INCOME TAX
NOT LIKED IN
SO. AMERICA
j
BUENOS AIRES, Sept. 24 (by As
sociated Press).—Protest against the
assessment of the United States in
come and excess profits tax upon Am
erican citizens and business firms re
siding and operating abroad is voiced
in a resolution adopted by the chamber
of commerce of the United States in
Argentina and sent to the government
at Washington. Amendment to the
law is asked on the ground that it is
proving an obstacle to the develop
^ ment and extension of United States
foreign commerce.
Collection of the tax not only in
creases the heavy expenses of Amer
^^cans residing abroad, but constitutes
a serious handicap to them in trade
competition, the resolution states,
since no such tax is collected from the
nationals of other countries. It is
further pointed out that American cit
izens and business houses must pay
heavy taxes levied by the country in
which they are located and are thus
taxed twice without representation
either in the government of that coun
try or their own.
Already the assessment of the ex
cess profits and income tax has caused
many American business interests, op
erating abroad to change their idenity
by organizing as concerns of the coun
try where they conduct business, it is
asserted, “thus causing a serious loss
to the prestige of American commerce
in foreign markets.”
It is contended that when relative
high cost of living and other disadvan
tages incurred by foreign residence
are considered, incomes abroad that
appear large are not really so in com
parison with those paid in the United
States, and the collection of the tax
upon them tends to make foreign resi
dence and business operation finan
cially disadvantageous.
WAR HEROES
WE BE THE
HONOR GUESTS
CLEVELAND, O.. Sept. 24 (by As
sociated Press).—Fifty-four Americans
still living of the 78 who were awarded
congressional medals of honor in the
world war—the highest military hon
or that can be bestowed on an Am
erican soldier—have been invited by
the Cleveland convention committee
as its guests of honor at the second
national convention of the American
Legion to be held here September 27,
28 and 29. All their expenses will be
paid by the committee.
Enough of the 54 have already ex
cepted the invitation to assure the suc
cess of the first reunion ever held of
the country’s highest honor men.
It is proposed to have the medal of
honor men form a permanent organiza
tion while they are here.
“As the outstanding heroes of the
American Expeditionary Force these
54 men, whose deeds of conspicuous
gallantry won for them the congress
ional medal, will be treated royally
here,” said Colonel C. C. Chambers,
general convention chairman. “The
bravery citation of each man stands
out like a beacon light in American
heroism.”

SUCCESS OF THE!
MARSON FAMILY
'
♦
.
—An Inspiration
I '
When the Marsons purchased their little 5-acre farm less than three years
ago, their capital consisted of a few hundred dollars, plus an abundance of pluck
and determination.
Today their modem poultry houses contain many hundred thoroughbred
White Leghorn hens, each producing its daily quota of the big tri-weekly ship
ment of new laid eggs that go to one of Seattle’s leading cafes. Promptly Uncle
Sam’s faithful mail carrier brings back a handsome check from the cater
er who gladly pays a premium for the superior Alderwood Manor eggs.
The picture tells the story: The modem home with its well kept lawn, veg
etable and berry garden, up-to-date poultry plant, is one of the most attractive
in the wonderful Alderwood Manor district.
Mrs. Marson keenly enjoys looking after the chickens and gathering the
eggs, while Mr. Marson continues to work at his trade, for the Marsons are
thrifty folks who believe in “team work”; combining their efforts now that they
may live a life of ease in their declining years.
Modern methods and a strict accounting system have proved to Mrs. Mar
son that each laying hen produces better than two dollars net profit each vear.
(Take a pencil and figure out what the 1,500 hens that can be kept on 5
acres under the Alderwood Manor plan would produce you). Are you making
$3,000 a year in your present position?
Are you willing to grasp a big opportunity? Does Independence, with plenty
and to spare appeal to you?
}
The Puget Mill Company, an old responsible concern that has played a big
part in the inidustrial development of the state of Washington, starting way
back in 1853, established the wonderful Alderwood Manor poultry district, just
outside the great city of Seattle, three years ago. Today thousands of Seattle
folks own little 5-acre farms out there, more than 350 homes and poultry plants
have already been built and are now occupied by men and women who point with
pride to their success. It is the most remarkable, most practicable development
of its kind in America.
The wonderful $200,000.00 Alderwood Demonstration Farm and Poultry Col
lege, where a staff of skilled experts teach (free) those who desire to follow mod
ern methods in poultry raising, home gardening, fruit and berry culture is the
center around which the greatest poultry community in the United States is be
ing built.
Wouldn’t you like to live in the finest climate in the world where there is
never extreme heat or cold, seldom snows in the winter? Where you can view the
beautiful snow-capped mountains from porch or window and only a few minute’s
drive from beautiful lakes and shores of Puget Sound? And Seattle, the chief
seaport city of the Pacific coast, but 45 minutes from your home? Where vou
can make an independent living on 5 acres of land—with a strong company back
of you always ready to extend financial assistance.
If you are interested in knowing all about Alderwood Manor; in learning
how the Puget Mill Company will help you to own 5 acres of rich soil that will
produce a bigger income with less effort than you can ever hope to earn on the
payroll, write for the complete story of Alderwood Manor and the New Life of
the Land. It’s free for the asking.
