The gasoline tax Is deductible Id filing Income tax returns whore the language of the state law specifically lists It as a tax on the consumer, ac-cording to a bulletin Issued by the legal department of the Chicago Mo-tor club. The bulletin pointed out that It Is clear that the consumer always pays the tax, regaiuess of the wording of the law ; therefore, the consumer should be allowed a deduction In all instances. Inttrprstatlon of Law. "However," continued the bulletin, "the bureau has put a strict Interpre-tation 01 the state gasoline tax laws In th rulings already made. Conse-quently, In states where the bureau rules that the cnsoltne tax snnlles to the dealer, the only remedy remain-ing for those states Is to amend and clarify the state gasoline tax laws so that the language of the act specifical-ly levies the gas tax on the consumer. "The gasoline tax In force In the various states this year will yield t total of approximately $37.1,000,000, which, If construed as a tax on the consumer In the various states, would amount to a considerable saving to the motoring public. Tax Deductible. J. B. Braun, general counsel for the club, declared that the bureau of In-ternal revenue has already ruled that the gas tax Is deductible under an Interpretation of the laws of Dela-ware, Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, New Tork, North Carolina and Vir-ginia. On the other hand, If the tax Is added to or made a part of the business expense of the owner of such motor vehicles, it cannot be deducted separately as a tax. The motor club attorney asserted that decisions have also been rendered by the bureau with respect to the states of Colorado, Connecticut, Mary-land and Ohio, holding that under Its Interpretation of the gasoline tax laws of these states, the tax Is levied against the dealer, and therefore la not deductible by the consumer In filing bis Income tax returns, Few Simple Traffic Rules Will Make Travel Safer Relieving that the careful . observa-tion of a few simple truffle rules will materially help In making travel safer on the highways the United States National Chamber of Commerce bas prepared the following recommenda-tions for 'drivers of automobiles: 1.

C.) monastery and village of TUB near the Tibetun border China, which was recently the scene of a massacre by Moslem soldiers, was an outstanding type of the Lama communities tliut dot western China and Tibet. The site of Choni Is In the south-western part of Kansu Province. Though It was the capital of the do-main of the prince of Choni, It was merely a village of 400 families, ap-proximately 2,000 Inhabitants. The natives of this region are of Tibetan origin; to fact, there are few real Chinese In the neighborhood. The vil-lage was by far the best situated spot In Kansu Province, and the prince's territory was the choicest hit of land Nowhere else in Kansu are there bin h forests, and the scenery Is unsur-passed. The village probably clumped but little during the six centurlts of Its existence. The Tao river, which flows Ing the Tandjur blocks, and the claim Is made that the books printed here are without mistakes, the best edition known. The printing blocks of both classics were more than COO years old. It took sixteen years to carve the blocks of the Tandjur alone. The Choni Prince suggested movable type, hut the lamas refused to entertain the Idea. It took 45 monks three months to print the Knndjur and nearly six months to print the Tandjur. This does not Include the time consumed In preparing the paper for the printers. The paper used is bought at Kung-chan- In eastern Kansu, 11 days dis-tant from Choni. It Is very thin, and the monks pasted eight sheets to-gether to make one for the book. When 317 volumes are prluted, one can surmise the time and labor spent The Library of Congress In Wash-ington, D. C, obtained a complete set of the two classics from the Choni lamasery. These were packed In 02 Iwivaa nni( tmn he eta rn van uovan Ha m a third of a mile below the south gate. furnished the water for the town and the lamasery. Women carried the wa ter in wooden buckets to the town, and the poorer monks conveyed It the additional 500 feet to the lamasery. Little of this water was used for cleanslug purposes. The monks, there-fore, reeked of rancid butter and grease, and their skin was black from the accumulated filth of yeurs. Even lama officials do not bathe, although their faces appear washed. Their priestly garments of red Lhasa cloth are unwashuble; and since few of them have more than one garment, the clothing Is saturated with odors so strong that It is difficult to expel the scent from a room after even a short visit by a small group of Inmas. Monastery Is Extensive. Choni monastery or what remains of It Is surrounded by a wail of loess (a peculiar deposit of loum) pierced by a lurge stone gate looking sooth. Upon the gate Is the Inscription : Chi Ssu Chan Ting Ssu (Bestowed by Im-perial Command Temple of Abstract Tranquillity). A memorial stone of 1736 records that the tablet for the monastery was written by Emperor King IIsl himself in 1710 as a fuvor to Chih Lien, a Choni priest, who paid him a visit After his return to Choni, Chih Lien Is said to have con-tributed 8,000 tneis of sliver a great sum at that time toward the build-ing of temples and chanting halls in the monastery. Within the walls are 172 buildings, not including 10 large and small chanting halls. During the reign of Yung Lo the monastery boused 3,800 monks, but recently only 700 have resided there. Of the 10 chtinting hulls In Choni two are fairly large. The one most frequently used faces a square in which the lama dances are performed and the hotter festival Is relehratpd.

