JACKIES WILL HAVE | CHANGE T0 PRAGTICE Shipload of Targets Is Sent to Guantanamo Naval Base Norfolk, Va., March 9.—A ship load of targets, big, little and medium siz- ed and made to float or fly, has been forwarded to Guantanamo for de- struction by the Jackies of the Atlan- tic fleet during the Spring gun prac- tice. The supply ship Labanon car- ried 16,000 pieces of target material when she nosed out to sea, including the huge box-floats on her decks at which the 1l4-inch triplets of dread- naught main matteries will be turned loose. Fresh from joint maneuvers with the Pacific fleet in the Pacific, navy yvoungsters are expected by officers at the base here to show a high degree of skill with their long nosed shoot- ing irons this year. They have added zest for their work in the play time they put in with Admiral Wilson cruising on the Pacific coast of South America. The officers, mayhap, had to attend mapy formal banquets and ceremonies of reception at ports vis- ited, but the blue jackets got a chance to prowl about ashore and load up with impressions of pictur- esque tropical cities new to them. They will have a lot to tell the folks at home when the Pennsylvania points the way north for the fleet in April and Jack gets shore liberty in home ports. Every device for testing the skill of gunners is included in the target ship- ment. There are medium sized af- fairs for the 5-inch crews to hammer at in beating off imaginary destroyer attacks; things like submarine scopes to practice shooting up n fish'* on, and Kkite targets for the top- side gunners to pepper with anti-air craft barrages. There were also sup- plies for the mine planter force, with which to practice laying a few “eggs” from which great explosions and wrecked enemy craft hatch in war time; and dummy mines to be swept up by the ‘‘clean-up” flotilla. The air force of the fleet is to co- | operate in the shooting tests, spotting potting the fall of projectiles and “tipping” the big surface craft to the location of “enemy"” targets over the horizon. They will also do a lit- tle bomb dropping on their own ac- tests, ! count and a sipply of the latest type of these disturbers of the peace went down on the Lebanon for their use. | CITY WITHOUT NEWSPAPERS | Not | Printers at Binghamton, NT Y., Go On in Easter Strike to Obtain $45 and $50 Per Week—-Arbitration Is Declined.

TAX RECOMMENDATIONS Committee in Philippine Islands Wants Less Exemption — Gives Merits of That Source of Revenue. Manila, P. I, Feb. 1, (Corre- spondence of The Associated Press). —The insular finance commission, in a report just submigted to the legis- lature, recommends the reduttion of the personal exemption tax from $3,- 000 for married persons or Heads of families which the present income tax law provides, to $2,000 to $1,000. The effect of the recommendations, if embodied in a law, would be for every married person or head of a family and for every unmarried per- son earning an annual income of more than these amounts, to pay to the government a tax equivalent to three per cent of the amounts over and above the $2,000 and the $1,000 ' exemption for married and unmar- ried persons respectively. The report states that if the present income tax law is amended as recommended by the commission, an additional rev- enue of $250,000 to the government would result annually. The commission, commenting on the income tax as a source of rev- enue says: “The income tax although annoy- ing as are all new taxes and public imposts is unquestionably both emi- nently equitable in principle and as an economic measure fully in accord with the trend of political develop- ments in . all stable popular govern- ments. “The annoying and so-called in- quisitorial features necessary to the eflicient administration of the in- come tax law are found to be far more than compensated by the bet- ter administration of private enter- prises resulting from the require- ment of systematic and true records of income and outlay by individuals as well as by corporations, partner=- ships, ete.” T R e r——— e LT —— i (i | il The Brutality of the Four Sgasons Spring rains, sizzling Summer sun, fall winds, and winter snows cannot harm Bay State Liquid Paints.
