NORWICH -BULLETIN, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1921 Says His Prescription Has Powerful Influence " Over Rheumatism Mr, James H. Allen suffered for years ‘writh rheumatism. Many times this errible disease left him helpless and |unable to work. He finally decided, after years of jceaseless study, that no one can De ifree from rheumatism until the aes {eumalated impurities, commonly called iuric acid deposits, were dissolved in Ithé joints and muscies and expelled from the body. ‘With this idea in mind, he consulted |physictans, made experiments and final- Yy compounded a prescr?{tibn that quickly and completely banilhed every sign and symptom of rheumatism from his_system. He freely gave his discovery to others who took it, with what might be called marvelous success. After ears of urging, he decided to let suf- \ferers everywhers know about his dix- covery through the newspapers. Lee & Osgood Company has been appointed agents for Allenrhu in this vieinity with the understanding that they. will freely return the purchase money to all-whe state they raceived ne henafd. — e AMUSEMENTS TAX WOULD BRING IN $3,600,000 Records on file in the state tax com- missioner’s office show that approximate- Ty $3,600,000 would be aded to the state’s Dbiennia] révenue under the state tax om amusements proposed by Representative Jacob D! Walter of Cheshire, house chairman of the finance committee. As Tax Commissfoner Blodgett's bill for a 2 per cent. tax on uninconporated business- es Is estimated to be capable of produc- ing $2,000,000 for the two-year period for which the budget is prepared, the adop- iion of both bills would mean an increass of abouT §3,600,000 in the revenue needed to meet the state’s expense up 10 the time of the mext session of the legisla- ture. These two pans, together with that for a tax on intangibles promise to be the chief bones of contention among the fevenue-producing bilis - that have been referred to the finance commitiee. It is impossible to approximate what the tax on intangibles might be expected te nhet the state. House Chairman Walter's bill for a tax on amusements is similar to the fed- eral tax, Which has been fizured to pro- duce $1,800,000 in Connecticut for the government each year. It would affeot the public more directly than either of the other two plansdmentioned, as it would double the “war tax” now charged at theatre box offices and in connection with the admission fees for Similar pur- poses, half to go to the state and half to the government umless the latter should repeal its tax on amusements. The bill provides a tax of 1 cent fer each 10 cents or portion thereof charged as admission te any place of arfusement, and 1 3-4' per eent. on each 10 cents of the price charged for refreshments. 1f the backers of the bill have devised somé plan by which the theaters will ae- tually be made to stand’ the tax instead of passing it along to the ultimate con- sumer, they will deserve a vote of thanks from the ticket Buyers. It is estimated that extenzion of the $2 personal tax to women, as contem- plated in a Bill introduced by Represen- tative Edward A. Smith of Hebren, would make a total amount due annual- ly in all towns of the state in personal tax, by both men and women, about $1,- 300,000. The rate bill in effect this year for the collection of persohal tax in- eludes the names of 287,332 men and as- #uming that the number of women liable under the tax would be equal to the te- tal of this figure and the numbet of ex- emptions allowed 'or military servive. It Is figured that about 650,000 between 21 and 60 years old would come under the provisions of the act. - Proceéeds of the personal tax, howe ever, are retained entirely by the towns and therofore could not be counted upon to assist in raising the revenue needed by the state to counterbalance the de- mands expected to be made on the state treasury during the cémning two years. These figures a1t based on 100 per ! cent. collections, but records in the state tax depaftment disclose. that only about 60 per cent. on the average is realized by municipalities on tlie personal tax, ow- Ing Jargely to the fact that there is snch a4 long lapse of time between the enroli- ment on October 1 and the collestion February 1 that it is dificuk for local tax collectors to keep up with the rémo- vals and other changes in the list. For the reason, # has been suggested that the present session of the legistature adopt a bill fixing the time for colleetion immediately” after that for the enroli. ment. The records show that 23,181 less per. sons are liable to the personal tax in Connecticut this year than in 1917, on account of exemption for military ser- vice aliowed since the 1917 enrollment. WEDDING. Hurtadb—Maritls, Oscar Hurtado and Miss Alice Maritis, both of Hartford. were united in mar. riage on Wednesday afternoon in this city by Judge John H. Barnes, justice of the peace.

For the benefit of Notwich pesple in- terested in the rtate legislation and haar. ings that are held from time to time, Representative C. V. Pendleto will post in the window of his Broadway store every day the Legislature Bulletin show- ing when every hearing is to be held in Hartford. This idea is one of the best, for there are frequently times when cer- tain persons interested in various mat- ters up for hearing want to know whea the hearing takes place.

