CUSTODIAN OF
TABERNACLE is
VERSATILE MAN

BY this time you have all become
acquainted with that tall, lean
young man with symptoms of a
mustache, and you know his name
is Albert Peterson. But perhaps
you don't know that he isn't mar
ried and that he would just as soon
be married. There is a tip.
He is versatile and can do most
anything from acting as custodian
of the tabernacle with its thousand
and one things to attend to. to real
talent in playing the piano; if
you'll remember he did that while
Rodey was away for a few days
and Bob Matthews led the singing
Mr.. Peterson's home is in Ottum-
wa 1t was during a visit of Mr.
Sunday to that town that he was
converted in 1908, and in 1914 he
joined Mr.. Sundays party as as
sistant custodian, and the follow
ing year he was made custodian
while a campaign was being con-
Quoted in Omaha. He has since
been with the party in the capacity
of custodian with the exception Of
the time he spent in the service.
Yes, he was in the service. He
enlisted in July, 1918. and was
made mess sergeant at the officers
training camp at Camp Pike. He
never saw service overseas, much
to his regret, and was discharged
from the army in January, 1919.
He returned at once to his duties
with the Sunday party. and he said
the other eevning that his work
had wonderful fascination for
him. why, l really don't know
what l would do if l couldn't be
with Mr.. Sunday. am sure /
would miss the work, the every
day excitement, the something new
every day. | really don't believe I
could stay away from it," he con
fided.

States saved one person a month,
that is just II a year, in one year
we would have just 400, 600 more
saved souls. If each Baptist preach
er did the same thing. We would
have 100000 more saved souls. If
all the ministers each saved one a
month we would have saved 1,800,-
900. Instead of this nearly eight
thousand churches last year make
the report that there had been no
conversions. Now everybody that
has accepted Jesus as a Savior
has a duty. 1t is a privilege as
well as a duty. It does not belong
to the minister only. II nature
went on strike, where would we
wind up? Still we are all the time
when there is no time like the
present for working.

DRASTIC STEP rs
TAKEN BY HINES
TO GET ICED CARS

Washington, Sept. 2C.-Drastic
action was taken today by Direc-
tor General Hines to compel the
prompt release of refrigerator
cars. After receiving numerous
complaints OF delay in the unload
ing OF such cars. presumably by
jobbers who preferred paying de-
to losing a possible ad-
vance in the market price of the
goods. Mr.. Hines ordered regional
directors to place embargoes
against all consignees who fail to
release promptly such equipment.
The situation in the west and the
of the Florida crop
was said 10 render all
reasonable measures imperative to
obtain the full use Of refrigerator
cars.

INCOME TAX INFORMATION

The big income tax drive of 1919
Is now under way, and every pre-
paration is being made to handle the
largest collection in the history of in
come tax. Il am not waiting for the
final passage OF the revenue bill by
congress" said Collector David J.
Williams today, nor for the new
regulations and blank forms to be is
sued. To get this big tax in and get
1t accurate and complete, | urge that
We all begin now"
THE income tax obligations i'm
posed by the old laws, as well as the
measure now in congress, consist of
TWO distinct operations. One is, to
lie return or statement of all items
OF income and items of deductions al
loWable by law, and to do this within
the period named in the law. The
olher Is to pay the tax, if any is due
Neither of these obligations can
be met without a careful review of
income and expenditure for the tax
year. That is the big job right now,
and that is why l say the income tax
drive is already under way Every
where the pencil is busy. The old
year is done; all it's fruits are CLEAN
ed; and every person who Jared well,
or earned a good competence, must
analyze his own case in cold figures.
When the new bill is enacted into
law, | will have the proper return
forms distributed throughout the dis
trict, and everybody will be informed
of the date when the sworn return
must be filed. 1t is my plan to send
my men out to central locations, and
to have them travel through the dis
trict, aiding taxpayers in the prepare
ton of the returns and in deciding
doubtful points. We will go right to
the people with the income tax, and
with the cooperation which the pub
lie can give the goyernment~men, the
returns will be filed by everybody
who comes under the laws provisions,
the right taxes will be paid, and the
district will have done its full patri-
otto duty toward the governments
support.
Meanwhile, let me say again,
there is no need of delaying the pre-
paration of figures. Anything that
congress does now will not affect the
amount of a persons earnings for
1918. Let us avoid the belated
throwing together of figures that may
hit or miss. Guesses can not be ac-
cepted as the basis of taxation 1t is
clearly the duty of every person to
compile correct figures and ascertain
whether his income for 1918 was suf-
ficient to make necessary a sworn re-
turn.
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1919-02-07

The year 1918 was a banner year
for salaries and wages, and the high
war prices brought unusual profits
to the average small tradesman and
to the farmer. The opinion in
Washington is that million citizens
and residents will make this year
their first income tax returns.
An signs indicate that the income
tax this year will reach nearly every
working man and woman, and nearly
every merchant, shop keeper and
farmer, Not all will have to pay the
tax, but nearly all will be OBJ
liged to make a sworn statement of
the years income.
Il am therefore advising every
unmarried person who earned $1,000
or over during the year 1918, and
every married person, who together
with wife or husband, earned $4,000,
to sharpen his pencil and figure out
how he stands.
He must ascertain accurately his
gross income from all sources.
There's his salary or wages, includ-
ing overtime pay and any bonus re-
ceived as additional compensation.
a married person having children
under Is who are working should in
clude the earnings of such children
IF he sold any property at a
profit, the gain must be computed
and included in gross income. If he
rented any property to other per-
sons, the total rents received in the
year must be ascertained, and from
that figure a deduction may be
taken for taxes paid on rented prop
erty, the necessary minor repairs,
fire insurance, any interest he may
have paid on mortgage, and a rea-
sonable allowance for annual wear
and tear of the rented property. The
balance is included in gross income
for the year.
Interest on bank deposits, wheth-
er withdrawn or added to his bank
balances, must be included in all cal
culations of income. Bond interest
received during the year must also
be included except interest on mu-
nicipal, county or state bonds. In
terest on United States bonds need
not be included by the ordinary bond
holder who purchased small amounts.
Holders of large amounts of Liberty
bonds, however, should ask their
bankers to write to my office for
the rule applying to tax on such in
terest.
Dividends on stock shares are in
come, and must be included in the
gross figures, although the law does
not impose the normal tax on dis
tributiOns made by domestic corpora
tions.
