Union leaders and mine officials, are

said the idleness was due entirely
to the refusal OF union miners to
accept wage reduction OF so to 81
per cent which became effective yes
terday. Mine officials said that while
some OF the inactivity was due to
q walkout, much OF il was due to a
curtailment OF operations made ne

Safety Lamp Post Springs
Up After Knocked Down

Chicago, Sept. 3.-Enter now the
spring lamp post-a preventive, SO
its inventor claims, of many auto
mobile wrecks.
In the old days when lamp posts
were the main support of certain
gentlemen in the early hours of the
morning, a spring lamp post, OF
course, would have been out of the
question. But today it is different.
When an automobile hits this safety
post, which was invented by c. c.
Veneman, of Chicago, the post bends,
allowing the auto to pass over it
without serious injury. Then the
spring will pull the post back to its
upright position.

U. S. Experts Point Way to
Avert Sogginess in Pies

Washington, Sept. 3.-Cheer up,
you housewives, who have had un-
expected difficulties with juicy pies
owing to their tendency to become
soggy. Specialists in the expert
mental kitchens of the Federal De-
partment of Agriculture have found,
in the course of pastry-baking ex-
periments, that if the undercrust is
prebaked until slightly brown the
pies will be much better. ..
Another point brought out in con-
nection with pastry baking, especial
ly in warm weather, is that speed
in handling is an important factor
if the housewife does not wish her
dough to become soft and conse-
quently difficult to roll and lift. :.

Income Tax
Facts You
Should KnOU
PROMPT ACTION URGED.

The bureau of internal revenue
urges taxpayers not to delay in the
filing of their returns, and to pay the
tax, if possible, in full at the date
of filing, or in as few installments as
POSSIBLE. BY far the greater num-
Der of taxpayers whose income for
the year 1919 was less than $4,000
paid in full when filing their returns
in 1920. The nunnber of such tax
payers was approximately 3,14o,00o,
while only 10000 took advantage of
the installment plan. The number of
taxpayers with incomes in excess of
$4,000 paying in full at the time of
filing their returns in 1920 was ap-
proximately $4,000, and the number
making payments under the install
ment plan was approximately $4,000.
Payment of the tax may be made by
cash, money order, or check. Checks
and money orders should be made out
to Collector of Internal Revenue"
The bureau advises that payment be
made by either check or money order,
as this method saves a trip to the
collectors office and .insures avoidance
of congestion during the closing days
of the tax-filing period.
