TAX TRIAL RULING AGAINST ILLINOISAN {Murdock, Who Refused Tes- timony on $24,000 Paid Out, to Face Court. x | By the Associated Press. | _The Supreme Court said today that BROMO QUININE Is the World’s Standard Remedy *COLDS Your druggist will tell you that Bromo Quinine acts directly on the cause—driv- ing the infection from the system. It is the safe, sensible, thorough way to get rid of a cold. BRoOMmoO QUININE ik L SIGNATURE Harry Murdock, living near East St. Louis, Ill, must stand trial on charges of violating income tax laws by refusing to tell to whom he paid money deduct- ed from his 1927 and 1928 income. Murdock, in refusing to tell where approximately $24,000 he deducted in making out his 'tax returns. went, claimed he would make himself likely to prosecution if he gave the informa- tion. After a lower Federal court decided against it, the Government appealed directly to the Supreme Court. ‘The Government took the position the information wanted could not in- criminate him under Federal laws and said he must give it. Upon his continued refusal he was indicted under the Federal revenue acts of 1927 and 1928. During his trial in the Federal Dis- trict Court for Southern Illinois, Mur- dock said some of the $24,000 had been paid out in connection with his slot- machine business, and that he ‘“be- lieved” the machines were used in gambling. ‘This hinted that some of the money might have been paid for protection to public officials and others. This angle made the case bulk large as a result of legal assaults that Federal officials have made on gang activities through | tax laws. —_— HOOVER GETS LOAD OF MAINE POTATOES |Team of Oxen Haul 40 Bushels Given by Maine Governor to White House. A team of oxen pulling a load of 40 bushels of Maine potatoes pulled into the White House grounds at noon today. The “spuds” were a gift from Gov. ‘William Tudor Gardiner of Maine and a portion of them doubtlessly will grace the White House table on Thanksgiving day. The presentation was made by Frank P. Washburn, Maine commis- sioner of agriculture. President Hoover was highly pleased. He went over and patted the two stal- wart oxen on the head. “Thank you very much,” he said to Mr. Washburn and the young driver, Lemville Hawks of Cumberland Center. “We will now have enough potatoes in th}:lwmce House to last us a long while.” Young Hawks, although still in his teens, is a veteran teamster.

Formaiilies Dropped. Formalities were dropped as soon as the party reached the Garrett estate. In the words of the distinguished guest, it was “no business—that is over.” A few friends were admitted, but for the greater Plrt of the time Grandi lounged in the library of the estate or walked in_the gardens. Yesterday the visitors attended serv- ices at the Church of St. Philip and St. James. When ghe time for the collection arrived the foreign minister found himself without a coin in his pocket. He whispered to Commendatcre Leonardo Vitettl, who has been at his side during the entire visit to America, and the situation was saved. Grandi’s presence in the church soon was known to all because the minis- ter, accustomed t» the churches of Italy, many of which have neither pews nor chairs, remained standing when the congregation w3s seated.
