and Mary opens a summer school at

Mexico and an American college, of-!
ficials have declared.

idea. A group of students, under the
guidance of C. E. Gastaneda, of the
Spanish department of the college,
will spend six weeks in Mexico City.
Regular courses in English subjects

Cigarettes Find Favor
With Italian Smokers
—
ROME, Mar. 30.—(AP).—Italian ci
garettes and tobacco are now on sale ;
in all the markets of the world, j
while the consumption and sale in 1
Italy of home-produced smoking ar-1
tides are increasing by leaps and j
bounds, according to a report of the j
governmental tobacco monopoly.
Throughout Italy it is stated that
there is a growing tendancy to aban
don cigar smoking in favor of cigar
ette smoking and since imported
cigarettes are quite expensive, the
Italian monopoly is reaping the bene- ;
fit o^' change in smokers’ tastes, i
}”’ dtioji of the average in-!

Farm Products of Indians

WASHINGTON. Mar. 30.—(AP).—
The little lad who has a weakness
for war paint, feathers and Indian
tales may lake hear* at the Indian
bureau's announcement, lhat there
n • s>ill 345,Oh : r.f-? pihjcval
.A ••CncP.ns in (.»’•• !a . t
The attention of the Sixty-ninth
Congress will be called to the fact
that, unless the national lawmakers
make other provisions, the period
of government wardship in the five
civilized tribes will expire in 1031.
There are about 17,000 Indians under
Federal supervision in the five civi
lized tribes and over tlie country the
bureau of Indian affairs has 200,000
“restricted” Indians, who are super
vised.
The Indians themselves, Indian
| Bureau officials say, are anxious to
have the restriction extended, as they
desire government guardianship to
conserve their lands.
Under the June 1924 law, all na
tive born Indians are now citizens
of the United States, many of whom
are under wardship. There are 190
tribes of Indians now in the coun
try, many of them being small
groups.
The number of Indian children in
schools, the health appropriations by
congress, Indian hospitals and the
value of farm products raised by
those citizens have materially in
creased in the past decade. Farm
ing and stock raising have developed
appreciably among the Indians and
large sums of money are being spent
by the government on irrigation proj
ects on their lands, the Indians be
ing the country’s first irrigationists.
The Navajo Indians in particular
are great sheep raisers, their wom
en being noted weavers of blankets.
RIVIERA SHOWS SPRING COLORS
MONTE CARLO, Mar. 30.— (AP).
—Advanced original spring colors for
women's dress, which have appeared
along the Riviera, include oatmeal
and a fresh leaf green. These two are
the most popular of all the early
spring shades which have been seen
here and at Nice, and they have been
used effectively separately and to
gether. Some of the smarter suit
ings worn by the younger set con
tain trimmings suggestive in color
of the richest cream.

Gasoline and Tobacco
Come Cheap in Texarkana
LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Mar. 30.—
(AP).—While the other people of
Arkansas pay four cents tax on ev
ery package of cigarettes they smoke,
four cents a gallon on every gallon
of gasoline and ten cents a gallon
on motor oil burned in their auto
mobiles, the city of Texarkana is
“sitting pretty.”
Texarkana, over on the southwest-,
ern border of Arkansas, with part
of the city in Texas and part in Ar
kansas, does not have to pay the cig
arette and tobacco tax, and pays
only one cent a gallon on gasoline.
Even the remainder of Miller coun
ty, in which the Arkansas city is
located, must pay the taxes.
The state of Texas does not levy
a tobacco tax and levies only one
cent a gallon on gasoline. As a re
sult, when the tobacco and gasoline
tax laws were passed Texarkana was
exempted from their provisions. It
was provided, however, that when
ever the state of Texas adopted such
tax laws they also should apply to
Texarkana.
