TAFT'S LONG TRIP IS HOW ALMOST OVER Secretary MaeVeagh is anxious that thf square question «»f constitutionality shall V only one to be aired in the courts, and not small matters of administration of tin- law. For this reason Ik- is proceeding with exceeding care and caution in the preparation of the blanks <»n which the returns from tie various corporations will be made to'the department. He doesn't want to giv< the corporations a chance to Hud any flaws in these blanks It is this very likelihood that brings up an interesting question. Nobody doubts that the corporation tax law will be attacked on the ground that it is an Income t:i X within the meaning of the Constitution rather than an excise tax, despite the faet that it is distinctly labelled the latter. In this view, consideration of the law may give the Supreme Court U chance to pass anew on the income tax question and perhaps reverse itself. Millions of dollars will pour into the Treasury next June from the new law. How long it will.remain there is another question. Presumably the measure will be attacked through suits for recovery of money paid by corporations. It will probably take a good many months to settle the question of its validity once and for all—and the Supreme Court of the Cnited States will undoubtedly have the final word. Treasury Department is already preparing to resist the forthcoming assaults by the big corporations on the new corporation tax. There isn't any doubt but that this measure will be assailed and that the courts must in the end pass upon its provisions. For I his reason Scerctar.x MucWagli is interested personally in s< • ing (hat his officials make no errors in a legal way in the administration. ,,f the mcasu re. United Press Correspondence. WASHINGTON, I>. O.. Nov. !».—The The truancy matter got a jolt when Officer Llndsey reported that during the past month he had sent 42 notices of truancy. Most of the cases are easy to correct, but there are .about a doaen which have become chronic and will require legal proceeding*., or other extreme measures. One mother complains that her 13- , year-old daughter does yot get home that the School Board should take up the matter not later than January. President Winslow discussed Ways and Means: Prof. Jackson put in a good word for a strictly High School building, and about all of the directors ex pi esse d the opinion that something in the building line must be done next ig u m mer. The need of more school rooms j bobbed up when Supt. Jackson sub- i mitted his statistical report, showing j that the 1,700 mark in attendance is I only a few moons off, and supple- j mcnted the ligures with an oral state- j ment to the effect that the buildings \ are all crowded so that when a batch of promotions comes along It requires | skill, like unto an expert checker player, to figure out possible moves. Thereupon Director Kobinson stated , More school rooms and less truancy in Punxsutawney are two subjects which received a pretty thorough airing at the regular monthly meeting of the local board of School Commissioners last night. Covers were were laid at the festive board for Lieutenant John Walsh, H. J. Loeb, Captain Leon Pitcher, Lieutenant Cecil Wilhelm, Dr. J. L. Robinson, Dr. Harry (lourlcy, George Post, William Mullen.

The remainder of the evening was given over to sociability and leave taking.Following the rounds of congratulations and regrets George 10. Render rendered several vocal solos that were highly appreciated, as was evidenced by the applause. When the cigars were lighted toastmaster H. J. Loeb arose and after paying Lieutenant Walsh an assortment of compliments, proposed a toast to Mr. Walsh that the banqueters heartily responded to. Each hi turn then paid his tribute to the guest of honor, all varying a little in the substance of their talks but all agreeing on the points that Lieutenant Walsh's promotion was much deserved and his departure much regreted. The guest of honor replied by thanking all in a hearty manner and expressing his regret that he was about to have "the best town made up of the best people in the universe." Shortly after nine o'clock I he fourteen-were seated at a banquet, conceived and prepared by (Jlcekler, who thereby jidvanced his claims to being the best caterer in this section of tin- State. There were oysters raw. oysters stewed and oysters fried, with all the garnlshings, and those who participated made evident their appreciation of Mr. (Heckler's efforts by promptly putting everything out of sight that came their way.
