THIS TELLS HOW TO
FIGURE INCOME TAX


Don't wait until the final due date.
March 10, for paying yoalr Income Tax
and making your return. Avoid the
last minute rush. Any person can fig
ure out his liability today as well as he
can next week, and If there is any
point on which he needs advice he can
now get in touch with Revenue man."
This word of advice is being given
out by Internal Revenue men. Re-
turns and payments are being col
lected in Wisconsin by the following
Collectors of Internal Revenue
Paul A. Kenny.
Burt Williams.
Every aid of their Offices and field
forces is being given freely to the
public
But the Income Tax men will not
pull your door-bell or your coat-tails,
according to the Collectors announce
ment. 1t is squarely UP to every indi-
vidual to figure out his own case and
to get busy if he comes within the
scope of the new Revenue law.
Did You Earn This Much?
Every unmarried person who re-
ceived income eraging S19.25 a week
during 1913 and every married couple
who jointly received income averaging
$3.50 a week should secure at once
from the nearest Deputy Collector or
the nearest bank blank Form 1910 A.
That form contains the information he,
will need TO enable him to figure his
correct net income and any tax that he
owes the government.
The law requires that every unmar-
ried person who had a net income of
ST ,00U or over and every married per-
son whose net income was $1,000 or
over (including the income Of husband
or wife and the earnings of minor
children, if any must make a return
on or before March 10th. And this re-
quirement does not hinge on whether
the person owes a tax.
Taxable Income.
An individual must include under
gross income all gains. profits and in
come derived from salaries, wages or
compensation for personal service of
whatever kind and in whatever form
paid or from professions, vOcatiOns,
business, sales or dealings in property
of all kinds. interest rent, dividends
or profits derived from any source
whatever. Very few items Of income
are exempt.
Deductions include ordinary and nee
essary business expenses, interest paid
or accrued on Indebtedness, taxes of
all kinds except Federal income and
excess profits taxes and assessments
for local benefits, losses actually sus-
tanned, debts ascertained TO be worth
less and depreciation on buildings ma
chinery, fixtures, etc, used in business
A further deduction is allowed for con-
trbutiOns to corporations operated for
religious, charitable, scientific or edu-
catiOnal purposes or for the prevention
of cruelty to children or animals to an
amount not exceeding Is per cent of
the taxpayers net income as computed
without the benefit of the contribution
deduction.
The taxpayer is not allowed to de-
duct any personal, living or family ex-
penSe, any amount spent for improving
property or any expense of restoring
property or making good its exhaus-
ton for which an allowance is claimed
under depreciation

Figuring the Tax.


Before figuring the normal tax the
dividends are deducted as credits from
net income, together with the personal
exemption. AS in previous years, divi-
dends of domestic corporations are ex-
empt from normal tax when received
by the stakeholder
The normal tax rates for citizens
and residents are as follows: On the
first $4,000 of net income in excess of
the credits the rate is 6 per cent; on
any further taxable income the rate is
Il per cent.
The surtax rates apply to fiet in
come of each individual in excess of
$1,000 The personal exemption and
the dividends are not deductible before
computing surtaN. In the case of re-
turns by husband and wife, the net in
come of each is considered separately
in computing any surtaX that may be
due. Form 1910 should be used for
making returns of net income exceed
iDg $4,000, and the instructions on that
form will show how to figure the sur
tax.
Business House Returns.
Employers and others who paid
wages, salaries, rents, interest or sim
liar determnable gains in an amount
OF $1,000 Or over during 1913 to any
person must file an information return
with the Government. Blanks may be
secured from the Collector.
Every partnership must file return
showing its income and deductions and
the name and address of each partner,
with his share of the profits or losses
during the past year Personal service
corporations will file similar informa-
ton for 1918

Plenty Of Var Is Left
Despite Peace Treaty

THE signing Of the treaty between
Germany and the Allied ard as
sociated powers has brought peace
to only one part Of the world. Here
are some Of the conflicts still In
progress:
The Poles are fighting the Russian
Bolsheviki.
The Ukratnians also are at war
with the Bolshevih.
The Germans are fighting tho Lith-
uanians, who themselves ars at war
with the Bolshevih.
The Firms are fighting the Boil
sheviki
Civil war continues in Russia,
where the Bolsheviki are hard pressed
by their Russian enemies on several
fronts.
The Hungarian ot,nunists are
fighting the -Slovaks and the
Rumanians.
The seizure of Smyrna by the Al
lies has led to fighting between the
Turks and the Greek forces of occu-
patton.
On the northwestern frontier Of
India the Afghans are fighting the
British.
China is again in the throes Of
civil war.
Carranza is fighting Villa and other
rebel leaders for the control Of
Mexico.
In Costa Rica the Tinoco govern
ernment has driven the rebels over
the border into Nicaragua, and the
latter country, fearing an invasion,
has appealed to the United States
for protection.

