NO ACTION WAS
TAKENBY JURY
Investigate Alleged Tam
pering .With Witnesses in
Arbuckle Case.
San Francisco, Sept. 20. The county
grand jury early today adjourned until
next Monday night its investigation of
alleged tampering with . prosecution
witnesses in the case of Roscoe (Fatty)
Arbuckle, film comedian, held in jail in
j connection with the death of Miss
J Virginia Rappe, film actress. The
grand jury, it is said, also heard the
testimony of Dr.r William Rumwell,
who is alleged to have performed an
autopsy on Miss Rappe. No action
was taken.
Liquor served by Arbuckle at his
party is,, to be the subject of investiga
tion by a "United States district court
grand jury.
Robert H. McCormack, assistant
United States district attorney for the
prosecution of liquor cases, announced
witnesses would be called who were
guests at the alleged revel. McCormack
will not, he said, seek indictments at
this time, waiting until other Federal
officials have completed investigations
now going on in the motion picture
colonies of Los Angeles and Holly
wood. INVESTIGATE "SOURCES."
The Federal attorney intimated seven
or more persons were under investiga
tion. He has examined numerous wit
nesses, but he refused to make their
names public. At the resumption of
the investigation by the grand jury last
night. Dr. Rumwell, physician to Miss
Rappe during her fatal illness, was call
ed to explain why an autopsy had been
performed following her death without
request being made by county officials
as required by law.
Miss Joyce Clarke and Regy Morely
and Dr. Gabor Kingstone were called.
District Attorney Brady said, in con
nection with a report intimating pos
sible financial interest of witnesses in
the trial.
At the conclusion of the session.
District Attorney Brady issued a state
ment in which he declared that it had
been disclosed that these three wit
nesses had discussed the probability of
"making money out of the Arbuckle
case by 'framing' Miss Joyce Clark to
impeach the testimony of Mi3s Zen
Provost, an important prosecution witness."
HOUSE TAX BILL
BEING PREPARED
Will Be Presented to the
Senate Wednesday Upon
Ending of Recess.
Washington, Sept. 20. The House
tax bill, as. amended by the Senate fi
nance committee, was being whipped in
to shape today for presentation tomor
row when the Senate reconvenes after
its recess of a month. The measure
will be pressed as soon as the busi
ness of the Senate will permit and
Chairman Penrose expects it to be sent
to the President by the latter part of
next month.
Repeal of the excess profits tax and
reduction of the maximum income sur
tax rate from 65 per cent to 32 per
cent are the provisions expected to
draw fire from the opposition on the
Senate floor. Democratic leaders hope
to marshal their forces solidly against
those proposals and they count on sup
port from the Republican side.
Opposition also is promised against
the Senate committee provision to con
tinue the freight and passenger taxes
for the calendar year of 1922 at half the
present rates. The House voted to
eliminate all of these levies and some
members of the ways and meaiis com
mittee expect to insist upon their full
repeal as of next January 1, should
the Senate vote to retain them.
A number of amendments to the com
mittee measure are to be offered on the
floor and some Senators look for ex
tended 'debate, particularly on the manu
facturers sales tax plan to be present
ed, by Senator Smoot, of Utah, a Re
publican member of the committee, and
the whiskey tax amendment which Sen
ator Calder, of New York, has given
notice he will present.
Senator Penrose does not expect any
serious delay m consideration of the
bill and is of the opinion that it can
be passed after two-weeks' debate. He
is not certain now when it will be pos
sible lo get it before the Senate, but
says he will press for its consideration
as soon as possible.
SITE GIVEN FOR
FRESH AIR CAMP
Tubercular Hospital Will be
Situated on Old Water
works Property.
Transfer of 30 acres of the old water
works property to the Mecklenburg Anti-Tubercular
Association by the city
commissioners virtually completes all
the preliminary steps toward the fitting
up of a new hospital just off the States
ville road for the care .of the indigent
sick and the tubercular-infected of the
city and the county.
The city commissioners are expected
at some later date to make an appropri
ation of $10,000 to the institution to
measure up to what the county com
missioners have done in the way of of-

BREVARD STREET
REVIVAL CLOSES
"How can we escape being discovered
in sin?" was a question asked by
Rev. L. D. Thompson in his . closing
revival sermon at Brevard ' Street
Methodist church Monday night. Tho
services have been in progress at the
church for the past 10 days.
"A Startling Question" was the sub
ject of Mr. Thompson's last sermon.
It is impossible to escape eternal
punishment if the salvation of God
through the blood of Jesus Christ is
neglected, he declared.
It is easy to neglect salvation, said
the speaker, but it is fatal. Salva
tion is great because it provides pardon
for sinners, it is great in its expen
siveness. in that it cost God his Son,
Jesus Christ. It is great in its inex
pensiveness, in that it costs the sinner
nothing. Jesus paid the whole debt.

Charlotte, N. C.
fering immediate financial support to
this institution.
The promoters of this enterprise stat
ed Tuesday that it would require about
540,000 eventually to complete plans
now in their minds, but architects are
drawing specifications now for build
ings which may, for the present, be
sufficient to accommodate the number
of tuberculars most desperately in, need
of attention.
If the city makes an appropriation of
$10,000 to add to the $10,000 appropriat
ed by the county commissioners, the as
sociation will have at hand half of the
amount it thinks will be needed. It is
proposed to solicit a public subscrip
tion of $20,000 to complement the capi
tal necessary. The fact that the city
has made such a substantial gift in the
way of grounds relieved, the association
of a big expense in the acquirement of
suitable property.
In addition to the appropriation made
by the county, the commissioners also
have agreed to the employment of a
whole-time health officer as well as two
nurses to superintend the hospital.
The site on which the tubercular
camp will be located is regarded as un
usually well fitted for, this purpose.
It embraces the municipal property on
which the old water works was located
prior to the completion of the new plant
and the running of a water line to the
Catawba river. It is juat off the States
ville road, only two miles from the city,
and so situated that it will easily lend
itself to the development which the tu
bercular association has in mind.

It isn't likely that you'll buy a kitchen cabinet often. The cabinet you
select now will probably serve many years. (A McDougall is good for a
lifetime.) It is needless to say, then, that you should make every effort to
select the best cabinet the first time.
"But how am I to know?" you ask. "What makes the best cabinet?"
Not mere materials, labor and a factory but experience, invention, in
genuity in designing the cabinet to serve the useful purpose for which
it is sold.
The first was a McDougall built over a quarter of a century ago.
Steadfast improvements through all these years assure you of having the
most useful.and serviceable cabinet in a McDougall. No ppg builds them so
well nor so beautifully. s
Our men like to demonstrate these cabinets. Come see them. The
Auto-Front is a patented convenience found only on McDougalls. The
eight steel corner braces in the base are exclusively McDougall con
struction. See the sanitary, metal flour bin, the metal bread and
cake drawer; they come out for a scalding and a sun-bath. Look at the
damage proof snow white Porceliron work table. We'll look for you soon.
