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 $2,O00 or more is required to file return under oath with the collector of internal revenue for the district-in which he lives on or before March 15, 1921.
 The penalty for failure is fine of not more than $1,000 and an addition al assessment of 25 per cent of the amount of tax due. For willful re- fusal to make return the penalty is a fine of not more than $10,00O or not exceeding one years imprison- ment, or both together with the costs of prosecution. A similar penalty is provided for making false or fraud ulent return, together with an addi- tional assessment of 50 per cent of the amount of tax evaded.
 WOMEN MUST 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 or exceeds $2,OOO a return must be made. A minor who has net income in his own right of $1,00O or more must file a separate return. To be allowed the $2,00O ex-

State legislation which will offer the alternative of a $2,000 farm or home loan or cash compensation at the rate of $15 a month of service for veterans of hte World War, will be pressed by the Oregon Department of the American Legion. It was so decided at recent meeting of the state executive committee of the Le- zion. The Legionnaires also voted to sponsor in the legislature a bill sim liar to the Japanese law of Califor- mia, aimed to prevent land holdings by orientals in the state, when it was pointed out that the adoption of the California law caused an influx of Japanese into Oregon.
 A national poll of the members of the American Legion may be ordered by National Headquarters in the near future to determine which plan mem- bers will choose in the event that the Legion four-fold bonus bill is passed by the Senate. The Senate Finance committee reported to the National legislative committee in Washington that this step might be necessary to ascertain an estimate of the immed- fate expenditure which the bills pas sage would call for.
