NEW INCOME RULES
DEFINE EXPENSES
Concessions to Professional
and Business Men, as Well
as Farmers.
DOCTORS ARE AFFECTED
Simple Method Of Computing
Net Profits Suggested by
Collector Edwards.
DOCTORS ARE AFFECTED

Liberal deductions for business ex-
penses are allowed by the new revenue
law. William H. Edwards, Internal Rev.
enue Collector. explained yesterday.
Business expenses" are the amounts
actually paid or incurred during the tax
year in the conduct OF business, trade
or profession. In computing net income
a merchant may find his profits on the
following basis:
First ascertain the gross sales and
the other items Of gross income, such as
interest on bank balances and miscel-
laneous items. Then add together the
inventory at the beginning of the year
and the cost of goods purchased for re-
sale. From this sum subtract tho in
ventory at the end OF the year and the
result is the cost OF goods sold. This
cost. plus necessary business expenses
Ii TO be deducted from the gross sales
and other income, and the result is the
net income of the business
II the taxpayers accounts are kept on
a receipts and payments basis the re-
turn may be made in accordance there
with.

NERVOUS SHORTS COVER
Final Quotations Are Slightly
Down From Fridays Finish,
With Spots Also Off.
NERVOUS SHORTS COVER

The steadier tone in the cotton
market continued in yesterdays two
hour session, with professionals supply
ing most of the activity. The announce
ment by the bureau of the census of the
consumption for August aroused only
little comment, but as that report was
bearish some scattered selling occurred
The bureau made the consumption dur
ing August In the United States 5O2,536
bales against 509.793 in July and 534,-
914 in August, 1918. August exports
amounted to 473,S72 bales, against 2S7.-
$50 in August of last year. Active
spindles amounted to 34.1S7.31o during
last month. against 34.1S4,407 in July.
The tropical storm. of which little
further that is definite has been heard,
still caused considerable comment
among map readers, the weather being
interpreted generally as bearish, as no
important moisture was recorded.
Steadiness featured the opening with
first sales 10 points higher to lower.
There was some covering by nervous
Wall Street shorts in fear of serious
turn in the storm situation over Sum
day, but immediate offerings were too
heavy and the first half hour saw a
slightly lower market. A substantial
rally followed the down turn, however,
the higher carrying the list from 20 to
80 higher than its last previous finals.
Support was not we'll sustained and
frequent dips were the rule. Week end
statistics were generally disregarded,
but the further weakness in foreign eX-
change was a bearish factor Of second
airy Importance. Prices were slightly
down from Fridays finish at the close,
with spots also lower.

PBNzANcE, Cornwall Sept. 13.-Corn-
wall threatens to outrival Southern Cali
fornia as a film producing centre. Along
the Atlantic coast, strange scenes of
passion and pathos have been enacted
in the granite Fashioned coves of Corn
wall, which is rapidly supplanting Cali
fornia's golden plains as a setting for
picture dramas. The golden locked hero
ines and heavily dyed villains have be-
come quite common figures in the switch
back streets of the Cornish cliffside vii
lagos, and the gentle purr of the cinema
camera has been heard everywhere,
mingfing with the deep burden of the
Atlantic breakers
These film visitors have been well
coined by the Cornish native as a source
of excellent free entertainment and Of
occasional profit. The old salts of New
lyn, who have long been accustomed to
sit for painters, have been in great de-
mand as cinema types and have readily
adapted themselves to this new devel-
opment of the model business. In time
the wealth of scenery and sunlight to be
found in the granite peninsula will see
the British film producers sitting there
permanently as the Americans have in
California. Devon is already the home
Of more than one film concern.

No War hmm unity.

