Collector of Internal Revenue
Justus s. Wardell, San Francisco, has
announced that out of 175,000 persons
in his district, which includes 48 coun-
ties in Northern California and the
state of Nevada, who are directly
affected by the new income tax law,
less than 10000 had up to this time
filed their returns. This situation, he
points out, is in the face of the fact
that the law makes it imperative that
all returns must be filed not later
than March I, and prescribes severe
penalties for failure to do so.
With three Sundays and two legal
holidays taken from the remaining
days of the short month of February,
there is a scant two weeks left or
10000 persons to file their inc oms
tax statements.
II am constrained to view this situ-
alton with an element of alarm" said
Collector Wardell. while / do MT
think the failure of the people to meet
promptly the requirements of the in
dividual features of the war revenue
act is because of any fixed opposition
to the law, the fact remains there is
an apathy and apparent neglect which
will cause serious inconvenience to
thousands of income taxpayers unless
they act at once and send in their
statements.
Trained deputies have been sent
throughout the district to assist the
people in understanding their obliga-
tions and preparing their required
personal returns. These deputies have
their headquarters III the industrial
centers and have for weeks been
radiating into the surrounding towns
and farming communities. In San
Francisco and some of the larger
cities scores of branch offices have
stores and newspaper offices to make
it convenient for the people to perfect
their returns. 1t is therefore up to
them to do their part and do it irlme-
diately."
If you are single and your net
income for 1917 was $1,000 or more.
you must file return.
If you are married and living with
your wife or husband, as the case may
be, and you had a net income of $4,000
or more in 1917, you must file a
return.
For failure to make return on or
before March /, 1918, fine is from $40
to $1,000 plus so per cent of the tax
due.
For false or fraudulent return there
is a penalty of not exceeding $4,000
fine or one years Imprisonment o.
both, plus 100 per cent of the tax due.

.ernany's Policy
In Finland Shows
Real Aims of Hun

AMSTERDAM, Aug. 14.-Dis-
cussing the Vaccinations going on in
Finland and the Baltic provinces to
provide thrones for German princes,
the socialist newspaper Vorwaerts, of
Berlin, gives out note of warning.
"The new thrones to be erected
in the east are not only threatened
from within but from without" the
newspapers say. "The world war is
not ended. The new monarchies are
based on the quicksands of the Brest-
Litovsk and he who desires to make
the Russian border provinces a branch
establishment Of the German dynasty
must consequently acknowledge as
his aim the military domination of the
world by Germany.
This craze for thrones in the east
shuts the door upon a peace by un-
derstanding and stakes everything on
a military decision. The question in
evitably arises whether the situation
in the west justified such a policy"

President Wilson
Goes to Mass.
Few Days Rest

WASHINGTON, Aug. 15.-Presi-
dent Wilson, after long conference
with Secretary Lansing yesterday af-
ternoon, suddenly decided to visit his
friend, Colonel House, at Mangolia,
Mass. He left Washington at 8
o'clock last night on special train.
It is officially stated that the presi-
dent is off for rest, but neverthe-
less there is a distinct feeling in dip
lomatic circles here that the trip rep
resents events of first magnitude
which are brewing and which are
most significant. International prob
lens, such as the Mexican, Russian
and Bulgarian situations, any one of
which may be the reason for the
presidents trip.
Mrs. Wilson and DIR. Grayson, the
presidents private physician, accom-
panied him.

Our First Defeat,
Says Hun Paper

AMSTERDAM, Aug. 1.-THE
military writer of the Berlin Zeitung
Am Mittag, in preparing the German
public for a further retreat of the
German forces, says:
'If to avoid further fighting we
are Withdrawing to new positions,
thereby allowing the enemy to at
tack with great losses, we are serv-
ing our aims better than by sacri-
ficing our best men in an obstinate
struggle for pieces of ground. The
decisive moment has not yet come"
German newspapers are asking
pointed questions concerning reverses
in the west and are caustic in their
comment A Berlin dispatch to the
Post of Munich complains of the at
tempts of certain German official
circles to conceal the truth from the
people. 1t says this has done meal
cuIable harm and is largely respon-
sible for the public bitterness.

Must Cut Out
Your Loafing

The local board has received in
structions from Governor Rye call
ing attention to the fact that
throughout the state, and especially
at the depots along the line of rail-
ways, men are seen IN throngs almost
daily, sitting around in idleness.
Most of these men are those who
have been placed in deferred classes
from one cause and another, and on
this account they seem to feel that
they don't have to work. The boards
have been instructed to make rigid
investigation concerning these condi-
tions, and where the case warrants it,
that action be taken and these loaf
ers will be re-classifed and placed in
the service of Uncle Sam.

Fight or Die Is
Hun Command

LONDON, Aug. ia dispatch
to the Daily Mail from Vladivostok,
dated Sunday, says the Germans al
ready are conscripting Russians on a
small scale.
According to stories of prisoners
taken by the Czecho-Slovaks," says
the dispatch, German flying columns
are impressing males from 18 to As
years Of age, and are bringing those
who dsiobey the mobilization order
before Germanized revolutionary tri-
bunals, which condemn them to
death.
"These conscripted units have Ger
man company and platoon command
ers and are stiffened by twenty Ger
mans or Magyars to every sixty Rus
sians."

Will Confer
On Prisoners

Formal acceptance by Germany of
the American proposal for a confer
ence on treatment and exchange of
prisoners at Berne, Switzerland, "the
middle of September" was transmit
ted to the state department yester-
day through the Spanish foreign of
fee.
The German government already
had accepted the proposal in prin-
ciple, and though no time had been
fixed, the United States appointed
delegates, headed by Minister Gar
rett, at The Hague, to attend the
conference. Questions relating to
interned civilians also win be dis
cussed.
