That vicious era of big time crime that J. Edgar Hoover
and his G-men have erased so completely began, you will recall, in the days of prohibition. From their illicit traffic, gangsters gained huge profits with which to buy protection and
wield great power. __
But though they've been crushed by repeal and the Gmen, we have still to complete the job of wiping out bootlegging, carried on now not by gangsters, but by petty dodgers of alcohol taxes. The astonishing truth is that in California today, thirty per cent of all alcoholic beverages consumed

Now that the quintuplets are two years old and everyone to wishing them a happy birthday this week, it isbeing
\hicpcred about that maybe they won't be having such a very
happy birthday “on account 6f what looms ahead.
Canadiens, who sometimes copy new U. S. methods, are
said to be considering a Quintuplet Tax. With all the movie
money the quints have and some more also, they ve become
a pretty hic business. And: besides look how many there are.
If it's done the U. S. way, they'll only put a $40 tax on
Marie. Yyonne will have to pay $80, and Cecile $200. All
over three will. be taxed $500, which will leave Annette and
Emilic in a pretty bad spot, since they'll have to decide whether to leave home or go out of business.

push this Quintuplet Tax through Parliament. After all, the
quints are getting more than their share of attention.
They'll have some competition from now on, of course,
since those quadruplets have appeared in Passaic, New Jersey. These might. escape any U. S. Quadruplet Tax, however, because if Congress voted to put a progressively higher .
levy on the first three and $500 for all over that; there’d be
only one left who might have to go out of business.
But the least we can expect for the quadruplets will be
a Congressional investigation. Meanwhile it will be interesting to watch how the Canadians come out on their Quintuplet
Tax idea.

for “America’s fastest moving western show.’”’

Flying J ranch on Saturday and Sunday are past, pyesent and future
champions in all departments of the

western stables. Livestock, to have

is the choice of Yuba and _ Sutter

No single feature of the egreat
show, however, is more interesting
than the troop of Imperial Russian
Cossacks who. arrived this week to
polish off their training in the local
scene. This spectacular entry is only

that will add to the contests in the
