INCOME TAX TOTAL
NOT EVEN ESTIMATED
Officials NOncommitteI on Theories That
Receipts Have Fallen n Bill
lion or More,

WASHINGTON, March, 1S.--In spite
of theories that the receipts from the in
come and profits taxes had dropped ST.,
0OOOOO.O 900 to 81, 800. 00O, 900 below the
receipts of last year, officials of the bu-
reau of internal revenue refuse to COM
init themselves.
The fear that business would be affect
ed by reports, which are necessarily yet
entirely speculative, actuated the Off
Gals. They said that if they should an
nounce a theory that the taxes would
be adequate to meet the needs of the gov
eminent, that business might then imme-
diateIy conclude that congress proposed
to reduce taxation, and this would prove
disastrous if business should arrange its
finances on this theory. only to find that
the situation was reversed. On the
other hand it would depreSs business and
industry exceedingly if it should be
stated that the returns were far below
expectations. because this might fore
shadow new and even higher taxation.
1t is practically impossible yet, Off
Gals said, to ascertain the amount taken
in Tuesday in the first tax day of the
calendar year. The thousands of returns
made have not even been counted, nor
has the amount of money collected been
estimated, 1t is said that it will take
two or three months to make the compu-
tations so eagerly sought on all sides.
| The bureau of internal revenue Will
bend its best efforts to this great task,
for the finance committees of congress
and the house and senate themselves are
very anxious to have these bases to pro-
coed upon in revising the revenue tax
laws.
Officials generally believe that what
ever drop in receipts may be shown will
come largely through the higher brack-
cts. These brackets have yielded moth
ing like the revenue expected from them,
due to the fact that the wealthy have.
to a great extent, invested their capital
in nOn-taxable securities. Predictions
were made last winter that these classi-
fcatiOns would show an even greater de-
crease than they did in the tax returns
made in 1920 for the income of 1919.

100000 World Wan" Vets
Were Ont of Work March 1St

Reopening of factories and mills in the
textile regions of New England and in the
mining and industrial centers of Penn
sylvania leads observers in those parts TO
believe the worst is past, according to the
Legion's survey. The automobile centers
of Detroit, Cleveland and indianapolis
report a slight improvement of conditions
In Chicago conditions are stationary 1t Is
said.
Throughout the agricultural middle west
general movement from the cities and
towns to the farms is reported. The
average ex-soldier had little taste for
agriculture when he came back from the
war. 1t was hard to keep them down on
the farm after they had "seen Paree.
They chose to work in the small factories
or stores in the neighbOring county seat,
where, during 1919, jobs were plenty and
wages high. When those jobs began to go
there was at first an exodus toward the
larger cities. The Legion Strove to dis
courage this. That movement has about
spent itself and farmers throughout the
west now report little difficulty in getting
help, and except in the larger cities there
are few able bodied ex-service men re-
ported out of work in the middle west.
The south reports improvement. Dixie
has been burdened with a larger quota of
winter fioaterS than usual this year, &C.
cording to reports. Some are now finding
farm work in the south, others are drift
ing north, largely to settle on farms.
The Pacific coast, a land where there
are the three great SeaSonable occupations
of fishing, numbering and fruit raising, has
been able to decrease the number of Job
less veterans by half in two months, ac-
cording to advices from there. In Wash

NEW YORK, March 1S.-There We're
100000 veterans of the World war out OF
work in the United States on March /
last, according to an estimate received by
the American Legion. This is a reduc-
ton of about 100000 from the peak" of
more than 100000 jobless ex-service men
in the country shortly after January last
and the Legion reports state there IS
promise of further improvement.
The survey of the national situation on
which these figures are based was made
by the American Legion Weekly, Official
publication of the Legion which states
that the unemployment situation as affect
ing the veterans appears to have taken a
turn for the better"
\ chain of employment agencies Oper-
ated by the Legion in every state has
done much to relieve the situation, say
instrumental in obtaining work for vet
Grams, in discouraging the migration of
unemployed men toward the great indus
trial centerS and has encouraged move
ment from cities to the farms. 1t has de-
manded that workers who left their posi-
tionS to go to war should enjoy seniority
rights on a par with those of military
age who stayed at home.
Ex-service men have suffered more IN
proportion to their numbers than other
workers, according to the Legion's survey,
because of the operation of seniority rules
and efficiency standards. Nearly a year
is required for the returned veteran to get
back to his old stride in industry, accord
ing to the testimony of large employers of
labor. Another thing that has handi-
capped the ex-soldier is his reStlessness
