MERCHANTS EVADE LUXURY
TAX; FAIL TO MAKE RETURNS

Charging that failure to turn in lux
ury taxes in the State of Delaware is
costing the national government
thousands of dollars a year, the In
ternal Revenue Office, working on in
formation supplied by Department of
Justice agents, will open an extensive
drive for the collection of the taxes
and for the apprehension and probable
arrest of those responsible.
In this one State alone, it is al
legged, the mechants are Withholding
many hundreds of dollars of taxes,
collected from the public for soda, ice
cream, theatre tickets, clothing and
other luxuries. This condition, it is
said, is the same throughout the coun-
try.
So bad is the situation here that a
squad of agents from the various rev.
enue offices in this districts, assisted
by a special squad from Washington
headquarters, will conduct cleanup
drive here within a short time. The
agents, under the charge of DR.. J. G.
Sharp, are now engaged in similar
cleanup in Baltimore.
The revenue agents, in their orders
for the cleanup drive, were told 'to
go out and get the rascals with two
purposes in view, one to get the mon
ey belonging to the government, and
the other to land some of the worst
offenders"
The figures obtained by department
of justice agents indicate, it is charg-
ed, that less than two-thirds of the
luxury taxes collected are being turn
ed over to the government. eve are
now preparing to go after some of the
big malefactors and will land them in
Jail before we are through" it was
stated at the Internal Revenue office.
The soda water tax, it is declared,
is a joke so far as the government re-
turns are concerned. In only a small
percentage of places are books kept,
they assert, and there is no checking
possible, the proprietor collects the
tax and then gives the government
what he pleases. Some of the larger
places which sell checks and stubs
may be turning in the proper tax, it
is said, but such places are few and
far between. The same applies to large
clothing and luxury manufacturers, it
is said.
There are ways of checking up on
the soda water man." it is declared,
"and this is now being DONE" The gov
ernment is ascertaining exactly the
amount of soda water sold by the
wholesaler and to whom it is sold. In
that way it can easily be estimated
how many sodas are being sold by
each merchant. In the moving picture
theatres, the same Withholding Of
taxes has been suspected, it is said,
but until the present time no effort
had been made to get after the per-
petratOrs.
The squal of cleanup agents is now
working in Baltimore. AS soon as the
matter is finished there they will be
transferred to Wilmington, going
from there to Norfolk.

that the house will always be dry
Green feed is very essential for the
growing chickens, the ideal condition
being to allow them free range on
good grass. land. Alfalfa makes an
ideal range. Where the chickens have
to be confined to small yards it is
very essential to supply green feed
daily. Freshly cut lawn clippings and
short pieces of any growing grain
crop, such as oats, wheat or any quick
growing crop, such as rape, make
splendid green feed. Where these
growing feeds are not available,
sprOuted oats may be used and will
help materially. Where a hen is kept
with a brood Of chickens and the
chickens confined to a small covered
pen, move this coop and pen every two
or three days to fresh grass and never
let the grass be killed or eaten down
where the run is placed. Provide fresh,
clean water daily and see that the re-
ceptacles are thoroughly cleaned and
the chickens never without water. The
water should be kept in the shade in
as cool a place as possible. Using a
stone crock for watering fountains
will help to keep the water cool.
Where the chickens are confined to
yards or have free range, shade
should be provided. Trees and low
shrubs make ideal shade, but if not
available a corn patch or rows of sun
flowers will help materially. Where
no growing crop or trees of any kind
are available it will pay to put up an
artificial shade, making a framework
two or three feet high and covering
this with the branches Of trees, weeds,
straw or any waste material that will
furnish shade.
