Income Tdrpdying
 Rush NOU Is On

Little Rock, March With mid night of March l5, the last minute in which income tax returns may be filed, taxpayers are burdening the working force of the collector of internal revenue for the district of Arkansas, whose office is in the Donaghey building, with a rush to file returns, according to Andrew V. Smith, chief clerk in the office.
 From 30 to 10 clerks are em- ployed opening mail, sorting checks and filing returns. Twelve men and women are kept busy assisting taxpayers fill out blank returns. Throughout the state 20 field dep uties travel to assist in the work. Until a week ago comparatively { few returns were being filed, but since then returns have increased so 1 heavily in volume that 1t may be necessary for the offices clerical staff to work overtime to meet the rush.
 All returns probably will be list ed by the end of March, to be audited in April and May The | quarters work will be completed by June, when another quarters work will be taken up. Search for tax evaders continues throughout the year.
 When they are discovered, those who failed to file return are com pelled to pay their original tax plus 4 25 per cent increase; and in addi- ton, to pay a fine, depending or the seriousness of their offense.
 Claim adjustment is in charge oi Chief Clerk Smith Since the rush started he has handled several thou. sand claims, he said. Refund claims made when taxpayers discovered they had paid too much during some preceding year when the income ta, was in force, form a heavy part oi the work.
 Comedy and pathos sometimel mingle in the days routine. One

enforcement of the Versailles treaty,
especially its at least partial acceptance
OF the British viewpoint on important
questions regarding Germany, did not
meet with approval. The Republique
Franchise sums up this feeling on the
part Of the people by saying:
"All we ask Is that the new premier,
whoever he may be, shall not take Mt.
Lloyd George as his foreign minister.
In political circles there Is unanimity
on two points-that the crisis must be
settled as soon as possible, and that the
new foreign minister must be man OF
experience, reputation and authority.
All other considerations appear to be
secondary.

anccs Of support from all quarters. Nj.
