Dec. 9—Convincing proof that lnrome tax dodging is on the increase is contained in the returns from the separate states, just made public. It is true, as shown In previous articles, that the treasury de- partment Is collecting a larger amount of Income tax and has been successful in rounding up a large number of very rich delinquents: but except In a few states the number of taxpayers reporting incomes of less than $20,000 has decreased, in spite or the fact that Ifli was much more prosperous than 1914. In some cases the number of taxpayers reporting incomes less tiian $20,000 has decreased more than Jit per cent. Publicity of the iiicome tax leturns would cost absolutely noth- ing, but it would bring into the treasury the millions of dollars that must be had to pay lor the army and navy! 19 VICTIMS OF FEUD (Newspaper Enterprise Assorlnllon) NEW Y*RK, Dec. 9. —The bloodiest and most vindictive ven- detta ever waged In an American city has Just claimed its nineteenth victim beside the notorious "murder stable" in New York's Italian quarter. Caetarco del Oaudio, Little Italy's best known restaurant pro- prietor, waa drawing coffee in his lunch room near the "murder stable" when a charge of buckshot and slugs from a sawed-off shot- gun fired outside the restaurant window dropped him. As he was taken to the hospital, apparently dying, he whispered to the police the name of the man who would he No. 20 on Jhe list of "murder stable" victims, but he refused to divulge the next man's identity. DR. WILEY LANDS HARD (Tutted Press Leased Wire.) WASHINGTON, D. ('., Dec. 9.—Dr. Harvey W, Wiley, "the man who purified the American tabic," came out today witli a plan to save it from the clutches of the food speculator. He wants muni- cipal and state control of all food supplies. "The people must take the thing into their own hands," Dr. Wiley declared to the United Press. "Federal control has failed so far to answer the purpose." Dr. Wiley's plan, which he "would submit to congress except Ihey know 1 can tell them too much," contemplates the taking over hy municipal authorities of all food supplies and the dispensing of them to the consumer at reasonable prices. Dr. Wiley took a fling at tlie American cook, declaring her "the most wasteful domestic on the face of the earth." THREE WEEKS TOO LATE Indignant at "the kind of health department we have," Mrs. Alice Eckersley Friday morning informed Tlie Times that a measles quarantine sign had just been affixed to her house, although her little girl, who was ill with the measles for three weeks, is well now. "The trained nurse whom we employed called up the depart- mnt at the time," she said, "the doctor called them up, and I called them tip, and no sign was put up. And now today, when every- thing is all over, they come around and put up the sign." LLOYD-GEORGE IS BUSY \u25a0 I niied Press Leased Wire) LONDON, Dec. 9.—England's cabinet-maker, David Lloyd- George, was believed today to have completed his task of "recon- struction of government." He was still at work, however, lining up every faction in British politics and imbuing them witli the determination that a united England would force a victorious conclusion of the war. There will probably be no announcement of those whom Lloyd- George will associate with himself in the "win the war" movement until Tuesday's meeting of commons. 11 j 'I Yesterday's Late News \ 11 Hid it Prru l.rnnril Wire) BANK liOHMIKS Gil 943,000 OMAHA, Neb., Dec. 8. —Four masked bandits held up and robbed the State bank of Winslow, Neb., a town 50 miles west of here, at 1:30 p. m., an descaped In an automobile with $6,000.

SUNDAY GETS BOSTON WETS ON THE RUN BOSTON, Dec. 9. —Billy Sunday has caused a panic in the ranks of the liquor men. They fear, and they make no bones of It, that because of .-Sun- day, Boston, the oasis for all of Northern New England, will vote itself, Dec. 19, into an rlcohollc Sahara. To prevent this, the Massachu- setts Liquor league, nominally the organization of retail dealers, but actually the instrument of the Na- tional Liquor league, of which it is a branch, and the state and na- tional organizations of the brew- ery interests, are working as the license advocates have never had I to work ln Massachusetts before. To date they have spent more money and sent out more litera- ture than ordinarily used in a statewide campaign and they frankly admit they have only be- gun to work. Between now and the opening of the polls a week from Tuesday, they plan to or.nvass every voter in the city, something never done here before; to send more than 1,000,000 pieces of literature lo voters, and to enlist on their side everybody who might be most re- motely affected hy no license, from the banker to the barber. Seven men enlist for U. S. army at Centralia recruiting station. Spokane cancels gasoline con- tract with large oil company when It Is discovered gasoline contains 19 per cent coal oil.
