Of THE
INCOME TAX LAW
General Public Need Not Worry
About the Matter Until
Next January.
FIRST RETURNS FOR
TEN MONTHS OF 1918
Thereafter They Are to Be Made for
the Full Calendar Year-Heavy
Penalties Prescribed.

While it might take a philadelphia
lawyer to figure out the intricacies of
the income tax law to which every one
will soon be subject, as it applies to cor
porations and those with Carnegie and
Rockefeller incomes, the plain citizen is
not going to have SO much trouble in
finding his own status under the new sys-
tenn of taxation.
The income tax provision of the new
tariff law as it was amended by the Sen
ate is an appalling and fearsome collec-
ton of technicalities. Young barristers.
find good pickings in advising clients how
the law affects their interests, but in
the end the commissioner of internal
revenue will have the last say.
The public at large need not begin to
worry about it until January l next, and
then will have three months in which to
fight it out with their consciences as to
how much of their actual income they
will return for taxation. The returns
are to be made this year for the last
ten months of 1913, and thereafter to be
made for the full calendar year.
If YOU have an income of $1,000 for
those ten months or less you need not
worry. If you are a single person and
the income is over that, get out your
pad and pencil and begin to figure. But
if you are married, you need not take
notice unless your income is over 5000.
and if you have one child in addition to
the wife, not unless your income is over
$500. and if there are two children,
81. 0G0
But here the exemption on account of
children stops. The poor man with ten
children gets no rebate. although their
upkeep diminishes his income.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1913-07-12

The rule about corporations is different
and this article deals only with persons
and those having incomes under S2O,0vU.
Others would best consult their lawyers If
they want to know the ropes
Well, suppose you are single, with an
income reaching more than $4,000 for
the last ten months Of 1915? You will
pay per cent on all the income in ex-
cess of that $4,000. If married, and no
children, you will pay per cent on all
in excess Of $1,000 up to $4,000, when
the law claps on a little more tax.
Income means gains from whatever
source derived. IL you. are a profess
sional man then fees from your prac-
tice are included; the rents from your
houses, dividends from your stocks, all
must be Jumped to show your net in
come.
Why, if you made a lucky turn in the
stock market or came out ahead in a
years opening of jackpots you must
turn in the accounting. Auction bridge
counts. too. if you win, but your losses
there will not offset income from your
salary.
II you are merchant you are allow
ed to Offset the money you pay your
clerks, your rent. light. etc. but you
cannot charge off on your books any
thing on account of your own time or
services rendered in your business, nor
expenses Of your household.
