DON'T YOU DARE

TILL BILL COMES

Income tax payments are neither
wanted nor desired at the Internal
Revenue office until bills have been
rendered. These are now being made

going over the accounts and fixing
or ratifying those already turned in.

ton by the middle OF Nay. The tax
payers will have until June Is to set
tie with the Government.
The reason assigned for not want
ing settlements at this time is that
much additional labor would be sad
died on the clerks. Upon receipt OF
a check II would be necessary to hunt
up the Schedule and figure on the
correctness OF the returns. II these
are in proper shape the payee would
have to be notified and a receipt

to audit a small account as one in
volving a million dollars and not in
frequently there is much more work
attached in searching the records.
All this can be avoided II the tax
payer will wait until he receives the
bill prepared by the Internal Revenue
accountant. which is accepted as cor.
rect. On each is a reference to the
book number. which makes IL easy for
the clerks at the local office TO find
the account and quickly dispose OF it,
With the enclosure OF the bill and
the check the taxpayer avoids pos

Most OF the taxpayers have been
apprised of this fact, and conse-

been made up to this time. Most Of
