The following article. which Is
the second one Of series of articles
issued by the Bureau of Internal

the income tax law.

1921 Income Tax Facts You Should
Know
Due, in the majority of cases. tC
misunderstanding of exemptions
more than 10000 persons last veal
were assessed a nomina: penalty OF
from s. to SO for failure to file an
income tax return for 1919, although
their income for that year was not
taxable.
The revenue act provided q per
sonal exemption of $1,000 for single
persons, $4,000 for married persons
and heads of families, and an add1-
tional exemption of $500 for each
person dependent upon the taxpayer
for chief support, il such person is
under Is years of age or incapable OF
self-support. The delinQuents last
year were persons whose incomes ex-
actly equaled the amount of the al
lowable exemptions and who consid-
cred it unnecessary to file a return
and others whose income, because OF
dependents was nontaxable but who
nevertheless were required by law to
make returns. The Bureau of In
ternal Revenue therefore, this year
is emphasizing the fact that the
requirements to file a return are
based solely on a persons marital
status and the amount of his or her
income for 1890. Single persons
with net incomes for 1920 of $1,000
or more and married persons with
net incomes of $4,000 or more must
file a return regardless of whether
there incomes are nontaXable.
Returns OF Married Persons.
The exemption of $4,000 allowed
! married persons applies to the COM
(bined income of husband and wife,
to which must be added the income
of dependent minor children A
common error is for both husband
and wife to claim the exemption,
which is designed to cover essential
living expenses. This exemption
may be claimed by either or may be
apportioned between them as they
may elect.
If the income of either husband
or wife for the year 1920 was more
than $4,000 each should file a sepa-
rate return. This is for the purpose
Of computing correctly the surtax on
income in excess of $4,000, which
applies separately to the net income
of husband and wife, and not to the
combined net income.
The surtax rates, which apply on
ly to net income in excess of $4,000
are computed without benefit of the
personal exemptions. Many tax
payers make the mistake of comput-
ing tax on the combined net income
of husband and wife, to their own
disadvantage. AS an illustration in
the case of a husband whose net in
come was 81 900 and that of his wife
$4,000 the total normal and surtax,
If the income were combined, would
amount to $3.50, whereas if comput-
ed on the income of each would
amount to only $3.50. In the nrst
instance, deductiDg the PERSONA
exemption of $4,000 from the COM
bined income of $1,000 thu tax Is on
the remaining $1,000. Al the rate
of 4 per cent on the first $4,000 ana

Fans Who Saw Morse Girl
Beat Mile. Lenglen Say
She is Best.
BY JACK NEIOCK-

FORREST HILLS. Aug. 17-Molla
Bjurstedt Mallory is the greatest
woman tennis player in the world.
This was the verdict Wednesday Of
thousands Of ardent devotees Of the
net game who Tuesday saw the
Morse girl sweep Mile. Suzanne

Technically, Mile. Lengleu may
still be the international champion.

grim, determined and brilliant NoIIa

Mile. Lenglen's sudden and de-
pressing action in quitting the court
came like a bolt from a clear sky.
She pleaded inability TO continue the
match owing 30 a sudden recurrence
Of after-effects from an attack OF
bronchitis and was led TO the club
house coughing and weeping hys-
terically. The one regret of tennis
fans today lies in the fact that Nile.
Lenglen did not finish the match.
The French girl admittedly did not
play her best game Tuesday The
writer saw Suzanne in several
matches during the recent Olympic
games in Antwerp. and it can be said
without hesitation that the Lenglen
who faced Mrs. Mallory was not the
Lenglen of 1919.
At her best, however, she could
not have beaten Mrs. Mallory Tuas-
day. Since the Morse girl has come
into prominence in the tennis firma-
ment this writer has seen her in sew
eral Of her most brilliant victories.
but never before has she displayed
the dash and brilliance that was hers
against Lenglen.
As a result of the Mallory-Lenglen
match the women's saith national
championship will be fought out TO
a finish among American players
with the Morse girl a prime favorite
to retain her title.

ANN ARBOR. Mich, Aug. IT,
Ray Fisher, baseball coach at the
University of Michigan. believes he
has a big league manufacturing
plant.
Major league scouts are going to
spend lot OF time looking over my
ball teams in future before carrying
a spyglass around the Minors" says
Fisher.
Colleges can develop big 1eaguers
quicker than the minors, because
players are taught TO think inside
baseball. The minor league school
leaves the players to shine or fade
with their own ability or faults"
Michigan finished second in the
Western Conference this spring af-
ter winning three titles.
Under Fisher, the former Red
pitcher, the school should turn out
more winners.
George Sisler, st. Louis Brown
star, is a Michigan man. John La
van, shortstop Of the Cardinals, got
his start at Ann Arbor. And Slick
er" Parks, captain Of the 1920 VOL
VERNE nine, is getting a tryOut with
Ty Cobb's Tigers.
