ANCIENT RELICS
FOUND IN TOMB
Mound in Mongolia Reveals
Old Civilization.

BIZ Science Serrice
MOSCOW, Feb. 10-The ancient
Greeks were not dealing entirely in
myths when they talked about the
Land of the Hyperboreans, the
jewellers behind the north winds.
The latest discoveries by Professor
Peter Kozlov, famous Russian ex-
plorer, revealed that the Greeks
were right in accepting rumors of a
cultured race far to the north of the
little world.
Professor Kozlov, who has been
excavating at an ancient burying
ground in the mountain passes of
Northern Mongolia, has just sent
back word to civilization that he
has entered the tomb of an Asiatic
person of rank who lived in eastern
luxury more than 1000 years ago.
The expedition has placed special
hopes on the mound containing this
tomb, because the conditions of
getting into it were so discourage
ing that it must have been thief
proof through the centuries.
The tumulus, or mound, was
dubbed by the excavators the wet
tumulus" because Of the water in it.
Starting last summer. the expedition
set four pumps working day and
night to pump it dry. When this
attack failed, they waited until
winter brought heavy frost, and
now scientific persistence has won.
Out of the tomb the workers
brought jade, tapestry, a carpet
adorned with hieroglyphs, little
carved fgurines Of dragons, lynxes,
and spotted deer, and other
beautiful things.

CROSS INCOMES
/ FOR CAR CITED
Eight Items Are Eligible for
Credit in Figuring
Federal Tax.

By Times Special
WASHINGTON. Feb. i0.-Deduc-
tons from the gross income allowed
car owners under the regulations Of
the bureau OF internal revenue on
account of automobile ownership
and operation we're outlined today
in a statement broadcast by the
American Automobile Association.
First, the car owner may deduct
from his gross income all sums paid
during the year in the form Of

deducted in all cases where It is a
consumers tax under the state
iaw, but not where It Is specifically
enacted as q distributors tax"
Interest Is Cited
Third, the interest on money Dor
Towed for the purchase Of an auto
mobile is deductible. irrespective Of
whether the car is used for business
purposes or for pleasure. If the
taxpayer keeps his accounts on a
cash basis such interest will be de-
ductible only for the year in which
paid. If accounts arc kept on an
accrued basis, interest may be de-
Quoted as it accrues.
Fourth, II passenger car is used
Hholly for business purposes. all ex-
Denses incident to maintenance, in
Guiding depreciation at the rate Of
20 per cent per annum, may be de-
Quoted. Where the car is used

-1leasure. the expense may be de-
ucted on a pro rata basis.
Figure on Damage
Fifth, loss sustained by reason of
damage to an automobile while be-
ing used for either business or

injury to a pedestrian. such amount
is deductible. provided at the time

business expense, where. at the time
the expense was incurred. the car
was being used for business or pro-
feSSional purposes.

chiefly for business purposes is
traded in for a new car may be
deducted.

purchased car which covers interest
and risk on the loan, but not the
amount covering the premium on
insurance to protect the finance
company'S interest.

pointed out that the gasoline tax
has been ruled a consumers tax
and therefore deductible in the fol-
lowing states: District Of Columbia,

To prove there was no fluke about the way his Cornell crews took most of the honors at Poughkeep- sic this year, Jim Wray went over to Springfield and turned out a na- ronal championship eight, com posed of a Syracuse varsity oars man. a former M. I. T. sweep swinger and six Springfield CMass) high school boys, coxed by Jimmy Burke, who steered Cornells victor ious varsity on the Hudson.
 The combination beat some of the best amateur club crews in the N. A. A. O. regatta.
 Burke has won the reputation of being one of the pepperiest college coXswainS produced in years. His piercing tones rose belligerently above the fight among nine crews for the blue ribbon honors at Poughkeepsie. His ingenuity in as- suaging the thirst of Cornell's var sity stroke was an important factor in the crews success.
 The Big Red pace-setter was Boh Wilson, a sophomore rowing in his first big race and, as a consequence feeling the nervous strain. Early in the four-mile race, spectators saw Burke scoop up handfuls of water and dash it on Wilson's face They figured the stroke was trifle groggy and that Burke was using extreme methods to revive him. The fact was that Wilson's throat had become parched and that Burke resourcefully turned to Old Man River for assistance with satis- factory effect Wilson soon settled down and the big Red Shell swept on to win under his steady Strok- ing.

Mississippi river was so low that
barges and towboats were stuck on
sandbars and mud flats all along the
Father of Waters. At the same time
the levels of Lakes Michigan, Supe-
rior and Huron were higher; which
led commentators on the lake d.
version controversy to think that the
policy of the government has resulted
in giving the citizens who use the
Great Lakes more water than they
need, at the same time depriving the
manufacturers and farmers of the
Mississippi valley of sufficient water
to float their cargoes to the sea.

New Device Is Help in
Parking of Automobile

A device which may be installed
on any automobile and which, it is
said, will save time and space in
parking, has been invented by II. w.
Branson, an employee in the office OF
the state auditor at Jefferson City, MO.
It consists of a set of two small
auxiliary wheels that are attached to
the front axle and which are hinged
SO that they may be dropped to the
ground through control on the in
strument board. When the small
wheels are touching the ground, the
driver, puts the car in reverse and
backs up from two to four inches
raising the front end of the car on the
auxiliary wheels and lifting the front
wheels of the car off the ground.
AS soon as this operation is carried
out the steering gear automatically be-
comes attached to the auxiliary
wheels and the driver may turn the
car to either side by merely turning
the steering wheel.