There they remained through the whole siege of the town. They did reach Shanghai, however, after being more than a year on tbe way. Ceremonial Dances. Great ceremonies, conducted regu-larly each year In Choni lumnsery, were few. There was a dunce on the 13f of the first moon ; the butter festival whs celebrated n the Kith, and another dance was performed on the 16th. The Sunning of the Ruddha took place In the spring, on the HOth day of the sixth moon fell the Old Dance, Chamngyon-wa- , probably the most interesting of all the ceremonies. There Is a dance on the 24th of the 10th moon, fallowed on the 2ftb by the Feast cf Lights, which commem-orates the ascension of Tsongkapa, with yet another dance on the 20th day. Every third year, on the 10th of the first moon, the Choni lanms cele-brate the Installation of a new presld Ing priest by a peculiar festival known as 1 e Chon Clinker. The time between ceremonies wns occupied by the monks In chanting on certain days, but otherwise mainly In loafing. In case of Illness of wealthy believers, the lamus were asked to chant the classics, believed to have a salubrious effect. The charge for opening the largest chant-ing hall wus 300 taels of silver ($200). To expedite the reading of these vol-uminous works, MM) assembled lamas divided the pages and each rend por-tion of the text n rather disconnected method, but apparently it matters lit-tle If the beginning, ndddle, and end are read at the same time. It was thus possible to read the 10S volumes of the Kandjur In a day. ball Is flanked by three other build-ings. The largest chanting hall, a struc-ture probably 200 years old. Is Im-mediately back of the first. It can accommodate about 400 monks. The roof Is supported by 80 lurge pillars of wood lacquered red. Tbe nmln Idol In this hall Is Wutnfshan, or Clmmby-ang- , the God of Learning (the Chinese Wen Shen, Cod of Literature). On festive days this hall was beau-tifully decorated with brocades. From the celling were suspended long cere monlnl umbrellas, and the pillars were sheathed In magnificent hand-wove-carpets, the gift of the Monirol king of the Ala Shun. The hall was opened only on special occasions, such ns the Feast of Lights, when the monks as-sembled at night to chant the cIhssIcs Complete Set of Tibetan Classics. A building to the left of the main chanting hall contained a lurge oc-tagonal prayer cylinder of wood, with doors. Within It was kept a complete set of the Knndjur and Tandjur, the chief Tibetan classics, the former comprising 108 volumes, the Inter the commentary 209 volumes. To the cylinder were attached slender burs with carved figures, by means of which the wheel cojld be set In motion. With one revolution the devotee said tbe contents of the 317 volumes Indeed a quick way of saying prayers. Priceless josseesions of Choni tain asery were printing blocks of both the Kandjur and the Tandjur. A num ber of other lamaseries, such as Derge and Itadja, have blocks of the Kand Jur, but rarely of the Tandjur. In fact, Choni Is Bald to have been the only monastery outside Lhasa possess Youngest Executive in Automotive Industry Barlow II.

' Proper Care Will Make Tires Last Much Longer Tires, among the most neglected of all motor-ca-r essentials, can be made to rendr remarkably greater efficiency with Improved economy, by systematic and Intelligent care. This point, often emphasized by tire engineers, has been conclusively proved ta a year's test, results of which have been computed. On a metropolitan bus fleet select-ed for the test, a saving of 448 bus tires with a total of 7,213,706 tire-mile- s, at an average of 20,047 miles to the tire, was affected, according to tbe data available. Under the care of an expert tire man the tire mileage of this entire fleet la declared to have been In-creased 67 per cent In one year and records for the first three months of this year show an Increase of 00 per cent over 1926. The tire expert took charge of tire Inspection and tire care at the beginning of 1027, it was ex-plained.

Congregation "Fed Up" on Ten Virgins' Sermons It Is still customary In rural dis-tricts In Scotland for the minister to preach a series of sermons around one Scripture text. The parable of the Ten Virgins had been selected by an old minister for a series of ten ser-mons, In which he took one virgin at a time. Many of the church folks were heart-ily tired of the subject at the end of a week or two, but it was left to the beadle to tell the minister the truth. Asked by the good man as he was disrobing him In the vestry one eve-ning how he was enjoying "my an-alysis of the characters of the vir-gins." the beadle replied brusquely: "The halp congregation's fair scun-ner- t wl' them. sir.
