Device Softens Hard Water of
CITY Mains

A machine for softening hard
water has been presented to the
chemical engineering depart
ment of the University of Wis.
consin by a New York manu-
featuring company to illustrate
the possibility of using such a
machine in the household instead
OF a cistern and complicated
pumping and reservoir system.
The machine occupies a floor
space of about II square inches,
stands about z feet high, and
contains a patented chemical
which softens the water. When
the chemical becomes weak. it
lis regenerated by adding a
solution of common salt. Hard
water from the city mains is
passed through the chemical
where it is softened, and the
soft water may be drawn from a
faucet at any place desired.

The income tax was declared cor.
stitutional Monday by the supreme
court in an unanimous decision which
swept aside every contention raised
against it and, in the opinion of con-
gressional leaders, opened the way
for increasing the tax rate on great
fortunes to help pay for national de-
fense. Proposals are pending in
congress to tax incomes of more
than 81 100000 as high as so per
cent. Leaders on all sides agree
that out of the impetus which the
decision will give such proposals, is
likely to come a definite movement
to levy on the revenues from great
private fortunes for some of the
millions the government must raise
to carry out the army and navy in
creases.
