In the West he's "Bill." But In official Washington he'* William Marion
Jardine, secretary of agriculture, a member of President Coolldge's official
"family." Secretary Jardine has been Invited to attend the Chicago Roundup
and World s Championship Rodeo, to be held for nine days, beginning August
IS. Those who know him say that he will be on hand for this greatest of
all cowboy contests, as Secretary Jardine has not lost the spirit of the
West where, years ago, he rode the range and punched cattle with the best
•f them.
Back In Idaho they like to tell how the secretary of agriculture busted
bronchos and threw a rope. They're proud of their "Bill" and they're willing
to wager that he could ride Into the nrena at the Chicago Rodeo and make
gome of the expert cowhands hustle for honors. The competitions will be
held under the direction of Tex Austin for the
orld's championship titles,
belts and trophies and $30.000, the largest cash purses paid auywhere.

to make a real fight for election. She
made many political speeches and sur

she rolled up votes on merit—enough
to win handsomely.
It is true that of the seven women

any w'ay distinguished herself. How

DEATH TAXES AS
BUSINESS KILLERS
Assistant Treasury Secretary
Tells Fable of Fate of Two
Successful Men.
Men cannot be expected to continue
to work, day after day. increasing the
productiveness of this country and
benefiting others. If they know that
on death the major portion of their
earnings win bo dissipated In Federal
estate and state Inheritance taxes, de
clares Charles S. Dewey, Assistant
Secretary of the Treasury. In the
American Bankers Association Jour
nal. He says:
"I ara going to relate a fable In
terras of modern business condltions.
lohn Henry and Walter Brown were
aggressive, hard-working men, anu
each had started business for himself
"At the time this history opens.
John Henry had Just died, leaving his
entire estate to his son, John Henry.
Jr., and had appointed his old friend.
Walter Brown, as executor. Prior to
his death John Henry had moved to
California, leaving his business In the
hands of his son under whom It had
continued to make excellent headway
The father had been doing a little
speculating In oil. This venture had
not proved successful and he was In
debted in the sum of 1500,000.
"Executor Walter' Brown, on exami
nation of the estate, found the follow
ing situation:
Capital stock (if Henry A Co.,
Inc., a Michigan .'Corin' .
Personal debts due hanks
"Walter Brown soon made the un
pleasant discovery that In addition -to
the personal Indebtedness of »500,000.
and administration expenses of »250,
000 , the following death duties must
be paid;
Federal estate tax .
California Inheritance tax
Michigan Inheritance tax

"Added to the personal debt and ad
ministration expenses, this made a
grand total IHAHIty of »1,955,200
The year was 1920. Money was tight.
Other m&nnfaoturlng companies In the
same line which might have been In
terested In a purchase had no money
for extensions nor were the hanks In
a position to handle a loan of this
type. Here was & most successful
business, built up from small begin
nings by one man and carried on to
further successes by his son. about to
be placed under the hammer.
"Is there any justice In taxation that
may force a man and his family to
lose the fruits of his entire life's labor,
and permit others to benefit? As a last
resort, Henry. Jr., was forced Into a
bond issue. A loan, to settle the
debts, administration expenses and
death duties, of $2,850,000 was nego
tiated, upon the following basis:
"The capital stock of the company
was left at 16,000.000 represented by
50,000 shares. First mortgage 8 per
cent bonds were offered the public
with a bonus of two shares of stock
with each »1.000 bond. The banker,
to protect his bond customers, kept
30,000 shares to assure control of
management, and John Henry, Jr., re
celved the balance of 15,600 shares.
John now has a good Job as general
manager of his father's old company,
but they do not pay him very much.
"Now we must return to Walter
Brown, executor of John Henry, Sr.
Waiter had always kept close to his
own manufacturing business The
more he considered his own situation,
the more closely It seemed to him to
resemble that of his old friend.
"He therefore called a lawyer and
made a complete schedule of hts as
sets. requesting that aa estimate of
administration expense* and death
duttaa be made. The schedule of as
set* was aa follows;

"On this basis the estate suffered a
reduction from $5,500,000 to approxl
mately »3,674.000. thus wiping out all
assets except thi, corporate stock and
placing a heavy .oan ov, that.
Brown had one son and. as he thought
of John Henry, Jr, tolling away with
little hope of opportunity he deter
mined that he would not subject his
own son to the same tribulations.
"Boom times having come, there
was no difficulty obtaining a pur
chaser for Walter Brown & Co, and
the California real estate was sold at
a good price. The whole was Invested
In tax-exempt bonds wÜlch yielded a
ver? safe return of about 4% per cent.
Walter Brown then moved hts legal
residence to the more friendly climate
of Florida, where state inheritance
and Income taxes are forbidden.
"The country suffers by the loss of
effort which Walter Brown might have
continued to expend under a more In
telligent system of taxation. We must
reform the tax system In such a way
that business and Industry shall not
be hampered. We must make sure
that American citizens shall not be
deprived of the Incentive to work and
accumulate and that thfs country shall
not cease to be a land of opportunity.
A tax system which discourages Ini
tlatlve cannot be the right system for
America.* .— -

The New Franklins are appearing on the roàd as
fast as the factory can build them. But not as
fast as they are being ordered by people who like
fine things. Those who saw de Causse's great
custom-built pattern cars all said they would
prove a sensation. But few anticipated the actaal
response they have aroused. It shows that ap
preciation of style is instinctive. ..That everyone
wants quality. And that Franklin performance
is known and respected from coast to^ coast.
