Full Fuel Tax
Exemption Won
..BlyD.C. Transit
81 PUG. Recommends
Il Thut $375. 800 Fund
Be Kept by Firm
By GRACE BASSETT

d. C. Transit System, Inc,
today won from the Public
Utilities Commission a full fuel
tax exemption Of $375, 800 for
the year ending last August 81.
p. q. c. Chairman George e.
G. Hayes forwarded this rec
ommendation to the District
Commissioners who must final-
" determine whether o. Roy
Chalk. transit president. must
pay the tax.
The p. U. c. asked that Mr..
Chalk be freed from the gas
tax charges in accordance with
his congressional franchise.
Congress called for an ex-
emption to the extent that the
company failed to make 6.5 per
cent profits. The p. u. c.
set the allowable SIS per cent
profit at $846, 1000. But D.. C.
Transit made only $3.50. 4SS, the
p. u. c. figures.
Net Held to s2l3,OOO
Without the added income
tax exemption given him, Mr..
Chalk would have made only
slightly more than $213,000 net,
according to the p. q. c.
Thus, the difference between
his net income and the allow
able SIS per cent was more than
the amount Of the tax, emitting
him to the full exemption.
The P. U. c. finding was a
compromise between positions
taken by Mr.. Chalk and his at
torney. Harvey Spear. and the
P. U. c. chief accountant, Will
liam Falk and Counsel Lloyd
Harrison.
THE commission sought to
determine the course calculated
to protect the interests of both
the community and the utility, 4"
Mr.. Hayes said.
At issue was the base on
which the SIS per cent profit
was to be figured.
Asked SIS Million Base
Mr.. Chalk asked for q base
Of $25 million. representing
gross operating revenue. Fall
ing this. he maintained the
base should be about $1S mil
lion. representing roughly the
price he paid for the company
plus his liabilities for streetcar
track removal.
The P. U. c. staff urged the
commission to set the base at
$8.l million, more closely
geared to the purchase price.
The PUG set the base at
S13 million. recognizing that

ter months, applies to every farm or ranch
Breakdowns and stops for repairs during
field work time are very expensive. Most
of them do not happen if the machinery is
in good condition Whether you do your
own repair work, or hire it done, there is
no better time to get it done than in slack
months.
A good heated farm shop is a must if
you are going to do all repairing yourself
Knowing or remembering what repair
work is needed is another must" A good
way of remembering is to carry a note
book and pencil during field work. Write
down each item of repair or Improvement
that you notice. The most urgent of these
can be done on rainy days and the others
during slack months.
Another way of determining what repairs
are needed is to make thorough inspection
A good time to do this is when the machine
is first put away after use. Since that prob
ably isn't the slack season when you will
do the repairing, your notebook will come
in handy this time too. Examine bearings,
belts, chains and tires. Look for broken or
worn parts and loose or missing bolts If
there is any doubt about any part, make a
note to take it off and examine it further.
If you didn't make these inspections last
fall or winter, by all means make them now
Now is the time to get the repairs done so
you won't have breakdowns in the field.
Remember, too, that it might take some time
to get repair parts. You will save shop time
if you have the repair parts on hand before

machinery reduces labor, fuel and machin-

just as much as producing more or getting

Field efficiency is getting the most work
from an implement in the field, or using
the time for going instead of stopping, turn
ing or travelling empty.
Here are II ways by which field efficiency
might be increased. They may not all apply
on your farm or ranch but your attention
to them can pay you well.
L. Overhaul during slack winter months
2. Make major adjustments in the shop.
3. Avoid unnecessary stops.
A. Streamline unavoidable stops.
5. Use larger seed boxes, fertilizer and
grain boxes.
6. Make fields as large as practical
z. Layout fields to reduce "to and from

10. Utilize the full width of the imple-