occasion. Only a few saw Presi-
denS Wilson enter, and there was
only faint applause for him.
The hall was full. In addition to
the signers Of the document there
were present many guests Of honor,
among them the marshals and gen.
erals Of the Allied armies and the
presidents of the French Senate and
Chamber Of Deputies. Additional
tapestry covered benches had been
moved into the hall to provide ac-
commodations for all.
AS a contrast with the Franco
German peace session of 1871, held
in the same hall, there were pres
ent to-day grizzled French veterans
of the Franco -Prussian War. They
replaced the Prussian Guardsmen
of the previous ceremony, and the
Frenchmen to-day watched the cere-
mony with grim satisfaction.
Conditions of 1877

actly reversed. To-day the disciples

People Fight to Touch
Hands Of Leaders

President Wilson, M. Clemenceau
and Mr.. Lloyd George were caught
in the living stream which flowed
across the great space, and became
part of the crowd themselves. Sol
diers and bodyguards struggled
vainly to clear the way. The peo-
pie jostled and struggled for a
chance to touch the hands of the
leaders of the Allies, all the while
cheering madly.
Probably the least concerned for
their personal safety were the three
themselves. They went forward
smilingly, as the crowd willed, bow
ing in response to the ovation and
here and there reaching out to
shake an insistent hand as thew
passed.
Many soldiers broke ranks and
joined the celebration, while guns
doomed and low flying airplanes
seemed to fill the air. The three
leaders climbed in the same auto
mobile and drove away, the crowds
following and cheering.
The day had been declared holi-
day in Paris. Early in the morning
parades formed in different parts
of the city and a day of celebration
had begun that was to last far into
the night, with military torchlight
professions to complete the pro-
gramme.
In honor Of the occasion Premier
Clemenceau, as Minister of War,
had remitted all punishments in the
army, excepting such as corps COM
manders considered indispensable in
the interest of discipline.
In Versailles the scene around
the palace was animated from an
early hour. AS the morning wore
on the crowds kept increasing. By
noon eleven regiments Of French
cavalry and infantry had taken
positions along the approaches to
the palace, while within the great
court on either side solid lines Of in
tantry in horizon blue were drawn
up at attention.
Long before the ceremony began

lust i've years ago yesterday
the Archduke Francis Ferdi-
nand Of Austria and his morga-
matte wife, the Duchess Of Hohen-
burg, were assassinated at Sera-
jevo, Serbia, and thus the signing
Of the peace treaty came on the
anniversary Of the tragedy, which
is generally regarded as the real
beginning of the great European
war.
Austria's formal declaration of
war against Serbia came on July
%, 1914, just a month after the
assassination Of the heir apparent.
Counting from this date the war
continued four years and eleven
months, or 1876 days.

america Proud of You,'
Polk Cables to Wilson

WASHINGTON, Juno 2s-1mme-
" diately after receiving the news
Of the signing Of the treaty, Acting
Secretary Polk sent this message to
the President over the special direct
wire from the State Department to
Versailles:
Permit me to offer my heartfelt
congratulations on the completion Of
your great work. The American peo-
pie will be ever proud Of what you
did as their representative for the
peace Of the world"

stipulations more moderate and tol-

General Smuts said he believed
some Of the territorial settlements
would need revision, and he hoped
some of the guarantees would soon
be found out Of harmony with the
new peaceful temper and unarmed
state Of the Central powers. Pun
ishments were also foreshadowed,
he said, over which d calmer mood
might yet prefer to pass the sponge
Of oblivion
The protocol supplementary to
the treaty was signed by all those
who signed the treaty. The Rhine
arrangement was signed by tho
plenipotentiaries of Germany, the
United States, Belgium, Great
Britain, and France.
The proceedings were declared
closed by Premier Clemenceau at
3:45 o'clock (10:45 a. m. New York
time).
Paris Hears News In
Boom of Cannon
At 3:44 o'clock cannon began to
boom throughout Paris, announcing
the completion OF the ceremony of
signing. The signature had not,
however, as matter of fact then
been completed, for when the firing
began the delegates Of the smaller
nations were still signing in alpha
betical order.
The German delegates left the
hall first, the Allied representatives
remaining in their seats. Those who
had assembled in the hall then went
to the terrace to see the fountains
playing.
The most dramatic moment con-
nected with the signing of peace
came unexpectedly and spontane-
ously at the conclusion of the cere-
mony when the trio Of Allied leaders
reached the terrace at the rear Of
the palace, where thousands Of spec
tators were massed.
With the appearance Of the men
who have dominated the councils of
the Allies there began a most re-
markable and unprecedented demon
stration. With cries of "Vive Gle
menceauW "Vive Wilson," "Vive
Lloyd George!" dense crowds swept
forward from all parts of the spa
cious terrace. In an instant the
three were surrounded by strug-
Cling, cheering masses of people.
fighting among themselves for a
chance to get near the statesmen.
1t had been planned that all the
Allied delegates would walk across
the terrace after signing, to see the
great fountains play, but none of
the other plenipotentiaries got far
ther than the door.

across the approaches. While theo-
ret1cally only persons bearing passes
could get through this line, the
crowds gradually filtered past the
guards until the hollow square with
in was filled with hundreds who
crowded to the windows of every
wing Of the palace.
Huge Throng Gathers

Hours before the ceremony an
endless stream of automobiles be-
gan moving up the cannon lined hill
OF the Champs Elysees, past the Arc
de Triomphe and out through the
shady Bois de Boulogne. carrying

guests to the ceremony. The thor

In the mean time thousands of

self for places in the park.
The automobiles bearing delegates
and secretaries had reserved for
use the Avenue du Paris, the broad
boulevard leading direct to the
Chateau's Court Of Honor, French
soldiers being ranged down the
highway on both sides. At the end
of the court a guard of honor was
drawn up to present arms as the
leading plenipotontiaries passed, this
guard comprising a company of Re-
publican Guards in brilliant uni
form.
The palace entrance for the dele
gates was by the marble stairway
to the Queens Apartments" and
the Hall of Peace, giving access
thence to the Hall Of Mirrors. The
walls of these apartments were hung
with unique Gobeltn tapestries.
The route to the peace table for
the plenipotentiaries was through
space reserved for some four hun
dred privileged guests.
The Germans were given a sepa-
rate route Of entry, coming through
the park and gaining the marble
stairway through the ground floor.
There was thus avoidance Of occa-

reserved for the Allied representa-
tives. The dismounted guardsmen
