WILL ADMIT COUNTESS
(Continued from paga 1.)
Ellis Island, where the countess
Is held.
Mr. Hayes indicated that the
chief point he would endeavor to
make in his fight would be that
admitting anj act did not consti
tute admission of a crime, it being-
necessary! to judge the act by
the laws of the country where it
occurred. j
The announced purpose of the
countess' attempt to enter this
country appeared io be near ac
complishment tonight when a
Broadway theatrical producer '
siaieu mai ne naa readied an
agreement for production of her
play "Ashes" and that sbe would
plav tie leading role if she is ad
mitted. The countess, who said
sbe came here to sell the play,
denies that her present situation
was planned for publicity purpos
es. "Would any rane woman plan
a thine like this?" she demanded.
"It's ridiculous."

be four Philadelphia millionaires
'the Wall Street of the . rum
ring." ' -
Among those definitely -involved
to date are internal revenue offi
cers, prominent professional and
business men, heads and employes
of Industrial alcohol companies,
railroad employes, automobile
transfer men,- "customers," truck
drivers, former policemen and
bootleggers already sentenced in
other cases.
Stories emanating from the dis
trict attorney's office from time to
time Indicate the following opera
tions of the "rum ring":
The conspiracy was headed by
four Philadelphia millionaires.
Associated with the millionaires
were 30 others who controlled 75
per cent of the alcohol business
in the United States, regulating
the price from coast to coast.
Fifteen . distilleries were oper
ated by the "ring," producing $1,
000.000 worth of alcohol each
week at distillery prices. j
The output was sold to whole
salers for $140,000,000 a' year and
retailed at $10 to $20 ax gallon
brought the country's alcohol bill
for liquor from this one source
to more than $500,000,000 a year.
Nine hundred thousand gallons
of alcohol were manufactured each
week, or 4 6.800,000 gallons a
year.
Initial establishment of two dis
tilleries in Pennsylvania, two In
Maryland and one in Kentucky
was followed by establishment of
subsidiaries in Various cities to
sell the product at wholesale.

ganizations were established un-

Later re-distilling plants were
established, to convert the eastern
produced denatured product Into
marketable beverage form. -j. i
. Cleveland was chosen as a re
distilling , and distribution point
because of its lake and railroad
facilities and its central location.
A re-distilling plant was operated-
in Philadelphia under the
guise of, a, perfume, factory Chlr
cago was a main distributing point
for Ulinois and Indiana, with
branches in smaller cities in those
states: . i ' ; .,
- St. Paul and Minneapolis was
the site of a ring which supplied
neighboring j cities and supervised
the distribution to the ; Pacific
coast. : - '
, Philadelphia received 150,009
gallons of alcohol a week; on a
conservative 'estimate. ,
Drums of alcohol containing
100 gallons were "watered" to
make as much as 200 to 300 gal
lons so as to increase distribution
and profits.

than $6,000,000 increase was at
tributed to modifications made In
the corporation tax.
The retroactive reduction in
the inheritance tax whereby the
increase rates made in the 1924
act would be substituted with the
lower rates in effect in the 1921
act was voted by the senate. This
vote however, was coupled with
the vote for repeal of the inheri
tance tax and the proposal was not
voted upon separately. It will
mean a refund of about $15,000,
000 in taxes this year and will re
sult altogether, it is estimated, in
a loss of $85,000,000 n tajces al
ready assessed on estates made
iib1ect to the tax in Ithe Deriod
since the 1924 art went into ef-
feet on June 2 of that year.
