CONGRESS EVADES ,COOL!DGE BELATED PLAN! TAX CUT Fuii 1923 Income Tax Must Be Paid With Small Chance of Rebate, Bjf United Press WASHINGTON, March 12.—A curt refusal today appeared certain to be Congress’ reply to President Coolidge’3 urgent request for an immediate 25 per cent reduction in 1923 income taxes. Asa result taxpayers must pay their full amount of taxes and unless Con grass’ acts, the treasury department will be powerless to rebate. House Leaders Unmoved House leaders were unmoved by Coolidge's request urging immediate adoption of the resolution permitting taxpayers to deduct a quarter of the tax. He pointed out many of them had delayed making returns in expectation of the reduction. Chairman Greene of the House Ways and Means Committee, declared today the plan is impossible. "We cannot pass the resolution in time to affect the taxpayer who must begin paying Saturday.” he said. Some house members, including Representative Garner, Texas, said the waited until it was too late. Why Not Earlier "It Is hard to understand,” said Gamer, "why the President did not urge this matter earlier, in view of the importance he attaches to it.” The House’s unwillingness to act Is based on the fear if 1923 taxes were reduced, the President would veto the tax bill. While the 1923 reduction clause is in the bill they feel he will not dare veto it.

Lubricating- Oil Should Be Changed Now to Summer Grade The winter is a hard time for any automobile, as the weather in most parts of the country is too cold to do any more work around the car than is absolutely necessary. One of the first things to attend to Is your lubrication system. The oil you have been using during the cold weather is generally much lighter than that used during the summer. The warm weather will be with us in a few weeks, and it is just about time to think of changing to the summer oil. The light oil you have been using during the winter was neces sary during the cold weather, but Is altogether too light when the warm weather arrives. Now is the time the old oil should be drained out of the crankcase and the oil'pan removed and all sediment that may have collected cleaned out. You know how water, gasoline and road grit collect In the crankcase, rendering the oil worthless as a lubricant after you have run about 500 miles. The engine will run with this diluted oil, but It is not being lubricated properly, vary rapid wear taking place in your bearings and cylinder Avails. This wear begins to be noticeable when you find your engine does not run as smoothly and quietly as It did when you first got It. If you run your engine for long periods without changing the oil, you can rely on It that you are shortening the life of your car from 50 per cent to 75 per cent.
The best time to drain the oil out of the crankcase, is just after you have come in from a run and while the engine is warm. Take out the drain plug and let the crankcase drain. There is usually a screen used to filter the oil at the oil filler hole, and if you have a force feed lubrication system, there will be another screen to filter the oil at the pump. Remov# both of these and clean with gasoline. Usually the pump screen can be removed when you unscrew the drain plug, but sometimes it cannot be removed until the oil pan Is taken off. Now remove the oil pan by taking out the bolts that hold it to the upper part of the crankcase. Sometimes it is necessary to disconnect an oil pipe before the pan can be removed. Use care if this operation is necessary. Re careful when remoA-ing the pan to see that you do not Injure the gasket. If it is broken or injured while taking off the pan, use anew one. A good stiff brush and some gasoline will enable you to clean the thoroughly. After replacing the pan. fill up with about half a gallon of special fushing oil or a light lubricating oil, not kerosene, then turn the engine over Avith the starter for about a minute, then remove the plug and allow the flushing oil to drain off. After flushing out, fill up with fresh oil and allow engine to run for a time, then examine the joint around the oil pan to see that It is oil tight. If it shOAvs signs of leaking anywhere, try tightening up the bolts. If this does not stop the leak then you will haA-e to fit a neAv gasket. By removing the oil pan, then flushing out as well, you give the engine lubrication system a thorough cleaning out. and add many months to the life of the engine. At one time it was quite general practice to flush out the crankcase
with kerosene after it was drained. This is not done any more, however, for it lias been found to do a great deal more harm than good. In an engine using the splash system of lubrication, the kerosene lodges in the various depressions and pockets and cannot be completely removed without dismantling the engine. The kerosene that is left in the engine mixes with the fresh oil, diluting it, undoing all the good work you did Avhen you drained off the old oil. Kerosene will cut grit and sediment better than oil, but it will also carry the grit to bearings Avhere it does considerable harm. If you drain the crankcase Just after you come in from a run and while the engine is Avarm. you will drain off all of the gilt and sediment that is In circtilation. It is only necessary to remove the oil pan once & season, after that the oil should be changed regularly every 500 milea.

Yoke, Charles R. Barry and Fred Bates Johnson came into control, and the high school building program is still in a state of stagnation. No steps toward selecting a site for the west side high school or carrying out tentative plans for a colored high school or anew Shortridge were taken at the board meeting Tuesday night. About 200 Avest side residents urged Arnolda Ave.. or King Ave. and Tenth St. as the site for the west side high school. Mrs. Inez Pracd, Edward Funk and Mrs. Henry Blatt were spokesmen. J. W.

A comprehensive survey of physical needs of the schools Avas submitted by 1 a special committee composed of E. |U. Graff, superintendent; Murray ! Dahlman, director of research; George IH. Rickes, superintendent of buildj ings and grounds, and Jacob H. Hilj kene, Inspector of construction.

IN recent years, the price of gasoline has been discussed, widely and at length. It has been the subject of legislative discussions and investigations. It has served in some instances as a political vehicle for aspiring candidates. Because gasoline plays suen an intimate part in all our lives the theme has been a popular one. Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is America’s leading refiner of gasoline and, therefore, is keenly interested in all phases of such discussions. For the benefit of those who would have the subject illuminated, this Company will pre'sent, in the next few weeks, some sidelights on this question. The average tank wagon price of gasoline in the ten Middle Western States served by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is approximately equal to the price of an ice cream soda which comparison we make merely as an example. The ice cream soda satisfies a passing desire —it is pleasant—it is nourishing. A gallon of gasoline renders a vital service —it will take your car a dozen or a score of miles on an errand of business, pleasure, or mercy. It will bring the doctor to administer to the sick —it will propel a fire engine to save property —it will harvest grain—and in innumerable instances does gasoline render an essential service. Gasoline is a vital cog in the wheel of industrial progress. Gasoline is the cheapest commodity in the world —in proportion to the service it renders. To make this service available to all; to enable every one of the thirty million people of the Middle West to get gasoline when and where he wants it, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has built up, and maintains, a system of distribution so comprehensive that its gasoline may|be had every few blocks in the city and every few miles in the country. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) counts its system of distribution a major achievement, because its benefits accrue to the man who buys two gallons of gasoline as well as the man who needs a thousand gallons.
