Unsigned Bank Notes Tossed Away as Joke Backfires
Springfield, Sept. 22. William F. Souci, foreman of a bridge construction crew, admitted the joke was on him after he learned the unsigned National bank notes totaling about 2000 dollars were negotiable. The bills, found in a bridge pier being razed, were part of a 10000 dollar lot believed stolen en route from Washington to western Massachusetts banks. Souci and two co workers had amused themselves throwing the bills into the street for days as people scrambled for them.

Real beer tax proposed to finance soldiers' bonus
Representative Brennan, a Republican from Michigan, introduces a joint resolution to amend the Ferberg constitution to allow a nationwide beer tax of 20 cents per gallon. The revenue would fund a soldiers' bonus and include a national referendum on the proposal. Brennan argues the amendment is the most sensible method to finance veterans' bonuses and modify Prohibition-era constraints.
