CONDEMN STORES
IN FACTORIES
Co-operative stores started by fac
tories came in for discussion at the
annual state outing of retail butch
ers and grocers held at Iake wm-
pounce yesterday. ;
During the afternoon, a lunch was
served and an informal business
meeting , held. "William Cowlishaw
of New Britain, who was one of the
Connecticut delegates to the national
convention, gave an interesting re
p&rt and told the views of the retail
grocers about" the co-operative stores
started by factories and other large
employers . of labor. It was said
that the convention held the"" view
that factories are encroaching upon
grocers, butchers and storekeepers
w'ho pay rent, taxes and other ex
penses and do a legitimate business.
It was pointedout that this com
petition is cutting deeply into the bus
iness of stores which have enjoyed
a large patronage of factory em
ployees. The state meeting approved these
views, as Vas shown by brief expres
sions of opinions from visitors from
all parts of the state. It is consid
ered as likely that when the state
association holds its regular business
convention some action may be taken
against further encroachments by
these co-operative stores.
BLAME EMPEROR
FOR COLLAPSE OF
, AUSTRIAN TROOPS
VieShna, Aug. 19. Chief blame for
the collapse of .the Austrian forces
on the Piave river, in the Austro
Italian campaign, ' is placed on the
former Emperor Carl by the report
of a commission appointed to investi
gate war delinquencies.
On the fateful November 2, 1918,
the report says, the then Emperor
issued three conflicting orders within
a few hours. The first, was for the
conclusion of an armistice." Forty
minutes later this was revoked and
95 minutes afterwards' it was issued
again. v During this period, it was
safd, the Emperor consulted no one
on the matter. - '
"We must ask," the - report says.
"whether the Emperor and his ad
visors were not guided by the fear of
the army flooding back on Vienna
rather than by any other circum
stances. It may be, perhaps, not
by express intention but rather sub
consciously, that the desire, prevailed
with more than one of these men
that' -the troops had better not, return
home at all"

and took--an active part in the prof

RULES TO COVER
COUNT RULE ON
STOCK DIVIDENDS
Washin'gton. An. 18. 'A rutins- was
banded down today by Paul V. Myers,
Aotlng Commissioner of Internal Rev
nue, which is Intended to meet the
"Supreme Court decision in the' case
of Eisner vs. Macomber, in which the
court held that stock dividends were
no a taxable Income. The Govern
ment maintains in the ruline; its po
sition that, under certain conditions
the tax attaches even in the case of
stock dividends.
The ruling, whk4i was addressed to
to co lectors of Internal Revenue and
Others concerned Js as follows:
'Stock received as a dividend does
not constitute taxable income to the
tookholder, tmt any profit derived toy
the stockholder from the sale of such
etock is taxable income to him. For
the purpose of ascertaining the fiain or
loss derived from the sale of such
jttocflc, or from the sale of the stock
with respect to which it is assueo;, xne
cost (used to include also, here re-
ruired, the fair market value as of
(March 1, 1913) of both the old. and
1 new shares is to Ibe determined in ac
fcordance with the following rules:
' " (1) Where the stock issued as a
dividend is all of substantially the
Uame character or preference as the
Letock upon which the stock dividend
w paid, the cost 01 eacn snare ox ootn
the old and new stock will be the
quotient of the cost, or fair market
Value- as of March 1, 1913, if acquired
rrior to that date, of the old shares
jof stock, divided by the total number
I of the old and new shares.
I (2) Where the stock issued as a
l-vidend is in whole or in part of a
character or preference materially
Ldiff erent from the stock upon which
'the toak dividend is paid, cost, or
I fair market value as of March 1, 1913,
J tf acquired prior to that date, of the
I old shares of stock shall ibe divided be
I trween such old stock and the new
I fetodk, or classes of new stock, in pro
tportion, as nearly as may toe, to the
(respective values of each class of
! stock, old and new, at the time 'the
'.new shares of etock are issued, and
(the cost of each share of stock will
the quotient of the cost of the class
to whicih such shares belongs divided
,'by the number of shares in that
iciass.
(3) Where the stock with respect
to which a stock dividend is issued
was purchased at different times, and
bat different prices and the identity
(of the lots cannot be determined, any
I sale of the original stock will be
charged to the earlier purchase of
stocks (See Article 39,) and any sale
of dividend stock issued with respect
.to such stock will (be presumed to have
been made from the stock issued with
J respect to the earliest purchased stock
to the amount of the dividend charge
a!ble to such stock."
