U. S. COLLECTED
$5,408,075,468 IN
TAXES LAST YEAR
WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.—(By the
Associated Press.) —America’s tax
bill for the fiscal year ending June
30 amounted to $5,405,075,46a, ap
proximately a billion and a half dol
lars more than was paid into- the
federal treasury in the previous
twelve months.
Final figures for the year were
contained in the preliminary report
of the commissioner of internal rev
enue, made public last night. It
shows from Income and profits taxes
the government received approxi
mately three-fourths of all its reve
nue. In these two it was there was
an- increase of $1,356,300,000 over
the fiscal year of 1919, receipts for
the two years being: 1920, $3,957,-
701,000; 1919, $2,600,000,000.
From multifarious sources of
“miscellaneous” taxation, the levy
produced $1,450,374,000 an increase
over the previous year of $201,-
300,000.
In the first full year of the pro
hibition era, there was a net re
duction of $343,000,000 tn taxes on
distilled and fermented liquors, the
report shows. From distilled spirits
the government received $97,907,000
in the last fiscal year while the
taxes from the same source in 1919
were $365,211,000. Taxes on fer
mented liquors for the last fiscal
year aggregated $41,965,000 and for
the fiscal year of 1919, $117,837,030.
Comparative Figures
-The report also shows comparative
revenues for the fiscal years of
1909 and 1920. The former date
was the last full year in Which the
government derived its principal
revenues from three sources, dis
tilled spirits, fermented liquors and
tobacco. Taxes produced on the
three items in 1909, amounted to
$244,211,000 while this revenue in
the year just ended was 1435,718,000.
In 1909 these taxes constituted 99.1
per cent of the nation’s revenues
while last year they were only 8.06
per cent of the total taxes. Al
though there was a big decrease in
taxes on liquors between the two
years shown, there was a corre
spondingly greater increase in the
revenue from tobacco, in all of its
forms. In 1909, the tobacco tax
amounted to only $51,887,000 while
in 1920 it was $295,845,300 the re
port showed.
The transportation tax which had
been estimated to produce about
$275,000,000 annually reached $307,-
808,030 for the last fiscal year. This
included taxes on freight, passenger,
express, telephone and telegraph and
transfer of oil by pipe line.
Excise and special taxes includ
ing the “luxury tax” brought about
$373,000,000 into the treasury. One
of the chief items in this list was
the tax on motor cars which netted
$144,000,300. Taxes on jewelry,
cosmetics and other so-called “lux
uries” produced another $56,000,000.
The special corporation tax on the
value of its stock yielded $93,000.-
value of its stocq yielded $93.-
000.
Withdrawals from bonded ware
houses of distilled spirits for in
dustrial and other non-beverage pur
poses increased from 11,000,000 to
more than 28,000,000 gallons from
1919 to 192 3, the report disclosed.
But in withdrawals from bond of
distilled spirits which were labelled
for beverage use, there was a de
crease from 72,500,000 gallons in
1919 to 200,000 gallons in the last
fiscal year.
The 1919 consumption of cigars
was 7,110,000,000 and in the fiscal
year of 1923, ranged slightly over
8,200,000,000.
Figures by States
Cigarettes also are being consum
ed in vastly increased amounts. The
report showed taxes had oeen paid
on 36,950,000.000 in 1918; 38,100,300,-
000 in 1919 and 50.400,003.000 in
the fiscal year ended June 30.
Commissioner Williams reported
the year’s expenditures of the bu
reau of internal revenue at $27,700,-
000. This included an expenditure
of $2,100,030 for enforcement of pro
hibition. $465,000 for enforcement of
the narcotic laws and $90,000 used in
enforcing the laws against child
labor. The actual cost of tax col
lection, Mr. Williams estimated at
50 cents on each SIOO collected, an
expenditure of about 1 per cent more
than in 1919.
Internal revenue receipts for
twelve months by states and terri
tories include:
Alabama, $18,435,951; Arkansas.
$12,556,172; Florida, $15,623,811 ;

