INCOME TAX
FORMS NOW BEING
DISTRIBUTED
From Now Until March IS,
Returns May Be Made
to Collector

Inc L euSTdl lNCOIlS DIX SedSOH
opens today, with the distribution
of the forms for personal returns
from the offices of Collector of In
ternal Revenue H. T. Graham.
From now until the bell rings on
the night of March 18th, the an
nual returns covering income for
1919 will be figured out and filed
by citizens and residents, together
with payment of tax due.
The burden of fulfilling this OBJ
legation is laid by law squarely on
the shoulders of those who are
American citizens or residents.
Every person must determine for
himself whether his net income for
1919, figured according to the Rev
enue Law, was sufficient in amount
to require a return.
If he is single, a return is
required if net income for 1919 was
$1,000 or over. A widow or widower
is classed as a single person. A
man or woman living apart from
his wife or husband is also classed
as a single person.
If he was married and living
with his wife on Dec. 81, a return
is required if his net income for
1919 was $4,000 or over. In his net
income he must include that of his
wife and miner children, if any.
If a tax is due on his income,
he must make payment with his
return. This payment may be
made in whole or in part of the
tax due. At least one quarter of
the tax must accompany the re-
turn.
The filing and paying must be
done before midnight of March
18th. or he is classed as a delin-
quent and is subject to severe pen
alties.
The forms are being distributed
for personal returns. From 1O40A
is intended for use by a person
whose net income does not exceed
$4,000. A larger form 1040, is
intended for each person having
a net income in excess of $4,000
Both of these forms are now OBJ
tainable at Internal Revenue offic
es and at some banks and Pos
Offices.
1t is urged by the Internal Rev
enue Bureau that taxpayers obtai1
their blanks at once. Failure t
have a blank form at hand for a
eleventh-hour return will not re
lieve a person of penalty for fai
ure to comply with the law.
Each form contains instruction
for preparing and filing the re
turn, and these should be CAREFUL
read and strictly observed.
There is also provided a "wor
sheet which should be used fC
max ing the original computation
and which should be retained an
preserved by the taxpayer.
Any person who is in doubt o
points affecting his particular cas-
should bring such matters to til
attention of the nearest Deput
Collector or Revenue Agent, VIII
will render every necessary al
without charge.
When the return is completed
it should be properly executed an
Immediately filed. Any Intern;
Revenue Officer will administer tn
necessary oath without charge.
1t is pointed out that accurac
in compiling the return is abs,
lutely necessary. Mere guesse
and estimates as to income an
deductions should be avoided, an
actual facts and amounts shoul
be set forth. And this is equal,
important in considering the que
tion of whether a return is r
quired.

family, as defined in the Income
Tax regulations, she may claim
$1,000 additional exemption. Also,
she may claim further exemption
of 5000 for each person for whom
she is the chief support, if the
dependent is under IS or is men,
tally or physically defective.
A married woman who has an
income from separate source
than her husband is entitled to
file separate return with respect
to that income. Ordinarily a hus-
band and wife file one joint return,
including the income of both. But
if the husband does not include
his Wife's income, the wife is re-
quired to file her own return. Sep
arate returns of husband and wife
are required if either had a net
income exceeding $4,000.
A married woman who lives with
her husband is not allowed a pre-
scribed exemption. She and her
husband have $4,000 plus 5000, ad-
ditiOn for each dependent; and
this exemption may be taken by
either or divided in any manner
between them.
A woman who was widowed dur
ing 1919 may claim exemption for
the full year, on the basis of her
status Of December 81.
A wife whose husband is in a
santitarium or temporarily work
ing in another city, and is separat-
ed from him only through neces-
sity, should not consider her status
as "living apart" from her hus-
band. But if there is voluntary
continuous separation, whether OF
not granted by court decree, each
must take the status of a single
person with respect to income tax
A portly Dutch woman applied
to the post office for a money order
to send to her son in the far East
She told the clerk she had left hel
sons letter at home, but said hi

So the clerk made the order pay
