PROFITS FROM CAPITAL
 ASSETS RULED NOT TAXABLE

Numerous inquiries have reached the Bureau of Internal Revenue rel ative to the decision of United States District Court of Connecticut in the Brewster case, in which it was held that gains and profits realized from the sale of capital assets is not taxable income. The United States Attorney for Connecticut has been authorized to perfect an appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States for a re- view of the decision. Since Congress, under the provisions of the income tax Acts of 1913, 1916 and 1918, has directed the taxation as income of such gains and profits, the bureau will continue to collect the tax there on, unless and until the Supreme Court shall hold that provision of law to be unconstitutional.
 The same question is involved in the Eldorado Ryerson cases which were argued in the Supreme Court some weeks ago. A decision in these cases undoubtedly will settle the gen. eral question. In view of the severe penalties provided by law for false and fraudulent income tax return, tax payers are warned not to omit from their returns for the year 1920 such gains and profits.

HOUSE ASKED TO REWARD HEROISM
 OF ARIZONA MAN

WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 11.-A dramatic appeal to the house to re- ward the heroic war exploit of Lieut. Edward V. Isaacs, U. s. N., who step forward in another mans place to be- come prisoner on board a German submarine after his ship, the Presi- dent Lincoln, had been torpedoed was made today by Representative Eagle, Democrat, of Texas. The speaker said Isaac's record would stand out as one of the most daring feats of the world war.
 "When the submarine captain de- manded an officer prisoner said MT Eagle, "Isaacs walked forth and an- nounced that his commander, Percy w. Foote, now aide to the secretary of the navy, probably had perished and he was ready to go. For eleven days while a captive of the U-boat he learned facts about the German navy's plan of operations which were of the utmost importance to the allied fleet.
 With this in mind, he escaped at the risk of his life," MT. Eagle continued, land was so badly wounded and beaten that now, at the age of 29, he is phy- sically unable to stay in the navy.

INCOME TAX FACTS
 YOU SHOULD KNOW

Frequent inquiries are received by collectors of internal revenue from storekeeper and other business men as to whether the taxpayer in business for himself may deduct from his gross earnings an amount of salary paid to himself. Wages or salary drawn by a taxpayer from his own business are more in the nature of charge out of profits than a charge against profits. If deductible they would merely be added to his income and the effect would be to take money out of one pocket and put it in another. There fore, claims for such deductions are not allowable.
 Salaries paid to minor children em- ployed in the conduct of a taxpayers business are not allowable deductions. If however, a son or daughter has at tained majority, or is allowed free use of their earnings without restriction, A reasonable amount paid as compen- sation for their services may be claim ed.
 A farmer who employs man to as- sist in the operation of his farm may deduct from the gross income the amount paid for such services. Like wise, if he employs a woman whose entire time is occupied in taking care of the milk, cream, butter, and churns, if her services are devoted entirely to the preparation and serving ot meals furnished farm laborers and in caring for their rooms, the compensa- tion paid her is an allowable deduc- tion. If, however, she is employed solely in caring for the farmers own household no deduction can be made.
 In arriving at net income upon which the tax is assessed, deductions may be made for ordinary and neces- sary business expenses. The revenue act specifically prohibits the deduction of personal, family, or living expenses. Such expenses include rent for home, wages of servants, cost of food and clothing for the family, education of children, land all items connected with the maintenance, well-being, and pleasure of the taxpayer and his family"

CONVERSATION BILLS
 BEFORE LEGISLATURE

And again, we of the good roao boosters, are disappointed. The com mittee of the Arizona senate having in charge the omnibus highway bill which is to provide the funds to keeI the road work going, last Wednes' day ordered the bill to the committee to be dressed up in legal and becom- ing phraseology, and that it then dc pass, when To and behold, some ob- streperous law makers started the fuss and the bill is still under con- sideration, with the prospects that it will be amended and possibly have many additions for appropriations made to it. One of the snags that was thrust into it was objection of Apache county to the appropriation for the highway along the Santa Fe to a connection with the Gallup, New Mexico, road, the people of St. Johns doing their little best to divert it to- ward that town and over into New Mexico near Socorro. There is no ob- jection to a road to Socorro, but there is crying need of the other highway and it is to be hoped that our legisla- tors will recognize the importance of the roadway as laid out by the state engineering department.
 Two compensation measures have been introduced in the legislature, one by Senator Curtin of this county, pat termed after the Nevada law, and the other by Senator Claypool, which pro- vides for a commission with all the commission ramifications. We are of the opinion that the Curtin bill is a good one, although the Claypool bill has the backing the State Federation of Labor. The two bills are meritor- ious and we are in hopes that one or the other may become law. Compen- sation for the injury or death of workmen or employees, no matter what the employment may be, is necessity that must appeal to everybody. Prac- tically all states outside of Arizona has some form of employees compen- sation and we hope that when the legislature adjourns this time it will have read such law into the statute books.
 Several bills have so far been pass ed one or the other house, but none of importance has gone to the gover- nor for his signature. It seems too bad that big rush of work shall be allowed to pile up for the closing days of the lawmakers, when many really important bills will be lost in the gen oro1 corox,o11o

J. OF A. HAS 40,000
 BOOKS IN ITS LIBRARY

It would be difficult to over-esti mate the value, the far-reaching use fitness and importance of the Uni versity of Arizona Library not only to it's chief aptrons-the students ir residence-but to a large and increas. ing number of persons in every coun. ty of the State.
 The present library building, which is not fireproof, contains about 40,, 900 volumes, many of which could never be replaced, and such volumes as might be secured again, were they destroyed by fire, would cost at least $150,O00. It also contains a large amount of documents and papers which have to be stored away in oth- CT campus buildings, twice the amount of stack room being needed to provide for the recent accumulation In addition to the students, for whom they are primarily intended, these books are used by the regents or those who desire to consult the records and historical material of the University by the faculty for reference in con- nection with their teaching and re- search work; by the administrative officers and other employees; and by those members of the general public throughout the State who wish spec ial information which they find it impossible to obtain elsewhere. In connection with this last-named phase of usefulness, it is interesting to note that, within the last few months, lib rary packages were prepared and sent out in answer to requests from no less than thirty-two towns situated in every county of the State.
 The Reading Room in the library building is greatly over-crowded dur ing busy hours, and many students have to be turned away, while those who find seats are disturbed by the confusion arising from the over crowded and cramped conditions. Un- avoidable disturbances is also caused by the fact that the delivery desk and catalogue stacks are in the main read ing room, an arrangement which is always found to be undesirable. To accommodate the present enrolment, the seating capacity would have to be doubled at least-probably enlarged more than that-as it has been the experience of other college libraries that spacious well-lighted, well ven tilated reading room causes the lib- rary attendance among the students to increase about fifty per cent.
 It would seem highly undesirable that another two years should be al lowed to pass without ample provision being made to meet the growing de- mand for an extension of the library benefits and for the safeguarding of the valuable material which is now housed in a non-fireproof building. Following the recent library fires and destruction of archives at Washing ton, Alabama ,and other centers, ur- gent warnings have. been sent out from Government Offices in Washing ton to call librarians and other cura- tors of valuable documents, advising them to keep up an unceasing agita- tion for fireprof buildings and stacks.
