Depreciation.
Depreciation sustained on busl-
ness property in years prior to the
sale must beconsidered in the COM
putation of profit. For example, a
taxpayer acquired building in
1915 at cost of $4,000 and sold
it on January /, 1920, for $4,000.
Assuming that per cent is a
reasonable reasonable annual al
lowance for depreciation, the total
allowance since date Of acquisition
to date of sale would be $4,000.
The profit to returned in 1920
would be the difference between
the cost. $4,000. less depreciation
sustained, $500 or $500. and the
sales price of $4,000. Fhe profit
of $500, so determined, is subject
to tax in 1920, and if the taxpayer
has not claimed deduction for de-
probation in prior years, amended
returns may be filed including
therein a deduction for deprecia-
ton of per cent on the cost

MICHIGAN CURTAILS
LOGGING OPERATIONS
(By The Associated Press.)

Houghton, Mich, Jan. 10
There has been a drastic curtail-
ment of logging operations in the
upper peninsula. according to lum-
Der company officials in this part
of the state. due to the slump in
the market for lumber.
Although lumbermen through
out the northern peninsula look for
a good. steady market for the
product later in the year, there is
said to be little or no demand for
lumber at this time. despite re-
duction of from 35 to 40 per cent
in prices.
A smaller number Of camps are
or Grating than for several years,
although the amount of lumber on
hand Is said by operators to be be-
low normal.
The wages of men employed in
the woods have been reduced from
$40 and 500 a month to $40 and
$50 and the supply of labor is said
to be ample.

northern states to escape the cold
weather. Hotels. boarding houses
and cottages are taxed to their ut
most capacity by regular tourists
and the automobiles. Thousands
Of tents have been put UP in prac-
tically every county Of the state
and some places have established
tent cities with every convenience
for automobile tourists. 1t has
been estimated that more than
zoe, 900 people will occupy tents in
Florida this winter.
So enthusiastic over the automO-
bile method Of touring about Flor
ida are some of the northern visit
ors that they have organized an
association known as the Loyal
Order of Tin Can Tourists of the
World. Their annual convention
recently held here was attended by
about 1000 people from all over

IDLENEss AMONG
BRITISH LABOR
BECOMING ACUTE
Leaders Are Demanding
Legislation to Solve in
Some Manner the Problem
of Unemployment.
tBy The Associated Press,

London, Jan. 6.-Labor leaders
are demanding urgent legislation to
solve, In some way the problem of
unemployment in Great Britain.
Warnings have been given of a Sc
fious social or Industrial upheavaI,
of some kind of starting direct
action" unless the British govern
ment acts promptly.
IF nothing is done within the
next six weeks" said ]. r. Clyne,
member of parlia ment the other
day to DR.. Mcnamara, the minis
ter of labor. in the course of dis
cussion with labor leaders, "a sit
uation may develop that will
threaten the life of the state it
self"
There is said to be an ugly tenn
per among many of the 1000, 900
or more unemployed over what
they regard as dilatoriness on the
part of local and governmental au-
thorities in taking steps to meet
the situation adequately. About
100000 of these idle men are in
London.
Homeless and destitute, they
have seized about thirty suburban
public libraries, baths and assem-
bly, halls. From some of these they
have been forcibly elected by the
police and this has caused more ILL
feeling.
Plan "Direct Action"
Delegates from employed COM
mittees In a score or more Of Lon
don boroughs haSe recently formed
q central council. which Is holding
secret meetings at which direct ac-
ton" is planned.
What form the "direct action"
will take is not divulged by the
leaders, who proclaim their inten-
ton to act independently of the
labor party or trades unions; but
Dennis Jennett. the chairman of
the committee, told the Associated
Press representative they will be
of a startling nature.
"Seventy-five per cent Of the
London unemployed are ex-service
men," Jennett said. I'VE are not
for loot, but we want work pro-
vided at once. Populations to cab
met members result in vague
promises and don't help us. Re-
lieving acute distress is by nc
means our full program. We want
to reshape the relations between
capital and labor. Workers of all
trades must be admitted to control
of enterprises. We propose tC
make this our main issue. and get
all workers to adopt this idea
This we realize, is not attainable
without a hard fight, and we are
certain there will be big socia
upheaval this winter"

WILLIS ASSERTS
New Senator From Ohio
Pays High Tribute to
President ELECT In An Ad-
dress Delivered in N. Y.

New York, Jan. 1b.-Presi-
dent-elect Harding will not be con-
trolled by that non-existent fig
ment of a political brain. the So
called senate oligarchy. and no in
dividual, faction. clique or ring can
speak for him." declared Frank B.
Willis, who has been appointed
senator from Ohio. in an address at
the annual dinner of the Ohio So
ciety of New York.
Paying tribute to Mr.. Harding,
Mr.. Willis, who will succeed the
president elect in the senate, said:
II am not his mouthpiece, nor
will any other man have that
honor. His acts as a great Ohio
president will speak for themselves.
He will welcome information. To
him a bricklayer and a bank presi-
dent will have the same rights"
Mr.. Willis said the new admins
tration will perform ito the fullest
every international obligation; will
cooperate with all other civilized
people to reduce ornaments, but 1t
will not surrender American SOW
ereignty to any foreign council.
at will not consent to fasten the
obligation to go to war upon one
single American soldier Ly any au-
thority in this world other than the
government Of our own country.
America will fulfill its obligations
but our own government must be
the Judge of the manner and meth
IA of perfOrmanca
Mr.. Willis asserted that "before
Europe can properly raise questions
regarding performance of Amer
ica's obligations to the world, 1T
should at least begin to think OF
discharging its obligations to us.
Warning against increasing
Americas financial burden, Mr..
Willis set forth the need of rigot
Gus economy in public expenditures,
asserting that the president-elect
had set a splendid example in an
inexpensive inaugural.
Among guests at the dinner was
Senator-elect r. H. Cameron, OF
Arizona.
1t was recalled that at last
years dinner President-elect Hard
| ing was the guests of honor and
the late George w. Perkins, in in
