In the case of the fourth query, there is room for consid- | erable amplification as was suggested recently by Representative LaGuardia of New York. How far is each candidate willing go in order to make enforcement effective, is, if such an object can be brought about? Let us see where they would lead ago Asst. Secretary Seymour Lowman of the Treasury Department, and the man who is at the head of the enforcement activities, declared “it would require an army of 30,000 Prohibition agents to handle a proposition” like actually en- forcing the Prohibition statutes in the State of New York alone. The cost of maintaining such a force, almost per cent. of the si of the United States Army, could not be le than $100,000,000 and probably would be in excess of | that figure. New York is not the only ate of which the Prohibitionists complain. There are New Jersey, Connecticut, Maryland, Illitois, Mis- souri, Wisconsin, mentjoned specifically, and there are mo other States in which enforcement aproaches effectiveness. No one knows, and tainly none the Prohibition authorities are going to make any estimates on it, how great would be the cost of a trial on such a basi Nor is lack of funds the only handicap of which the Dry workers complain. They object to the g 1 given the homes from invagion by a unless under properly issued search There are other weaknesses, such as the absence of compulsory jail sentence provision, inadequate penalties and other things.

On Feb. 1 commemorated birthday of need to say Society Lot M Morrili, The Millionaires. (New York World.) The Internal Revenue Bureau reports that the number of persons in the United States who in 19 paid tax on incomes in excess of $1,000,000 in 1926 was 228, an increase of twenty-one over the previous year. As an indication of the capi- tal possessions of these individuals the figures are uncertain. Incomes derived from speculative sources or from properties likely to be exhausted in productiveness may be 'capitalized on a 10- p nt. basis or even higher. On the other hand, a personal estate including properties in course of development may be capitalized at even more than $20,000,000 to produce $1,000,000 or more of present income. The total number of persons having capital estates of a million or more—the American mil- lionaires—must now ‘be somewhere “about 12,000. The uncertainties of reckoning from the income- tax figures are here even greater than in the higher brackets. Dwelling houges, often of con- siderable capital value, are not reckoned in in- come-tax arithmetic, though they count as assets {in the accounts of the owners, Timber and min- {ing lands not yet productive may have consid- erable capital value.
