FEDERAL INCOME
BLANKS GOING OUT
Mechanical Device IN the Office
Here Which Enables Mailing
Them by the Wholesale.

Between $4,000 and 10000 persons
in the State have in the past paid Fcderat
income taxes. Their names and addresses
are recorded on stencil cards in the ohce
of the collector, on the third floor OF the
Federal Building, and are used for trans
fcrring tire addresses on cards, to the IN
come tax return blanks and to the en-
vclopcs in which these are sent out.
The printing from these cards is done
in an electrically motored machine,
which works at the rate of 5000 per hour.
1t is being used in preparing and mailing
the blanks as fast as these are supplied
from Washington. A large proportion OF
those who have heretofore paid on m
comes in excess of 5000 have already
received tho blanks for 1919 returns, or
if not, will shortly have them
The other blanks, for amounts less
than 5000, arc not yet available, but
viii be similarly sent out as soon as
received from the Department 1T Wash
ington.
1t is noted by those having to do with
the tax returns that the requirement OF
reckoning gains and losses has worked
for s. great Improvement IN the book
keeping systems of those doing business
in a small and even considerable wsy.
The case is cited of concern dong An
over the counter retail trade which kept
no books and was unable to figure income
except with the sid Of an accountant
going over his bank deposits. An exam
nation and analysis based on these showed
that the business was losing money, and
it was promptly disposed Of at ad-
vantaceous terms. Even farmers are
getting into the way of keeping accounts
with their products, and find satisfaction
in dong So
