The Internal Revenue Depart ment reports that the moved-up April 15 deadline for filing of returns created a situation that hasn't been seen for a long time. The afternoon of the tax dead line, the halls were almost empty. A man in the public informa tion office said the only business he personally had to conduct was to answer a man who called in to say that he had beaten the thun der out of his wife back in No vember. The man wanted to know if he could take the repair bill off his income tax. The tax man said he didn't know how to answer that one.

Sampietrini Constitute Select Group of Workers Rome (U.R) The Sampietri ni men of St. Peter's consti tute one of the world's most se lect group of workers. They are the repairers, restorers and cus todians of the basilica of Rome The Sampietrini number about 70 men expert workers in mo saic, glass, carpentry, stone-cut ting and related arts and crafts. They must of course, be de vout Catholics of absolute trust worthiness. They also are care fully chosen with an eye to good manners, since they also act as guides for, the visitors to the basilica. The Sampietrini have existed as a functioning group since 1450, when Pope Nicholas V be gan demolition of the old Con- stantine basilica of Pt. Peter's and laid down the plans for a new structure. Vork Intermittent Work on the project was in termittent. It was-not until 1506 that the foundation stone of what is the present basilica was laid by the great architect, Bra- mante. Bramante was followed by other masters of Italian art Raphael and Michelangelo among them and for more than a century the Sampietrini work ed under the direct supervision of the mighty Renaissance archi tects. The basilica was far enough along for the consecration to take place in 1626. Still, a modern observer might have difficulty recognizing the pres ent St. Peter's from what there was oi li men, i The two embracing arms of the Bermini colonnades came years later, as did the two foun tains and the obelisk in the square, the clocks of either side of the facade, the sacristy and the countless oiner details in side and out. The continued building and upkeep of the basilica was the function of the' Sampietrini.- The artistic geniuses conceived their masterpiece in stone and bronze and iron, but it was the Sam pietrini who executed the de signs and turned them into reality. - An almost unknown but au thentic genius, Niccola Zabaglia, came from the ranks of the Sam pietrini. Zabaglia was an illie- rate FIBrentine worker with rn unparalleled aptitude for the Technique Needed To Ride Madrid Transport System Madrid OJ.R) Riding the Madrid public transport to work these days is getting to be a job for a cross between a hermit, a sardine, and a hefty football player. The hermit, because patience is needed waiting for the trans port to arrive. A sardine, because, once the doors of bus tram or train are opened, it is a case of one aboard, all aboard until the coach is at bursting point. A football player, because, trains excepted, most Madrid transport is based on the two door principle one door to come in by and one to go out by. To reach the exit when there are 100 tightly wedged passengers ahead needs more than ballroom dancing tech nique. The municipality admits it needs urgently 50 more trams, 150 more trolley buses, and 100 auto buses. It also says that the very efficient subway system needs to be rapidly expanded. The municipality estimates it would cost $16,000,000 to buy the new equipment, not to men tion the projected extension of the underground network. But where to get the funds? Lale for Dinner, Root of the trouble is three fold lack of foreign exchange to "import adequate transport from abroad, inability of Span ish manufacturers to keep pace with demand and the tremen dous growth of Madrid. In 1947 Madrid had an esti mated population of 1,500,000. Today there are 2,000,000 per sons living here, and more keep pouring in, mainly from the provinces in search of better- paying jobs in the city. New housing districts are springing up on the outskirts of the town, throwing a big strain on the transport system, which must get its passengers to and from work twice daily. The long midday break here means that most workers travel home for lunch, return to their offices or factories in the after noon and return home agam in the evening. The problem is not so acute in the evening. Spanish men consider the time between ceas ing work at 7 or 7:30 p.m. and getting home for the evening meal at 9:30 or 10 as "the man's hours." Not for them the rush home to help put the kids to bed. It's a glass of wine, a chat, and of course that wonderful excuse: "You know, my dear, how the transport is." Although he could neither read nor write, he designed and built hoists, cranes, lifts, bridges, superstructures and platforms perfectly adapted for the par ticular work of maintaining the fabric of St. Peter's basilica. Based on Models Zabaglia died in 1750, after heading Sampietrini for more than 50 years. The equipment used by the present-day Sam pietrini is based on his models, which have never been sur passed. With their special equipment, the Sampietrini are ready for almost any sort of work, from fixing a loose cornice, 200 feet above the floor of the basilica to restoring a precious mosaic. The mere size of the basilica makes its upkeep an exacting task. St. Peter's is 632 feet leng (compared to the 332 feet of St. Patrick's cathedral in New York, or the 361 feet of London's Westminster Abbey. The floor space of St. Peter's covers nearly 10 acres, and the distance from the cross above the dome to the floor of the church is 444 feet. The structure has 290 windows, 597 pillars, 44 alters, 131 mosaics and 435 statues, and there is room with in for 100,000 persons. The "mission" variety of olive, first established by the Spanish at Mission San Diego, is widely grown in California. Andrew Jackson was born in what is generally agreed to be Waxhaw, South Carolina.

How ever, there are times when more than praise is needed. (Q) "My husband seems to re quire a most unusual amount of praise but tries very little to earn it. I believe it goes back io his childhood training when nothing was required of him though his people were kind and did much for him. He just does not seem to know how io 'contribute' nor to know how to take responsi bility in making decisions. My decisiveness was perhaps one of my characteristics that attracted him. I sort of resent its being worked to death but then too, I realize it is something I should not resent if he cannot help it. Can you tell me how I can help him? Praise has only seemed to cause him to relax and do less."
