People with cash in banks are still
seeking local real estate bargains A
well-known realty man recently found
clients willing to turn loose the saw
ings Of lifetime if they could turn a

600. The agent was instructed to pick
out undisputed bargains, and ne
hasn't spent the money yet.
In the last two or three weeks theirs
has been more of a tendency to put
money in safe Investments rather
than in bargains, and this explains
why trading has been better The
desire Of the would-be buyer to pick
up sacrifices and of the would be
seller to sell at the usual advance
has kept the two apart some time. So
far the latter has had all the best Of
it, and money that might have been
enhancing at the rate of 20 to so per
cent in real estate has been drawing
per cent in the banks.

TO PAY Dc * INCOME TAX!
Those Who Should Have Paid and
Did Not Make Returns viii
Be Sorry.

Milwaukee, who should
have paid an income tax last year
and avoided doing so by not maxi
ing return will have to pay double
the amount
Last year being the first during
which the income tax law was in
force, several hundred people who
should have paid taxes managed to
evade them" said Income Tax AS
SCISSOR Carroll Atwood Some re-
ceived report blanks and instructions
but failed to make returns, and some
through oversight did not receive
them. The people in the latter class
are not better off than those in the
former, however, as every one who
ought to pay tax must make a re-
turn, whether he receives a report
blank and instructions or not.
1.-THE law provides that where a
person who ought to pay does not
40 so h must pay double the
amount. This will probably be the
only punishment inflicted, however,
as / believe that there was no in
tention to Gefraud, at least in a great
many cases ! wish to call the at
tention of those who ought to pay
income taxes to the loss which will
be sustained by not making return,
whether they receive blanks or not. :"
