(rnlted Press by Radio) LONDON, March 16. The Duke of Windsor's hopes of obtaining governmental money were believed smashed tonight as Parliament studied King George VI's request for a new civil list. The King indicated clearly he expected to receive revenues from the Duchy of Cornwall himself. Of that sum, he would give a portion to Princess Elizabeth and the Duke of Gloucester. He did riot mention former King Edward.

In event Edward loses revenues from the duchy, it will be the first time in a century they not gone to the King's eldest son. However, King George requested that Parliament consider the possibility of a birth of a son to the King and Queen.

CM) DIAMOND RINGS $35 UP EGHOLM'S 117 S. KING ST. By STEPHEN LAROCHE Cnitd Press Staff Correspondent) HEND A YE, Trench-Spanish Frontier, March 16 An official communique tonight said Loyalists had cracked rebel line northeast of Madrid and captured Val de Arenas. The Loyalists announcement said they had forced the rebels to retreat along the Madrid-Soria highway and had taken several prisoners and quantities of war materials. Positions gained were consolidated immediately in preparation for a possible rebel counter-attack.

ITALIANS CUT OFF Earlier today, uncensored dispatches from the frontier said Gen Jose Mia ja's Loyalist international brigadiers had isolated a large body of Italian soldiers fighting for the rebels. One dispatch said 500 trucks and an army supply train were marooned at Brihuega, facing a stiff Loyalist attack. Loyalist planes and artillery were reported to have started an intense bombardment of the town. Headquarters at Brihuega are under command of Gen. Jose Mos-cardo, hero of the rebel defense of the historic Alcazar in Toledo.

WITH RINGS IN THEIR NOSES Aerial warfare spread along the entire northeastern front. Loyalists bombed motorized nationalist columns in the vicinity of Ledanca and Almadrones. A new international complication was reported today when Loyalist commanders asserted Italian Somaliland natives, wearing the Askari uniforms familiar during the Italo-Ethiopian war, had appeared on the southern Madrid front. Officers said the newcomers wore rings in their noses, and apparently had arrived but recently from Africa. would turn down the proposition anyway.

It is passed along merely as one of those dreams that taxpayers may enjoy at this time of the year between this struggles with the schedules and the sub-paragraphs. Unlike the Indians on the reservations, these wards of the government also have a voice in the government. In fact, they are the government, for they include all the governors, mayors, aldermen, state legislators, prosecutors, and, of course, tax collectors. Another writer suggests, to be consistent, the law should enlarge the exemption to remit all taxes on public servants. The theory behind their income-tax exemptions holds that this tax, in their case, amounts to a reduction in pay.

It amounts to the same thing for other citizens, but, for some reason which remains unclear to your correspondent, the public employe is deemed to be a special case. I So, if he is exempt from the income tax then he should also be exempt from taxes on his home, gasoline taxes, sales tax and automobile license taxes which also have the effect of reducing his contrary to the beautiful theory of exemption. This idea probably will receive a cordial hearing from the 5.000,000 and odd. Indeed, considering the number and the political vigor of the public employe, this one may be joyously adopted and strongly agitated as soon as it is understood. Perhaps it is necessary to pause again here and explain how these exemptions work.

The Federal employes, estimated at 831,000 must pay the Federal income tax in their respective brackets, but need not pay the state tax which, in some cases, is equal to the Federal. All state, county and municipal employes, estimated at 4,981,000 are exempt from the Federal income tax which means that most of them are entirely exempt. Most states have no state income tax and even in states which have it, the public employe has "pull." Then there is a special class of exempts known as the constitutional officers of the states who do not pay either Federal or state tax. These are mostly high-salaried officers and in New York they include the governor at $25,000 a year and many judges at from $15,000 to $22,500 a year. The Federal employes get away with the least, of course.

If their home states have no income tax they get no exemption, for they pay the Federal assessment on the same level with their fellow citizens. President Roosevelt, however, as a Federal officer, does not have to pay the New York income tax on his salary, although he resides at Hyde Park, N. Y. The figures are now beginning to take rough shape and it may be possible soon to give some idea of the amount of money that the state officers and employes, including the minor jurisdictions: are getting away with, thanks to an unguarded and subsequently distorted phrase in a Supreme Court decision handed down more than a hundred years ago. Present estimate's indicate that state payrolls of $3,500,000 a year do not pay a dime of Federal income tax.

Some of this amount would be exempt anyway, for many of the salaries are in the low brackets. However, a payroll of that size would be sure to yield important returns but for the class exemptions and your correspondent here leaves you to meditate on the possible amount remembering of course that there are vast numbers receiving from $2,500 to $25,000. aaaaaBaiBBaBBaBBBaBmMtsawBBBaLi Sir Austen Chamberlain Succumbs At 73 1 1 7 0ur First Complete Shipment i Q'ttino. fha Qtrllr Miner Colburn Called By Death Native Honolulan Was In City-County Service After an illness of several weeks, Miner Colburn, 3467 Maunaloa avenue, Kaimuki, did at the Queen's hospital at 3:30 p.m. yesterday.

BITTOS'BPfcl0flTBS aT (Tramradlo Press) LONDON, March 16 The father of the Locarno treaty, Sir Austen Chamberlain, died this evening at the age of 73 years. Sir Austen supported the plan for creation of the Irish Free State, and was a staunch proponent of the League of Nations.

It was largely "through his influence that the five-power Locarno treaty was negotiated in 1925 in an effort to pave the way for admission of Germany to the League of Nations. Chamberlain entered public life in 1895 as civil lord of the admiralty. As chancellor of the exchequer in 1919 he fought for the policy of imperial preference in the British empire. The policy finally formed the basis of the Ottawa agreements now in force between the members of the British commonwealth. Chamberlain had been a member of parliament since 1914, but had not been a member of the government, since he was First Lord of the Admiralty in 1931.
