For example. the latest
scheme for controlling the in
ventories of metals is. for war
tim es. strictly logical and
should be very effective. In the

TO determine effectively what a

Latest development in the
tractor field is a rear tire which
can be used on either a conven-
tional or wide-base rim. 1t is
the product of the United States
Rubber Company and is said TO
give users the advantages of in
creased croSS-section and carry
ing capacity without the extra
cost of oversize equipment.
The dealers are hailing this
new tire because it reduces the
number of sizes it is necessary
TO keep in stock.

Income Tax Deddline
Warning Is Sounded

Persons failing to file income tax
returns before the March Is dead
line will be subject to penalties pre-
scribed by law, according to a warn
ing issued last week by M. /. Evans,
deputy u. S. internal revenue tax
collector in this area.
Liability for filing tax returns this
year is based on Sfoss income in
stead of net income, and exemptions
have been lowered ID $500 i'll the
case of single persons, and to $1,000
for married persons living together.
Last year single persons earning
less than $1,000 and married persons
with incomes of less than $4,000
were exempt.
Evans pointed out that every per-
son whose income exceeds the exemp-
tion limit must file a return, even if
allowable deductions and credits free
him from the necessity of paying tax
Persons in doubt as to their liza
bility are urged to file return any
how.

the futi;:ty of war, the speaker de-
clared
AS long as oppression and greed
exist in Europe or in any other part
of the world there will be war. Ask

WHO would plunge the ccuatry into
war, the speaker urged that every
effort be exerted to help America
avoid the catastrophe of 1913.
Stressing the fact that the Legion
has always advocated strong national
defense, the speaker pointed out the
necessity of making the military
forces of this country so strong that
no other nation would dare to invade
our shores.
The speaker concluded his remarks
with the plea that America avoic
