unmarried persons, and more than
$4,000 in case OF married persons
without children. In other words.
the tax is doubled on incomes of 81,
900 more than the specified exemp-
ton. In addition, So-called surtaxes
superimposed on the regular or nor
NAL tax are assessed on net incomes
of more than $4,000, the additional
rate being 1% for the first $1,000
above that sum, 20 for the next $4,000
and 1% for each additional $1,000.
Both the 12% rate and the surtaxes
may be ignored by persons with in
comes less than $4,000.
After the tax is figured a person
must count at least on paying of
the sum by March Is. The second
installment of is due June Is, the
third one-Quarter Sept. Is, and the
last installment Dec. Is. Penalties
are provided for failure to file on
time or to pay the tax promptly, and
tax officials welcome returns and pay
ments before March Is. Payment in
full by March Is on the ground that
the government needs the money,
will also be welcomed.
A husband and wife whose COM
bined net income for 1918 amounted
to $1,000 or more must file return
either separately or jointly. If sepa-
rate returns are filed, either may

Within the next three weeks, or by
March IL, every unmarried man or
woman who earned ST. 900 or more in
the calendar year 1918, and every
married person whose income was
So, 200 or more must make detailed
report of his income to the federal
revenue collector of his district. On
or before March Is the first Install
ment of the income tax must be paid,
one-fourth of the entire amount due,
or all Of it if the taxpayer chooses.
This means chat millions of Ameri-
cans must get to work at once to pre-
pare their returns, and for tie guild
ance of taxpayers the inJernal reve-
nue. bureau has issued explicit in
structions covering the preparation
and filing of returns.
The tax for most people is So. For
a single person, that is imposed on
the difference between the total net
income for the year and $1,000 the So
called exempted amount. For mar
,ied man, or for tile head of a family,
the exemption is $1,000, and the 81
tax is imposed on the difference
between that and the total income.
There is provision for an additional
exemption of 5000 for each child or
other dependeno person, under Is
years of age or incapable of self-suD-
port. Thus married man with one
child or an aged parent would have
an exemption Of 1920 and would
pay tax on the difference between
this and his net income. A
man with two children would have
an exemption of S2,400; three child
rem, So, 600, and so on.
To illustrate the calculation of tax;
A single man with a net income
last year Of $1,000 will be taxed $50;
income Of $4,000, tax S12O; income of
81, 900, tax 1886; income $1,000, tax
S24O.
A married man without children
and with an income of So, 500 will pay
tax of $50; income of s., OOO tax $50;
income of $4,000, tax sl2O; income OF
S., 900, tax $3.50.
The regular or normal tax is 12% on
incomes of more than S., 900 in case Of

Promoters of the No Beer No Work" idea
don't want to forget that the government can if
it wishes, have something to say about enforcing
the laws made by an overwhelming majority Of
the people. Another weak point in the argument
is that men who must have little drink in order
to work are as rule pretty well in need of
their little old pay check when ever it comes so
we don't look for startling upheayal of the wage
earners when the country goes dry although many
prominent newspapers would have it appear so.

A 20 year sentence for Victor Berger and his
associates sounds good until it develops that the
sentence is as yet only on paper The appeal to
higher court may reverse the whole proceedings
and even should the recent decision be affirmed
the various angles of legal procedure will enable
the defendants to escape life in a federal prison
for about year. What congress will do in the
matter of unseating Berger is rather uncertain,
and we expect to see the policy of .watchful
waiting pursued by that body pending the final

Unless supplies are furnished when cabled
for, our armies will cease fighting" Thus said a
cable from Gen. Pershing to the war department
on Oct 3D. and which was read in Congress this
week. Another instance of the many that proves
that it was luck and not efficiency that saved
the lives of several million American soldiers had
Germany been able to continue fighting for another
year or more. Not many people expect to fight
wars without killing men but such wanton waste
of lives as were lost in France, and would have
been lost had the foe fought on, is utterly without
defense and due more to incompetence and jealousy
among those of authority in the war department
than to lack of ability to procure the necessary
equipment for the overseas army. The task was
big and wonderful things were accomplished, but
much more could have been accomplished had the
Washington pay roll army followed the advice
given by England and France from the start and
not upon the comfortable assurance the war was
$1,000 miles away"

come as voters, our heroic soldiers,
who have sacrificed so much, and all
other good citizens, to join in this

I'LL Is Quiet in Berlin,
Says Election appeal
By Ebert TO Germans

LONDON. Jan. Is Wednesday).-
Order has been restored in Berlin, it
is announced by an official wireless
appeal to the German nation sent out
by the German government to-day and
picked up here. The appeal, which
was signed by Premier Ebert and
Philip Schiedemann, Herr Landsberg,
Gustave Noske and Herr Wssell mem
bers of his Cabinet, says that the gov
ernment is determined to prevent by
every means at its disposal a repetition
of "similar abominations.
The appeal refers to the coming
elections, under the "freest suffrage in
the world to determine the constitution
of the German state" and adds that the
present government is preparing a
draft ofoa constitution which protects
the tree right of elf-determination
Of the nation against all counter revo-
lurons or efforts at terrorism'
Efforts are being made, it is said. to
arrive at peace safeguarding the
freedom of the German nation, ana
which will render possible the founda-
ton of union of nations which will
give protection against the danger of
q fresh war"
After declaring there is necessity of
defending the nation against Polish
annexations, the appeal concludes:
NO less is it our task to protect
our frontier against fresh Russian
military despotism which wants to force
upon US by means of war-like powers
its anarchistic conditions and unchain
q new world war, of which our country
wol Id be the theatre. Bolshevism
means the death of peace, of freedom

guns.
