 Geo. & Co.-Under the law as en- acted in 1913, partnership, when requested by the Commissioner of In ternal Revenue or any district col lector, was required to render a re- turn of the earnings, profits and in come of the partnership. (Section 107D
 Under this section there was no general call during 1915, 1916 and 1917. In 1918 a call was made for partnership returns with a net in come of s6,0O0 or more. The Com missioner of Internal Revenue even at that time had the right to require returns from partnerships having a net income of less than $6,000.
 In the proposed law the matter is not any further left to the discre- ton of the commissioner but it is made mandatory for each co-part- nership to file return no matter what it's earnings.
 There is no tax on partnerships provided for in the law as il has been reported by the Senate, but 9 co-partnership return must be filed in order to give information to the com missioner with which to check up the returns filed by the individual co-partners. This. however, may be changed in that cO-partnerships may be subject to excess profits and war taxes when the revenue law is finally passed.
 R. D-Urder the provisions of the proposed Revenue act incomes of in- dividuals are not subject to the ex- cess profits tax. There is. however, a graduated scale of surtaxes on in- comes in excess of s5.00o varying

"Ask Dad" That was the favorite
plan in days gone by when boys and
girls wanted ponies, bicycles, trips or
circus money. But times have chang
ed. We've had war and young Amer.
leans have learned something about
thrift-the kind of thrift that means
earning as we'll as saving.
Canning, poultry and pig clubs have
become institutions in most every
county. Government Thrift and Sav.
ings Stamps have won their way into
the hearts of the youngsters. And the
combination solves the juvenile prob.
lem of getting money for things the
young hearts desire. They're earn
ing the dollars now with pigs, poultry,
eggs and tomatoes and they're putting
The Era-leader., 1919-10-23

their earnings to work by buying Gov.
ernment savings stamps which pay 4
per cent interest, compounded.
Marie Bradfish cleared something
like $3.50 in one year on tomatoes and
poultry, according to the club records,
and won prize at the state fair. Eula
Trantham's profits from her garden
and chickens amounted to $3.50. Ern.
est Johnson saved $500 Of profits from
his pigs and had finished hogs on hand
valued at $500. Willard Attaway
started out with one pig and later, at
the state fair, showed q herd that re-
quired six pens to accommodate.
That's how the thrift boys and girls
in the South are getting money for
Thrift and Savings Stamps and other
things they wait.
