Evade Draft
(UnIted Press Leased Wife.p

ALBANY, Or, June "a Ger
man woman's influence over her
son caused him to disregard his
desire to obey the draft call. As
a result Mrs. Elbertina BRANDED,
SO, and her son Edwin, %, are in
Jail here.
After his arrest Edwin told fed
eral officers he was willing to
join the national army, and offer
ed to go unaccompanied to camp.
Before they accepted his offer,
they talked with his mother.
Mrs. BRANDED bitterly declared
her son should not join the army.
She said the draft law was uncon-
stitutional and attacked the SUI
preme court which has declared 1t
constitutional.
/ Edwin had not appeared when
called In the draft. He and his
mother were taken and charged
with violating the espionage law
after officers had broken thru the
door of their home.

TAX
is RE-ESTABLISHED
Department Fears Some viii
Fail To Make Income Returns.

Parkersburg, March 6.-The re-es
Establishment Of the partnership in
come tax return by the Internal Rev
enue Department is causing some
concern at the local office in charge
of Collector S. A. Hayes. The local
officials fear that many partnerships
throughout the state are going to fail
to make this return through mis-
understanding OF the law. The in
come tax law does not tax partner
ships, but the excess profit law does.
Many members of partnerships are
going ahead under the idea that If
The partnership makes an excess pro
fits return and they, themselves, make
their individual income tax returns,
they>have fully complied with the law
This IL not the case. for the Com
missioner OF Internal Revenue has
lately decided to require the filing OF
an income tax return by all partner
ships whose income was $4,000 OF
more for the taxable year. No in
come tax will be- assessed against
this return, and it will DE used only
to establish the correctness OF the
partnerships excess profit return and
the individual income tax returns OF
its members.
The fact that no partnership in
come tax returns were required last
year places both the partnerships and
the Collectors force under a handi
cap--the former OF Ignorance of the
law and the latter Of time The list
Of partnerships at the Collectors OF
| flee has not been corrected for two
years and is therefore out OF date
Under these circumstances many
partnerships will not be reached with
blank forms from the Collectors oil
fee. 1t is therefore necessary thai
each partnership take this matter up
on itself, and make every effort tC
secure return blank. Form 1865
