The charges include feeding of bread saturated with castor oil to Jads confined in solitary cells; club- bings on their bare feet with hickory sticks; lashings with straps made of three thicknesses of sole leather held together by shoe nails; beating of boys in hospital wards, and kicking of offenders lying on the floor. New Haven, March 5 (®—Gov. Trumbull's special commission to in- vestigate charges of brutal methods of maintaining discipline at the Con- necticut School for Boys at Meriden planned to meet here today to adopt a program for its inquiry. The three members are George H. Day, Hart- ford, Judge Walter M. Pickett and William A. Hendrick, both of this city. 3 At least three other investigations are in prospect as the result of dis- closures made by the state depart- ment of welfare. The state depart- ment of health and the state board of cducation indicated they will send representatives to the school some time this week. A third “thorough” investigation has been promised by the school’s board of trustces which meets tomorrow. The charges are based on stories told by former inmates to James S. Peck, tfarm superintendent of the school and the welfare department. GAS TAX DECISION | IN ALABAMA CASE. Bureau Holds Consumer Cannot| Deduct Sums Paid —— Washington, March 5 (P—The in- ternal revenue bureau ruled today that the gasoline tax imposed by the state of Alabama was deductible for federal income {ax purposes by the | distributor, retail dealer, or storer who pays it, but not by the con- sumer. The bureau held, however, that if the tax is added to, or made a part of the business expense of such dis- tributor, retail dealer, or storer, it cannot be deducted by him separ- ately as a tax. The opinion was rendered after a study of the gasoline tax of AlaLama, said “it appears from the foregoing | that the purpose of the act approved February 10, 1923, ag amended, is to impose the gasoline tax of the state of Alabama upon the distribu- tor, retail dealer or storer. The act approved January 4, 1 imposing an additional tax of 2 cents per gal- lon, is similar and the same purposc is manifest. There is nothing in the statutes cither by provision for a |refund or otherwise, to indicate an |intention or purpose to imposc the | tax upon the consumer of gasolinc.” The burcau said the ruling applied only to Alabama. Hartford, March 5 (—With the investigation by the state board of health already under way this morn- ing, and a preliminary meeting of Governor Trumbull's special com- mission of three scheduled this aft- crnoon in New Haven, an intensive official probe into the widespread charges of brutality and antiquated methods at the Connecticut School for Boys at Meriden was finally in- itlated today. Tour experts of the state deparl- ment of health, including Dr. Stanley M. Osborn, commissioner, Dr, Mil- lard Knowelton, head of the bureau of preventable discases, Warren J. Scolt, of the bureau of sanitary en- gineering, and one other, went down to the school from Hartford this morning to make the survey of the institution recommended as a resull of the startling disclosures of un- wholesome conditions there, which have been brought out during the past eleven days. Meanwhile the state board of edu- cation, already requested. to inaugu- rate a similar survey to determine the educational standards prevailing at the place, was in session this morning. It was announced at the office of Dr. Albert B. Meredith. state commissioner of education, that the survey would be started immedi- ately, and that experts would be sent to the school probably tomorrow. 0 Check them quickly with the universal standard remedy for colds.
