it up. have you experienced trou-
BILE of any kind in filing your income
tax return for 1918 ?
If so, this is written for your bene-
fit and for the benefit of more than
100000 tax payers who, on or before
March Is, will file income tax returns
for the year of 1919. It is certain a
percentage of these returns will be
incorrect. 1t is equally certain that
the percentage of errors may be large

themselves with the income tax pro-
visions Of the act OF February "a,
1918. which provides for the collec-
tion Of taxes for the year 1919 and

A per cent on the first $4,000 of net
income above the exemptions and 8
per cent on the remaining net in
come. The normal rate for 1918 was
s and ~ per cent. respectively. This
applies to every citizen and resident
of the United States. Allen non
residents receiving income fro m
sources within the United States are
taxed to the full 8 per cent on the in
come from such sources.
The surtax rates, which range from
per cent on the amount of net in
come between $4,000 and $4,000 to So
per cent on the amount of income in
excess Of 81 600, 900, remain unchang