Frank D. Stanage, who lives in East Nor- wich and is a_millwright at the cutlery in Thamesville, brings the suit against Albert Haubt and wife who also live in East Norwich. Mr. Strange was the only witness_ put én the stand Wednesday by his attorney, Judze John H. Barnes. His testimony was that in May, 1817, he had bought some bean poles from M:® Haubt and when he went to the Haubt Place on May 19 to get the poles, Mrs. Haubt di- rected him to go up a path to the lot to get the pol On the way up the path, Mr. Strange said, he was attack- ed by the Haubt's doz, which was chain- cd in a kennel, but the chain was long enough #o that when the dog rushed out he was able to reach Mr. Strange and bite him in two places in the left thigh. The wbunds were cauterized by Dr. D. ‘J. Shahan, the witfiess said, but he suf- fered from them for twe and a half He still carries the s. which he showed to Judge Hin- an in the judge's room.

The noonday luncheon of the Nor- wich Rotary club on Wednesday at ‘the ‘Wauregan hotel was given over to the Norwich Chamber of Commerce and officials of the State Chamber of Commerce. There were about 100 present at the meeting inciuding a large number of members of the Cham- ber-of Commerce and prominent busi- ness heads of the cit, The tables were arranged in a square and pretti- ly decorated with poited plants from Ernst's. The invocation was by Rev. Dr. J. H. Selden. Eben Learned was the song leader for the luncheon and P. W. Wheeler and Henry J. LaFon- taine rendered two pleasing solos. As a special treat the Lotus Male Quar- tette, guests of Dr. Hugh B. Camp- bell, 'sang several selections in fine voice, their renderings being heartily applauded calling for them to respond 1o repeated encores. 7 Prs‘!;xder\t Joseph C. Worth presided at the mleeting and welcomed the guests and members of the Chamber of C8mmerce and introduced George B. Chandler, secretaty of the Siate Chamber of Commerce as the speaker. Mr. Chandler was greeted with ap- plause and in his opening remarke complimented Norwich on its 'Rotary club and Chamber of Commerce, say- ing that some of his pl ntest mem- are associated with Norwich peo- | ple and the Nerwich Chamber of Com- | merce. He went on to say that his talk was to be one of celd-blooded business facts on problems that confront this country and state in the period of re- construction _ following the world's| greatest conflict. We are rich, said Mr. Chandier, but we are beginning t0 feel' the pressure of business depres= sion that follows any at phy. Many of the m e we on short time and there are thousands of our laboring men who are out of employment. Our governor sounded the note of the state when he advised a policy of economical entrenchment. State retrenchment means individual retrenchment. Several years ago the state paid her debt and was with mon in her cof- fers but during the past few vears ihere has been an enormous expense and today, the state owes something like six and one-half millions. The bills for appropriations before the gen- eral assembly now amount to more than 32 millions, more than the an- nual income of the state by many mil- lions. In fact the expenses of the state department will eat up the rev- enue of the state in one year. One of the aims of the State Cham- ber of Commerce is to try and assist the state in its program of economy. A committee is to rmake a survey of the financial conditions of the and to treat the affairs of the as a_big corporgtion, which it really i. When the 2ur\ is made it is planned to submit it for the impartial advice of the great financier of the state. Another great problem that is be- ing seriously considered by the State Chamber is the problem of transporta- tion, both urban and interurban. The trolleys of the state are in sad state, many lines have been discontinued and the companies face financial distress. The transportation companies must be kept in a healthy condition if we would COLD-FACTS TALK AT ROTARY MEETING | considered and a survey is being made, have our busimess enterprises flourish. The highest ability in the state will consider the problem and try to ar- rive at some eeiution. The matter of taxation will be taken up. The State Chamber of Commerce has been investigating this problem for many months ard it 18 doubtful if this problem can be adjusted at the pres- ent time. It been recommende as sound business to issue bonds on the state until conditions are more sec tied and a system of stable taxation can be instituted. General welfare is another thing that | is being considered by thoec versed in the conditions in the state. The prob- lem of teachers’ salaries is beinb con- sidered and a swvey of playgrounds in the state is being made. The waterpower problem g is beir Connecticut i gekting raw material from Pennsylvania and the west and then shipping the finished product back by the same'route. In order to compete with the west Connectict must make use of y _ava horse-power in the s The r power in the state,is running to waste and there is much.that could be nessed.

Mr. Chandler was heartily apolaud- ed at the conclusion of his talk and he with the Lotus Male Quartette and the members of the State Chamber o Commerce were given a rising vote of appreciation. At this meeting the new song books were used for the first time. The books are attractively made and contain 52 songs, rotary songe and popular old melodies. Joseph N.
