ALLEGED HORSE THIBF ONCE WHITE HOUSE GUARD Jamestown, N, D., Aug. 23.—A wild and woolly cowpuncher, nicknamed “Montana Pete” and “Blackie the Cowpunch,” by local auchorities, is held in the Stutsman county jail as an alleged horse thief wno stole a horse, saddle and bridle from the Ed Tho mfarm, northwest of Jamestown after draining Mr, Thomas auto of its gas supply to <handicap pursuit. According to his story he was a personal friend of the late President Harding and was appointed by him to the secret service. » He says he hailed here from Fargo, vhere he had been on a “tear,” and had thrown up his federal service star and ‘credentials to Pat Boler. His office is Jocated in Seattle, Wash., but he has the key to the gates of the White House Washington, intry for a term of years im- sble to estimate. It would also cost the people of the United States an additional sum of 750 million dol- lars in taxes annually fof railway sbetterments and improvements, and the 304 millions paid in taxes 7 the railroads in 1922 would have to be paid by the people.” Taxation experts say that taxation on the net income is the best criter- ion for taxing a going business it was pointed out by the speaker, but that net income as a measure of value is condition on the operations of the busines fur purgoses of pro- fit. Purpose of Body The speaker pointed out that the Purpose of the taxing body when levying taxes was to bring all kinds of property tangible end intangible within the scope of the levy; and taat the general property tax levied on real property which included land and the buildings thereon; and per- sonal property whica may include such things as household furniture, money, goods, bonds, ete, He pointed out that there were customs duties levied upon things| imported from foreign countries; ex- cises or internal revenue taxes levied upon domestic manufacturers; the income tax levied upon the clear or net annual income of a person. The fact that there were private corporation taxes, inheritance taxes, and numerous other methods of ob- -taining money was emphasized..

Its general condition is the touchstone Chicago, Aug. 22—The meteorolo-! gical conditions of the country at) night and the elaborate precautions’ taken by the government to guard, against the hazards of night airplane | flying all will favor the success of | night air mail service. Air conditions at night, it is point- ed out, are more favotable to flying than during the day. The night at- mosphere does away with the “bumps” in the gir which are the- cause of lamentations of day avia- tors. These “bumps” result from the sun’s rays coming in contact with the moistened atmosphere rising from wooded lands, lakes, rivers, and green vegetation, which forces up- ward a strong air current. As these | currents meet the airplane, the plane | has a tendency to rise and when the! aviator flies out of the current the machine immediately drops. Airplane motors, as g rule, run bet- ter at night than by day because*of the increase of oxygen and moisture in the air, according to aviation of-! ficjals. They expressed the belief, that this would add to the success| and efficiency of the government's! night mail service. Furthermore, large beacon lights| have been installed every 12 1-2 mites | between Chicago and Omaha. These! will be, kept going continuously; throughout the night and will throw | a swirling flood of light into the air} to guide the-aviator over his route.| | | In addition, lights will flood the landing fields and indicate to the aviator the direction the blowing. To care fay the hazards of forced landings, the airplanes in night ser- viee will be equipped with wing tip lights controlled from the pilot's seat. Parachute landing flares, also controlled automatically, will be car- ried by the aviator.
