Sometime ago, says the Ameri-

the Norfalk (Nebr.) Daily News,
wrote and published a little story
which began with the query:

The query inspired the following
letter, perhaps one of the most
human and elevating documents
made public in recent years:

CAPITAL STOCK TAX
SHOULD BE PAID BY JULY 81

July 81 is the last day of filing
returns of the capital stock tax. To
avoid penalty, the returns must be
in the hands of the collector of in
ternal revenue on or before midnight
of that date. Blank forms are avail
able at the office of Collector OF In
ternal Revenue David j. Williams,
Tacoma, Washington, and the branch
Offices in Seattle and Spokane. Form
TOT is required for domestic, and
7O8 for foreign corporations.
The capital stock is a special eX-
else tax imposed on corporations
with respect to carrying on or doing
business" The tax on domestic
corporations is 81 for each LOCO or
so much of the fair average value OF
its capital stock for the preceding
year ending June 80 as is in excess
of $4,000. Foreign corporations are
required to pay tax at the rate
of 81 for each $1,000 of their capital
employed in the transaction of busl-
ness in the United States without
the benefit of the $4,000 deduction.
The tax is payable in advance, re-
turns filed in July Of this year cover
ing the taxable year beginning July
/, 1921, and ending June 30, 1922.
Returns are required of every do
mestic corporation regardless of the
par value of it's capital stock, and OF
every foreign corporation irrespec-
tive of the amount of capital en-
ploved in this country in the trans
action of its business. Certain cor
porations not organized for proht
are exempt from capital stock tax.
The class of organizations entitled
to the exemption is described in reg
ulations so, revised, copies of which
may be obtained at the office Of the
collector at Tacoma, or at the branch
offices in Seattle and Spokane.
Corporations claiming exemptions
are required to file returns setting
forth their reasons for such claims,
accompanied by evidence in support
thereof.
If. because of lack of complete
data or other reasons than illness or
absence, it is impossible to file COM
plete return on or before July 81, a
tentative return may be filed, re-
porting the approximate fair value
in order that an initial assessment
may be made, thus avoiding penalty
The penalty for failure to file re-
turn within the time prescribed IS
an added assessment of 25 percent OF
the amount due, unless it is shown
that the failure was due to reason
able cause and not to neglect.
In addition to the added assess
ment a fine of not more than $1,000

turn on time. For wilful refusal to

SUPERINTENDENT FAVORS
SCHOOL CONSOLIDATION

Consolidation of the outlying
school districts with some central
district of the county is one of the
ways that the taxpayers of Stevens
county can reduce taxes in the
opinion of W. o. Cummings, super
intendent of schools. Mr.. Cummings
returned the first part of the week
from Cheney where he attended the
state convention of county superin-
tends of schools.
Before the people can start to
think of consolidation they should
take into consideration the condi-
ton of the roads and also whether
they can secure the services of
reliable van driver. A van driver
who is capable of controlling his
charges and in giving them the
proper care that the parents desire
is a valuable asset in the problem
of consolidation.
"Cheap SERVICE" continued Mr..
Cummings, "is menace, but that
does not mean that the people in
the consolidated districts should not
use sound business judgment when
it comes to securing a reliable van
driver"
In supporting his arguments for
consolidation Mr.. Cummings cites
one instance, the allowanc the
state makes for consolidated dis
trict which is 2000 days attendance
or $3.50. This amount while coming
from the taxpayers nevertheless
would go to another district if the
districts did not join together.
Another argument to show that con-
solidation is a benefit to some COM
munities is that better and more
efficient teachers can be secured by
the efforts of the combined districts.
The present tendency of the more
efficient teachers it towards the
cities where better living conditions
and wages can be had.
According to Mr. Cummings, there
are more rural schools in Stevens
county than in most counties of the
state. The scale of wages adopted
by the county directors association
is just trife below the general
wages paid to teachers throughout
the state.
Speaking of the convention, Mr..
Cummings reported that it was a
profitable meeting. The convention
was favorable to consolidation along
the lines suggested above. The
tendency of the different districts
towards consolidation according to
the superintendents present was ia
vorable, the people realizing that it
meant reduction in taxes for them.

make a return, wilful evasion of the
tax, wilful refusal to supply infor-
nation requested by the commission
er, or attempting in any way to
evade the tax and payment when
due, the penalty is a fine of not
more than $4,000 or Imprisonment
for not more than one year or both.
With view to the prompt col
lection of the capital stock tax, and
for the convenience of the taxpayer
as we'll as the government, the
bureau suggests that corporations
submit checks with the returns for
the amount of tax due. This method
is appealing to corporations as it
lessons liability to penalty.
