baug.i has be". '-Ving several
months on the tires and stated
that the time taken in building
them was much longer than an
ticipated due to trouble in ob
taining iron for the specially
shaped rim.
The tires are made in SO
blocks which are held in place
by screws set horizontally
through the rim and wood hold
ing it firmly In place. Colbaugh
explained that he experimented
on the first tires, Mscovering
m'. '.akes and then beginning
again in order to get the best
possible results.
Speed attained with the wood
en tires was about 33 miles an
hour, Colbaugh said, and thus
far they have only been driven
on test runs.
A life bumpy and a little
noisy they're a lot better than
walking.

Washington, Sept. 12 (U.PJ
A $1-9,000,000,000 war revenue
bill, carrying $7,100,000,000 in
direct new t&xes and beginning
its levy on individuals Just above
the $500-a-year income level,
was all but completed tonight
for senate consideration on Sept
28.
The senate finance committee
held the measure open, how
ever, for a few more changes on
Monday before turning it over
to legislative draftsmen to be
whipped into shape for the
start of debate.
Besides the $7,100,000,000 in
permanent revenue, provisions
for a partially refundable new
"victory" tax on individuals and
a post-war credit for corpor
ations will bring in additional
treasury receipts of $1,900,000,
000, which eventually will be re
paid to the taxpayers.
Committee action has been
completed on the corporation
and individual income tax rates,
which with other levies proposed
in the measure and existing tax
laws, will take about $25,000,
000,000 of 'he nation's income
next year to finance war expen
ditures estimated at $100,000,
000,000 for the same period.
House-approved individual in
come rates, proposed at the high
est revenue levels in history,
were jacked up still further by
senate Increases. Only the mar
rid man with net income less
than $1,900 a year would pay
less under the se lite bill than
under the house measure. The
senate bill would increase the
number of taxayers from the
present 27,000,000 to 44,000,000
next year.
House approved corporation
rates, levying a 4S per cent nor
mal and surtax rate and 90 per
cent on excess profits, were ra
tioned by the senate, a I i cush
ioned with a provision for post
war refund of 10 per cent of the

SUGAR'S USE FOR
The Office of Price Adminis
tration Joins with Governor
Charles A. Sprague and the Ore
gon State Grange in urging
housewives to conserve through
home canning of in extra sup
ply of fruit, the local war price
and rationing board announced
today. The only restriction is
that housewives do not waste
sugar and that they base their
needs on the ration of one pound
of sugar for every four quarts
of finished canned fruit.
It was explained that the al
lowance for jams and Jellies re
mains the same, one pound per
person per year. Housewives can
do their bit to help win the war
by home canning, thereby re
leasing commercial packs for
armed forces. Applesauce and
cranberry sauce can be put up
at the same proportion as other
fruit, four quarts to pound of
sugar.

SHOULDER to shoulder vith the fighting men on the
war fronts of the world go the correspondents of the
American press.
You will find them peering down from the bellies of
bombers over New Guinea or Hamburg, scanning the
swirling actions in Egypt from the scant cover of foxholes
or from within baking, bruising tanks. You will find them
on the bridges and sky-controls of cruisers and carriers
off Midway and Wake and Malta as the enemy torpedo
planes swoop. You will find them plodding through the
steaming tangle of Burmese jungles, or sharing a look
out's watch aboard a convoy ship heading blindly through
the Arctic dark for Murmansk.
With the troops and crews and squadrons the correspon
dents face every hazard of war: gun-fire and capture and
pestilence, hardship and tension and tedium. They face
these things at the risk and sometimes at the sacrifice
of their lives and their freedom. They face them stead-
fastly, undramatically, like soldiers like the soldier
that they are.
For while they must remain wholly aloof from any mili
tary part at the front, they are none the less fighters for
the principles and for the needs of their country. They
are chancing all they have and doing all they can to
report to their country the truth. For it people to know
the truth is a birthright implicit in the nation's democratic
ideal, a birthright which today is a necessity. With all the
world tumult and confusion, we here must know the
truth clearly, completely, quickly in order to plan and
to act effectively for victory.
Pictured here are a representative few of that unarmed
army of men whose dispatches bring us the truth. Te
them and their legion of associates in their own and
kindred world-news services, to the soldiers of the press,
the American war correspondents, this advertisement ii
a salute.
