Internal Revenue
Returns Must Be Made

The Revenue Act of 1921 contains
TWO new and important provisions,
which are the subject of frequent
! Inquiry. The first relates to the
personal exemption allowed married
persons, and the second to the pro-
vision requiring that return be
made of gross income of $4,000 or
more.
The act provides that a marie
person, living with husband or wife,
whose net income for 1921 was
! $4,000 or less shall be allowed a per-
sonal exemption of $2500. If the
net income of such person was over
| $4,000 the exemption is $4,000. I'm
der the Revenue Act of 1918 the per-
sonal exemption allowed a married
person was $4,000 regardless of the
amount Of net income. The normal
/ tax rate remains unchanged, per
cent on the first $4,000 of net income
above the exemption and per cent
on the remaining net income
In order that an income slightly
ii Of shah net be SD b
jected to an inordinary dispropor-
| tionate tax because Of the reduction
| OF the exemption to $4,000 thereon,
! the law provides that such reduction
| shall not operate to increase the tax,
which would be payable if the ex-
eilption were $2500, by more than
the amount of the net income in ex-
cess of $4,000.
For example, on a net income Of
$5010. the tax, without this saving
clause, would be $120.40, which is 4
per cent on 5000, the amount of
net income less an exemption Of
$4,000. The actual tax is $11O.40,
computed as follows; from the net
income of $5010 is deducted $2500
leaving $2510, the 4 per cent tax on
which amounts TO $100.40. To this
is added $40, the amount Of net in
come in excess of $4,000.
The personal exemption allowed
|, married persons, apply also to the
head of family, a person who sup
ports in one household one or more
relatives by blood, marriage or
adoption.
Heretofore. person whose net in
come was less than his exemption
$4,000 if single, or $4,000 if marri-
ed was not required to file a re-
turn. Under the Revenue Act of
1921, if the gross income of an in
dividual equalled or exceeded $4,000,
or if the combined income of a mar
ried couple and that of dependent
minor children equalled or exceeded
$4,000 (gross income) a return must
be filed, regardless of the amount of
net inc ONE.
met income" is gross income, less
certain deductions. The fact that
allowable deductions from gross in
come, for business expenses, losses,
bad debts. ETC.. may reduce the net
income to an amount below the per-
sonal exemption of $1,000 or $4,000
does not alter the requirement to file
a return Of gross income, If such
gross income equalled or exceeded
$4,000.

AT Tsaratsyn, :5aratUf, Sumara, Ufa,
Orenburg and kaZan, frozen bodies
are stacked nigh awaiting burial in
trenches which workmen cannot pre-
pare fast enough for the victims Of

Of typhus contracted in the famine
area
Miss Nancy BObb and William Ken
worthy, of the English Quaker unit,
are i'll with typhus at Busueiuk, near
Saratof, and Anna Louise Strong, OF
Seattle, who is associated with the
English Quaker organization, is recov-
ering from the same malady in Mos
COW. Colonel Bell, of the American
relief administration, is convaleScing
from the disease at Ufa.
These cases have occurred among
less than fifty foreign relief workers
precautiOn to avoid contracting ty
phus. The disease is so prevalent
throughout all of the Volga region
and in Turkestan that the soviet gov
ernment has stopped all passenger
service TO and from those regions.
George Newes, of the British Save
the Children Fund, reports he saw 250
frozen bodies, many of whom were
children, buried in a trench at Sara
tof in one day. He says trainloads of
refugee children, underfed and scan
tily clad, are riding from the far nine
area in such a pitiable condition that
the living children are worse off than
the dead.
The soviet government naS - =
to grant the American relief admfnis-
tration the use of 5000 cars andl 200
locomotives, required to move the lsup-
plies which the S2O,00O,OO0 justi ap-

provide. 1t is estimated that 200 icarS
and five locomotives will be required
daily for forty days.
gh the higher officials of the
Bolshevist government are giving the

there is a spirit of criticism mani
tested in many quarters, which is sur
