British Veterans Still Critics

Legionnaires who feared the renewal
of an old controversy over what flags
should be carried in the parade
Memorial Day were relieved by the ac-
tion taken recently by the British
Great War Veterans Association in
this city.
When the British veterans an
nounced that they would carry the
British colors there was a protest from
several organizations, and the ques-
tion was taken up with the association
by Colonel Watkins, marshal of the
parade in New York County. The re-
ply OF the British was to the point.
"We will march on Memorial Day."
they announced, 'to honor our dead
No controversy shall be permitted to
mar such demonstration. This or
ganization's representatives in the
parade will carry the American flag"

HARPER DISCUSSES
INCOME TAI BEFORE
COMMERCIAL CLUB

, Harry D.. Harper of Minneapolis,
tax consultant for the Grand Forks
Commercial club, discussed the sub
ject of income tax problems at a din
ner in the Commercial club Wednes-
day night. A large number Of club
members heard Mr.. Harper, who
gave them valuable information con-
corning tax problems.
Among the several phases of the
question. dealt with was that OF What
Constitutes Invested Capital" In this
connection it was pointed out that if
invested capital has been understated
the taxpayer is paying a heavier tax
than he should. and il it is overstated
he must now, according to a recent
treasury decision, make amended re-
turns voluntarily and pay the addi-
tlona tax that is due, OF be subject
to a penalty and interest charge.
Referring to the importance Of as
certaining the correctness Of invested
capital figures, Mr.. Harper said it was
necessary to. give the matter prompt
attention.. The reasontfo for this is that
one has underpaid his tax during any
one of the last several years and he
does sI1otimake amends before 190tdays
following last August 26 he must pay
a penalty of at least five per cent and
an interest charge of twelve per cent
per year. II back payments are made
before the ninety days have expired,
or by November "a, the penalty and
interest need not be paid, he said.
In speaking of cases where earn
ings have been left in a corporation
and therefore added to the invested
capital. and the earnings have been
understated for the high tax years
the TAI will then as a result. have
been greater than should have been
paid,.tmaking it exceedingly necessary.

Of Interest to Women

A prominent physician says
that by far the largest number OF
women's ailments are not surgi-

caused by serious displacements,
or growths. Symptoms similar in

by much simpler conditions. We
therefore urge every woman who
suffers from backache, headaches,

SAYS AMERICANS
DON'T COUNT COST
(By Associated Press)

New York, April despite the
fact that 28.9 per cent of the
worlds savings are iii this coun-
try and that the average despoSi-
tor in the United States has d
greater sum to his credit than his
European neighbor, only 8 per
cent of the total number of the
worlds savers are Americans.
Authority for this statement is
the Savings Banks Association of
the State Of New York, which has
made an extensive investigation
of savings banks throughout the
world. In proportion to popu-
lation, said a statement issued to-
day, a number of foreign coun-
tries exceed the United States in
numbers of depositors.
European people, through cen
turtles of struggle for mere exist
ence," said DR.. H. H. Wheaton,
executive manager OF the aSSOC1a-
ton, "have been trained to the
most rigid economy, while Amer
leans have found life compare
lively easy matter. The average
American family, until quite re-
Gently, made its expenditures on
the plan: Pay expenses first ant
save what's left-if there is any
thing"
DR.. Wheaton said that in France
one out of every five inhabitants
has a savings account. In his
opinion, the economy of French
people has been their protection
against the death thrusts of CEN
turtles"
