Length of the fibres is very i'm
portant factor in determining the
grade and market price of asbestos.
The value is also dependent upon
the fineness of the fibers, the tenn
perature at which they fuse, their
1exiility, and their tensile strength.
If fibre one-half inch in length,
which is worth $1400 to $4,000 per
ton, were broken in half the result
ing material might be worth only
$110 to $3.50 PEI ton.
The fibrous structure, toughness
incombustibility and low heat con-
ductivity are the properties that
make asbestos valuable. The most
important way in which asbestos is
utilized is as yarn or thread used in
the manufacture of many types OF

No known substance can be salts

highest grades can be used for such
purposes. Material consisting of
shorter or less flexible fibers is used

CHAOS WOULD RESULT

The public schools take a vaca-
tion of three months every year and
nothing happens.
The police force and fire depart
ment go on their annual picnics and,
balls and things run along as usual.
The city paving isn't improved
over long periods, or the public Ii
brary may close or the public parks
allowed to go to ruin and the public
isn't injured.
But let the electric lights go out
Tor few hours and there is actual
suffering and much crime. Let the
water works stop and soon there
are parched tongues and disease.
Let the telephone suspend and there
is chaos and loss of business. Let
transportation in a city stop and
thousands are thrown out of work
and the hardship is intense. Turn
out the gas and we go back fifty
years in our civilization Well sus-
tained public utilities mean a happy
and prosperous community. They
pay taxes while politicians increase
the burdens.

The governor states that, despite, the fact that ample facilities were pro- Nided for dissatisfied taxpayers to ap- peal to the courts, comparatively few such appeals have been made. He. att tributes the agitation against tax burdens" and "confiscation of prop~ erty" to the selfishness of the we'll to-do and the "demagogy of the political microbe." To the suggestion that the expenses of the state govern menu be'cut down he replies that tax payers do not contribute penny to these expenses. The cost of the legis- lative, executive and judicial depart ments is paii with revenues derived from the labor of state convicts and the license taxes of foreign corpora tions.

 party, fights for the liberation of Hel- lerism and for expulsion of the Turk from Europe.
 The allies who fought the greatest of all wars for the right of the small peoples and for the maintenance of the principle of lf-determination have denied the Greeks the right to elect their rulers, and thus the pres ent Greek regime is still unrecognized by the great powers, and also. curious ly enough, by America, which ought to show better attitude towards the votes of sovereign people.
 Greece, while struggling in Asia Minor, is financially boycotted by the allies, and even hampered in her movements against Turkey Her offi- cial allies are also the unofficial allies of the Turk; allied flags cover the cortrahard ammunition that goes to Mustafa Renal from Italy and France, while Greek destroyers are forbidden to patrol the shores of the Black sea and the Aegean. Allied money, sup piled by the heavily burdened French ani Italian taxpayer, go to the sup port of the butchers of Armenia; French cannon supplied originally to Baron Wrangel are being passed to the Turkish armies, while soviet Rus sia congl atulates France in the person of her protege. Kemal Pasha, the lead CT of Angora.
 Italian steamers by the score are unloading their cargoes in the har- bors of New Ephesus and Ponto- heracleia and Adalia, while French, am nutrition, until recently used by French troops against the Turk in Silicia, is donated to the ex-enemy to strengthen him against the Hellenic army
 A lying and slandering propaganda is working overtime in Constantinopie and on the European continent in or der to undermine the morale of the Greek nation and to break the back mary successes are given the charac- ter of great triumphs against Hellas once mt~e fighting for the liberty of her sons and for the preservation of our civilization in the near east.
 Such is the character of the Hellenic campaign in Asia Minor. It is the fight of 2. gallant people who con tinues the struggle against the obscene and barbarous Turk, not only for the liberation of those territories and populations that are essentially Greek but for the breaking of that dark power, whose downfall will mean a new day in the lives of all the peo- ples of the Levant
 It is this fight that Greece is carry ing alone, while her own allies assist the blood stained Turk. And 1t is these same allies who are after the money of the American taxpayer in order to give more encouragement and more arms to the most barbarous and most irhuman and most unspeakabIe race that ever cursed with it's presence and remains to the present day as the greatest living insult to decency and civilization.

