THE INFLUENZA EPIDEMIC

Was the most serious of its kind ever
known, and the death rate was higher
the world over than was ever caused
by any other epidemic. Most of those
who were stricken and who were
lucky enough to survive its ravages
have been left in weakened condi-
ton and many with more serious
troubles which will become chronic
and recovery slowly. Blood examina-
lions in those who have had Influenza
show that the blood is impoverished

ceived as additional compensation.
A married person having children
under 81 who are working should in
clude the earnings Of such children.
"If he sold any property at prof
it, the gain. must be computed and
included in gross income. If he rent
ed city property to other persons, the
total rents received in the year must
be ascertained, and from that figure
a deduction may be taken for taxes
paid on rented property, the neces-
sary minor repairs, any interest he
may have paid on mortgage, and a
reasonable allowance for annual
wear and tear of the rented property.
The balance is included in gross in
come for the year.
Includes Bank Deposits.
Interest on bank deposits, wheth-
er withdrawn or added to his bank
balances, must be included in all
calculations of income. Bond inter-
est received during the year must al
so be included, except interest Sor
municipal county or state bonds.
Interest on United States bonds need
not be included by the ordinary bond
holder who purchased small
amounts. Holders of large amounts
however, should ask their bank
ers to write to my office for the rule
applying to tax on such interest.
Dividends on stock shares are in

In Figuring Profits.
"A person buying and selling mer-
chandise must find his profits for the
year on the following basis First,
ascertain the gross sales or total
cash receipts. Then add together the
inventory at the beginning of the year
and the purchases of goods for re-
sale. From this latter sum subtract
the inventory Of goods on hand at the
years end, and the result is the cost
Of goods sold. This cost, plus nee
essary expenses incurred solely
through conduct Of the business, is
to be deducted from the gross sales,
and the result is the net earnings OF
the business.
"A professional man arrives at his
professional income by ascertaining
the total of fees for services and de.
Quoting therefrom all expenses con.
nected directly and solely with his
practice.
All Profits Included.
"A farmer must figure up all in.
come derived from the sale or ex.
change Of products during the year
whether such produce was raised on
the farm or purchased and resold
He is allowed to deduct from this
total his expenses of the year con-
nected with the planting, cultivation
harvesting and marketing of the
crop, orr the care, feeding and mar
keting of live stock. He is not allow
ed to deduct the amount expended
in 1918 in purchasing stock for re-
sale; but when such stock is sold
it's cost is to be deducted from sale
price in ascertaining the gain to be
included in his return of income
The cost price of stock bought prior
to 1917 cannot be deducted as in the
case just cited, il such cost was in
cluded in the deductions made in the
year of purchase.
"The farmer is not required to in
clude in his income tax computation
the value of farm produce consumed
by himself and family. But in cases
where he exchanges produce for

"After the total of all income is
found, and the deductions allowable
by law have been computed as an off
set, the amount of income in excess Of
such deductions is the net income,
which forms the basis of the assess
ment of tax.
IF every person in this district will
examine his own 1918 income and his
allowable deductions, In line with data
that have given, he will know beyond
doubt whether he must file his return
when the blanks arrive. And here is
how he will determine his liability to
file return. If he is single he must
file if his net income was $1,000 or
more, and this requirement is enforce
ed whether or not he is the head of a
family. If he is married, he must file
his return if his net income, including
that of his wife and minor children,
was $1,000 or more.
Purpose is Cooperation.
II want TO emphasize the co-opera-
ton feature Of the collection of the
income tax this year. The policy of
the internal revenue bureau is to aid
taxpayers to meet the requirements of
the law. We are going right to the
people, not to swing clubs or to mulct
the wage-earner of his savings, but Of
fering every helpful governmental
function that will assist people to do
their duty"

W ar Profits Lessened
BY Amortization

Loss which is seriously confronting
some business concerns is the pos
sible sudden depreciation of plant
and equipment and vessels which have
been constructed or acquired after
April 6. 1917, for the purpose Of filing
contracts which were contributorv to
the prosecution of the war. In other
words, many concerns have constructed
new plants or made additions to their
old plants which were used for the
purpose Of filing war contracts and
whose value and use are reduced 10
nominal amount by the discontinuance
Of such work. The new bin takes care
of such losses by permitting a reason
able deduction for amortization of such
property. The provision is so worded
that the Treasury Department. any
time within three years after the re
turn is filed, may readjust any dcduc-
ton which has been taken in the tax
payers return. The law does not place
any limitation upon the amount which
may be taken in any one year, beyond
the qualification that it shall be reason
able, which leaves the matter of the re-
turn to the judgment of the taxpayer.
