1900 LESS MARRIAGE LICENSES

Elkton as a Gretna Green, is, ap-
parently on the wane, at least the
books at the Office of the Clerk of
the Court here, where marriage Ii
censes are issued in Cecil county,
show that during the year 1921, up
until last Wednesday, there had
been issued 384o permits to wed,
compared with SAB issued during
the year 1920, and about 1900 is
sued during the year 1919. OF the
total number Of marriage licenses
here this year 112 were to Cecil
county couples, and 316 to Mary
land couples. The financial depres-
sion is assigned as the principal
cause for the falling off in the NUM-
ber Of marriage licenses issued, but
there is another cause, probably the
real one. The Maryland Legislature
ct its last session raised the permis-
sable age OF the female to wed. with
out her parents consent. from 16 to
18 years. This requirement has
caused many couples to stay away.
Each couple. both male and female,
are required to swear to their age.
and 1t is very seldom that under-age
couples are able to deceive the alert
clerks In the local Office. The num-
Der that try is quite small, and most
OF them are caught in their act and
are refused a marriage license.

Things Necessary 10 Know In FilIIne
Blanks.

Blnmks.
/ The following statement is issued
BY Collectors Of Internal Revenue.
With the approach OF the period
for fling income tax returns, Janu-
ary l to March is, 1922, taxpayers
are advised to lose no time in the
compilation OF their accounts for
the year 1921. A new and import
ant provision Of the Revenue Act OF 4
1921 is that every person whose
gross income for 1921 was $1,000
or over shall file return regardless
Of the amount Of net income upon
which the tax is assessed. Returns
are required Of every married per-
SON living with husband or wife
whose net income was $4,000 or
over. and every single person whose
net income was $1,000 or over.
Widows and widowers and persons
separated or divorced from husband
or wife, are regarded as single per-
sons.
Net income is gross income, ldEn
certain deductions for business 4-e
penses, losses, taxes, etc. Gross in
come includes practically all income
received by the taxpayer during the
year; in the case of the wage Garner,
salaries, wages, bonuses and COM
missions: in the case Of professional
men, all amounts received for pro-
fessional services; in the cases Of
farmers. all profits from sale Of farm
products, and rental or sale of land.
In making Of income tax return
for the year 1921, every taxpayer
should present himself the follow
ing questions:
What were your profit from your
business, trade. profession or voca-
tion?
Did you receive any interest ON
bank deposits?
Have you any property fromrwhich
you received rents?
Did you receive any income in the
form of dividend or interest from
stocks or bonds?
Did you receive any bonuses dur
ing the year?
Did You make any profit on the
sale of stocks, bonds, or other prop
erty, real or personal?
Did you act as q broker in any
transaction from which you received
commission?
Did you receive any directors Zee
or trustees fee in the course of the
year?
Are you interested in any part
nership or other firm from which
you received any income?
Have you any income from royal
ties or patents?
Have you any minor children who
are working?
Do you appropriate, or have the
right to appropriate, the earnings OF
such children? If SO, the amount
must be included in the return Of
income.
Has your wife any income from
any source whatsoever? If SO, it
must be included in your return or
reported in separate return sofs /
income.
Did you hold any Office in benefit Z
society from which you received In
come?
Answers to all Of these questions
are necessary to determine whether
q person has an income sufficiently
large to require that a return be
filed, and may be the means Of
avoiding the heavy penalties i'm
posed for failure to do so within the
time prescribed.

ASSOCIATED PRESS

CANNES, France, Jan. 1O-Notifica-
tion has come to the Allied Council
meeting here that endorsement by
the British cabinet of the proposed
written pledge binding Britain to aid

tary and naval resources is expected

Both Germany and Russia have ac-

would have full powers. The prompt
acceptance is regarded as an express
ion of a sincere desire on the part of
Russia to get back not intercourse

Grifths AT Head
ASSOCIATED PRESS,

DUBLIN, Jan. 10.-Ireland was
without government last night owing
TO the failure of the Dali Eireann to
appoint a successor to Deyalera
whose resignation was accepted fol
lowing the ratification of the treaty
on Saturday by a vote of Ga to 81 amid
scenes of the widest excitement. Yes
terday motion to reflect Deyalera
head of the government lost by a
vote of SO to 90. When the final vote
was taken and Devalera saw the
treaty was ratified he left the hall
with tears streaming down his cheeks
Yesterday when defeated for reelec-
tion to head the government Devalera
announced that the whole cabinet
would go out with him. Cheering
greeted the announcement of the re
suit of the ballot but me whole as
sembly approved when Arthur Grif-
fiths and Michael Collins bestowed
tributes upon the eX-president and
urged his opponents to elect a sue
cessor. Devalera accepted his defeat
in good spirit and pledged his sup
port to the new government 80 long
as it pursues course looking to-
wards the independence of Ireland.
The hiatus in government came to
an end after the reassembling of the
Dali when Arthur Griffiths was elect
ed unanimously after Devalera and
his followers had walked out follow
ing his nomination by Collins.
Griffiths nominated the following
cabinet: Finance Michael Collins;
Foreign affairs, George Gavan Duffy
Home affairs, f. ]. Dugan; Local gov
ernment William T. Costgrave; Eco
nomic affairs, Benton O'Higgins; De
fense, Richard Mulcahy.
At the session this morning Collins
declared the formation of a provision
al government was necessary at once
to prevent anarchy.
A message was received from the
Vatican saying that the Pope rejoiced
that an agreement had been reached
President Griffiths announced that
the Dali will continue to function
until the Irish Free State is set up.
The Dali ratified Griffiths cabinet
nominations.
The Devalera faction held a session
outside the hall.

To August Senata

scenes We're enacted in the senate

Newberry presented his defense
against the charges of undue eXpendi-
lures in connection with his election
over Henry Ford.
Newberry read a carefully prepared
speech and then submitted to a cross
examination by Walsh of Montana for
half an hour. At its close Republi-
cans rushed down the aisles and
grasped Newberry's hand and congra-
tulated him. Only a single hand clap
was heard from the gallery. Demo

able or corrupt act" He said he had
been filled with establishment and re-
gret when he heard that the cam
paign had cost $4,000.

pi caused a dramatic scene when he
declared Newberry's statement that
he did not know of the expenditures
being made in his behalf to be false
as hell"
Holding a copy of the statement in
his hand, Williams said: 1T is ter
rible thing TO accuse a man of per-
