TREASURY DEPARTMENT
Internal Revenue Service Office of the Collector

Tacoma, Wash, Dec 12, 1921.
 The following statement is issued ny Collector of Internal Revenue Burns Poe, for the District Of Wash lrirt of Washington.
 Enactment of new revenue legis- Iaion has brought to the offices of collectors of internal revenue a flood of inquiries regarding various provisions. The Revenue Act of 1921 became effective November 23, 1921. unless otherwise provided ror
 "To avoid error in the prepara- fon of their returns and later diff .ruIurs with the Bureau of Internal Revenue. taxpayers are advised to carefully note the changes and when ,roy nrcomc effective.
 The excess profits tax is re- n.aIod as of January l, 1922. The rates for 1921 are unchanged
 "Tha surtax rates for the calen- dar year 1921 are unchanged, and range from l per cent. on the amour, of net income between $6.- 0o0 to 65 per cent. on the amount of net income in excess Of S1,OOO,- om0 For ,hc calendar year 1922 the surraN rates range from per cent on thc amount of net income be- tween S6.o0O and SI0,0OO to 50 per cent on the amount by which the upt income exceeds $2OO,OO0.
 The exemption allowed for a de ncudeut is increased from $2OO to Slu0. Married persons living with husband or wife and heads of fam uius are allowed a personal eXemp- uor of S2.5OO Gustead of $2,OOO) unless the net income is in excess ol S5.000. in which case the per souu exemption is only $2,O0O. The agt provides that in no case shall the reduction of the personal eX- emDtfon from S2,5OJ to, S2,OOO oper- ate Co increase the tax which would be payable if the exemption were S2.500 by more thLA the amount of the net income in excess of $5,0OO. This is Go overcome the disparity in tra case of two taxpayers, one of whom is just within the lower S2,- coo exemption and the other just within the higher $2,5OO exemption.
 Single persons, and married per sons not living with husband or wife. are allowed an exemption of SI00O. Nonresident aliens are al- lowed a single personal exemption of SLOOO. Persons having gross in- comes for 1921 of $5,OOO or over are required to make a return, re- gardlcss of the amount of net in- comes.
 "Proyision is made for the repeal as of January l, 1921, of the tax on stockholders of a personal service corporation as such, After that date such corporations are to be taxed in the same manner as other corpora lions.
 "The income tax on corporations for the calendar year 1922 and thereafter is increased from 1O96 to 12l4Cc. The $2,OOO exemption here torore allowed corporations is to be granted only to those corporations whose net income is $25,OOO or less.

Con had not known where his com.
ade was lodged. He became sure Of

athlrst, or for some like reason unIver-

were not holding their post Of duty,
for the stairway vas empty. A talk
with Andrew March was worth risk

In captivity. Anything was better
than these brooding medltations alone.
The fire In the young prisoners veins

ed the stairs, but at the foot of them
discovered that they had brought him
no nearer the voice. In fact. there were
other voices unpleasantly near. He
went up again and leaned over his
wall, to learn how the monkey climbed
up and down so readily. Quite certain

The stars were a cool. faint light upon
the walls which were rough-hewn. He
could distinguish the ledge Of win

ground.
he knotted the sllken cloths from
the divan in the first room and fast
ened one end Of this soft rope to the
sto1e bench. II was not difficult to let
himself down over the rim Of wall,
easing the strain by pressing his knees
into the depressions of masonry. His
toes found the ledge. He grimly hoped
that he had heard Alright, that March
was really near. The window was open,
the prayer stopped.
Hello!
The stiffness Of the whole earth
seemed to originate just at this window
ledge. Then hand touched him and
March whispered: Don't talk"
The elder prisoner moved back into
the darkness. while Con came in at
the window. Suddenly there began a
scramble, with stormy blows and
rattle. March was at grips with his
guard, having taken for granted that
Lexington meant TO attempt escape.
Con sensed this mistake, but It was
not time for explanation. He stepped
