Sues for Taxes New York, Jan. 18 (P—Charlie Chaplin, suffering from a nervous breakdown, is said by his physician to be so weak he can hardly stand. Dr. Gustav J. E. Tleck, the attend- ing nerve spect last night re- ported his condition as “not o good.” Dr. Tieck sald Chaplin has had no solid food for the last two days, his diet consisting of thin soups and broth, The comedian who remains at the home of his attorney, Nathan Burk- an, suffered a spell of depression last night similar to the one that sent him to bed on Sunday. Publicity attendant to his wife's divorce suit is responsible for Chap- lin's condition, says Dr. Tieck. Ar- thur Kelly, of United Artists, and Chaplin's general manager in the ast, said that the comedian's name must be cleared. ‘In court or out of court,” said Kelly, “Chaplin must be cleared of | the charges brought against him by Mrs. Chaplin.” Los Angeles, Jan. 18 (UP)—Al-| though attorneys for his young wife| are asking for millions, and the gov- ernment wants $1,000,000 more, Charlte Chaplin’s visible wealth| amounts only to $17,700, receivers | for his property sald today.

Then it was learned the federal govern- ment had filed six suits against Chaplin to collect $1,073,000 alleged to be due on incorrect income tax returns filed by the actor. At the same time the California supreme court in San Francisco denied Chap- lin’s petition for lifting of the re- ceivership granted by the Los An- geles superior court.

May “Blow Lid 01" in Action [ for Back Taxes Detroit, Jan. 18 (UP)—The Ford stock tax sult :oday was at a point where introduction of evidence dis- |closing the identity of an unknown |“Mr. X" would conceivably “blow |the 1id oft.” “Mr. X,” by admission of opposing counsel, wrote a now famous mem- lorandum in 192% attacking the valu- ation of $9,489.34 per share placed on the stock by the internal revenue bhreau prior to the $105,000,000 |stock sale in 1919. That memorandum, lkewise by |admission of counsel, was transmit- ted to the bureau of internal rev- |enue by “a congressman” in 1922, |with a letter which read: | " “Look this over carefully and if |vou deem it worthy of consideration, | put someone to work on it. I shall b glad it you will do this.” h §, 1923, a second mem- [orandum was filed with the sccre- tary of the treasury by M. W. Thompson, likewise attacking the |original government valuation of the |stock - and referring _specifically to |the case of Senator James Couzens. |one of the litigants in the present appeal. The identity of the “congressman” who transmitted the “Mr. X" mem- lorandum has not been disclosed. {While counsel for the stockholders have hinted they believe 1t was prompted by “cnmity for Henry Ford,” the exact motive behind the memorandum likewise is a secret. Counsel for the government admit- ted the belief it was not prompted by hope of financial gain. | . . | Auto Painting || Expert Work Tow Prices Spraying or Varnishing FRANKLIN SQ.

Rackham, first of the stockholders called to the stand, told of his “love” for Henry Ford, said he would ..ot have sold his stock to apyone but Ford, and asserted he relied “implicitly” on the go ernment’s now repudiated valuation. “When I was asked to sell,” Rack- ham said, “I had no ambition to be- come a very rich man. Mr. Ford and I had been neighbors, and I wanted only a fair price between neighbors. I thought if Mr. Ford wanted the stock he was entitled to have it.” Rackham originally invested $5,- 000 in the company of the man whose early experir ents with motors he sald, “woke me up nights with his sputtering.” From the $5,000 beginning, Rackham eventually came into a fortune of $12,600,000.
