bankers. lawyers and many others in
the financial district to attempt to fig
ure out which particular individuals
these might be. says the New York
Times The result was that when the
names that had been suggested were
combined in one list it contained a
good many more than forty-fOur.
Some surprise was expressed that
only forty-four names appeared on the
treasury departments records when 1t
was realized that fortune of but $780,

are Il good many persons in New York
alone who are popularity supposed to
be worth $2O.OOO.OOO or $25. 1000. 900.
Big Taxpayers Can't Dodge.
Nobody took the view that any who
actually had an income Of S1.OOOOOO
had concealed the fact by comprOmis,
ing with his conscience In making q
return or had failed to make return
at all. because they would be too con.
spicuOus marks for the attention Of
the special agents of the treasury de-
partment. who are and have been for
some time on the lookout for income
tax dodgers.
The view that prevails in the inter
nal revenue service also is that what
ever tax lodging has taken place has
been on the part of persons with com.
paratively small Incomes. many Of
them just over the line Of the $4,000
exemption.
One point that was brought up was
that many men who had large means
invested In stocks and bonds and
would readily be put in the $4,000. 900

doubt was expressed that William

COLONIAL DESIGNS"
FOR MOTOR CARS NOW

Wherever one goes nowadays. Wheth-
er IL is in the mol Of city streets or
through the quiet restfulness Of wind
ing country roads, one comes upon au-
tomobiles with bodies Of colonial de-
sign. The banker, rolling over asphalt
streets to his office: the crossroads
grocer, humping over the newly turn
piked highway TO the county seat; the
surgeon and the telephone repair man,
may be found riding in them. In short
cars so designed have caught on"
If you were to be asked why you
thought the colonial idea was so highly
regarded. what would you say" asked
Don c. McCord- general manager OF an
automobile factory. IF the question
were put to me, would reply that the
word, colonial, is indissolubly assOcf-
ated in my mind with comfort just as
the expression, two fingers always
brings up to me the sWimming-pOol
sign Of my boyhOod days. It is com
fort that person wishes in an auto
mobile more than any other one fea-
ture and the fact that purchasers prefer
cars Of colonial design above others
leads me to believe that Il spells com
fort to them Just as it does to me.
How car following a Gothic de-
sign would lOoki The peaks and an
giles would not make It appear very
comfortable and fancy few would
choose it to ride in They might mag
inc those points would be gouging into
them II the going was rough, no mat
ter how we'll upholstered the body
might be- The design probably would
give a suggestion OF beauty, but along
with II would be one OF discomfort
which would effectually prevent its be-
ing wanted as a conveyance"

KEEP TIRES AT
FULL PRESSURE

There seems to be an idea prevalent
among many tire users that a tire is
not damaged by lack Of sufficient infla-
ton, unless the pressure is so low that
the casing assumes a 1attened appear
ance.
This is a mistake" he says. with
every decrease in the air pressure with
in a tire the bending of the walls OF
the tire increases and the friction and
heating increases in proportion Thus
some injury is sure to result from IN
der initiation, regardless Of the extent
or duration Of the condition.
eff you strike a stone with an under
inflated tire the tire is more liable to
break than if il had sufficient air. but
some injury is caused even if this does
not happen. For this reason we are
very careful to recommend proper in
fation of tires to our customers as a
help to reduce tire bills"

BUYS $50
AUTOS EVERY DAY

Automobiles are being sold in Indiana this
summer at the rate Of $50 day, as shown
by the calls for licenses at the office OF the
secretary Of state
The licenses issued for Indiana owned ma
chimes so far this year number 53.511- The
number OF new machines being sold IS be-
lieved to be considerably larger than year
ago, though there is no way to make an
accurate comparison because the new auto
mobile law, providing for annual regisrra-
tion. has not been in effect long enough
While many autos are being delivered to
buyers in the cities. the biggest percent Of
the $50 machines sold daily is going to tbs
rural districts and the small towns.
The records show there are $50 dealers en-
gagged in the sale Of automobiles In Indiana.
Motorcycles sold numbered 1887 There are
E250 licensed chauffeurs in the state. Calls
for transfer Of licenses. made where sec
ond nand machines are sold. are being made
at the rate OF from two TO y day.
