But therq is now groat hesitatjun about paying. People say it s hard enough to pay one year's Income tax without adding arrears which they were invited not to pay, and have since spent. The suggestion has been made by a responsible financier that the pre-Truce Income tax should be wiped out. But the Irish govern- ment’s agreement with the British as- sumed certain burdens for which these arrears were a set-off, and |if the arrears are not paid additional ment and condemnation | taxation will have to be imposed to were necessary in some|meet those burdens.

Hitherto all these people have paid income tax in one lump to the British government, but now it is feared that they may have to submit to a double income tax.

Iiven Rapa—the pindot island which became famous as & ‘place where the men were fed by women {and lolled around listiessly on a stretch of coral strand under shade giving palm trees—is beginning to |show the marks of civilization, de- spite the fact that the ratie of in- | habitants continues to approximate foyr women to one man, Stgkes sald. " There are only 23 taxpayers—men between the ages’ of 21 and 8$—on the island. The rest of the 236 in- habitants are women, young boys and old men. “All of the work except the fish- ing is done by the women, who are comely, sturdy, exceedingly tall, mus- cular and hospitable,” Stokes “The women who first drew attention to Rapa through stories that the women fed the men, apparently visit- led the island during d festival, when the women fed the men ‘in fun.' The women, however, do " perform all agricultural work. “Despite the heavy ratio of women to men, ‘no man has more than one official wife.” The women are none ‘!oo willing to marry the men of, Rapa, as they become little more than Copenhagen Moth Proof Chest in Mahogany and thut DAILY the | held in| sald | HERALD, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1922, iyl gl e et o "'hhflrd-“fl"‘fl Nuptials e At South Church Chapel husbands mnd 4f they attempt to en- | joy the same privilegos as thelr hus-| oy eee §, Hibbaed ot Arch street bands they aré Mable to recelve .l .o v’ mupy Staniby, doughter of sovers besiing, er. and Mrs. M.
