 roo MANY PEOPLE NEGLECT THE AFTER EFFECTS OF COLDS. THEY SHOULD CONTINUE TO USE LlNONINE UNTIL THEIR HEAETH IS FULLY RESTORED.
 There isn't another medicine in the whole world that ONERCOktES BRONCHIAL COUGHS as quickly and thoroughly as Linonine does.

ELDER CHECKING
UP INCOME TAX
Revenue Collector Indicates
Indiana Will Show Slump.

Clerks in the office Of Collector of In
ternal Revenue William L. Elder were
checking up today to see how many tax
payers are delinquent In the payment
Of income, excess profits and other Fed
eral levies, the last 1920 tnstallment OF
which was due yesterday. Reports from
many large cities indicated that hum
dreds of citizens have found 1t iInpos-
sible to raise enough ready cash to meet
the last quarterly obligation and that
they were forced to go delinquent.
Mr. Elder said several persons had
asked whether or not they could be
granted an extension OF time, but in
each instance they were refused and told
that the only power to extend such IA
vor lies with the Treasury Department
in Washington. The general tendency in
Indiana was to get the money to avoid
paying the heavy penalties for delin-
quency, the collector stated.
The Governments attitude generally
has been TO have little sympathy for per
sons who plead for an extension OF time
on income and excess profits tax beyond
the final quarterly payment date, he said,
for the reason that the taxes really are
due on March Is, of each year and the
provision that payment may be made in
FOUR lnSCallmenIS, laAllnK Que every tHIeS
months thereafter, is a convenience to the
taxpayer The theory Of the Government
is that enough should be saved out Of
the income of the previous year, which
is that on which the tax is levied, to pay
the tax when it is due.
In New York City, Collector big Bill
Edwards stated that he believed $4,000
600 Of the 500. 900 due In the New
York district would be defaulted because
hundreds of individuals and corporations
were unable to meet their payments.
Practically every one OF the individ-
uals defaulting possesses enormous prop
erty interests, while most of the corpo-
rations are doing a big business, but they
simply are cash poor at this particular
time" Edwards explained, according to
Mr.. Elder.
Mr.. Elder said he did not believe tax
payers in Indiana were in quite as bad
shape as this, but that 1t would require
a check OF the final receipts TO tell ac-
curately.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-The admin
istrative powers Of the Interstate Com
merce Commission to fix interstate pas

are overturned by the highest court, the
States which have refused to raise In
trastate rates to a level to meet the
higher interstate schedules ordered By
tn Interstate commission are Utah, iii.
nois, Florida. Nebraska, Indiana, Ofio

REPORTS GAIN IN
COAL SITUATION
Operators Association Sees
Relief in Fuel Shortage.
snsciaI TO The Times.


TERRE HAUTE. Ind. Dec. 2o.-The
coal situation in Indiana is rapidly I'm.
proving, according to a statement issued
by the Indiana Bituminous Coal Opera
tors Association.
The statement says;
Reports received here during the last
week indicate that the domestic coal sit
uation In all the territory served by In
diana mines is being rapidly relieved ant
coal dealers are able to get all the ruet
they want. This is particularly true In
indiana, where the injunction granted
by the United States District Court In
favor of the Vandalia Coal Company and
the Vigo Products Company and en-
joining the State food and fuel commits
mission from interfering with their busl-
ness, has resulted in the diversion Of
tremendous amount Of coal, that for
merly was forced out OF the State into
the bins of Indiana retailers. Figures
compiled by the Indiana Coal Trade Blu
reau for the United States Geological
Survey show that for the week ending
Dec. II, there were shipped into Indiana
for domestic use 1877 cars Of coal. as
against 1.102 cars for the week ending
Nov. IS.
asThere also was q slight increase for
AShe week ending Dec. IL over the week
ending Nov Is in the amount OF coal
taken by the railroads, but there was
decrease in the amount Of coal used lot
steam purposes. The total shipments
into Indiana for the week ending Dec
IL exclusive Of the Chicago switching
district were $500 cars, while for the
week ending Nov. Is the same district
received 4.935 cars. The biggest Increase,
Of course. was in the amount OF domes
tie coal shipped. but there was an IN
crease Of a little over 200 cars In the
amount Of fuel shipped to public utlii-
ties. This indicates that a little over
half of the coal mined in Indiana Is
going into the State. The total ship
Iuents for the week ending Dec. IL were
I2.4T4 cars. Other States received less
coal from Indiana mines for the week
ending Dec IL than they did during the
week ending Nov. Is. The demand fer
steam coal has been much less urgent
thana it was a month ago, but lumi
coal, particularly the grade suitable Tor
domestic use, is finding ready market
In some instances at much lower prices
than recently prevailed"
