McAdoo Wants Vaults
Hunted For Income Tax
Special to The Telegraph
Washington, June 19.—1n hunting
for the $24,000,000 "that was only
dreamed" Secretary McAdoo has made
his first move in his campaign against
the income tax evaders.
The secretary sent a communication
to Congress to-day recommendinT an
amendment to the law which will
give the revenue collectors broader in
quisitorial power.
This is the first change to be pro
posed by the administration in the in
come tax law and it follows closely on
the heels of the acknowledgement by
Mr. McAdoo that the income tax on
individuals will yield for the present
fiscal year not much more than half
the amount estimated.
The amendment is aimed chiefly at
checking up in the matter of stock
dividends. Under the present law the
individual in paying the normal tax
is permitted to deduct such dividends
because of the tax of 1 per cent, im
posed on corporations.
The internal revenue men appar
ently feel that some deductions have
been made on that score that may not
be warranted. Now they purpose to
open the stock lists of all corporations
subject to the tax and also to give the
collectors other powers which will en
able them to trace a taxpayer's securi
ties even into a safe deposit v^ult.

HARVARD IS WINNER I 1
OF MORNING EVENTS
Two Minor Races Developed Into
One-Sided Contest in Each
Case
By Associated Press
New London, Conn., June 19.—Har
vard crews opened the annual regatta
against Yale to-day in a most auspi
cious manner from a Cromson stand
point by winning both forenoon races
from the Blue oarsmen In an Impress
ive fashion. The Cambridge rowing
scholars of Coach Jim Wray won the
eight-oared event for junior crews by
seven lengths and the freshman eight
oared contest by four lengths of open
water. If the Harvard varsity could
continue the victory through the four
mile event late this afternoon it meant
another clean sweep for the Crimson
crews. »
The two minor events developed into
a onesided contest In each race. Once
the Harvard crews had gained the lead
they set the pace for the lull two miles
and the Eli sweep swingers never
proved dangerous, although they chal
lenged gamely at the half-way mark.
In each case, however, the Harvard
oarsmen responded and held their
lead, crossing the line in better physi
cal condition than their rivals. The
official times taken on the regatta
committee boat show clearly the supe
riority of the Crimson crews at the
llnish:
Second varsity eights, two miles.
Harvard, 11 minutes 43 second; Yale,
12 minutes 02 seconds. Freshman
eights, two miles. Harvard, 11 min
utes 45 seconds; Yale, 12 minutes 04
seconds.
Weather conditions were not favor
able to fast times, for a drizzling rain
fell and the wind and tide roughened
the water.
The Harvard second eight leaves for
England to-morrow to compete in the
English Royal Henley regatta.
Wilson Will Be Asked
to Withdraw Treaty
Special to The Telegraph
Washington, june 19. Opposition 1
to the ratification of the proposed <
treaty with Columbia bulked so large i
in the Sen ite that a Southern Demo- ]
crat, who is regarded as an Adminis
tration leader, has determined to ask (
President Wilson to withdraw the
treaty pending an investigation by a i
select committee into the circum- 1
stances of the acquisition of the Pana
ma Canal zone by the United States.
This Senator proposes that Theo- 1
dore Roosevelt, William Nelson Crom
well and others who played a promi
nent part in the initiation of the
canal project shall be called upon for
information.
The phase "deeply regrets" occurs
in a communication presented to Senor
Urrutia, of Colombia, by Minister Du
bois on February 15, 1913. The note
was written in connection with an at
tempt made by President Taft and
Secretary of State Knox to achieve a
settlement with Colombia in the last
hours of their administration. In this
Mr. Dubois presented certain definite
suggestions .or a compromise.
She Slaps Old Man, But
It Wasn't an Offense
Among the small defendants in June
juvenile court to-day was a 14-year
old Highspire girl whom an aged
neighbor accused of slapping him in
the face. It developed that he called
her a "redhead" and that her "face
would stop a clock."
"Did you call her a redhead?" asked
counsel for the child of C. M. Bow
ers, plaintiff.
"Take off her hat and see for your
self," said Bowers.
The child has a wealth of bright red
hair. She was discharged and both
she and Bowers were cautioned about
their future behavior.
The usual sob and smile stories were
told during the day and some of the
small defendants were placed in the
care of Mrs. Elsie V. Middleton, of
the Children's Aid Society, Mre. Sim
onetti, the probation officer, or to var
ious children's homes or corrective in
stitutions.

ALCOHOL SAID TO BE CAUSE

Women's Illness Another
Doctor States
By Associated Press
Indianapolis, Ind., June 19.—Al
cohol is the chief cause of insanity,
according to Dr. T. D. Adlerman, a
specialist in nervous and mental dis
ease, of New York, who in addressing
the National Eclectic Medical Associa
tion here yesterday declared that the
United States is rapidly progressing
towards the stage where it will be one
large insane asylum.
"We have practically become known
as a nervous nation," said Dr. Adler
man. "We rush and hurry, turning
night into day, and we hurry the body
to decay with tobacco, alcohol, drugs,
sexual excesses and abuses. We must
stop this disastorus rush and headlong
hurry.
"Alcohol creates more insanity than
all other causes combined. Where it
is not the initial cause, it Is the de
veloping cause. In the United States
to-day, there are 250.000 insane, and
the same number of feeble minded
which exceeds the combined strength
of the urmy and navy.
' There is an answer to this condi
tion and it is in safe and sane eugen
ics. The world must see to it that
there is a great evolution of character
in men and women. There should be
laws to prevent the propagation of de
fectives, to prevent marriage between
feeble minded and insane. There is
nothing for us doctors to do except
to become ardent advocates of eugen
ics."
Dr. M. A. Carricker, of Nebraska

Craft Will Be Taken to Lake Keuka
Tomorrow Morning For
Trial Flight
By Associated Press
New York, June 19.—The aeroplane
now building for Rodman Wanamaker
In which an attempt will be made to
cross the Atlantic ocean will carry
three pilots, according to announce
ment to-day. Lieutenant John C.
Porte, of the British navy, who has
been selected by Mr. Wanamaker to
attempt the flight, will have Aviator
Hallst in the flying boat with him
from New Foundland to the Azores
Islands, where the lirst stop will bo
made. At the Azores it is planned to
pick up John Lansing Callan.
The distance from St. Johns, N*. F.,
to th islands Is 1,199 miles, and Lieu
tenant Porte reckons that he can do it
In twenty hours. The consumption of
gasoline on the flight to the Azores
will lighten the load to such an exten\
that Callan's weight will make no dif
ference.
Lieutenant Porte said to-day that li€
thought the craft could be taken to
Lake Keuka Saturday morning. It
will require four hours to assemble
the machine, according to Porte, and
the launching will take place Saturday
morning, if the present plans do not
