QUESTION OF LICENSE REFUND
 Is DISCUSSED
County Commissioners of State Have Meeting
 Today.

Hartford, Conn, Jan. 15-County Commissioners of the state met here this afternoon to discuss the ques- ton of refunding license money to liquor dealers who have been unable to use their licenses because of war time prohibition and because of the national prohibition amendment. Ja- cob D. Walter of Cheshire, chairman of the New Haven County Commis- sioners, is chairman of the state or. ganization and presided at the session today.
 Advice from a trio of lawyers re- tained some weeks ago by a commit tee from the state organization was tG the effect that refunds could be made to dealers who surrendered their H- cenSeS before they expired. The County Commissioners as whole did not accept this view as a fair one and 1t is known that 1t would be decided ly unfair to dealers outside of Hart. ford and New Britain to act on these advices literally. Licenses in the towns outside of Hartford and New Britain expired November l and while applications were received and were advertised no new licenses were granted pending the settlement of questions linked up with war time prohibition.

INCOME TAX FACTS
 YOTT SR0TTTn KN


 The man or woman whose income is from salary or wages has several things to consider in making out his or her income tax return. The full amount received for personal services must be returned as gross income Direct expenses incurred in earning his compensattons, however, are a1- loWab1e deductions For example, a travelling man selling on commission may deduct his railroad fare and amounts paid for hire of vehicles in calling on his customers as a "busi- ness expense" but not his hotel board, which is a personal or living expense.
 Salaries must be reported as in- come for the year in which they are received, regardless of when they are earned. Thus, man who is paid on the 5th of the month and received his salary for the month of Decem- Der, 1918, on January 5, 1919, will include the amount in his return for 1919. His salary for December, 1919, which is not received until January 5, 1920, need not be included in his 1919 income, although it was entirely earned during that year.
 Bonuses Must Be Reported.
 A salary or commission credited to an account and subject to withdrawal must be included as income. Bonuses or any form of profit sharing must be included, since they are additional compensation for services. A Christ mas gift, or other present from an employer is not taxable.
 Compensation for personal services may be paid for partly in cash and partly in board and lodging. In this event, a fair value must be placed upon the room and meals, and the amount reported as income by the employee.
 Salaries of officers and employees of state, county, or municipal gov ernment are exempt from taxation. The exemption does not extend to federal employees and employees of the government of the District of Co., lumbia.
 Compensation for personal services paid to directors and trustees of a corporation or society which itself is exempt from taxation is taxable in- come to the recipients. Witnesses in law suits are not employees of a state, and the fees received by such wit- nesses are subject to taxation. Tips Are Taxable. Tips to porters, walters, etc, are not regarded as a gift but as com pensation for services rendered, and must be included in the returns o1 persons by whom received. Money paid under marriage set. clement is a gift, and not taxable Neither alimony nor allowance based on a separation is taxable income though if such funds are invested the income derived from such sources must be reported for taxation.

 Colonel R. G. Cho1meley- Jones. director of the War Risk Insurance Bureau, upon a recent visit to wounded Tanks reeuperating in the Walter Reed Hospital, at Washing ton, poked fun at himself and his de. partment in a way that elicited a good laugh from the Bureaus clients pres ent.
