County Extension Service News ■MI MB MM MM MM MM «MB MM MM MM Ml New Sizing The pattern fashion industry has taken an important step to make pattern sizing correspond with ready-to-wear sizes. "New Sizing" is an attempt by all the major pattern companies to decrease the confusion as to what size pattern to buy. In the past, if you wore a size 12 dress, you would probably have to buy assize 14 pattern sice the patterns \\ere smaller than the ready-to-wear. Many women did not realize this, consequently their gannets did not fit. Also the pattern companies had their own measurements for each size so you might have worn a size in a Simplicity and another in a McCalls. i All patterns issued after November 1,1967 are in the “New Sizing.” When buying a pattern look for the words “New Sizing" on the front of the pattern envelop. Be sure to check your measurements against those on the pattern envelop. Many times homemakers are unsatisfied with home sewn garments because they don’t fit properly when actually they did not buy the correct pattern size In most cases, you should be able to buy the same size pattern as you do ready-to-wear. Although there are always exceptions so be sure to check your measurements Remember to theck your measurements every few months. Although your weight may not change but your proportions might. Hopefully “New Sizing" will remedy many of the problems previously encountered in fitting a pattern And make clothing construction more rewarding for thousands of homemakers who sew RECIPE OF/THE WEEK Cinnamon Cake Makes two 8 inch cakes Sift 2 cups cake flour. 1 teaspon soda. 4 teaspoon salt. 2 teaspoon cinnamon.

NUMBER 21

Crackdown On Those Who Do Not Pay Tax James O. Mathis, Commissioner of Revenue, announced today a crackdown on purchasers of automobiles and other motor vehicles who have failed to pay sales tax at the time they apply for a title from the Bureau of Motor Vehicles. Mathis explained that whenever a motor vehicle is purchased from a person other than a registered dealer, the/ 1 purchaser is required to pay sales tax on the the license branch at the time ne applies for a title. y Many persons who m4ke such purchases declare a nominal purchase price on the title application such as $1 or $5 because they feel there is no way of checking up on them. Mathis said a copy of every title application is being scrutinized by the sales tax division and where it appears that the purchase price is understated. the Bureau of Motor Vehicles is requested to hold up issuance of the title until such time as the matter can be cleared up with the title applicant. Mathis emphasized that the purchaser in signing the title application with a false or incorrect purchase Drice listed thereon is guilty of signing a false affidavit and is subject to severe civil and criminal penalties. The Indiana state police recently arrested one person for perjury for stating he paid $1 for a vehicle when the purchase price $450. Charges are expected to be filed within a few days on a number of similar cases. In all instances where an apparently incorrect purchase price is listed on the title application, the purchaser will be required to submit a bill of sale or affidavit from the seller attesting to the actual selling price before a title for the vehicle will be issued. Mathis gave much of the credit for the new program to Gerald W. Habig, Commissioner of the Bureau of Motor Vehicles, whq has co-operated fully in the new program. The Bureau of Motor Vehicles collects in excess of $3,000,000 per year in sales tax for the Department of Revenue and local license branches have had to assume the responsibility of determining the amount of sales tax and collect sime.