All the papers, whether in favor Of
the league or against it, admit that
Switzerland will have to surrender her
neutrality II she joins. Neutrality and
membership in the league exclude one
another. 1t has been agreed in Paris,
in alleged conversations but not on pa
per, that Switzerland would not be
called upon to take part in a war OF
execution in a military sense, but she
would be required to participate in eco
nomic measures against the enemy. The
Swiss people well know that you can
not separate economic warfare from
military warfare. In this respect the
late world war has been an illuminat-
ing example. The Swiss people have
enjoyed the results of economic war
fare and they are still enjoying some
of the after effects They know an
enemy is bound to attack, militarily as
well as otherwise a country that was
waging war, whether confined to eco
nomic war measures or not For eco
nomic measures may decide the outcome
of the war more forcibly than military
operations. There are people who be-
lieve the late world war was decided
by economic blockade more effectively
than by guns and bayonets.
The question as to how the league
would affect Switzerland from a military
! point of view was submitted to the Ma
tional Council of Defence, body COM
posed Of the leading military officers Of
| Switzerland. This council. by a ma
jority vote, decided TO warn against
! jouing the league. 1t decided the
question from purely military stand
point. The recommendation signed by
the councils majority has been kept
secret by the Government, who de-
cided to disregard it. The press and
public are now demanding the docu-
ment should be made public, as the
people are entitled 20 know all about
the dangers confronting them il they
should Join the league and SwitZer
| land become the principal battle-ground
, Of future war, as predicted by the
I highest military authorities of the
/ country. =
| The date of the special election to
/ decide the momentous question has not
! been fixed. 1t was to have been this
month. but It will probably not be called
until the treaty has been ratified
| by three principal Powers. Switzerland,
| being between the devil and the deep
sea, is putting off the day as long as
possible hoping something will inter
vene. If the American Senate should
intervene there would be general re-
joicing. America would again ingra-
tiate herself with her poor little sister
republic now in deepest distress and
pleading for help.

affected the other nations cannot expect
fair decision
The Zurich Gazette says:
THE establishment Of n League OF
Nations was the last OF the fourteen
points President Wilson announced as
the objects OF the war. The Entente
nations reluctantly accepted point IL
because they wanted Wilson's coopera-
tion in framing the peace terms accord
ing 20 their own wishes. Those wishes
England. France and Italy had agreed
upon In secret conference long before
Wilson arrived in Europe. In making
these secret agreements the subscribers
70 the fourteen points ruthlessly vio-
lated point one, declaring for open cove
nants, to begin with
supporters scepticaI.
Even the advocates OF the league ad-
NIT they are filled with mlsglvings ana
doubts, but they insist that political
aspects should be ignored. They base
their reasons for joining the league upon
economic grounds. They promise US a
revision of the covenant They tell us
the Central Powers would soon be ad-
mitted to membership, thus eliminating
the danger Of Switzerland becoming the
principal battle-ground in the next war.
They argue we might as well join the
league, for IL we should not join we
would be compelled to do the very things
the Entente wants US to do in case of
necessity. We are assured that Ger
many could not very well find fault with
us for joining the league so long as
Germany herself was only too glad to
join II permitted. But are we really
to base the future of our nation upon
hopes so vague, upon fears and upon
futile speculations?
THE League Of Nations is a COM
PROMISE. arrived at by the big Victors
after severe strife. 1t is idle to think
that Switzerland could induce these
victors to change one iota OF their cher
ished plan. Besides. any improvements
would not amount to anything. OF
course Germany would like to be adj
mitted to membership In order to escape
the yoke Of slavery placed upon her
shoulders. But for this very reason she
viii not be admitted. In consequence.
the enmIty between the league on the
one hand and Germany and her friends
on the other hand will increase and be-
come more intense as the years pass by.
Thus another war is inevitable. Swift
zerland being a member of the league
will have to take part in this war. II
not member OF the league she will
probably have to fight just the same.
But In that case at least we shall have
| saved our honor. Let us at least main
/ tain our independence until we are
forced to give it up. Let US not sur
render it voluntarily. Let US uphold
| our hdnor!"
