ANYTHING OF VALUE
SUBJECT TO TAXATION

Collector OF Internal Revenue III. Il.
Graham today defined what Is con
sidered income for Federal tax pur-
poses under the revenue act OF 1921.
Ar. Graham's statement clearly de-
fines many other articles OF value re-
ceived I'm lieu ID cash which arc re-
turnable on an individual income tax
return. Various items of living fur
nlshed to employees are substitutes for
cash, and taxable as such, he stated.
as follows:
In filing their income tax returns
for the year 1921, taxpayers must re-
member that taxable income Is not
necessarily cash. Where services are
paid for with something other than
money, the fair market value Of the
thing taken In payment is the amount
to be included in income. For ex-
ample. the value OF merchandise re-
ceived by clerk OF grocery store
as part payment Tor his services must
be reported as income Compensa-
ton paid an employe OF corpora
tlon in shares of stock is to be treated
as if the corporation sold the stock. at
its market value and paid the employe
In cash
Promlssosy notes received in pay
ment for services and not merely as
security for such payment constitute
income 60 the amount Of their fair
market value. Living quarters and
meals furnished as compensation for
services are TO be reported as income.
A hotel clerk given room and his
4. a-.-
vices Is required TO report ne income
the amount he would have to pay for
board and lodging elsewhere. This
rule holds In all occupations whtre
anything of value is received.
