THE WHY OF CLEAX SAXD AND GRAVEL Bulletin Xo. 7 from the Structural Materials Research Materials Lab¬ oratory, Lewis Institute, Chicago, has Just been received. It covers the effect of tannic acid on the strength of concrete Tannic acid is tlie injurious ingredient of organic matter which usually comes from surface loam and is generally pres¬ ent in unclean sand and gravel. The strength of concrete was reduced for all percentages ot tannic acid, for all mixes and all ages covered by the tests. "Less than one-tenth per cent of tannic acid in terms of the weight of the aggregate may reduce the strength of the concrete to one- half its normal value," The per cent of tannic acid is determined by colorometric tests, a description of which is attached. The report of the above tests is very valuable to sand and gravel producers. It is one of the strong¬ est arguments against the use of pit-run materials for concrete. It Is common knowledge among gravel men that pit-run material can not be supplied uniformly clean in com¬ mercial quantities. It may be true that a few wagon loads can be se¬ lected from a pocket but to depend upon such material is unwise.—In¬ diana Sand and Gravel Producers' Association's "News Letter."

FOOT BALL <JA>1ES WANTED The Sterling Billiard Academy which was formerly the United All Stars have organized for the season and would like to hear from some f.rst class teams.

RASE RALL The Edelmans A. A. ulil cross bats with the Nazareth A. A. on tne latter's field this evening at 5:3U o'clock. These two teams have met btfore in a close contest by the score of 9-12, favor of Nazareth su i' good game is expected. The bat¬ tery for Edelmans will be "Plckels' Michael, of Nazareth, and Kale, of Edelmans. Battery for .Vazareth, Douglas and Snyder. Marvin J. Hill, electrical contrac¬ tor, haa flnlBbed wiring the borne of Eugena Stocker on Soutli New atreet. Secretary of the Treasury Mellon —who, as Senator Norris stated in the Senate recently, always looks through the glasses of Wall street— wants the Federal tax laws revised. He would abolish the excess-pro¬ fits tax, reduce the tax on big in¬ comes and increase letter postage from two to three cents The excess-profits tax is really a tax on profiteering. No business riian who is receiving a reasonable return on his investment feels it, because he is entitled to get S per cent clear before the tax applies. Why should the profiteer be the flrst to benefit from tax reform? The Secretary tells us the tax on big incomes is being evaded. Rich men are dividing their Income among the members of their fam¬ ilies—their wives and sons and daughters—and thus getting away from the high rates. Secretary Mellon would save them the embarrassment of dodging the by repeating it. That's a nice scheme for the very rich but the ordinary citizen would prefer to see the law strengthened so it could not be evaded. The argument iu favor of increas¬ ing letter postage is that "the people will not feel it." That Is an old theory and it has been worked by tax collectors like Secretary Mellon tor centuries. If you take a dollar from the rich man he will kick. If you take a penny from the poor man he will not complain. Tiierefore, permit the rich to retain their dollars and separate the poor from tne necessary I-umber of pennies. It's a fine scheme and Congress may adopt it. If it does, we have an idea v.e will have many new faces in both houses after the next gen¬ eral election.

Department of Public Instnictioa Harrisburg, Pa., April 2, 1?21 Mr. C. J. Knauss Secretary Nazareth School Board, Nazareth, Penna D°ar Mr. Knauss: On March Sth we had a rinireseut- ative of the Bureau make an In¬ spection of the school building at Nazareth and he submitted the fol-* lowing report: The north wing of the building hag settled several inches, the walls have bulged about two inches and a. crack appears on each end ot the wing which continues to increase In size. The condition of the north wing is such that its use should be discontinued. The south wing is also settling but at the time of the inspection, it was not considered dangerous. If however, the settling continues, the use of the south wing must be dis¬ continued. The end walls are not in gool shape and there is a possibility fiat if the settling of the buiid'ng con¬ tinues, these wails will follow. Considering the condition of t,.<e present building, the plan of the interior and in order to provide tor future needs, we, therefore, recom- n end the erection of the flrst unit of a new building. The new struc¬ ture should be planned on the unit basis and additions made In accord¬ ance with the needs of the district and as finances warrant. We shall appreciate your advising us what action is taken by the Board for providing new accommodations and we ask that you be free to com¬ mand us if we can be of further service to you on the project.
