REVENUE Commissioner
EXPLAINS LIABILITIES
Tells Under What Circum'
stances the Revenue Bureau
Will Answer Inquiries

Following is statement from Com
missioner of Internal Revenue David
H. Blair relating to the procedure
with respect to inquiries received by
the Bureau Of Internal Revenue re-
garding tax liabilities:
"Requests are being received daily
for rulings and advice upon abstract
cases or prospective transactions In
volving questions of income tax and
profits on liability. These requests arc
so numerous and the insistcnce on
prompt action so great that it seems
advisable at this time definitely to
outline the bueraus policy which will
govern the consideration of these re-
| quests
"The Revenue Acts Of 1918 and
1921 depart widely at many points
from prior law or practices and have
given rise to new questions of such
Importance, complexity, and number
that the resources Of the bureau are
no more adequate to advise taxpayers
promptly of. their present liabilities
arising out Of past transactions. 1t is
impossible to answer every question
which the invention or ingenuity of
the inquirer may device without neg
lectinig the fundamental duty of de-
termining tax liability upon the basis
Of actual happenings. Under these
circumstances, the illustrative nee
essity is obvious of giving precedence
over abstract or prospective cases
to actual cases in which the tax
payer desires to know what are his
immediate liabilities under the law.
1T will be the policy of the bureau
not to answer any inquiry except un-
der the following circumstances:
1.-THE transaction must be complet-
ed and not merely proposed or
planned.
"The complete facts relating to
the transaction, together with alb.
stracts from contracts, or other docu.
ments, necessary to present the com.
plete facts, must be given.
"The names Of all the real parties
interested (not dummies used in the
transaction) must be stated regard.
less of who presents the question
whether attorney, accountant, tas
service, or other representative"

THE DOG LICENSE SITUATION

The most recent developments in
the dog license situation are as fol-
lows:
County Clerk Ranney has sought
the advice of the Commissioner Of
Agriculture and the Attorney-Gen-
eral and has been instructed to issue
dog licenses and tags whenever ap-
piled for. This, however does not
relieve the owner from the penalty,
if his dog has been harbored or al
lowed to run at large since Jan. 1
without license and tag.
County Attorney Otto c. Martin
announces that ii has been decided
that the Quarterly Court does not
have juridiction of otfenses against
the dog law, but that the Grand Ju-
ry will be asked to indict such Of
tenders. However, if delinquent
owners will take out licenses before
the Grand Jury begins consideration
of the matter, their cases will not
be put before it.
