REVENUE MAN IS
 GIVING TIPS ON
 GOVERNMENT TAX
Charles C. Johns Tells Coast Resi- dents About New Tax
 Requirements.

In addition to income taxes there are a number of other federal taxes which apply to residents of Alaska, according to Charles C. Johns, deputy collector of internal revenue, who is visiting the different towns along the Alaska coast for the purpose of Investigating the war tax conditions.
 "All carriers transporting freight or passengers. said MT. Johns, "by rail or water, or in competition with rail or water transportation, are re- quired to render monthly returns to the collector of internal revenue and pay tax of 8 per cent on freight charges and per cent on passenger fare collected" Stamp taxes of varying amounts" continued Mir. Johns, "are payable on stock certificates, deeds, promis- ory notes, powers of attorney, prox- ies, stock transfers, etc., and all such instruments not having tax stamps attached, are invalid"
 Motor boats which are used for pleasure are required to be regis tered and pay a yearly tax, the amount of which depends on the size and tonnage of the craft" con- tinued MT. Johns.
 A fine of S1,O0O or imprisonment or both, and in addition thereto, a penalty of double the amount of tax evaded, attaches to any person or corporation failing tc make re- ports, making false or fraudelent reports, failing to collect, account for or pay over the tax, or for evading or attempting to evade the tax.
 | After covering the coast country,
 MT. Johns will extend his investi- gations to the Interior of Alaska.
