SCARES PRISONER
AFTER 22 YEARS
By IRVIN L. DAVIES.
(United Press Staff Correspondent)
SALT LAKE CITY A child would
have laughed with glee, but to Joljn
Corriettl, 56, "Dean" of the Utah
state penitentiary, hts first automo
bile ride outside the gates In 22 years
seemed almost unbearable.
Corriettl, who has served twice ae
long as any other prisoner held la
the penitentiary, urged Warden R. B.
Davis to "please take me back, please
go home," when the automobile in
which they were riding approached
the business district.
Each time another automobile
passed their car, Corriettl flinched
and crowded closer to his guards as
though fearing some gTeat monster
was threatening him. Once a street
car passed and whistled. It was
almost too much for the prisoner. He
fcuried his head In his arms end wept.
On several occasions during his
term Corriettl has asked the warden
' to "open the gates and let me go,"
but now he Is satisfied, with remain
ing within the gray walls, guards said.
Years behind those walls have not
robbed him of health and vigor, War
den Davis said. But with a world
that has -proceeded with bewildering
speed since he entered the prison on
convictiin of first-degree murder and
sentenced to life November 22, 1911,
Corriettl prefers to remain there the
rest of his life.
Despite his long years behind the
bars, Corrletti shaves dally, dresses
neatly and goes through exercises that
have kept his body straight and
strong. He reads educational books,
the warden Bald. As a result of his
personal care, the prisoner has not
been 111 since confinement.
"John has a perfect record here,
Warden Davis said. "He would have
been freed years ago had there been
anyone to care for him."
The prisoner's wife was believed
living In Italy, and a son, who has
not. been heard from since 1920, Is
somewhere in the United States.

STATE TAX LEVY
IN COMING YEAR
SALEM, Ore., Dec. 1. (AP) Ore-
gons state tax levy for 1934 to be
apportioned among the various coun
ties will be 3, 139.422 .68, an Increase
of 163.584.7fl over 1933, it was an
nounced today by the state tax commission.
W.hile some reductions have been
made in state operating expenses by
the action of the legislature and the
governor in reducing wage scales and
effecting other economies, these re
ductions have been more than offset
by restoration of the system whereby
tne state Instead of the counties Is
charged with the expense of caring
for non-violent Insane In state in
stitutions, as well as restoration of
the half-mill tax for the bonus com
mission. A reduction of the levy within the
6 per, cent limitation is shown, this
item being 1,34B,060.43 for 1934 as
against $1,565,047 58 for 1933.
Outside of the 6 per cent limita
tion the levy for 1934 is 1.790.472.35
as against 91,410.790.34 in 1933.
A reduction of 3.050,386.32 in the
state deficit of 4, 625,478.63 'existing
on December 31, 1932, Is estimated
for the blennlum. The estimate of
deficit at the close of the present
blennium Is fixed at $1,475,090.31.
SACRAMENTO,. Cal. (UP) The
only artemesia procera ever reported
found in California chose the garden
of D. B. Mackle, entomologist for the
state department of agriculture, for
Its home.
Otherwise It probably would have
been mistaken for a weed and pulled
out of the rose bed.
Mackle found it growing In his
front yard and was mystified, being
unable to explain whence it came.
The plant is almost unknown out
side of a botanical garden In Buffalo,
N. Y. Its blossoms exude an un
pleasant aroma.
SINGLE GRAPE
PROLIFIC LIFE
EXETER, Cal (UP) New produc
tion records are in prospect In the
Fresno-Tulare Red Emperor vineyard
belt.
In one vineyard, particularly, pro
ducing Its 37th yearly crop, total
production was expected to mount to
more than 950 cars,
In 1897, when the Red Emperor
market boomed and growers received
thousands of dollars a carload for
their product, George Frcvt and A. R.
Carney of Exeter planted 70 acres
of clippings obtained from a Fresno
district vlneyardist.
Since that time the vines have
produced approximately 30 cars or
fruit annually. Last season, in their
36th year, after growing to a diameter
of five or six Inches, the plants bore
their highest quality grapes. Forty
five carloads went to market from
the vineyard last season, according
to W. Todd Dofflemyer, one of the
present owners.
This year Dofflemyer and other
growers expect to obtain reasonable
profits from the harvest.
Not. they explained, the fabulous
returns which marked the Industry's
greatest year, when one carload of
Emperors brought $4260. On the other
hand, neither will a carload result
In a $460 loss to the producer, as was
recorded one year when the market
collapsed, they said.
SACRAMENTO, Cal. (UP) Cal
ifornia's mineral production in 1932
totaled $199,196,493, a decrease of
$16,767,927 from the 1931 output, ac
cording to figures compiled by Wal
ter W. Bradley, state mineralogist.
Gold production increased from
$10,814,612 In 1931 to $11,765,626 In
1932. A further Increase was ex
pected this year. Mining experts
predicted the output would total
i $16,000,000 or more.
