Distinct possibility of declaring
North Capitol and South Commer

through streets, all traffic coming
to a stop before crossing, was re
vealed yesterday when Gene
Grabenhorst, councilman, rose- to
speak, on the proposed support of
the "through-street" movement,
being discussed at the weekly
meeting of Lions club.
"Such an ordinance is now be
ing drafted and will soon be presented-
to the city council," said
Mr. Grabenhorst.
me project came up lor con
sideration by the service club
when E. L. Gray asked that the
organization go on record as ad
vocating the naming of through
streets. Just what portions of
State "street will be included was
not stated.
The through traffic plan, ac
cording to its proponents, has
been proven a success wherever It
, has been tried. The city of Port
land adopted it a few months ago
and. has met with unqualified
success both as to results obtained
and as to ease of enforcement. At
the intersection of each through
street, signs were erected on the
side : streets commanding ap-
proaching machines to come to a
fall stop before entering the in
tersecting sidewalk line. Marks
painted on the streets on a line
with the sidewalks show" motor'
Ists where they must stop their

Besides cutting down accidents
the through plan also speeds up 1
traffic to ; a large extent, advo-1
cates of the system declare.
All automobiles on main traveled
thoroughfares have the right of
way and do not need to slacken
speed when reaching an intersec
tion. With this system in effect
a higher rate of speed Is possible,
with a higher degree of, safety
than is practical under the pre
sent traffic code.
Cars on cross streets, although
being obliged to come to a full
flop at the intersections, really

WHITE PLAINS, N. Y., Nov. 20.
(By Associated Press.) Sud
den adjournment today of the
Rhinelander annulment suit until
Monday added another fold to the
mantle of dark mystery which has
gathered about the entire case.
Rumors regarding a settlement
of the suit were innumerable,
ranging from reports that young

settle with Alice Beatrice Jones.

at a price ranging from ,58,000
to (300,0001 to the prediction the
suit would be dropped and the
status quo maintained-.
Isaac N. Mills, venerable coun

dant of the Huguenots, would say
only this:
'The case has not been with

this, reports of a settlement would
not down.

young Rhinelander to his bride

ceedings of the last two days
These letters are admitted to be of
a sensational character. Their
contents are known only to the
principals in the case only the
vaguest hints hav been thrown
out as to what they reveal. It Is
conceded that young Rhinelander
is not eager to have them made
I public.
So startling is their nature that
Mills asked for the adjournment
until Monday so he . might have

of his client; He did not know the

TAX ON WEALTH RAPPED

suit of "Soaking the Rich";
Results in Russia Are
Compared
Re-
JEFFERSON CITY. Mo.. Nov.
20. (By Associated Press.) The
theory of the republican party in
tax reduction, Chairman Wood of
the republican national congres
sional committee, declared in an
address here tonight, 13 that each
citizen, regardless of his wealth,
should be relieved of some of the
burden.
"Soakine- the rich has heen a
favorite pastime of political charl
atans since the dawn of history,"
Representative Woods added. "The
only tangible thing of this policy
has been to hurt the poor."
He pointed to the French revo
lution and Russian bolshevism as
examples of the result of such a
policy. Declaring that during the
French revolution taxes were lev
ied "to soak the rich," he said the
result was that the wealthy left
the country and assisted in the
upbuilding of other nations, in
eluding the United States. The re
suit of attempting to "soak the
rich" in Russia, he added, has
been the Impoverishment of the
peasantry.
"This is the logical and inevi
table result of the fiscal policies
which find advocacy in this coun
try in the persons of such demo
crats as Senator Reed and Repre
sentative Oldfield," he said.
"The republican party has held
that heavy taxes upon the man
of wealth and upon corporations
strangles business, act as a dead
weight to commerce nd slow
down the wheels of indnstryrart
of which reacts directly to the in
jury of the wage earner, the ag
ricultural producer and the small
business man-
"Furthermore, it has been
proved beyond a doubt that the
heavier the tax levied on wealth,
the more wealth endeavors to es
cape taxes in tax-exempt securi
ties. A3 a result of high sur
taxes men of wealth have been in
vesting in tax exempt securities to
the amount of over $1,000,000,000
a year until today there is out
standing over $20,000,000,000 In

BRITISH QUEEN MOTHER
DIES; EMPIRE SORROWS
FAERY QUEEN" OF ENGLAND
DEES FOLLOWING STROKE
End Comes Almost on Eve of 8lst
Birthday; Villagers La
ment Death
SANDRINGHAM. England, Nov.
2 0 . (By . . Associated Press. )
England's "fairy queen" is dead,
stricken with heart disease yes
terday morning, almost on the eve
of her 81st birthday Queen mother
Alexandra passed away at 5:25
o'clock this afternoon with her
son, King George V, Queen Mary
and sorrowing members of the
royal family at her bedside.
Thus died the radiantly beauti
ful Danish princess who captivat
ed England sixty-two years ago
when she came to be the bride of
the then Prince of Wales, and who
held the empire's love and sever
ence through three generations.
There was a poignant note of
tragedy in the final drama of
Queen Alexandra's long life, for
her favorite grandchild, the Prince
of Wales was not among those at
her deathbed. His special train,
feeling its way through th, fog,
arrived at Sandringham a' few
minutes after the end came. The
heir to the throne never saw his
grandmother alive after the visit
be made to greet her Just after his
return from his African and South
American tour. The grief Btrick
en prince, accompanied by his
brother, the Duke of York went
from the little station at Sandring
ham, where the station master
broke the news to him. to the
royal house of mourning, Sand
ringham House, which a heavy
pall of fog had wrapped in ' a
melancholy shroud.
Tonight the villagers or Sand
ringham and its adjoining ham
lets and the country folk of the
royal estates are lamenting the
death of the womanly queen who
endeared herself to her subjects in
her adopted country in a measure
unprecendented in English history.
Once she was a poor little prin
cess, as princesses go, but she
loved the fairy stories of her na
tive Denmark and her life was
much like one of them. She grew
to be a most beautiful young girl
and was romantically wooed and
wed by a prince from England.
And in the fullness of time "the
sea king's daughter from over the
sea," as Tennyson said of her, sat
on the throne beside her king.
