McCaflerty reported that disorders of a Communistic na- ture continued Gen. Martinez, who succeeded Presi- dent Araujo, but who has not been recognized by the United States, said the authorities had the situation com pletely in hand. Several hundred | armed civilians are patrolling the cap- ital at night. Martial law has been declared throughout the country JOB SERVICE OF “Y” DOUBLED DURING 1931 Increased Demand Comes From “White Collar” Class—Tran- | sients Offer New Problem. | Activities of the free employment service of the Central Young Men's | Christian Associstion were more than doubled during 1931, according to_the annual statistical report submitted to the Board of Managers of the assocla- | ation this afternoon at the Central Y. M. C. A. Building. | The increased demand for jobs came largely from the so-called “Wwhite col- | lar" class, it was pointed out. Tran- sient unemployed provided a new prob- lem, which was met by assignment of employment specialist to advise them. ! The Y. M. C. A. interviewed 2879 men on employment problems during the year, an increase of more than 100 per cent over 1930. Most of these were men who had lost their jobs, but some wero men seeking vocational guidance and some were “drifters.” ‘ Definite requests for work were re- | celved ) men and 961 filed formal apy Many of those who falled t written applica- tion w Interviews were arranged with prospective employers for 800 men and 330 positions were fllled as a result The reports of the religious, physical, educational, boys', dormitory and serv- howed an_expanded | program for the year.

S. in 1919 December, 1919, the prince Te- ) to this country and borrowed 7,000 from Mr. Britton to pay his s Gebts, the Austrian money having | s0 depreciated as to be virtually worth- | less as security | With the money obtained from his, father-in-law, Prince Hohenlohe paid his Swiss debts and purchased a estate near Vienna, where he ince lived with his wife and two } n. It was also brought out in the opinion that from 1920 until the time of his death, Mr. Britton gave his daughter a regular allowance of 200 or $250 a month for living ex- penses, while the earnings of the prince were from $2,500 to $3,000 a year. Ttem Charged Off. Contending that the money trans- | action with his son-in-law constituted a worthless debt, Mr. Britton charged xlrgw item off his income tax returns for 21, In refusing to allow this deduction, Justice Hitz said: | “Where the taxpayer, because of personal ties between himself and the debtor, is not willing to enforce pay- ment of his debt, he is not entitled to deduct it from his income tax as worthless. And that is this case, for in 1921 the debtor, aside from his per- s assets, or whatever they may have been worth, owned the landed estate near Vienna and there is no| showing that the deht could not have been satisfied by subjecting tk to its payment But tt the residence of Mr. Britton's daughter | anc her two young children, to whom he was making a regular allowance for support “Prince Hoheniohe, testifying before the Board of Tax Appeals, said that|f§ while Mr. Britton occasionally men~ tioned the debt to him he never pressed for its payment and the prince never expected that Mr. Britton would press the matter while their financial’ and ecohomic condition remained the same. “We are of the opinion_that while the debt was of doubtful value and dif- ficuX, of collection in fact, it was not worthless in ‘law.” Peer Shines as Cook. Another distinction has come to the Duke of Atholl, one of the most pop- ular of Scottish peers, formerly high commissioner at Holyrood. He has be- come an expert cook and has given demonstrations of his skill among friends. Hitherto he has been chiefly famed as the only person in Great Britain permitted to maintain a pri- vate army. The Atholl Highlanders, his uniformed and armed retainers, have a right to fly the royal standard.| Graduate Eves Examined Hroer%!fl("thfllml Glasses Fitted DR. CLAUDE S.
