Ottumwa tri-weekly courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1903-1916, 1913-11-20

Editor Courier:
The article in last nights Courier
entitled young girls must keep off
streets" attracted my attention, and so
far as 1t goes it meets with my hearty
approval, but what about the boys and
men who loaf about the street cor
ners and "accost" the girls and women.
There Is no use in trying any longer
to regulate morality from one horn Of
the dilemma. Bring the "stragglers"
of both sex to the police station.
Sociology is training its batteries
against this double standard in morals
and law makers are learning that the
sex hitherto unreached by legislation
is very largely responsible for the
Damaged goods" vice we would so
like to wipe out of our city and our
nation. All honor to Chief Gallagher
for even an attempt at checking this
vice but he will never get anywhere
so long as he only recognizes one Of
fender in these street transactions. So
long as society generally spits on a
woman who goes wrong and smiles on
the man who goes exactly the same
way. y

and vaccinated them within a week
after purchase, and these are all
healthy. 80. ...... ,.
In explanation of his theory for the
death Of the thirty-seven hogs that
died after vaccination, Mr.. Lind says
that he believes the serum used had
been exposed to varying temperatures
and thus its effectiveness was
destroyed. The serum, he stated, was
brought out, to the country from Of
tumwa during the hot period in the
late summer and the temperature was
SO high that in his opinion it des-
troyed the life Of thesvaccine used to
a very great extent. f., :
In administering the serum and
virus to his hogs he stated that a
quantity of serum was injected into
one of the hind legs and a portion Of
the virus into the other rear pedal.
He said, however, that in the case OF
the hogs that were already infected
with cholera he used only serum. The
symptoms noted in most Of his sick
hogs were swelled ears, and they died
rapidly. .

MUST REGISTER
LICENSES soon
AUTO PERMITS FOR 1914 MUST BE
TAKEN OUT BY THE FIRST OF
THE YEAR.

Secretary of State w. s. Allen has
sent out q letter regarding the regis
tration of motor vehicles in which the
law governing this class OF machines
is made very explicit. All owners
must register their machines on jan
Iuary / for the coming year, and to
avoid the usual rush during the last
week, the secretary has announced
that he will receive applications dur
ing the months Of November and De-
cember to facilitate the work. Owners
who have acquired their vehicles since
July 81 may get their license upon
payment of one-half the usual rate. All
applications for license must be
sworn to before a notary public prior
to being sent In. A great many appli-
cants neglected this formality last year
and some delay was occasioned in get
ting the license as result.
The last number issued at Des
MONIES for an auto was 74,060, or a to-
tai Of $4,000 automobiles in the state,
as tho first Ave thousand numbers
were reserved for motorcycles.
The completion of the factory num-
Der index system has been practically
completed as relating to all autos reg
istered prior to last January, but all
of the new machines registered this
year will not be indexed until next
summer.
It required $4,000 cards to record all
automobiles licensed before the first
Of the year. A large number of these
cars were minus factory numbers and
as a result the index Is not complete.
Under the old registration. law the
owner was not required to give his
factory number.
With the completion Of the factory.
number index system dozen en-
ployes in the secretary's ONCE will be
out OF employment. The retrenchment
and reform committee appropriated
money from It's $4,000 contingent
fund for the secretary to compile the
index. All the money allowed for that
purpose was expended, 1t is said.
The new system was recommended
by the efficiency engineers. It was at
the request of the committee on en-
trenchment and reform that it was
adopted.

holding of tax is required, and in the
case of the individual whose interest
amounts to more than $4,000, the norm.
al tax must be deducted unless he (or
she) makes claim for exemption; and
that no withholding of tax is required
in cases where the interest is not in
excess of $4,000
He is not required to withhold any
tax unless such interest to be paid
subsequent to Oct. 81, 1913, amounts to
more than $4,000.
Q.-What is a mans income, any
how? Is it all, the money he Is able to
collect during the year, or is it the net
profits of the years business? If a
man pays out for fuel, labor, and ma
terial for the year $4,000, and collects
for his manufactured goods $4,000,
what is his income-S1,000 or $4,000?
If farmer pays out $4,000 for cattle
and feeds crop of grain and hay, and
sells them on the market for $4,000,
what is his income?
A-The concern here is the indi.
vidual's net income. The $4,000 the
merchant or manufactures gets for his
goods is income -gross income; the,
$1,000 he has left over after selling
goods and paying costs, his profit, or
net income The farmers income Is
what he receives for the grain and hay
on the hoof less the amount paid out
for labor, in taxes on the farm, in in.
terest on borrowed money, and the
other deductions allowed in the law.
Q.-Are school bonds exempt from
the income tax? Our school district
is bonded and the bonds are held by a
life insurance company in this state.
A.-School bonds are exempt from
taxation and it will not be necessary
for you to hold out the tax thereon at
the source, nor will it be necessary for
the holders of said bonds to file exemp-
ton certificates with the coupons.
Q.-The insurance company employ.
ing me as agent Is holding out one
per cent on sums due me as commits
sions. Has it the right to do this?
A.-Replying to your inquiry as to
whether the insurance company EN-.
ploying you should withhold at the
source normal tax of one per cent on
commissions paid you, you are advis'
ed that If all your compensation is in
the form of commissions the source
should not withhold the tax, the re-
sponsibility in this event being upon
you to make return Of net income. ii
said income exceeds $4,000 year.

