In addition to co-operating with the city-wide ‘wartime transportation program, which becomes effective tomorrow as a means of aiding the war effort, Indianapolis railways today pointed out three additional ways that trolley and bus patrons can co-operate in speeding war workers to their jobs. j . These are: 1. Having exact fares ready in advance of boarding vehicles. 2. Always moving to the rear of trolleys and busses. 3. Alloting ample time to reacn destinations lest vehicles be delayed by increased passénger loads. When patrons have their fares ready before the vehicle arrives, they save not only their own time but that of every passenger, transit officials point out. When they wait to obtain their fare after boarding, the operator

MISTAKES MADE IN PAYING GROSS TAX

covering business done from April 1 to June 30 are now due and will be delinquent after July 15 for all those owing more than $10 tax, the state gross income tax division said today. " Director Gilbert K. Hewit said several thousand retailers on returns filed in the April taxpaying period paid double the amount of tax they owed because they computed their tax at the old rate of 1 per cent instead of the new lower retail rate of % of 1 per cent. Recéipts from laundering or dry cleaning establishments are also taxable at the rate of 1 one per cent rate. Receipts from industrial processing, enameling, plating or servicing of tangible personal property for resale are taxable at 34 of 1 per cent. : As under the gross income tax law before amendment, receipts from wholesale sales and - display advertising are taxable at the rate of % of 1 per cent. All other gross income tax is taxable at the rate of 1 per cent. All taxpayers get an exemption of $250 per quarter from their taxable gross income. Retail merchants

get $750 a quarter but not in addi-

tion to the $250 regular exemption. Return forms are available at all of the auto license branches and at other local distribution points,

Nitroglycerin as such is not used in warfare, but as dynamite and other blasting preparations it is one of the principal tools of the engineering corps. The “shovel-sol-diers” use it in clearing roads for troops and tanks and guns and trucks hustling up to the front. They use it also in demolitions, to

taking advantage of bridges, docks, warehouses=and other installations. Too violent to trust in a gun, nitroglycerin is mixed with some types of smokeless powder “dough” to pep up the final product. Back of the firing line, nitroglycerin blasting preparations are needed now in unprecedented quantities for getting out ores and coal for the war industries, for quarrying limestone to feed into blast furnaces, for clearing new airfields, factory sites, etc. It won't matter if the fats saved from kitchens and hamburger joints get old and smelly before they are turned in. That merely means that the natural process of breaking down into glycerin and their other constituents, the fatty acids, has been going on. And fats have to be thus chemically split apart before they are industrially useful.

Scrap Fats Yield Glycerin ~ For Explosives and Soaps

By Science Service WASHINGTON, July 6.—Scrap fats, that are to be detoured from the nation’s garbage cans into our war industries, will aid materially and directly in cooking Hitler's goose.

The other breakdown products of fats, the fatty acids, are of use principally in the soap industry. As glycerin plus acids becomes explosive nitroglycerin, fatty acids plus alkalis become cleansing soap. No matter how strong and rank a soap-vat may seem at the beginning of the job, such is the

Whole shiploads of soaps, of various special types, are tailor-made for industrial use.
