Officers Watch Case ‘
Dr. MacQuaid. the \Norcester phy-
sician. Lieutenant James F. Sivan of
the “Worcester detective bureau and
State Policeman ’Robert E. Molt of
Worcester, who had come here to
serve a warrant on Henderson if he
should succeed in winning his case
in the local court, brought with
them statements revealing how the
National Health Association had op-
erated in Springfield.
The company’s scheme was to in-
duce investors to buy the notes of
the association. they said. on the
promise of big returns on their in-
vestment. The company was orga-
nised to insure people against sick-
ness. It undertook to pay all doctors
bills that should be incurred by any
of the policy holders who should be-
come ill. Insurance holders were sent
to more than 150 \Vorcester physic-
ians. Dr. MacQuaid said, and ran up
bills estimated at from 814.000 to
811.000. The company then found
itself unable to pay-the doctors. Its
office in W'orcester closed a few days
ago. 0f tangible assets there appear
to be none but the furniture in the
once.
It was in this concern that Ken-
derson was alleged to have put the
money of Miss Cook and her sister
and Filisi.
The state's attorney showed in his
argument for Henderson's convic-
tion that the concern was similar to
numerous other "wildcat" concerns
which every year take millions of
dollars from imestors and savings
bank di‘poailurs, who are induced by
glib stuck salesmen to take notes or

NEW YORK. Feb. 26.—“There is

reduced tonne-millionth part of the
national budget.
"It is almost impossible. from the
layman's point of view." he said. “to
understand an expense of 3.600 mil-
lion doliars. The mere thought of
such a sum causes consternation.
But suppose you are one of a mil-
lion people. each contributing $3.-
600. and then ..study where your
money goes in proportion to the
whole. That is a budget within the
grasp of everybody."
Mr. “'sdsworth then presented the

in the exorbitant rates on inherit-
ance. reaching a maximum of in per

which income taxes are now levied."
()f the inheritance tax. Mr. “‘ads-
worth said: “Such a. tax has no
place in the permanent tax system
of the Federal- Government. It
should only be used in emergency
and the financial emergency brought
about by the World W'ar is rapidly
passing by." ..
After characterizing surtaxes as
"still excessive and unproductive,"
Mr. Wadsworth said:
“The failure of the tax to take
away the income of the wealthy is
not due to dishonesty on the part of
either the tax collector or the tax-
payer. The fact is that there are
many ways left open for honestly
avoiding the tax and the temptation
to follow these ways and the obvi—
ous self-interest in doing so are too
great. However muchthe high sur-
tsx may appeal to the human desire
to see those pay the most who ap-
parently can best afford to pay. the
income tax as at present written is
not getting results in that direction."
Regarding the future. Mr. “’ads~

“In reforming the present taxes.
the practical experience of past
years should be used as a. guide.

The wealth of Fairfield county has

yeBasing their calculations upon the
assessed valuation of all property
subject to general property taxes.
statisticians of the Department of
Commerce today completed a study
of the wealth of the stats of Conn-
ecticut. which revealed that on the
per capita basis each resident of
Fairfleld county is now worth 81.-
‘h9 ”m“. “huh I. to 319.19. while ten years ago his prop-
erty amounted only to $997.95.
The total wealth of the county.
as represented by the assessed vai-
uati0n of all property. is reported
as 8517.1“.000. nearly double what
it was ten‘ years ago. when the
county's wealth was recorded at
$264,687,000.
While the per capita wealth of
Fairfleid county. both at the latest
tabulation and ten years ago. was
above the general average for the
whole state of Connecticut. the coun-
ty. on the other hand. has shown a
slightly smaller increase in per

period than has the State as a
whole. -
A decade ago. the per capita
wealth for the State was $881.15.
and today it is $1367.89. represent-

field county's wealth has increased
from $997.95 per mp’ita to $1,519.19
in the last ten years. an increase.of
approximately 52 per cent.
The Federal experts have disclosed
the interesting fact that in Connecti-
cut during the last ten years there
has been a greater increase and
greater diffusion of wealth in the
urban counties. in general. than in
the more rural counties of the state.
Hartford County outranks all the
other counties of the state in point
of per capita wealth. its valuation
of property amounting to 31.558.86

Opposition View of Mussolini.

Nothing is more characteristic of
Fascism than its incapacity to con-
ceive political life as a. matter of
give and take. In Fascist eyes these
who dissent are anti-national. trait-
ors. against whom it is legitimate.
or rather a duty. to proceed with all
the severity of the law; and since
the law is often insufficient. because
based upon the liberal principles of
the "stupid" nineteenth century. it
must be rc-enforced by "Fuse
methods."
Not less pitiful has been the col-
lapse of the Mussolini myth. In
reality. few men are weaker and
less decided than he or more sus-
ceptible of being influenced.
