MONEY 1S FLOODING GOVERNMENT'S TILL Income Tax Collections, Due To- day, Expected to Total $500,000,000 Washington, June 16—(7)—With more than one and a half billion dol- lars passing through the United States treasury teday the second pay- ment of taxes on 1929 incomes was pouring into the government coffers to swell such collections to unprece- dented totals. ‘Treasury experts expected today’s collections toamount to$500,000,000 or more. At the same time the govern- ment was paying off $40,000,000 from the sale of such securities and paying about $90,000,000 interest on the pub- lic debt. On June 12, the last day shown in the treasury’s daily statement the government had collected for the fis- cal year which started July 1 a total of $3,457,920,019 and had spent in the same time $3,698,720,649. Though this left a deficit treasury officials expected President Hoover's first full fiscal year in office to end with a comfortable surplus. Of the total receipts for the year $1,919,000,251 were received as tax on incomes of 1929, despite the fact of the Wall street collapse last fall and the one-per-cent tax reduction. The tax reduction alone meant about $800,000,000 less income for the gov- ernment. Nevertheless, indications were the treasury estimates of a total return of $2,480,000,000 from income taxes in the fiscal year would be borne out. 4 ‘The total income for the year to June 12 was $105,000,000 more than received in the same period of last year while the expenditures were $177,000,000 greater, due in part to increasing government activities and the operation of the federal farm board. General expenditures of the gov- ernment amounted to $2,078,445,165, about $90,000,000 more than for the same period last year, while the pos- tal deficiency this year totals $85,- 074,870 to date as compared to $70,- 020,900 in the same period last year. ‘The total of ordinary expenditures of the government for the year to last Thursday was $3,186,141.745, as com- pared to $3,000,496,970 for the same time @ year ago. With at. least $500,000,000 in income tax expected by the treasury before the end of the fiscal year on June 30, indications were that the government would have a total income during the year of a little more than $4,000,000,- 000 and end the year with a surplus of $100,000,000 or more. 100 Reported Dead In Chinese Blast Dakota Agricultural college, told a graduating class of 201 students at commencement exercises here today. | W‘ PreSentation of diplomas and con- ferring of degrees concluded the com- mencement activities. Dr. L. D. Coffman, president of the University of Minesota, gave the baccalaureate address Sunday and the commence- ment concert was held Sunday night. Dr. Shepperd contrasted the results of science and of superstition dur- ing the history of the world as great forces in community building, begin- ning with the first brick manufac- tured 6,000 years ago. “It is your good fortune to enter upon life’s activities at a most pro- pitious time,” Dr. Shepperd told the graduates. “Your heritage of ac- cumulated knowledge and of facilities is greater than that which has come to any generation on all the earth. The discoveries, apparatus, methods and facilities of the students of all time lie at your feet, but in spite of that I assure you there. are still mighty in relation to human society and that there is no warrant for your joining Alexander the Great by weep- ing lest there be no more worlds to conquer.” : “Unless men go out in the world with actuated ideals of truth, char- “What does society have a right to expect of college graduates?” Dr. Coff- man said: “Public confidence or lack of public confidence in public edu- cation rests upon the opinions which generation has 30 years after grad- uation as to the value of education.

Hi breadth of experience as a magician and his own attractive personality make him one of the most capable and pleasing entertainers the magic world has ever produced. 35 Iowans Held on Stock Fraud Charges Fairfield, Ia., June 16.—(#)—Thirty- five men from five southeastern Iowa counties were summoned today to an- | of gang d ‘ation and corruption swer charges of conspiracy in connec- tion with the sale of cattle represent- ed as good grade feeding stock but, according to affidavits of the pur-/ chasers, culled animals from south- west range herds and the Kansas City stockyards.

CHICAGO:POLICE HEAD QUITS POST Russell Resigns Under Fire Cre- ated by Murder of Tri- bune Reporter Chicago, June 16.—(#),-William F. Russell announced his resignation to- day as commissioner of police. Commissioner Russell’s retirement carries with it the demotion of Jonn Stege, chief of the detective bureau, whom he assigned today to captaincy of the Irving Park police district. John H. Alcock, first deputy com- missioner, was expected to take charge of the department pending appointment of a new commissioner. Faced by severe public criticism of his conduct of the de it and apparent failure of the police to cope with the gang rule of Chicago, the commissioner said he had @ statement offering his resignation to the mayor. Russell’s retirement came as no surprise to the city despite Russell's frequent assertions that he would never quit under fire. Whether his action came upon demand of Mayor William Hale Thompson was not known, for the mayor has maintained silence through the week of public is | and. press attacks that followed the killing last Monday of a Tribune reporter, Alfred Lingle. Commissioner Russell was to ap- pear before the city council police committee this afternoon to report the results of the seven day round-up of hoodlums, begun 24 hours after Lingle’s death. Alderman Arthur F. Albert had announced he would de- mand. a 60-day furlough for both Russell and Stege to permit some other commanders to clean the city within the department. Russell said he would retain his place in the police department with his civil service rank as captain. In a statement to newspapermen, the er admitted he was no longer able to function in his present capacity and would step out rather than embarrass any investigation of his department or of the acute crime situation. ‘Imputing part of the blame for the crisis to lack of an adequate police force’and indirectly to straitened mu- nicipal finances, he asserted that gen- eral crime conditions in Chicago.were better than in other American cities.
