Urged by Police Heads F ~stival Manager The Association of Police Chiefs of Northern Cook county is taking action to install a county-wide radio hookup of police stations and squad cars with the central police broadcasting station of Chicago. The radio experiment was tried out over WGN for several months and proved such a success that a station of low wave length for exclusive police use is now being built. According to Chief Freeman, president of the association, plans are now being completed to hold an inter-city police pistol tournament with cups as prizes for the department making the best score on the targets. He appointed a committee Monday night to make the final arrangements and it was instructed to report :back at the next meeting of the association which wilt be held in Tessville January 16. The association is also forming tentative plans for a benefit police field meet in which all Cook county police departments will be invited to compete, or to sponsor and sell tickets for a professional circus. cutive committee and everyone officially . connected with the Festival association are delighted that he has accepte~. Mr. Voegeli without doubt is the leading impr~sario in Chicago and few men in the country have had equal experience in the business phase .o f concert work. His relations with Dr. Frederick Stock and the Chicago orchestra are assets that our Festival association is fortunate to acquire and from which we have reason to feel we shall greatly profit." Gas Tax Revenue Throughout U. S. Is Up 30 Percent Receipts from the gasoline tax throughout the United States in 1929 will total approximately $400,940,000, or about 30 percent more than the total in 1928, when $304,771,776 was collected, according to a bulletin issued by the Chicago Motor club. The statement is based on data compiled by the research department of the American Automobile association. Illinois motorists, it estimates, would pay some $11,000,000, while the car owners of the neighboring states, Indiana and Wisconsin, would contribute $15,000,000 and $7,335,000, respectively. The large increase for this year may be attributed to the fact that Massachusetts passed a gas tax law which became effective January 1, 1929; N~w York also adopted a tax, which took effect May 1, and Illinois passed a similar law, effective August 1. Twenty states increased the rate of tax this year, and increased consumption of gasoline is also a factor in the in creased collection s. Three states now have a tax of six cents per gallon. The \Vomen of the Rotary club will have a bridge party at their monthly luncheon on \Vedncsday, at 12 o'clock, at the Hotel Sherman.

Believe Appointment Is Fortunate President Stevens and the executive committees upon whom the responsibility of engaging a new business man ager rested this year, are enthusiastic over the cngagirw of Mr. Voegeli because of his professional experience and importance in the musical world. He succeeds John H. Hilton, long-time treasurer of the Festival association, and business manager for four years, who asked at the close of the last festival to be relieved of the duties of both treasurer and business manager. Parke Simmons was elected treasurer at the annual meeting. With the engaging of Mr. Voegeli as business manager, preparations have taken a great stride forward for the 22nd annual festival. He has already assumed his duties ·and is this week visiting in New York to consult music agencies and take preliminary steps for the engaging of artists. To Engage Artists H1s duties will include direction or' all business details, most important of which will be the engaging of artists and directing the publicity in cooperation with executive and program committees.
