SUPPORT OUR PRESIDENT
To the editor of The Pilot:

To the Editor of The Pilot:
1t is regrettable that our leading re-
publican senator's who have so Loyalty
and impartially supported our demo
cratic president in the prosecution OF
the war by which it was so graclousiy
ended, should now, when the president
has gone to Europe to reap the fruit oil
our victory, hamper him in his noble
endeavor to help form league OF ma
tions under which war shall be
abolished forever and law substituted.
In this trying hour the senators
should continue TO stand behind the
president more than ever, as ii will re-
quire the greatest harmony to attain
the world lasting peace all were fight
lag for.
Owing to the nagging Of our presi-
dent by some of the leading republican
senators, the foreign papers are get
ting suspicious that our president has
not the united support Of his own
country, while our and the people the
world over Except a few seldshly in
terested" have, and regard the abolish
ment Of war the greatest reform OF the
ages. This fact should tie made known
to the peace conference, by resolution
or otherwise, so as TO remove any false
impressions that may have been formed
owing to some speeches in our senate.
There has never been such a favor
able time rs now to get the nations TO
agree to join any organization under
which they will be protected from at
tack and relieved Of the immense sacri-
fee they must make to be continually
prenared. The eptentes have now the
absolute power TO formulate and en-
force the edict Of such league, the
only question is can they agree, which
in the light Of the past should not be
difficult and is most promising, as all
the people hope and pray for lasting
peace.
Therefore, our senator's should at
this time give our president their
united, hearty support at the last and
most important stage Of our war. II
our senate, and every other nation Is
senate, should attempt to formulate
and discuss a league Of nations they
would most likely get nowhere
President Wilson, all will admit, is
recognized as the strongest advocate
for a world lasting peace, has studied
this question deeply, believes honestly
in the principle and will labor intense
y for the adoption Of a league of ma
tlons. Whatever the final peace treaty
may be, we may be assured that he
Will try to the utmost to have it the
best attainable, and lay it before the
senate for ratification.
The people Of the world are looking
toward President Wilson and the
mighty American union behind hun
as the savior OF mankind, so let us not
disappoint him.

Aerial Comnasses.

Many difficulties had to be over,

among these was that of neutrallzlnp
the magnetism of the engine (and IN
particular the magneto). and of pre-
venting the effect OF centrifugal force
which caused the card or dial inside
the compass to swing In a direction
quite Independent OF north when tn
airplane was banking on turn. How

Giving Louise and Virginia two
dimes we sent them to the drug store
to get some stamps. They were in
structed to get stamps with one dime
and the other they could have for ice

back, each enjoying a cone, but had
no stamps. When asked where the
stamps were Virginia said "Well, we

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 stOckhOlder.
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 per cent; on
aQy further taxable income the rate is
II per cent.
The surtax rates apply to net In
come of each individual In excess Of
$1,000. The personal exemption and
the dividends are not deductible before
computing surtax. In the case of re-
turns by husband and wife, the net
income of each is considered separate
ly in computing any surtax that NAV

This Tells How to
Figure Income Tax

"Don't wait until the final due date,
March 18th, for paying your Income
Tax and making your return. Avoid
the last minute rush. Any person can
figure 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 from Alfred
Franklin, Collector Of Internal Reve-
nue., Phoenix, Ariz., who is collecting
the Income Tax In Arizona and New
Mexico. Collector Franklin is giving
without charge every aid of his office
and his enlarged field force to help the
people get their payments and their
returns in by March 10Th.
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 Much7
Every unmarried person who receiv-
ed income averaging $19.25 a week
during 1918 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 q blank Form 1O4O 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
81, 900 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 18th. And this re-
auirement does not hinge on whether
the person owes 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

whatever. Very few items Of income