The treasury department has issued
the following instructions, which will
serve to answer numerous recent
interrogatories:
Coupons (or orders for registered
interest) payable In the United States,
representing the interest on bonds
owned by nonresident aliens, must be
accompanied by the prescribed certt-
lations of October Is, 1918, but this
certificate may be signed either by
the owner himself (herself or them
selves) or in behalf of the owner by a
reputable bank or bankers, or other
responsible collecting agency, certify
ing to the ownership of the bonds and
giving the name and address of the
bona fide nonresident and alien own.
ers, and when such certificate Is thus
attached the normal tax of one per
cent on such coupons or interest or
ders need not be withheld at the
source by the debtor or collecting
agency.
Banks, bankers, trust companies,
and other banking institutions receiv-
ing deposits of money, are not requir-
I'd under the treasury regulations
(part p, approved October 81, 1913, to
withhold at the source the normal in
come tax of one per cent on the inter
est paid, or accrued or accruing to de-
positors, whether on open accounts or
on certificates of deposit; but all such
interest, whether paid, or accrued and
not paid, must be included in his tax
return by the person or persons en-
titled to receive such interest, whether
on open account or IN the certificate
of deposit.
It has been called to the attention
of this Office that banks in certain
sections are refusing to pay coupons
for interest on bonds Of states,
counties, cities, or other political sub
divisions of the United States, when
such coupons are not accompanied by
certificates of ownership, without de-
Quoting the normal income tax of one
per cent, which the law and the regu-
lations of this department require
shall be deducted at the source in pay
ing the interest on bonds of corpora
tions, joint stock companies. or asso-
Citations and insurance companies.
The income derived from the inter-
est upon the obligations of state,
county, city, or any other political sub

division thereof, and upon the obliga-
lions of the United States or it's pos
sessions, is not subject to the income
tax, and certificate of ownership in
connection with the coupons or regis
tered interest orders for such interest
will not be required.
The interest coupons should clear
ly show on their face whether they are
issued by the United States or any
political subdivision thereof. If, how
ever, they do not clearly show this,
then of course, an ownership certi-
flcate should be required.
When a note shall have been given
in payment of interest, rents. or other
income accruing after March 1, 1913,
and said note natures on or after Nov.
/, 1918, the maker of the note, as the
debtor" and as the source" where
the income originates, is required, in
paying such note, to withhold the nor
NAL tax of one per cent on the entire
amount Of the note, /. said note Is in
excess of $3,000 unless claim shall
be, made for exemption Of $4,000 or
$4,000 Gas the case may be- under the
provisions of paragraph c., section 2
of the act; and If such claim for ex-
emption shall be made Gas provided
for on form 1O0D, then the said tax
shall be withheld only on the amount
of said note in excess Of the exemption
claimed In said certificate.
If any person who has purchased or
discounted any of said notes may have
omitted, in acquiring them from prev
ious holder, to make deduction or
allowance for said tax, such purchaser
can only look for relief to the person
from whom he shall have gotten the
notes, and the debtor the maker Of
said notes, will be held liable for and
be required to deduct, withhold, and
pay to the collector of internal rev.
enue the amount of the normal tax Of
one per cent which may be due there
on under the law and these regula-
lions. .&1 -as--
Q.-Must an agent collecting inter
est on farm mortgage loans withhold
the tax on such interest when it ex-
ceeds $4,000 in single year, to an in
surance company the same as to In
dividuals?
A.-The commissioner Of internal
re venue has ruled that in the case Of
insurance companies, if same are tax
able upon their net earnings, no with
