As To Filling OF
Income Returns

Oklahoma City, Feb. 25.-The fol.
lowing is issued by Collector OF in.
ternal Revenue A. c. Alexander. dis.
trlct OF Oklahoma:
Numerous inquiries have been re-
ceived regarding the proper interpre.
tation OF Section 223 OF the Revenue
Act of 1921, which provides that each
individual whose gross income for
1921 was $4,000 or over shall file a
return regardless OF his or her net
income.
Gross income means statutory
gross income, defined by the revenue
act to include gains. profits and in.
come derived from salaries, wages,
or compensation for personal service
Of whatever kind and in what.
ever form paid. or from professions.
vocations, trades, business, COM
merce or sales or dealings in prop.
erty. whether real or personal, grow
ing out Of the ownership or sale OF
or interest in such property; also
from interest. rent, dividends, secur-
tiles or the transaction of any busi
ness carried on for gain or profit or
gains or profits and income derived
from any source whatever.
Gross income does not necessarily
mean gross receipts. A merchant,
for instance, in computing statutory
gross income, should deduct there
from the cost of goods sold. For
example, merchant may have gross
receipts amounting to 100000, but
the cost OF goods sold amounts to
$1,000. He has no other income.
The statutory gross income would
be $4,000. In case the other deduc.
tions allowed him for business ex-
penses, taxes, interest. bad debts,
etc, amount to $2,500, his net in.
come would be $500. No return of
income is required in this case.
"a lawyer who is married and liv-
ing with his wife has gross receipts |
In the form of fees amounting to
$4,000 and his necessary business
expenses amount to $4,000, leaving
4 net income of only $1,000. A re-
urn will be required in this case.

AMERICAN BIBLE SOC.
OUTLINES ITS POLICY
lBy The United Press. !

New York, Feb. 25.-he change
that has been announced in the
manufacturing policy of the Ameri-
can Bible Society seems to have
been misunderstood in some quar-
ters and the officers of the society
have issued the following statement:
The American Bible Society, con-
trary to certain reports has not
given up its publishing business in
which it has been engaged for more
than 100 years, and has had no
thought Of SO doing. 1t will CON
tinue as a publishing house, issuing
the Scriptures in more than $50
languages and dialects, having its
work done through various printing
concerns. 1t will continue to con
troll its own plants, SO as to pre-
serve the accuracy of its versions
for which it has received recogni-
tion and acknowledgment.
This change of policy in its print
ing program has been dictated hy
the fact, that the society is con-
vinced that it can do its printing
more economically elsewhere than
1t can by conducting its own print
ing establishment.
There will be an actual increase
in the society's output and this
change Of policy marks distinct
advance and is in no sense a re-
trenchment in its program of Scrip
ture publication.
The society has no thought of
moving its headquarters from New
York City. Its executive offices
continue in the Bible House, Astor
Place. New York City. The Officers
'f the society are; Churchill H.
