GHENEYS APPEAL INCOME TAX il Declare Groenway Farm Was Losing Venture in 1926 G E H. MANNING ( \\'nln::mnnl?lfigeumndem, B. Herald) Washington, ' D. C., Feb. 16— “Greenway Farm" in Hartford coun- 1ty was an unprofitable venture for Anne W., Louise and Robert Cheney of South Manchester in 1926 and the commissioner of internal revenue failed to consider this in estimating thelr income taxes, the sisters and brother claimed: in an appeal today 10 the board of tax appeals. “Thcome taxes tetalling $1,986 are in controversy. The members of the ealthy Connecticut family claim this amount should have been de- ducted by the commissioner from thelr 1926 income taxes. Their ap- peal to the .board asks reversal of the commissioner's decision, which, it upheld, will force them to pay the disputed amount. In their statements to the board the Cheneys explained that Green- way Farm” was operated jointly by them in 1926. It consisted of 60 acres. Practically all of this was cleared and under intensive cultl- vation. The farm had eight employes working throughout the year and 15 head of cattle, four horses and 1,000 chickens were maintained there. "'he Cheneys paid a rental of $1.- 400 for this farm in 1926 and em- ployed Burlingame, Hutchins & King, Inc, of New York city, a irm engaged in farm management, tc manage it for them. The sisters and brother stated that the gross income of the farm in 1926 amounted to $6.908.37. Op- .rating expenses Wwere $18,907.03 herefore they computed their net 188 $11,909.66, also claiming a lepreciation on buildings of $1,600. Computing their total loss on the 1arm at $13,492.66 by adding their huilding depreciation estimate to the 1et loss, each claimed one-third of this | or $4.499, Miss Anne Cheney, who reported 4 net income of $52,836.05 for 1926, declared in her statement to the board that after the most careful compllation she was convinced that her 1926 income taxes werc $539.66 too high. Her sister, Louise, stating that her net income for the same year was $53,915.55, estimated that she was taxed $546.59 too much. “The brother, Robert, declared his net income for the year was $72,- 238.14. In his estimation his income tax appeals will act on these objev- It is expected that the board of tax appeals will tions soon.

Washington, Feb, 16 UP—Presi- ! dent-Elect Herbert Hoover's first act after he has taken the oath of office, as has been the custom since the time of Washington, will be to kiss the Bible. Sometimes the Bible is opened at random, but many executives have | specified that it be opened at @ par- ticular place and avallable records throw curious sidelights on many presidential characters in that re- gard. Ulysses S. Grant kissed the Bible |at the second chapter of Isaiah, sec- ond and third verses, which say: “And it shall come to pass in the last days that the mountain of the the top of the mountains and shall be exalted above the bills and all nations shall flow unto it. “And many people shall go and say, Come unto ye and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he walk in his paths; for out of Zion shall go forth the law and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.” ARRIGAN NATIVE BULDS CHURH Establishes in Congo Most Re- mote Edifice in World Mboga, Central Africa, Feb. 16 P —Here in the African jungle a na- tive black “St. Augustine” . |established & Christian church, thought to be the most remote in the world. | He is Canon Apolo Kivebulaya, known as “Apolo of the Pigmy Forest,” and fis “dlocese” enendtq: jover 12 Christlan congregations {which he has created among the African pigmles who live along the upper reaches of the Ituri river, a tributary of the Congo. Apolo was converted to Christian.- ity by a Bcotch missionary 35 years ago. Ever since he has devoted hiz life to evangelizing the jungle pig- mies, whom ethnologists describe as among the most dangerous and treacherous of savage tribes. An English missionary, the Rev. A. B. Lloyd, who braved a difficult Jjourney into the depths of the jun- gle to sce Apclo, declares that the pigmies are maligned. Guided by Apolo, he visited a number of sct- tlements and found the pigmies a shy, friendly race of tiny folk, gentle in character. They are ®o isolated from all contact with civil- ization that they had never before seen & white man, ing missionary and his companions, according to a report made by the Rev. Lloyd and published by the church missionary soclety, had to |leave their motor caravan by which ithey traveled from the shores of Lake Albert o the outskirts of the Pigmy forest and trek 40 miles by foot deep into the heart of the for- est along A track barely wide enough for one man t> pass. “In & few hours' walk,” he says, “we had to cross no fewer than 20 streams. some of them wide and deep and with fast-flowing currents.” Apolo the report records, has |trained between 50 and €0 native teachers, men and women drawn from all parts of the forest, to help him in his work among the pigmies. One of them, a fine young womun, is the daughter of the pigmy chiof of Mboga, who in years, gone by was {Apolo's persecutor, but whom he finally converted. 8he and a girl companion are working in a heathen village 50 miles from their home. Ten other native teachers are previously recorded.
