more were made by four persons in l920, according to statistics of in comes made public by the Internal Revenue Bureau. One of the re- turns was made by single man" undoubtedly John D. Rockefeller. who IS widower. The other three were joint returns of husband and wives.
 Of the four, two were made by residents of New York state and two by residents of Michigan The iden- tity Of those making the returns is not given. It is recognized, however, that Mir. Rockefeller is one of the New Yorkers. Admittedly, also, one Of the great incomes from Michigan was returned by Henry Ford.
 There are those who believe that both returns of $5,000,000 or more from Michigan were made by the Ford family and that the second in- come of $5,o00,0o0 from that state was returned by Edsel Ford and his wife. Those who should know about the large fortunes of residents of Michigan are at loss to make a better guess.
 The net income returned by Mir. Rockefeller is not established defin- ttely His return is grouped with those of two other persons who made returns on incomes of from s2,0O0, 900 to S3,000,000, the grand total of the three incomes being $12,9o9,1SS. MT. Rockefeller's net income in 1920, therefore, must have been not less than s6,s09.1ss. It probably was slightly in excess of S8,0OO,00o.
 This, however, does not take into consideration deductions and income from tax-exempt securities, in which Mir Rockefeller has very heavy hold tngs.
