INCOME TAX MUST
Be PAID BY
APRIL |
SELVES LIABLE TO HEAVY
PENALTY

SAN FRANCISCO, Mar. %. =
In sounding a final warning to the
thousands Of persons who are put
ting off until the eleventh hour the
filing of their income tax returns
Collector of Internal Revenue JUS
tus s.. Wardell said today that these
taxpayers were not only making it
inconvenient for themselves but
we're actually working a serious
hardship on the government at this
critical time.
There are comparatively few
business days between now and
Monday, April 1, the last day al
lowed by law for reporting federal
income liability" said Collector
T'ardell. q regret to state that
there are close to 100, 900 individ-
uals In the first California district
affected by the new income tax law
who have thus far failed to respond
to its requirements.
This NEAR that returns from
row until April 1 must come in
at the rate of about 1000 a day.
If the people respond at once to
this extremely urgent situation they
will not only be protecting them
selves from heavy penalties for ne
elect or evasion, but will be help
ing the government at this time
when there is such an urgent and
constant need Of tax returns"
The internal revenue men are now
completing a tour of the district
If you have failed to get In touch
with the deputy in your locality, 1t
is not too late, is the collectors ad-
vice. Consult your postmaster as
to where the nearest deputy Is 10Y
He will given you all necessary in

NEvADA'S SHIPPING
QUOTA NOW FILLED
MEN WHO HAVE REGISTERED
MAY CONTINUE REGULAR
WORK

Nevada's quota of $50 men for
work in the U. S. shipyards has been
passed with a total enrolment of
391 men, and enrollments are still
being received.
1t is impossible to say now just
when a man may expect to be called.
The largest government s~hipyards
are getting in shape to need many
new men, but they will be called
gradually from time to time, as con-
ditions warrant. Meanwhile, those
who have enrolled "a remain at
work with the satisfaction of know
ing that they have periodically Of
fered their services to the country.
Enrolment is purely voluntary.
1t makes men available for notifi-
cation if and when needed for i'm
portant and patriotic work.
The government considers ship
building so important that men of
draft age who are actually at work
in a shipyard are placed in a defer
red class, but the government does
not change the classification of a
man who has only enrolled for
shipbuilding.

MANGANESE OUTPUT
BEING AUGMENTED
INDUSTRY AT LAS VEGAS AS
SUMES IMPORTANT PRO-
PORTIONS

The work of trucking the ore of
the Manganese Association to the
railroad is now going along in fine
shape. During the past week sew
eral of the new trucks ordered by
James eastman have arrived and
the daily tonnage hauled to the rail-
road is now about two hundred
tons. With the improved roads now
under construction and the appli-
cation of gravel, which latter por-
ton of the work it IL hoped will
soon be under way, and by additions
to the fleet of motor trucks, the
daily shipments will DOR reach the
200-mark.
1t has been necessary for the
company to open the mine and build
loading purposes, in order to keep
the trucks moving without delays.
This work is now practically COM
pleted and everything moving
smoothly.
Several would-be purchasers OF
the properties have been in town
during the past week, as we'll as
the numerous agents for the pur-
chase of manganese ore. The i'm
petus to local business caused by
the rapid development of the man
ganese mines, has been very mark

ONE MORE TO ARMY
EDGAR M. ERB WILL ENLIST IN
S10TH REGIMENT OF
ENGINEERS

A telegram from the colonel of
the 319th regiment of engineers at
Camp Fremont, Cal, was received
this morning by the exemption
board, asking the board to send a
transfer for Edgar M. Erb to a San
Francisco board for his induction
into the regiment.
Erb, who has been employed in
the office of the Charles S. Sprague
Brokerage company, left here for
the coast Monday morning. When
recruiting officers from the 319th
we're here a short time ago Erb be-
came interested in their PROPOSE
ton and the telegram received this
morning indicates that he has now
accepted it.
If Erb, who enters the 319th, and
S. A. McCandless, who is now on his
way to San Francisco to enlist, are
both accepted, they will be the third
and fourth respectively to join the
army from the office of the Charles
S. Sprague Brokerage company, as
Peter j. Somers and Munro Brown
enlisted some time ago.
This is an enviable record for a
business house and means hat of
seven men connected with the COM
pany, five are in the national ser
vice, as j. K. Turner, mining engin-
eer for the Sprague companies,
represents the mining interests of
the state on the Nevada district
draft exemption board.
Charles S. Sprague is head of the
Goldfield chapter of the Red Cross
and an earnest worker in war activ-
tiles in the town. Wherever posi-
BILE his companies have contributed
literally to war work and the pat
riotism of the boss evidently has in
fected the men in his employ.

