DID YOU MAKE IN 192O7

Work has begun on the collection
of the income tax for the year 1920.
Uncle Sam, through the Bureau Of
Internal Revenue, is addressing to
every person in the United States the
question, "What was your net income
for 1920" The answer permits Of no
guesswork Every single person whose
net income for 1920 was $1,000 or
more and every married person whose
net income was $4,000 or more is re-
quired to file a return under oath
with the collector Of internal revenue
for the district in which he lives on
or before March Is, 1921.
The penalty for failure is a fine of
not more than $1,000 and an addition
al assessment of g. per cent of the
amount Of tax due. For willful refus-
al to make a return the penalty is a
fine of not more than $4,000 or not
exceeding one years Imprisonment, Of
both together with the costs Of prose-
cution. A similar penalty is provided
for making a false or fraudulent re-
turn, together with an additional as
sessment of so per cent of the amount
of tax evaded.
Women Pay Tax
The income tax applies to women
as we'll -as men. Husband and wife
must consider the income of both plus
that Of minor dependent children, and
if the total equals OF exceeds $4,000 a
return must be filed. A minor who
has a net income in his own right Of
$1,000 or more must file a separate
return. To be allowed the $4,000 <ex-
emption a married person must be liv-
ing with husband or wife on the last
day Of the taxable year, December 81,
1920. Divorces, persons separated by
mutual agreement, widows and wild
overs, unless they are the sole support
of others living in the same house
sold, in which case they r allowed
the $1,000 exemption granted the head
of a family, are entitled only to $1,000
exemption.
80 Tax Rates For 1920
The normal tax rate for 1920 is the
same as for 1914 per cent-on the
first $4,000 of net income above the
exemption and 8 per cent ON the re-
naming net income. This applies to
every citizen and resident Of the
United States. In addition to the
normal tax a surtax is imposed upon
net income in excess Of $1,000.
Instructions on Form
Full instructions for making our re-
turns are contained on the forms, cop
les of which may be obtained from
collectors of internal revenue. Per-
0 n whose net income for 1920 was
5 5 5000 or less should use Form 1O40A.
Those with incomes in excess of $1,000
should use Form 1O4O. ~,
Revenue officers will visit every
county in the United States to assist
taxpayers in making out their returns.
The date of their arrival and the To-
cation of their offices will be an
nounced by the press or may be ascer-
tanned upon inquiry at the offices of
collectors. This. advisory service is
without cost to taxpayers.
