timated by former Director Genera
Hines, according to an estimate by
Director General Davis. ~,
The director general made his esti
mate in the course of a report to Chair
man Good of the House appropriations
committee on the progress made by
the Railroad administration in liquidat
ing claims arising out Of Federal con
troll ~"
Loss About $soo,47s,7se.
Former Director General Hines es'
timated the loss to the government
in operation during the period of Fed.
eral control would be 5000 ,478, 756, Mr.
Davis said. Because of claims not
considered by Mr.. Hines which have
arisen, he added, and the underesti.
mate made in the allowance for main.
tenance, fire losses, additions and bet
terme1ts made solely for war pur-
poses, and other accounts, it is the es-
innate of the present director general
that the operating loss to the ad.
ministration will be about $1,000, 000,.

Supreme Court May Decide.
Differences between the administra-
ton and the carriers as to the liability
of the government for under main.
tenance during Federal control,
amounting to several hundred million
dollars, may be carried to the Supreme
court for final adjustment, the report
said. .s.t =, ="
1t was estimated that when all the
carriers have filed their under-main-
tenance claims they will aggregate be-
tween $700,0O0,000 and $S00,000,000.
The report showed that the Rail-
road administration had assets aggre.
eating $430,930.13S.0S, consisting Of
negotiable obligations of the carriers,
such as equipment, trust obligations
and notes and bonds taken by the
administration during Federal con-
troll.
Roads Slow in Filing. ...,>
Delay In settling claims has been
caused chiefly by the slowness Of the
roads in filing their claims, the report
said. Up to the present time 149 Of
the 555 roads taken over have filed
their claims, representing 58.5 per
cent Of the entire mileage, excluding
short lines. <%>!'E-

Importance of the complexities Of

rector general said in his report.
1.-The property was operated under
the abnormal conditions of World
war. The demand for labor and ma
terials in all industrial enterprises was
greatly in excess of the supply. In
the effort to combine this stupendous
aggregate Of Independent lines into a
single and co-ordinating concern much
OF the operating property of individual
carriers was inextricably inter-
mingled" ~

PAsNIK TO MANUFACTURE
 PATENTED SALT SHAKER

Alex NJ. Pasnik of this city has recent ly been granted patent on an improved salt shaker, and within the near future expects to start the manufacture of his Invention. Several years ago MT. Pasnik saw the need of moisture proof shaker and shaker that discharges from the bottom rather than the top With this idea in mind. MT. Pasnik set to work und has now an article that meets all the requirements.
 The accompanying drawings show the shaker and it's mechanical operation. The drawings are of actual size. The exterior of the shaker is of glass with white metal pr aluminium top and mechanism. To dis charge the salt from the shaker, one has only to push the plunger, No. II in Fig. 2, this opens the outlet in the bottom and the salt is sifted out as desired according to the pressure on the plunger. To pre- moisture, there is moisture proof wash CT in the bottom or which fits the plunger. There is also a grinder that will grind up small Jumps that are frequently found in salt To refill the shake all that is necessary to do is to remove the top No. IT, and place in the salt.
 Mir. Pasnik feels that his invention will fill Q long felt need and has already se- cured figures on the glass work for the sides and base of the shaker as well as price on the metal work. The shaker will 1 be assembled in Norwich and each article will bear the word Norwich" on it. MT l Pasnik is also considering extensive ad vertising throughout this country and ir l Europe.

WHEN S52 MEANT SOMETHING TO SOLONS

Harrison, Ark, Jan. 1s.-There was time In the history of the United States Whsn $52, representing a years loss or wayiRg to members of congress, was a vital factor in the consideration or proposed moving of the seat of govern rnent and, according to an officer of that same congress. s52 a year was no trfAiAg consideration.
 This bit of history is contained in letter written by Charles Thomson, sec retary of the Continental congress during the several years of its existence, to his wife, Hannah. an aunt of President Will liam Henry Harrison. The letter is dated Princeton Aug 21. 17S3, the congress then, being in session in the New Jersey t6Wn, and was addressed to Mrs. Thom- son. corner of Spruce and Fourth St., Philadelphia"
 It was proposed that the residence of congress be removed to Elizabethtown. N. T., but, according to the letter, there was opposition on the ground that lodging in Elizabethtown would cost S4 week, whereas it could be obtained for $3 a week in Princeton. Whether the "high cost of living" in Elizabethtown finally @xayed the congress in rejecting it is not disclosed, but history records that the eenkress met in Annapolis, Md, after leaving Princeton, and at no time sat at Elizabethtown.
 5The letter, in part, which recently came inte the possession of Mrs. Rex Worth inkton of Harrison, a descendant of MT. Thomson, follows: Dear Hannah:-
 .,.T have received your letters dated Monday F o'clock and Tuesday 10 o'clock at night and acknowledged the receipt of them. Mir. Rend was misinform- ed respecting the adjournment. They met -Oa Monday but they might as well have adjourned till this time for any business

they have done. l. am very apprehen- sive that nothing but some calamity will awaken the states to sense of their sit situation. . !
 . The president of the con gress has not provided house for himself nor is it likely he will find one here to suit him. I find Elizabethtown has been talked of at his table as a proper place for residence of congress. He has house there which he says has twenty rooms
 and which he will let for the use of the president. It is true the place iA infested
 with mosquitoes in summer and lying low and near marshes may be liable to inter
 mittents in the spring and fall, but these are trifling when it is considered that by fixing the residence of congress there the
 value of his estate will be increased and he will have an opportunity of letting his house at a good rent. But yet 1 am in clined to believe this will be opposed by his colleagues for MT. Condit has found a lodging in this town at three dollars a week which enables him to lay up money
 And there is reason to fear that'at Eliza bethtown whirh is so near New York, it will cost him at least four. This would ! be clear loss of $52 a year, which is no trif1ing consideration, and which l dare
 say will have due weight with some oth-
 CTS. There are 2 CT weighty considefa- tions which might be mentioned

 That is, if in 1918 a corporation se- lected the cost basis of taking it's in- yentory, for every year thereafter it was provided that +Ae inventory should be taken at cost If the cost or market basis was accepted. then for every year thereafter it was provided that the cor poration should take its inventory at the cost or market, whichever is lower, ba- sis.
 'The recent treasury decision based on the present business situation has chang ed this, however, and again has given corporations an opportunity to change their opinion on the value of their in. ventories for 192O. Whichever basis is now adopted must be applied to the en. tire inventory.

Exneet. 1000, 900 Returns.

The period for filing returns for the calendar year 1920 is from Jan. 1 to March 15, 1921. The bureau of internal revenue estimates that within this period there will be filed 4,000,000 individual in
 come tax returns. It is certain a per centage of these returns will be incorrect. not because of the dishonest intent on
 the part of the taxpayer, but because of
 error in making out the forms. Erro-
 neous interpretation of the law and regu-
 lations governing the collection of the income tax and carelessness. cause nu- merous mistakes, and result in the ini- tial assessment and collection of con- , siderably greater or lesser amounts than are actually due. Frequently these mis- takes result in overpayment return of which is made upon a claim for refund 1 Where, upon verifcation and audit, un- derpayments are shown, taxpayers as a
 rule are prepared promptly to amend their returns and pay the additional tax
 due. Hi either event there is trouble ; for both the taxpayer and the govern i me1t.