KEEP GOING!

Everybody expects 1921 10 be pros
porous year, but that is no reason why
anyone should slacken his efforts.
That is one thing that should be avoid
ed.
The situation calls for energetic and
persevering production on the part of
all people, regardless of how great or
how humble their station in life may be.
We cannot expect great prosperity to
come to us if we leave the burden
of production to few, nor can we
expect confidence to be maintained if
idleness and shiftlessness prevail where
thrift and energy are possible.
We have reached the crest of our
wave of depression which follows ev-
cry great war, and are descending safe
ly on the other side.
What we want to do now is to keep
going until we float into the harbor OF
commercial sanity and permanent pros
perity.
Production, conservation and the
square deal in business will get us
there.

$4,000 Tax
Exemption
Two Hundred Dollar Exemption
Allowed for Dependents Under l8

Single persons, though required to
file return il their net income for
1920 was 81, 900 or more, are, if they
are the heads of families, granted
special exemption under the revenue
laws. Such person is defined by
Treasury regulations as "a person who
actually supports and maintains in one
household one or more individuals who
are closely connected with him by
blood relationship, relationship by
marriage or by adoption, and whose
right to exercise family control and
provide for these dependent individuals
is based upon some moral or legal
obligation" Such persons are allowed
the exemption OF $1,000 granted mar
ried person. In addition, they are al
lowed a credit OF $500 for each de-
pendent under IS years of age or in
capable of self-support because men,
tally or physically defective.
HUSBAND AND WIFE
A married person living with hus-
band and wife can not claim an addi-
tional 81, 900 exemption as the head of
family. His or her exemption is
based upon The marital status, ire
spective of the support of others living
in the same household. The additional
5000 credit for dependents does not
apply to the husband or wife of a tax
payer. For example, if married man
supports father who is incapable of
self-support, he is entitled to the 5000
credit for such person. If through
force of circumstances he supports his
wife away from home he is entitled to
the $1,000 exemption allowed a mar
ried person, but not to 5000 credit for
dependent.
A son who has left home but who
sends his mother more than one-half
the sum required for her support is
entitled to the 5000 credit, provided the
mother can not support herself. Other
wise, the amount must be considered
as gift, and, therefore, the credit is
not allowed. A son living at home and
supporting his father, mother, or other
relative may claim the $1,000 exemp-
tiou allowed the head OF a family, but
not the 5000 credit unless such relative
is under Is years of age or incapable
of self-support.

First Dry Year
Ends Jan. Is
Commissioner Kramer Saws
People Are Recovering
From HANGOVER"

AS the first year of national prohibi-
tion ended Saturday, Prohibition Com
missioner Kramer declared the Ameri-
can people were rapidly recovering
from their chang. He believes
they have begun to taper off their
liquor drinking.
Although liquor, some of it good but
much of it bad, still is obtainable in
large quantities, the head of the prohi-
bition corps believes the first years
work has brought large measure of
success. He had expected it to be
hardest both for the law enforcing staff
and those who were deprived of their
beverages.
In the future, the commissioner said,
enforcement of the law should become
increasingly easier while thos who used
to put foot on the brass rail should
gradually become reconciled to the sa-
loonless era.
'In our first year." said Mr.. Kramer,
eve have seen the private stocks alb
sorbed like lakes in the desert. We
have raided and prosecuted. We be-
lieve we have made life unpleasant for
the bootlegger and other traffickers in
whiskey. 1t has been a difficult and
sometimes dangerous job, yet those of
us who have been on the job itself can
see changes for the better"
Records of the prohibition bureau
show that fewer dealers are seeking
permits to engage fegitimately in the
businesn of handling liquor next year.
Many of them, DR.. Kramer said knew
in advance they would be refused be-
cause they had "taken chance" with
the law.
From Jan. 16, 1920, to Nov. 80,
1920, there were "a, 469 persons arrest
ed for violation of the national prohibi-
ton law.
The number recommended for prose-
cution was %, $50.
There were 1885, gallons of spirits
seized and destroyed and 1884 gal
Ions seized and not destroyed.
There were 100000 gallons of
liquor withdrawn from bonded ware
houses.
