plan, he would pay according
to the volume of business done,
she explained.
Mrs. Martin branded as false,
charges that the sales tax would
be expensive in administering
and declared that administration
of the property tax was tar more
costly. The sales tax would cost
less than one per cent of the
revenue received, she said.
Present estimates of Income
from the sales tax provisions,
reported by Mrs. Martin, are:
Two per cent of retail sales,
14,000.000.
Two per cent of gross charges
for services, $700,000.
Two per cent of public utilities
revenues, 3800,000.

Circuit Judge Fred W. Wilson or
dered his attorney to control the
situation. Garland, apparently tak
en aback at Moore's shouted re
mark, only gazed at the defend
ant, then cut short his question

to his chair and sobbed into his
handkerchief, as the girl also
wept.
Garland, basing the defense of
his client on a plea ot insanity,
called but three witnesses after
the state had rested today; Moore,
Miss Stoops and Deputy Sheriff
Christofferson.
In reply to a question from
Garland as to whether he killed
O'Connor, Moore replied: "Yes, I
guess I did. I don't know where
it was that I killed him. I do not
know how far it was from where
the body was found. I took the
travelers checks and the car. I
had no intention of shooting him

Lite Insurance
Value is Upheld
As Investment
The value of life Insurance as
an Investment, as well as a pro
tection to a man's dependents,
was upheld by Miss Lillian Beech
er, local agent, in her address at
the Fraternis club meeting at The
Spa. last night. She pointed to life
Insurance as having developed
from a protective measure, to a
certain means of passing on an es
tate, and now to the investment
stage. She declared that life in
surance investments afforded
safety because of the diversified
Investments backing up policies.
Life insurance investments, she
said, relieve the investor of the
worries of management, insure
his receiving interest and are li
quid at all times.
