Johnson, D., Colo; said today he would press for early enactment, of an amendment amend-ment to the excess profits tax law which would grant special treatment of mining; industries forced to increase their - output by demands of national defense. . The amendment,' which would set up a new basis for calculating: calculat-ing: excess profits taxes, will: be ottered to a general tax administration adminis-tration bill that will follow the $3,633,900,000 revenue measure pending before the senate, Johnson John-son declared. Under nis plan, he explained, excess profits would be calculated calculat-ed on basis of units of production instead of total production. As an example, he cited the. case oX a mine which produces 1,000 units of ore at a profit of two dollars a unit in normal times and 2,000 units at three dollars a unit in emergency times.

KVA GELLESPEC BINGHAMTON, N. T. UH Weaker vitamin pills to aid defense de-fense are urged by Dr. Henry Paul. He explained that too many plfts and mixtures are overloaded with vitamins and thus encourage waste of these elements which should be conserved to bolster the national health. "For example," explained Dr: Paul, "if a person requires 4,000 units of a certain vitamin a day. that person gets as much as 10,000 units in some capsules and ex tracts." The excess vitamins win do no harm, but also no good. A reduction reduc-tion in amounts, he added, would prevent any shortage. vSi;-' vSi;-' Vast fields of knowledge 'on the" use of vitamins still remain un- tapned by research, he declared. "We still are not well acquaint ed with the vitamin necessities of old people since the work so far has dealt mainly with young peo ple and young animals. "Now that the old-age problem is increasing due to greater lon gevity, a study of the changing food habits and vitamin require ments or older persons may lead to a cure for many old-age ail ments." Dr. Paul mentioned the effect of vitamin B in relieving nervousness as one of the more obvious values of vitamins in aiding the nation's defensive strength. Vitamins, he stressed, should be used to fortify a person's diet, not replace it.
