Especial to the Starr

Jacksonville, July 26.-Over 1900
people in Florida who are due the
government special interest revenue
taxes stand in fair way to be pen
allied fifty per cent additional. or
stand to produce fine up to $1,000
for willful negligence if they do not
make their settlement before August
1st.
Particularly does this apply to
owners and operators of pleasure
boats, or as the statute reads, Boats
operated for the pleasure of the own
er or for that of others Up to date
only about 1000 of these tables have
registered with the internal revenue
collector, who estimates that there
are approximately 5000 others who
have not registered and paid their
taxes.
"There are many special taxpayers
who have not yet made return for
the period beginning July 1, 1918,
and ending June 80, 1919, or foi
what is known as the present fiscal
year." said Collector Cathcart yester-
day. "The special taxpayers include
owners and operators of picture the
aters, pool rooms, ship brokers, GUS
tom house brokers, pawnbrokers,
public exhibitions, including amuse-
ment parks, cigar manufacturers,
cigarette manufacturers, tobacco
manufacturers, owners and operators
of pleasure boats and dealers in oleo-
margarine.
81 urge every person liable for this
tax to make settlement with the gov
eminent before August 1st, to avoid
being penalized. The latter is fixed by
statute, and those who fail to pay be-
fore the final date automatically be-
come penalized fifty per cent addi-
tional. When it is plain case of
willfully failing to make payment,
the collector is authorized to assess
fine of $1,000 in each case"

everybody in Ocala and the country
surrounding to observe it. It's only
a matter of everyone stopping half a
minute, and there are very few in the
country, or towns of this size, who
can't stop half a minute without in
convenience. But such a rule arbi-
trarily enforced all over America
would be nuisance, if not a tragedy.
It would throw the traffic of great
cities into a tangle. compel railroad
trains, ships and boats to stop, tele-
graph messages to be cut in two and
in ten thousand other ways obstruct
work that is vital. Matters of this
sort should be left to the individuals,
Or at the most to the community and
Congress should let them alone

The Star objects to the proposed
"angelus," or everybody stopping at
certain time each day. to offer
prayer for the success of our soldiers
and sailors. For one thing, "angelus"
would not be proper term for such
a ceremony, as anybody can see by
looking in the dictionary. For an
other, the Star does not believe in
saddling the people with ceremonials
that are only an empty observance to
many. People who sincerely desire to
pray for any cause do not need the
sound of. a. bell or the tick of clock
to remind them to do SO.
