Lady’s Skirt Too
Full When Doggy
Tries To Share It
A sham. black haired dog in-
sisted on boardina' a south bound
trolley yesterday afternoon. Dash-
ing past the motorman. disre-
ssrdlng his demands for a fare.
the animal made his way between .
s tangle‘of legs and feet to the
back of the ear.
Seeing himself surrounded by a
whole oarful of passena'ers and
fearins that he was about to be
putout into the cold cruel world,
‘the dog made himself as small
and inconspicuous as possible by
lying down on, his stomach
sonirrned under the seats until he
was safely hidden beneath a
lady's shirt.
The person who provided this
harbor of refuse was not a flap-
per. No indeedyi Her skirts
swept the ground. However, she.
suddenly finding a foreign obiect
trespassing on her personal 'pro~
party, broadcasted her fright in
no uncertain terms and dashed
into the aisle.
The motorrnan. seven men and
three boys finally succeeded in
persuading the do; that walking
would be much better for him
and for all concerned.
iy into a scheme under which the
federal collectors take 20 per cent.
tax on estates and glue to the states
it per cent. for their taxes. This
leaves only 4 per cent. at the maxi-
mum for the government. The Son-
ato contended that this was not
worth the expense of collecting.
If the states have no inheritance
tax law. the government will keep
the entire amount it collects en es-
tates from those states. Opponent!
of the provision denounced it as an
attempt to coerce the states. Florida
which has‘ a constitutional ban on
the inheritance tax, led the fight
against the federal tax. But state
rights here met defeat.
