File Income Tax
Reports March IS

That there will be no general ex-
tension of time beyond March 18th
for the filing Of returns and for the
payment of income and excess prof
its taxes due on that date, is the de-
cision of Daniel C. Roper, commits
! sioner of internal revenue. The an
nouncement was made today by Col
lector j. Y. Fauntleroy Immediately
following the approval by the Senate
and House of the report of the con-
ferees on the new revenue bill.
ut 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 approx
mating s8O0,0O0,OOO, maturing on
March Is. 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 prov
EN- that there is no emergency too
great to be met and solved by CO.
operation. This present situation is
another emergency which can be
overcome by cooperative effort. The
bureau extends its every force to-
ward this end, and am relying upon
the people to meet the situation
intellectually.
"The Internal Revenue Bureau
must carry out the programe pre-
scribed in the new law, which re-
quires all returns for 1918 to be filed
on or before March Is, 1919, and re-
quires quarterly payment or the en-
time payment to be made on or be-
fore that date.
Every taxpayer who can possibly
do so is urged to make full payment
Of his income tax before March 10.
The quarterly payment method is in
tended for taxpayers whose financ-
ing of the tax at one time would tend
to upset local financial conditions.
"The approval of the report of the
conferees by the Senate and House
Of representatives brings the new
revenue bill to the point where it
may be assumed to be law. The In
ternal Revenue Bureau has been
making preparations to collect the
taxes which it provides, and is now
putting all of its efforts into aiding
the taxpayers to fulfill the obliga-
tions imposed.
"The bureau has arranged to send
an advisory force of several thousand
deputies and agents to assist taxpay-
ers. These officers will be stationed
at convenient points where they may
be consulted without charge. Tax
payers should take the initiative and
get in touch with those revenue men
for any needed advice and assistance
in preparing returns.
"The forms for thu tax returns are
being printed and FL forms will be
in the hands of collectors between
February Is and March L."

Do Not Neglect It.

When you use medicated sprays,
atomizers and douches for your Ca
tarrh, you may succeed in unstopping
the ehoked-up air passages for the
time being, but this annoying condi-

Logan was brought TO Bethlehem

car owned by Charles L. Goodenougi,
Bethlehem piano dealer, at Hellertown

Bethlehem city Jail and late yesterday

Logan was missing. lie mad filed

PASSING OF OLD ELM
STIRS WIDE INTEREST
Photographs of Fallen Inde.
pendence Square Tree
Sought by Magazine

The fall of the mighty elm that stood
in independence Square for more than
a century has attracted widespread at
tention throughout the country. The
EVENING PUBLIC LEDGER today received
from the American Forestry Magazine
a request for a photograph OF the an
cient tree. The communication reads:
will you be kind enough TO let us
have the picture of the cut enclosed
herewith? We would like to run 1t in
our magazine. We will appreciate this
very much, for the tree is very worthy
of further record
The old elm crashed to earth in the
morning of March 90 after a forty
eight-hour battle with a terrific wind
that did widespread damage through
out the city. What gallant fight II
had made for life was shown by its
twisted trunk and branches.
None appears to be informed as to the
age of the tree. Il was one Of the ia
vorites of Jesse T. Vogdes. for many
years chief engineer and superintendent
of Fairmount Park, who died recently
Mr. Vogdes made unsuccessful efforts
to ascertain its exact age.
The oldest men in Philadelphia can
not recall time when the great tree
was not standing in the square, nor can
they remember any man who recalled
the time when the elm was young. The
tree was thought by many experts tc
have antedated the signing of the Dec
laration of Independence, almost a cen.
tury and a half ago.

Bad as is the gambling in the open
streets. that in the clubs Is declared
to be far worse. Membership is n mere
formality The clubs are springing up
like mushrooms even in the formerly
aristocratic sections of Berlin.
The fashionable West End is full OF
clubs while gambling places have been
opened on the Inter den Linden. The
clubs are patronized by a strange mix
ture of wealthy and poor and the
strata between, including many we'll
known persons who made large
amounts of money on war contracts.
Bets on roulette run as high as 5000
marks
The clubs, both old and new, are
striving to outdo each other in schemes
to attract a constantly new clientele.
One means is to serve better meals than
can be obtained in the restaurants with
out cards. Many beautiful homes have
been hired for club purposes, and the
gaming rooms are surrounded with
every luxury, similar TO the gambling
houses of New York some years ago.
For those who cannot patronize the
expensive clubs there is always gam
bling in certain cafes, particularly in
the West End. where the dice rattle
steadily until late at night, and where
even roulette and baCCarat are preva-
| lent. Street gambling is not always
with cash, stolen raluables Of various
! kinds being put up as stakes

ealthy Minge Before Roulette WheeDice Rattle in
Clubs and Cafes-Stoen Taluabes
Used as Stakes

Berlin. April 2.--Gambling has SO in
creased here since the armstice that
the widest opportunity and license are
not sufficient to satisfy the passion of
the residents of Berlin. who have taken
to playing games of chance, even
roulette in the open streets in certain
sections of the city The police claim
they areunable legally to prevent gam
ing clubs from operating as long as the
weak membership regulations are OBJ
served. 1t is a fact, however. that the
police cannot stop games in the public
streets.
A few weeks ago It was common for
the police to make eight or ten arrests
daily, but this form of gambling has in
creased by leaps and bounds until GER
tain streets are lined with tables edge
to edge. The bets have been increasing
gradually in size until men and women,
apparently of the poorer classes and
often worthless" and drawing govern
ment support. wage twenty-five marks at
a time.
The police occasionally appear on the
scene, whereupon the gamblers dlsap-
pear. only to reappear quickly after the
officers have gone. The scene is eniv-
ened frequently by bettors, who. after
losing. snatch money from the table and
dash through the crowd to the walls OF
the cheated gamester.

Allied Artillery Fire InHicts
Heavy Losses on Bolsheviki

Archanse1, April 1, delayed.-(By A.
P.-Bolshevik forces again attacked the
Allied positions along the railway near
odozerskaia and also made an assault
against the lines east Of Bolshoia ozera
yesterday but at both places were re-
pulsed. Along the railway the enemy
struck from the right flank, but was met
by such severe fire from machine guns
and artillery that he speedily retired
with heavy losses through the snow.
In the attack near Bolshoia Ozera
the Bolsheviki succeeded for a short
time in cutting telephonic communica-
ton to the Allied outposts along the
front at a point about two miles east
of that village and twelve miles west
of odozerskaia, but later were driven
off.
The enemy apparently is striving to
take Odozerskaia before the thaw, which
is rapidly approaching makes the roads
impossible.
