INCOME AND EXCESS
PROFIT TAXES

That there will be no general exten-
sion of time beyond March 18th for
the filing of returns and for the pay
ment of income and excess profits
taxes due on that date, is the decision
of Daniel G.. Roper, commissioner of
internal revenue. The announcement
was made by Collector Williams i'm
mediately following the approval by
the Senate and House of the report
of the conferees on the new revenue
bill
"It is necessary to get the initial
tax payments in by March 18TH" says
Commissioner Roper. "No other
course is possible. Some months ago,
the Treasury issued certificates of in
| debtedness to an amount approximate
ing $500, 900, maturing March 18th.
| The first payment of the Income and
Excess Profits Taxes for 1918, was
| planned for that date, to meet this
huge obligation.
The American people have proven
| that there is no emergency too great
to be met and solved by cooperation
| This present situation is another
emergency which can be overcome by
cooperative effort. The Bureau ex-
tends its every force toward this end
and l am relying upon the people to
meet the situation whole-heartedly.
The Internal Revenue Bureau must
carry out the programme prescribed
in the new law, which requires all
returns for 1918 to be filed on or be-
fore March 18th, 1919, and requires
the first quarterly payment or the
fn hn hn
fore that date.
Every taxpayer who can possibly dc
so is urged to make full payment OF
his income tax or or before March
18th. The quarterly payment method
is intended for taxpayers, whose fin
ancing of the tax at one time would
end to upset local financial conditions
| The approval of the report of the
conferees by the Senate and House OF
Representatives brings the new Rev.
enue Bill to the point, where it may
be assumed to be law. The Internal
Revenue Bureau has been making
preparations to collect the taxes,
which it provides, and is now putting
all of its efforts into aiding the tax
payers to fulfill the obligations i'm
posed.
The Bureau has arranged to send an
advisory force of several thousands
of deputies and agents to assist tax
payers. These officers will be sta
toned at convenient points, where they
may be consulted without charge. Tax
payers should take the initiative and
get in touch with these Revenue men
| for any needed advise and assistance
in preparing returns.
| The forms for the tax returns are
being printed and all forms will be
in the hands of Collectors between
February 18th and March 1.
| Envelopes have been addressed by
the collector to mail forms to every
| individual and corporation in the dis.
trict who filed a return with the col
lector of internal revenue, covering
the year 1917 or filed a return with
the state officials upon which state
| income tax was assessed. These
forms will be mailed Immediately upon
receipt by the collector of internal
revenue.
