If you do, particularly if you're a farmer, you may obtain some consolation con-solation from a local banker, who contends that the federal income tax has helped Oklahoma farmers. R. M. Kobs, president of the First National bank, . maintains that many farmers are making more money than before because of the income tax. Paying the tax, he insists, in-sists, forced , farmers for the first time to add up income from the "little things" like milk and egg checks and feed sales. "As a result of having to figure their tax," the banker concludes, "farmers have come to know just what profit they are making from some crop, instead of merely guessing guess-ing they're getting along all right." $100,090 Coal Grant Remains Unused for Period oi 80 Years PITTSBURGH, PA. - For 80 years the sum of $100,000, intended to buy coal for needy families, has been kicking around here and nobody no-body knows how to dispose of it. In the 1860s two wealthy men, Charles Brewer and James Crawford, Craw-ford, bequeathed large amounts of money to West Perm hospital to buy coal for needy families. The hospital found that there were not enough needy residents in the designated areas to spend the fund. When the hospital took the case to court, the combined funds were ordered turned over to the Pittsburgh foundation. fQn cf 75 Finds f Career in Art fiS H duties Inmost nf,erkepther occu- foeer Radaaugh has a fe an artist.

WASHINGTON. Discovery ol artistic treasures in an ancient Mayan burial ground in the little known highlands oi Guatemala was announced by Carnegie institute. They represent craftsmanship spanning seven or eight centuries and contribute new knowledge of the skill and customs of the Mayas. These Indians were the most brilliant bril-liant exponents of higher aboriginal culture in the Western world in the days before Columbus. Along with art objects unearthed from the mound including "the finest fin-est single example of Mayan Jade carving yet brought to light"-the Carnegie archeologists also found graves dating from the fourth or fifth to the twelfth century of the Christian era. Valuable Plaque. Most valued finding among scores of art objects and relics is a plaque or breastplate of jadeite dating from about the ninth century. Characteristic Char-acteristic of the greatest period of Mayan art, the plaque reveals the finesse of the ancient craftsmen who had no metal tools with which to work. Another is a pottery figurine, fashioned to form a whistle the type of ritual whistles used in religious reli-gious ceremonies of the Maya. Still another is an alabaster vase, developed devel-oped from rough material to an object ob-ject of perfect shape and delicate thinness despite the crude tools available to the artisans. Old Jade Carvings. Archeologists also found jade carvings dating from the fourth or fifth centuries which, when compared com-pared with the ninth-century Jade, revealed the advances in craftsmanship crafts-manship made by the Mayas with the passage of time. The first find made by the excavators exca-vators as they dug into the mound was a large circular stone altar slab about eight inches thick, much resembling a millstone. Underneath It were 12 skulls, one upside down in the center, with a number of jades piled on it and the other 11, right side up, arranged in a ring around it. Researchers found several tombs in the mound. The floor of one was painted a robin's egg blue rather than the red which is usual in Mayan burials. Japs Couldn't Stop Him, Shot in Beer Garden Does DALLAS, TEX. Peter M. Gomez, former bartender, lived through enough wartime close calls In the Pacific area to become a national na-tional legend, only to stop a bullet in a beer garden. As a private first-class in the 32d Infantry regiment, Gomez was orderly or-derly to the commanding officer, Col. John M. Finn of Los Angeles. Their hair-breadth exploits were related re-lated in an article in a nationally circulated magazine. As Gomez was leaving a "Little Mexico" tavern with his former wife, a man called him into the gar den. The shooting followed. Elmo Estrada surrendered to police po-lice and a charge of murder was field against him. He declined to discuss the shooting. Gomez served 28 months overseas, over-seas, most of it with the 7th division. divi-sion. A machine-gun bullet in his left arm earned him the Purple Heart on Attu in the Aleutians, and he received the Bronze Star for wiping wip-ing out a Japanese machine-gun nest and two snipers on Kwajalein. One of the most famous fighters In the Pacific, Gomez had many a close shave. Once, when 200 Japanese Japa-nese were threatening 20 American soldiers, he and his "paL" Col. "Mickey" Finn, covered the American Ameri-can retreat and then leaped 40 feet off a cliff to escape the Japanese. Bushes broke their fall and hid their flight.

The test was conducted in 12 small fields from 1942 through 1945. All the fields had three-year rotations: rota-tions: corn, wheat and meadow. Six however, ware farmed with common com-mon practices; the other six with a conservation con-servation system. On the fields which had the benefit bene-fit of extra fertilizer, contour cropping, crop-ping, manure, lime and deep rooted legumes, the water loss from runofl for four years was eight inches, compared with 17V4 on fields farmed under the common system. Soil loss was only 1.8 tons under conservation conserva-tion against 8.8 tons with the common com-mon system. Organic matter losses were 492 and 978 pounds, respec tively, while those of nitrogen were 16 and 77 pounds; phosphorus 19 and 62; and potash, 10 and 24 pounds. Corn yields averaged 92 bushels per acre against 62 bushels on the common fields, in 1942. By 1945 the corn output reached 122 bushels per acre, compared with 71 bushels on the common fields. Wheat yields averaged 25 bushels and 15 bushels. Mil Mind Your Manners yOUR manners label you.
