 nEySnIrnG+EG

The blanks for persons with in comes of more than $5000 have been received and have been mailed to all persons paying income tax on amounts in excess of $5000 at the local office of the collect9r of internal revenue. Per sons who have not received these blanks may secure them by calling a, the office in the federal building. John D. McNeel, collector of internal reve- nue, has issued the following which will be of interest to income taxpay- . CTS:
 "Fiduciary returns are required ot persons or corporations holding in trust the estate of another person, the net uejncome of which equals or exceeds $100C pr 5000, according to the marital ;tatus of. the beneficiary.
 ''Fiduciaries are subject to all the provisions of the law which apply to Eidividuals who are required to make Feturn of income, and must state under oath that they have sufficient knowl- edge of the affairs of the persons for whom they act to enable them to make such returns. return filed by one of two or more f1duciaries in the office of the collector of internal revenue in which the fiauciary resides, is suffi- cient to meet the requirements of the law.
 "The duly appointed guardian of a minor, or the conservator of the estate of an incomlpetent person, is required to render a personal return in behalf of his ward under the same conditions as would the ward, if competent to act for himself. In doing so the personal exemption to which the ward is entitled may be claimed.
 Trustees having charge of an estate the net income of which is regularly distributed among the beneficiaries, are required to make return if any o1 the beneflciaries is single and his net income from the estate equals or ex- ceeds 5000 or if all of the beneficiaries are married and the net income of any equals or exceeds $2000.
 ''Partnerships as such are not sub- ject to the income tax, each partner being liable to the tax in his individual capacity. A partnership, however, is required to make return for the taxa ble year, stating specifically the items Hpf its gross income and the deductions flowed. Each partner must include En his individual return his distributive share of the partnerships net income whether or not it has been actually paid. Where the result of partnership operation is net loss. such loss is divid- ed between the partners in the same proportion as net income would have been divisible, and may be deducted z by the individual partners in their re- turn of income. A partnership should be computed on the same basis and ir the same manner as an individual re- turn"

Dr, J. F. billiard. pastor of the South side Baptist church, preaching yesterday morning on the subject. "The Call of the World" said in part:
 Many centuries have passed since Paul saw a vision in the night and heard the call, Come over to Macedonia and help us. This call has been increasing with the ages, and is just as urgent now when first uttered Paul answered it, and so should we answer 1t.
 "The war has intensified the call. Many people declared that this war would sound sound the death knell of missions. They said that thoughtful men of the times would say, Your Christianity is a failure, see what 1t has done-we will

STEAMERS MAKING
STEADY PROGRESS

The steamers Yukon and Wash
burn, which were held up by the
ice below Circle for several days,
on their way TO Whitehorse, have
passed Eagle on their upward voy-
age and should be in Dawson to-
morrow. The Yukon reached Eagle
at Sis last night and the Wash
burn reported there at seven this
morning.
A report from Circle states that
the Yukon river is free of ice at
that point, but the jam, previously
reported, is still holding at Fort
Yukon, S5 miles below Circle.
The arrival of the steamers at
Eagle practically insures their ar
rival at Dawson, and it is regarded
as likely that they will be able to
reach Whitehorse, their destination.

ALL BACK TO WORK
FINAL ADJUSTMENT WILL 81
MADE BY GOVERNMENT
ONLY ONE VOTE AGAINST SET
ELEMENT TO BITING END
TO STRIKE.
Newspaper Union New. Service.

Western Newspaper Union New. Service.
indianapolis, Dec. 1.-THE coal
miners strike is ended. With only
one dissenting vote the general com
mittee of the United Mine Workers OF
America voted to accept President
Wilson's proposal for immediate re-
turn to work pending final settlement
Of their wagc controversy with opern-
tors by commission to be appointed
by him. Telegrams were sent to the
1000 locals of the union by lnterna-
tiOnal officials instructing the men to
return to work Immediately.
Operators predicted full resumption
of operations within twenty-four hours
and shipment of coal from the mines
beginning promptly
Miners, operators and government
officials alike were highly gratlfied
over the settlement, and all sides np-
peared confident of a final satisfac-
tory settlement of the fight by the
commission.
The action ends tie-up of the soft
coal industry of more than five weeks
duration and which was more far
reaching in Its effects than any other
in the history of the country. As II
result of the strike the country was
fast approaching a shutdown of indus
try and widespread suffering among
its 1OO,OOO,0O0 inhabitants.
The decision came after many hours
of debate, In which the radical ele-
ment made incendiary speeches
against operators and others inter
ested In settlement Of the strike and
for time threatened to defeat ef-
forts to settle the strike at this time.
The conservative element, led by
Acting President John l.. Lewis and
Secretary-Treasurer William Green,
gained control of the situation and
succeeded in putting down practically
all opposition by the time the question
came to vote.
One concession was made to the rad
icals. The convention agreed to the
calling Of n general convention OF the
miners at future date. ut which time
the action Of and reasons for the gen
eral committee will be fully ex-
planned.
The opponents of acceptance Of the
Presidents plan made their fight prin-
cipally on the theory that only n gen.
eral convention of the mine workers
had power to call off the strike.

Ing. he says:
There are but two ways by which
the general standard Of living Of the

by increased productivity, making
more material available for wages.
The other is by taking the means of
Increased compensation out OF the prof

Increased and profits remain the same
the burden is passed on to the con-
suming public In the form OF an In
creased cost Of living and comes back
to the wnge worker himself No por-
ton OF improved living standards can
come out Of the profits OF the employ
ers unless there is profitcering.
"And what gives the opportunity for
profitcering The very conditions that
we are confronted with todny-thc de-
structlve agencies OF war, the dlsar'

MANY MINERS REPORT FOR
WORK AS CIRCULAR
GOES OUT.

Indianapolis, Ind, Dec. 12.-Mem-
America are urged to return to work
with the least possible delay In order
that the public needs for coal may be
promptly met, In a circular prepared
by the international officials Of the or
ganizatIon, which has been sent to the
1000 local unions throughout the
nation.
Acting on the directions contained
in the messages many miners reported

practically all mines which have been
idle since the strike on Oct. 81 have
resumed operations. Reports from
several mines told Of hoisting Of coal
and operators here stated that coal
would be moving rapidly in q few
days.
1t has been stated that the govern.
ment intended to proceed with the
grand jury investigation Of charges Of
violation Of the Lever act and anti.
trust laws through conspiracy to limit
the production OF coal. These charges
involve both miners md employers.
On the other hand, 1t was Indicated
that charges Of contempt made against
|eighty-four officials Of the mine work
ers for alleged violation Of the federal
court injunction against the strike
probably would be dropped.
In their circular the miners officials
review the Incidents leading up to the
calling OF the general conference here,

and agreed to between them and At
torncy General Palmer us basis for
settlement. The difference between
the plan accepted and that proposed

pointed out. The Garfield plan, 1t is
declared, closed the door for any In
crease In wages beyond II per cent
and eliminated other features consld.
cred Of vital Importance TO the conl
workers.
