TAX FORMS ISSUED
First Step Taken to Get Returns
ON Taxable Funds

The form to be used and regula-
tions to be followed by individuals
in making returns of incomes sub
ject to the new Federal income tax
have been sent out by the treasury
department. Every citizen of the
United States, whether residing at
home or abroad, every person re-
siding in the United States, and
every resident alien who has
income from United States invest
ments of $4,000 or more, must
make such returns.
For the last year 1918, specific
exemptions will be So, 500, or $3,-
1888 in the case of a married per-
son. and in future years, $1,000
and $4,000. Where the tax has
been withheld on part of the in
come at the source, or where part
of the income comes as dividends
upon stock of corporation which
is taxable under the corporation
tax section of the law, the regula-
ton set forth that such income
be deducted from the Individual S
total income when computing the
amount on which he is taxable.
The law imposes a tax of l per
cent and provides that individuals
who have an income over $40, 900
and not more than $5O'O0O shall
pay an additional l per cent on
such amount; on all over $50, 900
and not over SIS, 900, 2 per cent;
on all over $4,000 and not over
500, 900, 3 per cent; all over $780,
600 and not over $3.50, 900; per
cent; all over S25O.OOO and not
over $500, 900, S per cent; and all
over $500, 900, 6 per cent. Returns
must be in the hands of collector
of internal revenue in the district
where the pavee lives or where he
has his principal place of business
not later than March 1, failure to
observe this time limit to be pun
ished with fines ranging from $40
to 81 900.
Refusal or neglect to file returns
except in case of sickness or alb
sence, will result in an addition of
so per cent to the tax assessed.
In case of false or fraudulent
returns, 100 per cent will be added
to the tax assessed, and any person
required to make, render, sign and
verify such return, who makes a
false or fraudulent statement with
intent to defeat or evade the tax,
will be guilty of a misdemeanor
and subject to fine of not more
than 1000 or Imprisonment for
one year or both.
An extension of thirty days from
March /, in case of sickness or alb
sence, may be allowed by the pro-
per collector, provided an applica-

respect, MOnSy, uoWSVSi, SnoCau
be plenty for legitimate trade and
industry in 1914, and the absence
of burdensome stocks, owing to
long-continued hand d-to-mouth buy
ing, should be helpful. 1t will not
be forgotten thai many crops were
short in 1918, and prices, particu-
larly of food, were high, which
may have helped agriculture as a
whole, though no country ever
made much money out of its own
shortages. AS to 1914 crop condi-
tions, it may be said that said con-
ditions are favorable and winter
wheat is in excellent shape.
The matter of possible railway
rate advances presses for early solu-
ton. All of the advantages asked
for in past years would have been
insufficient to save some badly
managed enterprises from the ef-
fects of their own sins, but the JUS
tice, indeed the absolute necessity,
of allowing the railways to recoup
themselves for high cost of opera
ton can hardly be denied. In this
matter the auguries at the outset of
the wear are thought favorable, and
if they prove so should have an i'm
portant effect in stimulating de-
ruand for a variety of articles which
move through the marts of trade.
Whether any great liquidation in
commodity prices is possible in
1914 is doubtful, and without that
the often predicted liquidation of
labor seems to partake of the nature
of a dream. High costs of all
operation, in fact. seem to have
come to stay, but it'dSes seem pos
sible to make progress in the matter
of reducing the worlds most use
less expenditure, that for arma-
ments. Time will, perhaps, be
needed to heal the bruises; they
were hardly deep.seated in
iuries that the business world re-
ceived in 1913, but past experience
would seem to indicate that, lack
ing any serious damage to the busi-
ness fabric. of which there are no
really tangible signs, a eorupari-
lively quick revival from the quite
visible in many lines should ensue,
governed, of course, by the money
and crop developments of 1914"

LOOK FAVORABLE
Outlook for Business in Coming Year
is Favorable

Bradstreet's S review of the bust
ness year says that 1913 was a
year of disquiet and dissappoint-
ment alike in foreign and domestic
finance, trade and industry. The
disquiet was worldwide, though
until the latter part of the year not
so much in evidence at home and
abroad. There was more cheerful
ness in the closing weeks and the
forecast for 1914 is encouraging.
The forecast follows:
The liquidation in the stock
market in 1913 was apparently
thorough without being panicky.
Trade and industry in turn showed
symptoms of an orderly retreat
rather than of a precipitate flight,
and since the improved feeling not
ed in the latter weeks of 1918 set in
less is heard of rumors of business
troubles in this and other cities.
The complete history of the 1902
O3-04 collapse and quick revival,
some of whose earlier happenings
were closely parralleled in 1918,
will repay perusal because holding
some lessons and indeed some en-
couragement. 1t is generally con-
ceded that while the entry of in
dustry into the stock market in a
capitalized form has made it more
sensitive to unfavorable happen
ings, it has also made it quicker to
improved influences.
The best judgement seems to
support the view that money, the
great desideratum in finance and
trade, will be both cheaper and
easier to obtain in 1914 than in
1913. The passage of the currency
bill is expected to be an aid in this
respect, whatever may be thought
of ultimate effects of the possible
initiation of the new measure, which
has supplanted seriously defective
system. Of course, any i'll consid-
cred rise like that of 1895, with its
aftermath of deep depression, is to
be avoided, and the possibilities of
Europe endeavoring to further IL
quidate its burdens in American
markets are to be considered in this
connection, though our immense
credit balance may help us in this

STOCK SET ASIDE
Fifty Thousand Shares for Steel
Employees

The officials of the United States
Steel corporation will this year offer
their employees both common and
preferred stock at lower prices than
they paid for the shares last year.
The employees will get the stock at
the ruling market quotations,
which are sos for the preferred
and $57 for the common. A year
ago the employees paid 500 for. the
common and $1Oo for the preferr-
ed.
The stock will be sold under the
profit sharing plan made effective
several years ago, and will be paid
for in installments, as in the past.
1t is announced that rs, 900 shares
of each class of stock will be set
aside to be sold to the employees,
but this does not mean that the
men will be limited to those
amounts.
Last January the corporation
sold 34,351 shares, of preferred and
rs, ,793 shares of common to its en-
ployes. If the demand for the
stock is as good this year as it was
last the allotment of $4,000 shares
of each class of stock will not sup
ply the demand. 1t is likely that
there will be better demand for
the stock this year, as it will be Of
fered at lower prices.
Many employees on this range
who took advantage of the plan the
first year it became effective have
long since paid for their shares and
they have received dividends ever
since the first year. Several issues
of both the common and preferred
stock have cost more than the prices
quoted for this years allotment.
Several hundred of the company's
employees on the Mesaba & Yer
million ranges are stockholders, and
most of the company's older work
men in other districts in the Lake
Superior country have also bought
shares. The number of shares
that each employe can purchase is
limited, according to the amount of
his wages.