Woman Ends Life

Mrs. George Noel, wife of a mill
man employed at the Packard mine,

dying in a Lovelock hospital. Ac-
cording to information received from
Packard, Mrs. Noel's husband found
her at home in company with an as
sayer at 2 o'clock in the morning
and Immediately packed his personal
effects and left the house. The wo-
man then threatened to end her life.
Not long after she drank iodine and
at noon shot herself in the abdomen.
Mrs. Noel was formerly a waitress in

Second Explosion Victim Dead

Vincent Silva, who was severely in
at Tonopah a few days ago when
Charles Roberts, with whom he was
workire, picked into a missed hole.
has died as a result of his injuries.
Silva, with one eye destroyed and
terribly injured about the face and
body, made his way for 100 feet
from the face of the drift in which
he had been working in the shaft
and reached the surface to tell what
had happened. Internal injuries
that he received caused his death.

CALL FOR BOOKS
IS BIG SUCCESS
1000 BEING COL
LECTED

1t is believed before Goldfield
people are through contributing
books In the campaign started a
few days ago to provide 400 books
for soldiers libraries that fully
1000 will be in the hands of w. H.
Weslar, superintendent of schools,
who has charge Of the campaign
here.
Superintendent Weslar said this
morning that the response to his
call had been more than generous
and had surpassed his most san
guine expectations. More than $50
books have already been collected
and several hundred more are in
homes, from where they will be
token in the next few days by
school pupils.
French was a few years ago a
subject taught in the high-school
and all the text books, which are
in the school library and which
should prove of value in the train
ing camps, will be among the books
shipped.
German was also taught and the
text books are still in the school
library, where they will remain, as
Professor Weslar does not believe
they would be appreciated by the
soldiers in their present frame Of
mind.

Farmers Hoard Wheat

w. ]. Percival, manager OF the
Elko Milling company, who was call
ed to Reno last week by the food
administration, declared on his re-
turn to Elko that he had positive In
formation that between 1000 and
5000 sacks of wheat are being
boarded by farmers in Elko county.
There can be but two reasons for
their action he said. lone is that
they are holding the grain for a
higher price and the other is that
they are in effect pro-Germans In
refusing to give the government
what it so urgently demands"

GOLD MOUNTAIN

PAIRING FOR EXTENSIVE
DEVELOPMENT

1t Is impossible on brief survey
to attain any ADEQUATE idea of what
is being accomplished in the Gold
Mountain section NJ the Tonopah
mining district, wnicn Las come in
to the limelight wi hin the past sew
eral weeks. 1t promises to make a
suburban camp to Tonopah that will
require the building of a trolley line
in the near future, according to the
opinions of certain people who are
not generally regarded as foolishly
optimistic. At all events there will
be five hoists in operation before
the end of the month, with others
in contemplation.
The Tonopah Divide leads in in
terest, as 1t was the original dis
covery. Drifts are being run on
the 265 level and the huge vein is
still holding out. The values are
all milling and partly shipping
across about As feet. This is for
the silver and gold content alone.

mum, which is so plentiful in the
ore. Another lift is to be sunk.
Additional machinery has been in
stalled.
Equipment has been purchased
for the Julius Goldsmith property.
Charles Kielhofer and associates
are getting an excellent showing.
The Gold Zone has purchased and
Is installing a plant of machinery.
Its acreage already has been extern
sively developed. William Taylor
and associates expect to get to work
at once on the Mammoth group,
which adjoins the Divide.
Kendall, Cooper and associates
are making the dirt fly on the Dr.
vide Extension. Their shaft is To-
Gated within 700 feet of that of
the Divide and they are going after
the ledge as fast as three shifts
can do the york.
The Brougher property will also
be extensively developed. That is
the one recently purchased by H.
Cal Brougher from Messrs. Grimes
and Hanson.
One of the most promising pro-
perties in the district is the Has
brouck. 1t has a quantity of ship
ping ore and a vast tonnage of mill
ore in sight. Shipments have been
made from time to time to the
West End mill in Tonopah and a
good extraction has been had. The
property was recently reorganized
and additional valuable ground was
taken in. A plan Of development
has been worked out that is expect
ed to make this one of the most i'm
portant producers in the district

SAVED SOLDIER FOR FRANCE.
Sympathy Of American Red Cross

Courage to Downcast Poilu.

Forbes Watson, driving an ambu.
lance in France, dropped into one Of
the canteens which the American Red
Cross is operating in France one eve
ming, he says in the Red Cross Maya
zine
Opposite me was a Poilu with the
saddest face I have ever seen. He
spoke to no, one. Some personal loss
hung over him, too poignant for me to
approach. He took away his bowl for
some more coffee, and at q counter
which had become little less con-
gested saw him In conversation with
one Of the American women. He talk
ed to her as he never would have
talked to man, because she knew
how to talk to him. Later asked her
his story. He had lost four brothers
in the war, the youngest recently.
1.-Two weeks later he wrote her q
letter telling her that her sympathy
had torn apart the black veil that
seemed to have settled down forever
between him and life. And he wrote
simply to thank her for having given
him back the courage to go on. .vive
PUnion Franco-Americaine!' he wrote.
Was it an exaggeration to say that
these American Red Cross women are
the front ranks of our diplomacy?"
