INCOME TAX RETURNS MUST
BE FILED BEFORE MARCH is


Washington, D. c., Feb. 25.-
Work on the collection of $6,000,.
100000 has been begun by the Blu.
reau of Internal Revenue. This is
the estimated yield of the new rev.
enue bill. The income tax provisions
of the act reach the pocket-book Of
every single person in the United
States whose net income for 1918
was $1,000 or more, and of every
married person whose net income
was $4,000 or more. Persons whose
net income equalled or exceeded
these amounts, according to their
martial status, must file return of
income with the collector of internal
revenue for the district in which they
live on or before March 18th.
Here is what will happen to them
if they don't, for failure to file a
return on time fine of not more
than $1,000 and an additional as
sessment of rs per cent of the
amount of tax due.
For "wilfully refusing" to make
return on time, fine of not exceed
ing $4,000, or not exceeding one
years Imprisonment, or both.
For making a false or fraudulent
return, fine of not more than $780,
900 or Imprisonment for not more
than one year, or both, together with
an additional assessment of SO per
cent of the amount of tax evaded.
For failure to pay the tax on time,
a fine of not more than $1,000 and
an additional assessment of 5 per
cent of the amount of tax unpaid,
plus l per cent interest for each full
month during which it remains I'M
paid.
In addition to the 81, 900 and ST.
900 personal exemptions, taxpayers
are allowed an exemption of 5000
for each person dependent upon them
for chief support if such person is
under eighteen years of age and in
capable of self-support. Under the
1917 act, this exemption was allowed
only for each dependent "child.'" The
head of family-one who supports
one or more persons closely connect
ed with him by blood relationship, re-
lationship by marriage or by adoption
is entitled to all exemptions al
lowed a married person.
The normal rate of tax under the
new acts per cent of the first $4,-
900 of net income above the exemp-
tons, and IL per cent of the net in
come in excess of $4,000. Incomes
in excess of $4,000 are subject also
to surtax ranging from / per cent
Of the amount of the net income be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 to 65 per
cent of the net income above 81, 0O0,-
600.
Payment of the tax may be made
in full at the time of filing return or
in four installments, on or before
March 18th, on or before June 18th,
on or before September 18th, and on
or before December 18th.
Revenue officers will visit every
county in the United States to aid
taxpayers in making out their re-
turns. The date of their arrival and
the location of their offices may be
ascertained by inquiring at offices of
collectors of internal revenue, post
Offices and banks. Failure to see these
officers, however, does not relieve the
taxpayer of his obligation to file his
return and pay tax within the time

 Miss Bondfe1d made a vivacious ad- dress and got warm applause. Finney was more staid in speech, as he is in appearance. He predicted labor gov ernment next for England. Walsh was bit frey. He said there are two main extremes in the Canadian labor move ment now, one conservative and one radical. He hoped that soon they'd hit a sound middle coures. Suzuki smiled a happy smile and said his aspiration was for continued expansion of democratic opportunities. He put i'll a strng word for the League of Nations.
 Here are some of the things Miss Bondfeld said:
 It is very vital indeed that the American Federation of Labor and the British Trade Union Congress work to- gether.

I am profoundly convinced each must find the methods suited to its soil, its temperament and conditions

COLLEGE BOYS HERE WORKING
FOR SCHOLAR SHIPS

Five college students representing
Canisius College of Buffalo, SYRIA
cuse and Princeton Universities, have
arrived in town to canvass in the
Pictorial Review Scholarship Contest.
Any student obtaining 500 subscrip-
tions or 1000 votes in ten weeks time
will have his entire tuition and ex-
penses paid for the coming year at
college. The men have all seen serv-
ice, three of them in officers training
schools, one in the navy and another
in the tank corps. They have the
permission of the municipal author
tiles and letters of reference from
the Pictorial Review Co. and his re-
spective college.
The boys have just finished Cleve-
land, Toledo, Fostoria, Findlay, Della
ware, and from here they will go to
GAINESVILLE and Coshocton, where their
trip will end, and if successful they
will return to college.

LABOR DAY

Labor Day finds the whole world IN
confusion. Great social disturbances
rage in every land. DisOrganization
and the ruin of war threatens to un-
dermine civilization.
Amid all this turmoil, the labor
unions alone of all social organ1za-
tions have a hopeful vision and work
able program.
"Let US organize Industrial Dem
ocracy" say the unions. industrial
Democracy is a state or condition in
industry under which the workers
have an equal voice in the govern
ment of the industry; a full share of
responsibility for adequate produc-
ton or service and an equal share In
all profits above the cost Of produc-
ton"
This means a reorganization of In
dustry and society. Unless such a
reorganization is effected, the world
will steadily drift toward chaos. Join
the unions and help save the world
from anarchy and ruin.

STRIKE VOTE ORDERED
Committee of One Hundred Refuse the
Settlement Offered and Will
Refer Matter to Men

Washington-The committee of 100
representing the railroad shopmen
has informed Director General Hines
that they could not accept as basis
of settlement of their demands the
rates submitted by President Wilson.
Results of the negotiations here
were communicated to the union
locals throughout the country with
instructions that a strike-vote should
be taken Immediately to determine
whether the presidents proposals
should be accepted.
Pending the issuance of an official
strike-vote, it was urgently requested
by the international officers that all
men should remain on the job.
What the next move of he govern
ment will be in the event that the
100000 railroad shopmen of the coun-
try vote to strike for an immediate
increase in wages is a question for
speculation in official circles. There
are indications that for the time being
the attitude of the officials would be
to "cross that bridge when they came
to it."
Ordinarily labor leaders pointed
out, it would require about three
weeks to take a strike vote among
the half million workers involved.
But in this instance orders have been
given that the balloting be expedited
and the returns made by wire, with
the possibility that the result would
be known at the end of two weeks.

SIXTEEN PAGES TODAY

The Leader feels a justifiable pride
in presenting this weeks issue to the
public. 1t is replete with the latest
labor doings throughout the country
and at home, and should be carefully
read and laid away for future ref
erence.
This large size paper is rendered
possible by the brotherly attitude of
commercial, professional and busi3
ness men, who have thus given proof
of their friendship to the cause by d
liberal patronage Of our advertising
columns, thereby signifying that they
welcome the trade of the working
people.
Labor, in its turn, should be equally
loyal and patronize those who so glad
" assist the cause by every means
within their power. Read the hun
dreds of advertisements in tOday's
paper, every business in the city Is
represented, and when needing any
thing go only to those who are as
sisting you.
The Leader desires to extend to its
hosts of friends and patrons its most
sincere thanks for the generous pa
tronage extended and many kind
words of commendation, and trusts
that its future policy will merit their
continuance.

here in Newark This community and this company have
pulled together and both have propeed The company has
proped by being able pay decent wages and salaries by
maintaining its property. by paying its taxes and other
operating expenses and by paying and per cent its
securities which represent less rather than than the in
