JAMES McGARY PASSES

James McGary passed away Tues
day, Nov. %, at the Sacred Heart
Hospital in Spokane. His death was
entirely unexpected Until almost
the end, he seemed in good health
and his usual good nature. He was
Ill only two days.
Mr.. McGary was born in ST. Louis,
Mo-, II years ago. When still a
young man, he came west and
worked in Idaho, Washington and
California. About IT years ago he
came to Montana. He was employed
by the forest service, to cook for
forestry crews. Shortly after this
he filed on a homestead in the
Yak basin. During the following
years, with the exception of the
last five, he worked at his trade as
cook. in various part of Lincoln
county.
MIR. McGary made his home in
Rexford the last five years. He had
a wide acquaintance, and was liked
by all who knew him. His kindly
nature won friends for him wher-
ever he went. A brother in Cali
fornia, one in Washington and a
sister in Anaconda survive him.
The remains were shipped from
Spokane to Eureka for burial. Fu-
neral services were held at the
Catholic church in Eureka Wednes-

Tunisian Port of Bizerte
AT Mediterranean Narrows

Geography and modern harbor de-
velopment have made the Tunisian
port of Blzerte one of the most sig
nihcanh positions along the entire
Mediterranean front. 1t overlooks
the central Mediterranean mar
rows" between Europe and North
Africa; it is only about 100 miles
from Italian Sardinia on the north
west, and $50 miles from Italian
Sicily on the northeast. Moreover,
land and water formation about it
provides conditions that are par
ticularly favorable for its use as a
naval base. Bizerte has, in effect,
three harbors. The outer har-
~hor is CRITICALLY protected by jet
ties thrust into the Mediterranean
sea- From it a narrow canal leads
inland to the Bay of Sebra, which
in turn opens into Bizerte lake, a
deep, 50-square mile expanse of
water that offers anchorage for the
largest fleets OF battleships, cruis-
ers, submarines, flying boats, and
the rest. Although the canal repre-
sents bottleneck, the lake has the
wartime advantage of being, at
places, some ten miles from the en-
trance to the port.

Because the United States IS rap
idly becoming a ''have not" IN its
critical mineral reserves, a federal
department of mineral industries to
coordinate the activities of produc-
ton, utilization, and conservation OF
our mineral supply was urged re-
Gently by Dean Edward Steidle OF the
school of mineral industries at the
Pennsylvania State college.
At present there is no centralized
department for mineral industries In
the federal government, he stated.
This important field is broken up
and relegated to various bureaus IN
different departments.
Standardized federal and state
mining laws are needed to conserve
our critical minerals" he said.
Lack of adequate stocks of miner
ais is due to the haphazard explora-
ton and development of our mineral
deposits which have been wasted
frequently for want of such unified
legislation, he added.
1.-THE public has complacently ac-
cepted what appears to be an in
exhaustible supply of mineral prod
ucts until we were rudely aWak-
ened by war priorities, and We SIM
ply fail to recognize the role that
minerals now play in modern indus
try, how important they are in the
maintenance of American standards
of living, or that the United States
is not endowed with many so-called
critical minerals" Dean Steidle re-
minded.

Message to Strozdas

Lieut.. Alfred P. Strozdas, special
services officer at Camp Roberts,
Calf, recently received letter
postmarked April 8, 1912. Mailed by
a former fellow-soldier from Some
where in Ireland last spring, the let
ter went first to Ft. Benning, Ga,
but Lieutenant Strozdas didn't live
there any more. The second try sent
it to Council Bluffs, Iowa, but the
lieutenant was at Sioux City in
stead. Back once more to the
writer shuttled the -without-a-
country. Finally the dismayed cor
respondent ran into a mutual friend
who knew the correct address, and
the long-traveled missive was at last
delivered, after crossing submarine
infested Atlantic waters five times.

Formers Must
Collect Points
For Pork Sold

Although VIA has temporarily
lifted all its restrictions on the
amount of pork farmer may de-
liver to persons living off his farm,
he must continue to collect ration
points for all rationed meats, OPA
said recently. II pork is transferred
point-free, it means that a great
deal of this food will find its way
into the black market and will be
unavailable to legitimate consumers.

Proper Paint Colors Improve Light

FedeTaI housing administrator
currently cites some findings of a
recent convention of lighting experts
who have found that by means of a
scientific use of color, it is practical
to increase the illumination from
most light systems 100 per cent
without any change in lighting equip
ment or any increase in wattage, by
proper painting. They recommend
ed these simple steps.
Refinish the ceiling with a high
grade white or light ivory paint, pref
erably having an eggshell finish.
Refinish the sidewalks with a
slightly darker paint such as light
green, with SIS per cent reflection.
Refinish all horizontal surfaces
benches, chairs, tables, floors, in a
paint of at least 40 per cent reflec-
ton factor.

Formers Must
File income Reports
By December Is

Farmers who have sufficient in
come to require filing declaration
of estimated 1943 income and Vic
tory tax are required to file and
make a payment on or before De-
cember IS, unless they complied
with this requirement on the Sep
TENDER Is date that applied TO most
other persons, explains Robert E.
Hannegan, Commissioner of Inter-
nal Revenue Farmers and others
making their first report this time
will receive no declaration forms
but must ask for them if they do
not still have the forms mailed
them in August.
Because of the difficulty farm
ers have in estimating their tax,
they have been given until Deem
Der Is to file their declarations,
whereas others were required to
file September Is. Farmers are also
given greater leeWay in estimating
and are not subject to penalty un-
less they underestimate their tax
by more than 33l5 per cent.
Those persons, including farm
ers, who must file on or before
December Is are:
|. Persons who did file on or
before September Is but who un-
derestimated their tax by more than
| 20 per cent (more than 33 10 per
cent in the case of farmers) and who
should file amended declaration"
to avoid penalties.
2. Persons who did not file in
September because their estimated
/ income at that time was insufficient
to require filing, but now meet with
any one of the following require
ments. These requirements also de-
termine which farmers have to file
income declarations.
a. Anyone who expects to have
during 1943 more than /SI0o> gross
income from a source outside of
wages which are subject to with
holding and who also expects suf-
ficient gross income to require fill
ing an income tax return (S500 for