Civic Organizations Busy
With Fair Opening
Less Than a Week Away
With the opening of the South
eastern fair next Saturday less than
a week off, every effort is being made
by various civic organizations of At
lanta to speed the sale of tickets.
The executive committee of the
fair association and the presidents
and secretaries of Atlanta civic or
ganizations will hold a meeting in the
assembly hall of the chamber of com
merce Thursday afternoon, at which
reports on the sale of tickets will be
made.
In the meantime V. H. Kriegshaber,
chairman of the committee on civic
co-operation, is urging that every
civic organization subscribe for as
many tickets as possible.
Out at Dakewood all details inci
dent to the opening of the fair on
Saturday are being rapidly whipped
into shape. The Johnny J. Jones
shows are already on the spot and
were in full operation Tuesday after
noon In the building the exhibits
are being installed and everything
indicates the best fair in the history
of the association.
Mr. Kriegshaber has sent the fol
lowing appeal 'to the various civic
organizations:
“The people of Atlanta have not
responded as liberally in the past to
the support of the fair as we would
like Dast year a larger percentage
of out-of-towh people passed through
the gates than Atlantians.
"This year we have arranged for
the best fair in the history of the
association. As you know, the fair
and all that it owns belongs to the
city of Atlanta; therefore, whatever
we.do out there adds to the city’s
wealth and prosperity The educa
tional exhibits' and the amusement
features certainly must attract ev
ery person who has the welfare of
the fair, our community and the
state at large at heart.
“We are asking every civic organ
ization to help us In the distribution
of tickets. We are sending you me
of the pledge cards, that we will
give you a supply of, and request
Diamonds Worth Millions
Flood Markets of Paris
French economists see in the flood
ing of the Paris jewelry market with
millions of dollars ’worth of diamonds
issuing from the safety deposit vaults
of war profiteers a sure sign that
French capitalists are regaining con
fidence in the business future of their
own country. It is reliably estimated
that 50,000,000 francs’ worth of “war
profit” diamonds have been thrown
on the French market in recent
months.
Immediately following the armis
tice, hundreds of French millionaires,
grown panicky at the tremendous
paper currency inflation, turned their

your members, asking that they' ad
vise you or your secretary how many

tion returned to Mr. Striplin, the
admission tickets will be mailed or
sent, and, of course ,you will be held
responsible for them at 75 cents
each.
“We are hoping that many of our
merchants and manufacturers will
either close on Atlanta day, Monday,
the eighteenth, or close Wednesday
afternoon with the retail merchants,
October 20, and give their employes
an opportunity to see and enjoy the
wonderful exhibits, ‘•.he races, free
vaudeville, the fireworks, etc. We
hope to have your co-operation in
this way If so, kindly advise Mr.
Striplin at once so that we will
know what to do.”
The first carload of cattle for the
fair hag already arrived from the
farm of J. R. Smith at Fayetteville,
Tenn. Quite a number of hogs also
have arrived and word has been re
ceived that four carloads of swine
are on their way from the Oklahoma
State fair.
The arrival of the Johnny J. Jones
shows several days in advance of
the opening of the fair will give op
portunity to Atlantians to see the
entire carnival now. thereby avoid

Ed R. Salter, publicity man for the
shows, is responsible for the state

open every afternoon and night. The
numerous attractions include the
following:

and Park Place. A bullet had bored
its way through his left shoulder
blade and heart before he could draw
his own automatic from the holster
under his left arm. Still under his
arm, where it bad been stopped by
the assassin’s bullet, the right hand
of “Little Mac” had stiffened about
the pistol. Tne assassin is said by
the police to be a former sweetheart
of McGrohan’s bride of three weeks.
According to the story told the
police by a man they refused to tell
his name, he was a fast worker with
women. He met a rival gangster
three years ago. The rival had a
“steady.” McGrohan boasted she
soon would be his girl. She fell in
love with “Little Mac” and three
weeks ago they were married.
The disappointed lover swore to
get “Little Mac.” The first oppor
tunity came early this morning. Mc-
Grohan and his bride were stepping
into an automobile uptown. They
were seen by members of the riva‘l
gang. An automobile followed, slnd
when “Little Mac” stepped from the
machine in West Broadway a bullet
winged its way toward him. He
didn’t have a chance to shoot.
What became of the girl bride of
the slain man Is not known by the
police, but it is believed she was for
cibly taken from the scene of the
tragedy by those who had trailed
and settled their grudge with “Little
Mac.’’
A man describing himself as. Jo
seph Burns, Brooklyn, believed to
have been a "pal” of the slain gang
ster, is being detained in the Broad
street hospital by the police until
he gives a full story of how he re
ceived builet wounds for which he
was treated at the hospital
According to the police Burns ad
mitted he was with McGrohan, but
says he does not know how his
friend was shot. Further arrests are
expected.

DOUGLAS SHERIFF
OFFERS REWARD
FOR NIGHT RIDERS
Sheriff A. S. Baggett, of Douglas
county, has offered a reward of S3OO
for the arrest of the parties guilty
of posting notices on cotton gins
warning the owners to cease opera
tions. The sheriff has also appealed
to Governor Dorsey for assistance in
running down the persons attempt
ing to terrorize the cotton ginners.
In a letter to the governor, Sheriff
Baggett declares that practically ev
ery gin in Douglas county has been
posted with warnings from mysteri
ous night riders and while there’ have
been no Incendiary fires thus far, it
is feared that gins will be destroyed
unless drastic measures are taken at
once.
Governor Dorsey has replied to
Sheriff Baggett saying there is no
statute under which the governor
may offer a reward for the arrest of
persons guilty of a misdemeanor. The
posting of a threatening notice is a
misdemeanor under the law. If agin
should be burned, however, the or
fense becomes a felony and the gov
ernor could legally offer a reward
for the arrest of the guilty parties
Governor Dorsey has indicated that
he would offer rewards in such cases.
Commending Sheriff Baggett for
taking the initiative in Douglas coun
ty and making an energetic attempt
to apprehend the night riders, Gov
ernor Dorsey assured him that tne
full co-operation of the state authori
ties would be given in the effort to
stop terrorizing of cotton ginners by
“fanatics.”
Owners Employ Guards
According to Sheriff Baggett the
dinners of Douglas county are em
nloving guards for their gms at a
cost of from $lO to sls per
and thus far none of the posted
plants have been destroyed. The
nosting of gins has become general
throughout the counties adjoining
Douglas, he declares.

