INCOME TAX
Ii Gross Receipts for. 1921 We're
$1,000 . Return Must
be Filed.

Numerous inquiries have been
received regarding the proper in
depreciation of Section 223 of the
Revenue Act of 1921, which pro-
videS that each individual whose
gross income for 1921 was $1,000
or over shall file a return re-
CARELESS of his or her net income.
Gross income means statutory
gross income, defined by the rev.
enue act to include gains, pro-
fits and income derived from sal
aries, wages, or compensation for
personal service of whatever
kind and in whatever form paid,
or from professions, vocations,
trades, business, commerce or
sales or dealings in property,
whether real or personal, grow
ing out of the ownership or use
of or interest in such proper
ty; also from interest, rent,
dividends, securities or the trans
action of any business carried on
for gain or profit or gains or pro-
fits and income derived from any
source whatever"
Gross income does not neces-
sarily mean gross receipts. A
merchant. for instance, in COM
putting statutory gross income,
should deduct therefrom the cost
of goods sold. For example, a
merchant may have gross re-
ceipts amounting to $4,000, but
the cost of goods sold amounts
to $1,000. He has no other in
come. The statutory gross in
come would be $4,000. In case
the other deductions lowed him
for business expenses, taxes, in
terest. bad debts, ETC., amount
to $4,000, his net income would
be $500. No returns of income is
required in this case.
A lawyer who is married and
living with his wife has gross
receipts in the form of fees
amounting to $4,000 and his ne
cessary business expenses amount
to 81. 200, leaving q net income of
only $500, q return will be re-
quired in this case, as taxpayers

cause we ncHu THEM Ill. L. MUS
bHk has done lot for Askov
and community, so we certainly
cannot afford to lose him, and
was the one that pushed the
Askov National Farm Loan Asso-
citation through. If it had not
been for him we might not have
had this Association which has
saved the farmers a considerable
sum every year. 1t is not alone
those who have loaned from it
that derive benefit from the as
ISOLATION but also the outstand-
ing ones as the interest falls on
the whole line. And more, Mr.
MosbRk was the one that urged
the farmers to raise rutabagas
(which, as everyone knows has
been one of Askov's most profit
able farm products) and he also
obtained a market for them.
The Askov American has used
a language, in it's last article
about l.. MosbRk, which | would
probably use in speaking to a
person | had something against,
but never in print.
| have personally had many
arguments with Mr.. Mosb@k, but
it has, often happened that when
I needed help. | went to him and
he has never left me without do
ing what he could for me.
Mr.. MosbRk has started all our
cooperative enterprises in Askov
and so far they are all alive with
the exception of the last stallion
association in which he did not
take part. All who had shares
in same know the end of the
story. but this is just an example
to show that things can go wrong
without Mr.. MosbRk being as
sociated with same.
In the same article about
Farming the Farmers" there
was further stated that if l..
Mosbek's advice had been fol-
lowed very often. and there had
not been any other cooperators
here than him, this community
would have been bankrupt long
ago. From the above examples
we can readily see that same can
be done without L. MosbMk TAX
ing a part. There was further
stated in the editorial Of two
weeks ago that Mr.. Mosbek did
not want to show the statements
Of return the time he shipped
rutabagas for the farmers. ! was
one of those that sent rutahagas
with Mosbek that time and l
have seen a statement of the re-
turns every time | have asked

ticle there was also stated that

but / was one. and l know of
other farmers also, who asked
Mr.. Mosbek to buy produce the
same as the local buyers instead
Of shipping for the farmers, SO
he certainly can't be blamed for
his turn that time. There was
also referred to the time that
Mr.. Mosb@k employed A. b.

office helper. and stated that a
girl getting wage of SIS per
month or less could have ans

Adolf Jensen.
Editors Note-To be sure we
did not write a flowery obitu-
airy in our issue of Feb. 9th. We
were asked by Mr.. MosbRk when
he ever farmed the farmers and
so gave our version on that, and
as to the sources of information:
it is our own observations and
close contact with him through
the past seven and one-half
years. Let it be understood here
that while an error may o.cur in
any article our editorials are
not based on hearsay. but from
close observations and are given
much more thought ard study
for accuracy than for instance a
little four or five line news item
which if for no other reason than
economy we cannot always af-
ford to trace to its origin.
AS for chasing anyone out of
the community we hope that we
are not guilty of such-especial-
ly an intelligent man who is a
good fighter, and there is no dan
ger Of Mr.. MosbRk leaving on ac-
count of our write.up as he en-
joys a fight and has been through
much harder mills than this one.
Mr.. Paulsen refers tp our edi-
torial as being too severe for
publication, but it does not seem
to bother him and other friends of
Mosbek what Mr.. Mosbek wrote
in another county newspaper
and in his recent circular letter.
But perhaps a newspaperman
should be able to tolerate any
thing. However. even though
Mr.. Mosb@k wrote things which
were not complimentary to us
we fully realize that that does
not excuse US in writing any
thing we please.
As to the SOC commission per
ton on rutabagas and Mosb@k
not showing invoices we have
his own words for that which
were spoken right here in the
American office. As to the Farm
Loan Association we only wish
there was. such an organization
for printers whereby we might
borrow money at a lower rate of
interest than we are at present
paying. 1t would certainly be
to our own benefit to make use
of it. The Federal Farm Loan
Act was passed at Washington.
d. c., for all communities to
make use Of.
There might be stated much in
reply to what Mr.. Paulsen writes.
for instance where he says: Mr..
Mosbak has started all our CO.
operative enterprises in Askov.
etc" and when he refers to the
work of MosbHk's bro her-in-
law in the potato house but we
are not going to say anything
more as it seems to be causing
some animosity and we surely d.
not want to be party to starting
any factional fights or the like
We have much res~ect for Mr.
Paulsen and believe that we un-
derstand his position. He is oi
the sturdy pioneer type of men
and undoubtedly feels that he
personally has been well treated
by Mr.. Mosbek. and thinks the
American went too far. In this
connection let us say that we car
also conscientiously and truth
fully say some good things about
Mosbek but were not called up
on to do il in our article of Feb
9th. Mr.. Moshek gave us much
encouragement the first years w
were here and in every mannel
made US feel welcome in thu
community. His untiring AM
fighting spirit has been an in
spiration to many and the ex
ample he sets in having no sym
