SHEARER'S INCOME
 TAX INVESTIGATED

 That He Never Filed

Washington, Oct. tP>-Agents of the internal revenue bureau are in vestigating income tax returns of William B. Shearer, naval propa- gandist
 They want all the facts under lying testimony he gave the senate committee Investigating his actions at the 1927 Geneva naval limita- tions confrence as an employe of shipbuilders.
 Replying to a question while tes- tfying, he said he had not paid in come taxes and contended the S51.- 230 received by him from the ship builders over a period of a little more than two years was to meet his expenses and could not be con- sidered as salary
 While the bureau is prohibited by laW from giving out any in formation concerning income tax returns, it operates on the broa principle of always Investigating in- come tax r0turns Of any person against whom charges have been
 made or which come to it's atten- i ton.

 Hitherto thousands of young men Sat all day in cafes composing songs. They not only arranged the songs, hut also defined the districts of the city each man was to cover.

HARDER METALS
 SHORTLY PRODUCED
Combinations Stronger than at
 Present Are Promised

Cleveland, Oct Cp-MetaIs. dia- nond-hard. and l0 10 15 times as strong as those now used. are visu- aljzod by Dr. Hay JcGrics, of Cleve- land, noted mctallurcist and presi- dent of the American Society for Steel Treating.
 Strength of metals is being grad uaIjy increased by tho new insight into metallic structure given by the N-ray's picture of "atomic society" 5nd other modern analytical meth ods. Dr. Jeffries says.
 Tungsten, for example. assumes a strength Of G5o.ooo pounds to the square inch when drawn out into a wire Oue-thouSauth of an inch in diameter. Glass drawn to the same small diameter, increases in tensile strength from )5ooo pounds to 4g2,- 00o,
 Research has revealed that tensile strength and hardness of metals can be increased if the crystal particles of which they are constructed are made a5 small as possible, with faces of crystals arranged as nearly parallel as possible. making them less likely to slip apart.
 This is accomplished by fine drawing Of wire; by dissolvine one metal in another and letting one of the metals separate out from SO lution in fine prccipitatc; by heat treating; by forming chemical bonds and by mixing fine particles of a hard compound or metal with an other metal as a binder.
 some of the newly formed theo- ries are being applied with success in production of aluminium alloys for ajrplane and motor parts. new hard surfaces for steel and supcr-hard cutting metals for hard steels and stones.