is said to have confessed that the
motive was robbery, and one of them
is said to have confessed that the

theory that the shooting was an act
of night riders.
Kilby’s Proclamation
“In a proclamation citing the burn
ing of gins and gin houses in Ala
bama, Governor Kilby has offered a
reward of $250 for the arrest and
conviction of any person guilty of
the destruction of property. ‘This
character of lawlessness deliberately
violates one of the fundamental pur
poses for which government is estab
lished and threatens to substitute
for orderly government a reign ot
terror and violence,’ the governor de
clsLFed.
“Governor Cooper in a communica
tion to D. W. Harris, solicitor of the
Tenth judicial circuit of South Caro
lina, deplored the acts of ‘fanatics'
and gave assurance that should any
situation develop which would re
quire extra effort on the part of
the state he would not hesitate to
order it. Mr. Harris had written the
governor of the posting of warnings
on gins and had asked if any prepara
tions had been made for the sending
of detectives into the affected dis
tricts. The only overt act so far
committed in South Carolina was the
removal last week of mechanical
parts from a gin in Anderson county.
These were replaced, and the gin re
sumed operation.”
PLAN MASS MEETING
TO PROTECT GINNERS
ANNISTON, Ala., Oct. 12.—Follow
ing posting of notices at several cot
ton gins in Calhoun county that the
gins must be closed by Wednesday
or be destroyed, a mass meeting of
citizens of the county has been call
ed here for Wednesday at which time
it is planned to take action to pro
tect ginners.
The president of the county di
vision of the American Cotton asso
ciation Monday issued an appeal to
“all who stand for law and order
to attend the meeting. It is pro
posed to effect an agreement among
the ginners whereby they will ei
ther close their gins or demand as
surance from cotton growers that
their properties will not be violated.
‘ One man who owns and operates
five gins in the county received a.
letter signed “Committee of 100 de
manding 1 that he close all of the gins
by Wednesday. Notices were also
posted at the gins that they must be
shut down by Wednesday or be de
stroyd. <>her gins all over the coun
ty were reported posted.
The "Committee of 100, supposed
to be night riders, demands that the
gins cease operation until the price
of cotton reaches forty cents.

presence or absence of a pearl in
oysters without destroying the bi
valve, according to advices from the
Orient One of the world’s most an
cient jewels may be saved in this
way from eventual extinction.
It has been customary to open the
oyster shells in the search for pearls.
This results in the death of the oys
ter. This process continued through
the centuries has seriously depleted
the number of pearl oysters. The
pearl fisheries are approaching ex
haustion. No large pearls have been
found for years. The X-ray recently
was tried in an effort to the
oysters. It apparently solved; the
problem. It was found feasible to
determine whether an oyster con
tained a pearl. Even small pearls
were made visible. Mollusks that
held no gems were thrown back to
become the possible pearl-bearers of
the future.

CLOTHING HEAD
EXPECTS LOWER
LIVING PRICES
That the people of the country may
expect living costs to be lower from
now on and that the business of the
country will be on a sound basis
with a few months, is the opinion
of George W. Kibler, president of a
chain of thirty-three men’s clothing
stores, operated in principal cities of
the country under the firm name of
Kibler & Dong, who was in Atlanta
Tuesday and gave out an interesting
interview concerning // the present
trend of prices.
Kibler & Dong operate two stores
in Atlanta, one at Peachtree and Cone
streets, and the other at 10 Decatur
street. A revision in prices has
just been announced, whereby the
stores will sell all suits and over
coats at two prices, $35 and $45. Ac
cording to Mr. Kibler, these prices
will not be changed for at least
twelve months.
The Kibler & Dong firm has been
In business for twenty years, and Mr.
Kibler said Tuesday that none of its
thirty-three stores had ever had a
“sale” at reduced prices, and further,
that this was the first time in its his
tory that prices had ever been re
duce d’ for any reason whatever.

Minnesota Farmers
Accused of Combining
MINNEAPODIS, Minn., Oct. 12.
That farmers are forming organiza
tions throughout the country to force
legislation to enable them to combine
to hold their crops until the price of

wanted was charged here today by P.
E. Goodrich, president of the Grain
Dealers’ Association, speaking before
the International Grain Conference.
“The next movement in this coun
try will be an agrarian movement,’’
said Goodrich. He declared farmers
were being misled by ambitious po
liticians into forming organizations

surpass advantages obtained by labor
