U. S. Will Be Prepared to Meet
Any Possible Strike

Washington-In order to be fully
prepared for any demand that might
be made upon it in the present indus
trial situation, the War department is
rechecking the occupational qualifica.
tions Of the enlisted men of the army
and compiling information for
quick possible in the event that fed
eral troops are called upon for duty
in the coal or rail strikes and are re-
quested to advise officials here how
many men have experience in rail-
road work, and in what particular
branch of the railroad service each is
competent.
Thus far no requests for federal
troops have been received by the de-
partment, but Secretary Weeks has
taken the position that should re-
quest come he should be prepared i'm
mediately to place all pertinent infor'
nation before the President.
The order regarding qualifications
of enlisted men in railroad work was
said to be based wholly upon this de
sire for preparedness and to indicate
no change of policy on the part of the
federal government.

a terrible fall in the void.
And this reminds one Of the charm.

Mrs. Dingle was filed with nervous
alarms whenever she Travelled, and Mr..
Dingle always had his hands full in
trying to quiet and reassure her.
"Albert," said Mrs. Dingle, waking
her husband from sound sleep in a
southern railway car. "Albert! want
you to find out why we are going ut
this fearful speed. The car is humping
and swaying till can scarcely see out
of my eyes,"
Mr.. Dingle sat up and looked out Of
the window at the moonlit landscape.
"See that bridge ahead on the
curve?" he asked sleepily. 'Well, we
have to 60 over that in minute, and
probably it isn't very strong and they
want to 60 over it with as little strain
and as quickly as possible. Now go

ROADS PROPOSE POLICIES
Loree Maintains His Stand Against

New York-Preliminary to the ses-
sion of the Association of Railway
Executives when members will vote
their attitude toward proposals Of the
big Four" brotherhoods for ending
the shop crafts strike, the Eastern

meeting to formulate a policy for its

What action the Eastern group,
which includes several of the most
powerful lines, will pursue was not in

serting they had been pledged to
secrecy. The only comemnt was made

ference who issued statement set

which normally employ 161,339 shop
men, had brought their forces up to rs
per cent of that figure on August 18.
This represented an increase of 2.5
per cent over the week of August II.
| Roads represented were those which
led the opposition when the national
body Of rail chiefs rejected Harding's
two proposals for ending the strike by
submitting the seniority issue to the
Railroad Labor board.
Mr.. Loree saying that he spoke for
himself alone, made the following
statement:
"You can quote me as saying stand
solidly against any surrender and it is
a surrender on the part of the roads
to give back the strikers seniority

INCOME TAX FACTS

Changes in the revenue law are of material benefit to the average fam fly man. Under the revenue act of 1921 a married person, living with wife or husband, whose net income for 1921 was $5,000 or less, is allowed personal exemption of $2,5OO. Un- der the revenue act of 1918 the ex- emption allowed a married person was $2,00O, regardless of the amount of net income.
 The normal tax rate is the same, 4 per cent on the first $4,000 of net in come above the exemptions, and 8 per cent on the remaining net income. Given his personal exemption of 3D. 500, plus $400 for each dependent, a married man with three childlen-the average American family-will pay this year on net income of $4,000 a tax of SIP. On the same income for 1921 he would have paid a tax of $56.
 Every citizen and resident of the United States must determine for him. self whether his income for 1921 was sufficient to require that a return be filed. Full instructions for making out a return are contained on the forms, a copy of which will be sent to taxpayers who filed a return last year. Failure to receive a return, however, does not relieve a taxpayer of his obligation to file a return on time, on or before March 15, 1922. Forms may be obtained from collec- tors of internal revenue and branch offices.
