CORPORATIONS ARE ALLOWED NO REDUCTION IN REVENUE TAX With a view to correcting false impressions of the provisions of the internal revenue act of 1924 as it affects corporations, officials of the internal revenue office in Binghamton today made public a statement from the treasury department at Washington. This statement calls attention to the fact that Section 230 of the 1924 act fixes the tax: upon corporations at 12'4 per which is the same as the rate of 1923. Corporations, therefore, are not permitted under the act to take as a credit any reduction in tax for the payment due on June 15, or any subsequent installment date. The credit of 25 per allowed under the act.

The varnish finish, while infinitely better today than a few years back, is probably the first part ot a car to need replacement. The strain to which the delicate finish ia subject is responsible for much of the quick rttrinrnilnn.

Road dirt, dust, tar, motor oil thrown up on the body by the wheels If allowed to remain on the finish quickly attack the varnish surface of car, and the result is flaking of varnish, checking and the inevitable destruction of the entire finish. The proper way to wasn a car in wft. a hosdo "no fnren of water aealnit I I JCm nn, with sponge pien- to go over car direct the full tinrlv. Th tifully sopped In a solution of Mobo auto soap and water go over cm washing it thorougniy. i no soup will be found to loosen dirt, grease and grime very quickly.

Then rinse the car thoroughly with clean water and finally dry down varnish with a chamois. The sponge used for tho body should be free from coral particles, which would scratch the finish. Avoid washing the car in tho sun if possible. Wash the car as soon as possible after It litis become muddy. The habit ot giving the car a washing on Saturday afternoon is becoming quite general among motorists, and It Is now believed that this is one of the best ways in which to keep the finish of an automobile free from signs of age.

FILM AT SYMPHONY TO SHOW HOW DANGEROUS CRIMINAL IS CAPTURED George A. Thompson, local insur ance man, recently assisted in the capture of a dangerous criminal who long has been troubling the automobile owners of this vicinity. For some time it has been sus pected that, more than mere accident was involved in the fires, collisions, robberies and other disasters that, have Interfered so seriously with the pleasure of the motorists and the business of commercial car owners. Many students of the sub. jert have felt convinced that these things were the work of a malicious influence of an autojlnx, in fact, and many Ingenious traps have been made to capture him at nis maooi- ical work.

Heretofore, all these efforts have been 'unsuccessful, for tho Autojlnx was too clever and too swift to bo taken by surprise. Nevertheless, patience at last has been rewarded and Mr. Thompson and his colleagues when he was struck by an automobile driven by John Scoles on Conklin avenue during the heavy rain storm last night. Scoles said in his report of the accident at police headquarters that he was driving east on Conklin avenue when he saw the man walking in the street In front of him. Ho said ho sounded his horn but the man started from one side ot the street to the other in front of his car.

The machine struck him despite efforts of the driver to avert it. Scoles said, he stopped his car, helped the injured man to get in and then took him home. Scoles did not say whether the man was badly injured or not. He also failed to give the name or addreRS Of the injured man or his own address in his report. C.

D. Morris of 3 Euclid avenue reported at police headquarters that when he backed his automobile away from a battery service station on llnwley street this morning his car collided with an automobile driven by Detective Sergeant John I. Crawford who was backing from parking place in front of police headquarters. Fenders of both machines were slightly damaged. pavement and Water street is to be resurfaced from Court to Eldridge street including a bitullthic top for Water street north of Ferry street.

Proposals will also be received for laying water mains on Collier street, Crary avenim and Woodlawn avenue. The Collier street improvement will connect the high pressure main on Hawlcy street with the Court street main and during the progress of the work parking on the east side of Collier street will be barred. Bids will be received for erecting a service building in connection with the Public Market to be used for meat inspection, to cost not to exceed $5,000. 8,600 People Were Killed by Trains at Crossings Last Year Chicago. March 7 tf the entire population of Bed Wing.

a city ot 8.600 people, were to be wiped out by some calamity, the whole nation would stand aghast and take immediate steps to prevent a recurrence of the catastrophe. Yet 8,600 people were killed in grade crossing accidents alone last year, an increase of 20 per cent, over the year before, asserted Richard K. Kropf, supreme regent of the Royal Arcanum in a safety address here. "The Unhappy part of this great loss of life Is that It was unnecessary and was preventable," insisted Mr. Kropf, who as chief of the Royal Arcanum's safety movement among Its 1.300 councils in the United States and Canada has achieved national prominence as a safety authority.

"A calamity to a thriving city of 8.600 souls would shock the world, yet by little groups, the grade crossing and the automobile roll up a terrible death toll and the public continues its carelessness unimpressed. "Statisticians claim that 90 per cent, of all automobile accidents are due to carelessness. In grade crossing accidents, the per cent, is closer to 99 44-100, for the railroads, it must be stated in all fairness, are not to blame. They protect the crossings by warning signs and signals and are now engaged in a program for reducing grade crossings. "Eliminating grade crossings will, however, require years and many millions of dollars.

In the meantime, the cooperation of state, federal and local authorities, highway associations, commerce bodies, and all agencies such as the Royal Arcanum interested in accident prevention must continue to preach the doctrine of caution to the motorist." BRITISH GOVERNMENT TAKES HAND IN STRIKE OF POWER HOUSE HEN London, Juno 1 (lulled Pre) The British labor government intervened today in the "red" strike of powerhouse workers which yesterday put most of London's great network of subway systems out of commission. A plenary strike committee to deal with the revolt of the "rank and flic" against responsible union leaders who had opposed the walkout was created. The committee was empowered by Premier MacDonald to "take any necessary steps."

Mr. Stewart added that a number ot stockholders residing throughout New York state claim to have been defrauded out of a total of thou sands of dollars. "They claim they can get no Information nor statements as to the companies' affairs," he said, "and say that they only get demuniis for more money. They havo met such demands before now from time to time, and elalm they havo paid them. "Wo are getting the stockholders' cases into shape to lay them be foro the Federal district attorney with request fur his official investigation and if possible, to bring prosecution against those found at fault, "As nearly as we can ascertain there has been in excess of $135,000 secured from stockholders by vari ous persons claiming to represent the companies, nnd apparently this money hns entirely disanneared.

This part of the case is spread over a term ot several years. There ate judgments still outstanding and un- 1 satisfied against both corporations and these Judgments aggregate a considerable sum. We are finding th nanera and data In this case very voluminous. Many stockholders have no stock certificates for the money they say they paid, though they have receipts showing the payment of such money over to various officers ot tha com panies. But at that time claim that thr-y had boen dispossessed for non-payment of rent.

You should hear some of the stories that we have received, and are atlll recelv- ing, from stockholders and creditors who tell ot paying over good money which thoy badly need now, and of getting nothing back but requests for more money.

PARTS BOARD SHOWS ALL HUPMOBILE WORKS AND ELIMINATES CHANCE Tho greatest exemplification of fuitll in the world Is the buyer of American motor cars, according to the Noppcr-Kane local Hupmo-bitu distributor.
