In the latter opinion, the supreme court reversed the lower court and held that sales made by the company branches located outside Indiana to dealers and users residing in the state on orders solicited and deliveries made ‘here are subject to the gross income'tax. It also held that sales by branches located in Indiana to dealers and users residing outside the state in which the customers come to Indiana and take delivery of the goods here are subject too to’ the gross income tax. The supreme court affirmed the lower court’s ruling that the International Harvester Co. was entitled to a refund on sales made by branches outside Indiana to dealers and users located in Indiana where the orders are solicited by representatives of out of state branches and the goods are shipped to the customer.

‘Clearing ‘House’ Does the Rough. Work, Then Consults President.

WASHINGTON, March 19 (U.P). —President Roosevelt has set up what amounts to a “clearing house” that refines major problems for him. ~ It is staffed by top-flight advisory experts who do the “rough work” so that the president can make a decisionn without taking too much time from his job of directing the war effort. 5 : The clearing house has no formal name or framework; but it has a number of departments. The latest to be set up is a post-war planning committee, headed by Secretary of State Hull, and a membership including a group of international experts, both in and out of the government.

Leahy ‘Funnels’ Data

The clearing house has been long in developing, and only recently have its functions taken on their present broad scope. Included in the informal organization are: 1. The combined chiefs of staff, with Admiral William D. Leahy, chief of staff to the commander in chief, serving as a super funnel for military information to Mr. Roose-' velt. - 2. A committee headed by Economic Stabilization Director James PF. Byrnes, which, so far, has tackled only the manpower situation for the president, but is regarded as a good bet for future assignments. 3. The national resources planning board, which is organizing post-war domestic plans and consolidating them for Mr. Roosevelt and congress. 4. The combined A. F. of L.-C. I. O. labor “cabinet” which meets with the president at regular intervals, permitting him to concentrate within a period of 30 minutes or an hour discussions which would require

Instead of training his first-born to bring home more track medals and trophies, Pvt. Sears announced today that one-day-old Susan Sears, weighing .9 pounds and 5 ounces, will be : groomed for ‘Swimming championships. Pvt. Sears, assistant to’ the base athletic officer at San Diego, Cal., arrived here on furlough Wednesday morning by ferry command bomber. He was just in time to spend some anxious hours: pacing the corridor at St. Francis hospital before a girl was born to his wife yesterday afternoon.
