FARMERS INTERESTED

Farmers are more interested
than any others in the income
tax meeting TO be held at the
Auditorium Wednesday even
ing. Business men have ample
opportunity to meet the income
tax agent and discuss matters
with him. They also keep reg
ular sets of books. so figuring
their incomes is comparatively
simple. With farmers it is diff
ferent. Comparatively few of
them know what deductions
are allowable. II will be TO
their interest to hear the eX-
plantations of Mr.. Bixler. ask
all the questions necessary TO
give them the information need
ed. so they will know whether
or not they are liable to pay
an income tax. how to make out
their reports, etc At least one
representative farmer from
each precinct should be pres
ent. No one wishes TO see any
one penalized because of lack
of understanding of what is
required of them.

DRAFT BOARDS INSTRUCTED.
Crowder Tells Local Officials to Use
Common Sense and sympathy.


Local draft boards have been in
structed by Provost Marshal General
Crowder to use common sense and
sympathy in the facts of each indivi-
dual case in determining what would
be adequate support for dependents of
a man registered for war service.
Many boards have indicated doubt
as to what should be done when it ap-
pears that a soldiers pay and war
risk allowances will provide support
for dependents whose claims other
wise would entitle the registrant to de-
ferred classification. In a message
made public Monday night General
Crowder said:
Reasonably adequate support must
be determined with common sense and
sympathy in the facts of each individ-
ual case. The question of adequate
support must be determined by the
boards after fair and impartial con
sideratiOn of the dependents on the
one hand and of the government on
the other. and with the thought al
ways in mind that the present clas-
sification scheme is designed to raise
our armies with minimum of hard
ship and suffering to those who are
left at home"
To clear up doubt existing on 9th
er points, General Crowder gave tn,
following supplementary instructions
