawing wages, the profits to be di

held, was not in any way to affect
the partnership or terminate it.

pany, but Peterson refused, after no
tifying her that she neea not return

AUSTRALIA TO ADVERTISE
Building of Yacht to Race for
America Cup Advocated.
SYDNEY. New South Wales. A
vacht should be built at Auckland to
compete for the America cup on be
half of Australia and iew eaiana,
it was suggested today by T. M. Wll
ford. member of the New Zealand
parliament, upon his return here from
the United States. He expressed be
lief that such a venture Is practicable
and would advertise both countries In
he United States, where- he said ne
had found an "appalling ' ignorance''
regarding Australasia.
I believe that such a yacht as
would be required to sail from New
Zealand to America could be built in
Auckland, If the money could be
found," he said. "There is no doubt
that it would be a sound, commercial
proposition, for every New Zealand
firm would recogntx that a challenge
would afford publicity of the most
effective sort. New Zealand could
easily find a crew for such a boat and
what a sensation would be caused if
the hero of Jutland, Lord Jelllco,
could be persuaded to take command.
The yacht could be sailed through
he Panama canal and then hug the
Atlantic shore to New York.".

Wrenwick had a perfect right to

"To hell with you," Kowett re

Wrenwick, according to Dan

attempted to fir into Kowett'a stom

Kowett wrenched the gun away. He
then slammed W renwick s partner on

Kowett grappled with Wrenwick.
Holdup Used mm Seat.
Wrenwick Is rather a small person.
who may be a good, conscientious

may have gone to the dogs. Kowett,
a tiny little tot of 180 pounds and $

Wrenwick, firmly retaining his seat
while O'Mara called police headquar

The holdup actually blushed as h

The grins he received from the pollc
were hard to bear and the prospect of

be laughing- at him.
Wrenwick Trine Rattled.
Wrenwick was a little rattled whan
he first reached headquarters. As
O'Mara and Kowett detailed the story
to Lieutenant Thatcher, O'Mara said
that he observed Wrenwick attempt
to pull the trigger twice.

Kowett, who Is 21 years old and a

BIRDS MUST BE MARKED
State Game Warden Points to Law
Requirements for Shipping.
The bureau of biological survey, de
partment of agriculture, has Issued a
statement which calls attention to the
fact that under federal law all pack
ages in which wild ducks, geese and
other migratory birds are transported
must nave the name of the shipper
and of the' consignee ruid an accurate
statement of the numbers and kinds
of birds contained therein, clearly
marked on the outside.
Captain A. E. Burghduff. state game
warden, said his department had ex
perienced considerable trouble over
the failure of shippers to mark gam
packages in accordance with the law.
The state law requires shipping per
mits for game, which voids the neces
sity of procuring federal permits.
Captain Burghduff stated that sports
men shipping game birds, without
proper markings are liable to prosecu
tion in the federal court and the. birds
to seizure and condemnation.

S EFFECT
STORMS ARB BELIEVED TO IN
FLl'EXCE HEALTH.
Scientist to Conduct Investigation
In Hawaiian Islands and Other
Parts of Area.
HONOLULU, T- H. The effect of
otorms and other atmosDherla dls
turbances upon the climate, the
health, minds and activities of the
peoples of the Pacific and upon agri
culture and Industry is being studied
here by Dr. Stephen S. Visher. asso
elate professor of geography at the
university or Indiana, who received
th Bishop Museum fellowship from
Yale university this year.
"The effect of storms upon ships
at sea has been studied extensively,
but little thought has been given to
the Influence of storms upon the
health, minds and activities of peo
pie In th storm-swept regions." he
said In explanlng his work. "To this
subject I will devote at least a year
of study In the Pacific Islands, gath
ering together all the known data,
which, with my own observations,
will be published."
The Kona winds, the most severe
which reach Hawaii, will be observed
very closely by Dr. Visher, he said,
These winds, a mild form of hurri
cane, strike the southern part of
the. island of Oahu, known as the
Kona district, and. according to Ha
waiian tradition bring sickness upon
the inhabitants.
"The Kona wind results from a dif
ference in intensity, In low air pres
sure areas," Dr. Visher explained. "If
this wind Is strong enough to over
come the trade winds, we have a
strong southerly wind, sometimes
called 'th sick wind,' because it is
hot and depressing. These winds
travel from 60 to 100 miles an hour
IA this region, but their velocity be
comes much greater near China and
the Indies."
Dr. Visher will spend several
months in tha Fiji islands, studying
the winds there and then wiy pro
ceed to the Tongan and Samoan Is
lands, returning to Honolulu to as
semble and complete his data for
publication.
FIRE CHIEF y
HE
MORE EQUIPMENT HELD NEED
FOR PORTLAND.
International Association Goes on
Record Against Shingle Roofs
on Homes; Danger Cited.
Portland fire equipment is workably
good, but more general apparatus and
some special equipment are necessary
for efficiency and economy, according
to John E. Young, chief of tha Port
land fire bureau, who returned Satur
day from the annual meeting of the
International Association of Fir
Chiefs, held in Atlanta, Ga. He
studied equipment in the principal
cities of the United States.
For more than one week Chief
Young was an active member of en
gine company No. 31 In New York city,
sleeping in the house and "rolling out"
on every alarm. He learned how New
York fights all types of. fires.
In various cities Chief Young
studied fire hazards and methods to
combat them. He inspected labora
tories maintained by the national
board of fire underwriters.
Chief Young attended th annual
convention of the Pacific coast fire
chiefs held In Victoria. B. C. He said
consensus of opinion at both conven
tions was that standardisation Of
equipment Is needed for economy and
efficiency.
The members of the international
association went on record against
shingle roofs on homes. The fir
fifrhters maintained that many con
flagrations were started In shingle
roofs. Copper or asbestos roofing
were given as the cheapest and safest.
Chief Young soon will make a for
mal report to City Commissioner
Blgolow, in charge of theflr bureau.

'to Cut Budget to Fit.
MANILA. P. I. Th stimated ex
penditures of the insular government
for the year 1922 exceed th estimat
ed revenues by approximately 38,000,
000, and as a result the secretary of
f.nance has returned tha budgets to
the heads of various departments
with instructions to cut the estimates
to the limit of the estimated revenues.
The estimated expenditures submit
ted to the secretary of finance total
342.000,000, w-hile the estimated rev

Pioneer Banking Difficulties
THE great distance from the financial centers of the East and the
insecurity of remittances, resulting from the hazards to which
early day mail was subjected, were serious handicaps to banking and
other enterprises in 1859.
The above printed reproduction of a statement involving a collection made for
a client in the year mentioned, is an interesting- example of the costly collection
methods and the high rate of exchange which prevailed.
Today the total charge for a similar transaction would approximate about one
dollar; a difference of twenty-four dollars and ninety-ix cents, ($24.96),
saved to the client.
Although it seems at first glance that this early day exchange charge was
exhorbitant, when compared with the rate of interest, ranging from 12 to SO
per cent annually, which the banker had to pay on deposits, it does not appear
altogether disproportionate.
Today the Collection and Exchange Departments of the Ladd & Tilton Bank
are highly important branches of this pioneer institution efficient, trustworthy,
complete, far-reaching.
