Again at Beriin he was in- terviewed, but this time he did not know it was anyone who had ever seen him before. He said nothing about a loss there and inquired sev- eral times the mileage rates to Chi- cagn. While at Berlin he smoked cigarettes incessantly. He referred to Rev. Dr. David A Pitts for reference, but not until after he had left for his home in Nor- ch and could not be located He was very nervous when seen at the Jerlin station and was heard to re- mark to the ticket clerk when he asked for his Hartford ticket, “I don't how T get there, just so I get there."” preceded orchestra over Fox's L. | { | | i | DE- | STROY flies everywhere!

The story of the loss he stuck to, * but varied it somewhat in telling of the time of the loss, it is stated Some people were informed, it is sdid, that he lost the pocket hook Wednesday, between the church and the New Britain club, where the church officials took care of him, while at the club he is alleged to have stated that he lost the money in Hartford. The people at the local church ac- cepted the story of the loss and did | what they could to help him. They furnished him meals, and various members, struck by his story of mis- | fortune, contributed to his financial condition. One man gave him a $5 bill, another gave him one dollar and there were quite a number of con- tributions of various denominations. Although he stayed overnight at the expense of the church, at the New Britain club, the man carried no baggage, but left a soiled collar and some cards and envelopes of the Bos- ton church in the room. So much attention was attracted by the man that volunteers carefully checked his movements until he left| the city last night. At the New Brit- ain club, where he went immediately ter supper he is said to have de- clared he intended to get a church in this locality and proposed to join the club.

M. Wright of the Near East rellef. The commlittee's purpose was ‘‘to examine into and investigate condi- tions in the supposedly devastated ter- ritory to ascertain the number of refugees and Greek war prisoners homeless and others neading relief or medical care, and the amount of de- struction.” The committee's report prej@red by Dr. Wright is featured by the state- ment that the Greek prisoners who were seen working on the roads and elsewhere were generally treated re- spectably by their guards and did not appear starved or under nourished. Their uniforms were in tatters and their morale seemed low." Dr. Wright found the térritory widely devastated but in most sec- tions sufficient buildings remained to house the present population. “Despite the fact that there were no acute suffering or gruesome sights to be seen,” he says, “there would be a need for medical supplies and. a great need for food."” DON'F LIKE REPORTERS Lord Mountbatten Objects to Being Quoted as Talking Like Tondon Dude, Los Angeles, Oct. 19..—Lord Mount- { batten, here today with Lady Mount- likes America and except the New and Chicago reporters who quoted him as saying “my word" “'pon' my soul” and ‘wot, wot, wot."” He told Los Angeles reporters: “Quote me as saying anything at all but don’'t make me talk like a I.on- don dude.” When asked what he thought about the movies after he had been shown about by Charlie Chaplin, his fellow countryman, his lordship did not say “toppin’ " “jolly well,” ‘*clevah,” rippin.”” “bah Jove,” or anything like that.

HOYT’S REVUE “Spice of New York” TAX FRAUDS AIDED BY “INSIDE DOPE Representative Frear Makes Sey- ¢ral Strong Hints Washington, Oect. 19.—That there has been a systematic “leak” from within the vell of secrecy thrown hy congress about income tax records, and that inside information has been made available for tax dodgers, was strongly hinted at today by Represen- tative Frear (Rep, Wis.) Ways and Means committee member. This was suppiementary to his charges yesterday that hundreds of millions of dollars are escaping taxa- tion and to his Inquiry addressed to Secretary Mellon as to whether Mr. Mellon has invoked section 220 of the Revenue Act of 1921, aimed to catch dodgers of income surtaxes. Other Complaiuts. “The question of taxation which runs into losses to the treasury reaching hundreds of milllons of dol- lars from the various methods of tax escape,” Frear said, “are not the only serfous complaints that are lodged against the present system of secrecy “It is claimed that men who have heen employed by the treasury de- partment in the internal revenue branch of the department, after ac- quiring knowledge of treasury rec- ords and treasury methods, have gone into private service and that their knowledge of the conditions of the treasury has been that of their employers." Information Developing. Mr. Frear said information fs de- veloping daily to indicate that Con- gress should take steps to reach funds that are escaping taxation. “In The World of today,” he con- tinued, “appears the statement that Cacuum Oil is to have a 300 per cent stock dividend distribution. “It is a striking fact, notwithstand- ing the Supreme-Court unscrambling of Standard Oil eggs a few years ago, that all the present subsidiary com- panies are declaring stock dividends and at the same time reducing all their shares to a par:value of $25, in- dicating that the action of the Su- preme Court in dissolving the com- pany was a matter of form rather than of fact, and the company still cxists substantially as it did prior to the decision. “Will Secretary Mellon, under rec- tion 220, make the order he is author- ized to make in order to protect §ie Federal Treasury in its collection of income taxes Mr. Frear said section. 220 is specific that anl holding company where gains and profits are permitted to accumulate heyond the reasonable needs of busine “prima facie is evidence of a purpose of escaping sur- tax." “It is contended by members of the House,” Mr. Frear continued, “if this provision is made effective it will mean that enormous accumulations of surplus set apart by the Standard Oil, steel, munitions, sugar and other compantes can be reached.” Strong influences, he "added, vented enactment of a provision to tax the undistributed profits, of cor- vorations at the time the profits were ket aside as surplus, Two Local Dentists to Attend Columbia Clinics C.
