Coast Lines Schedule of Pay and Conditions Is Accepted by En- ginenen; Trainmen Expected to Make Agreement Shortly
CFrom Frlnny,s palIyl

Enginemen and trainmen operating the four passenger trains over the
 Phoenix to Ash Fork line of the Santa Fe are entering into an agree. mcnt with the general manager tc place the old Peavine system on the coast lines schedule of pay and work ing conditions, it was made known yesterday by w. P. Arntz, superin- tcndent of the line, now designated the fourth district of the Albuquer- que division.
 In matters of employment and pay, Mir Arntz said, former conditions on the Peavine "werc an affair of home rule"
 There were certain pies to be cut ill exchange for less pay" Mir. Arntz said. The men are now getting ap- proximatcly the same rate of pay as is paid over the entire coast lines, with the exception of a bonus for going over the mountain. This IS known as compensated rate. It is made because ill coming up the mountain the trains travel slower, with the effect of more mileage"
 The enginemen, including engineers and firemen, have now accepted the coast schedule, which requires them to make mileage approximately equal to the other lines. The men are running from Phoenix to Ash Fork with a 12-hour layover and re- turning to Phoenix with a 36-hour ayover, thus making the IS hours.
 Trainmen working on the four pas sengers are at present considering ef- 'ecting a similar agreement with the general manager Conductor P. L. Turner yesterday conferred with MT. Arntz concerning the matter, and it $ expected that such an agreement will be made shortly.

TWO KINDS OF GROSS
 INCOME ARE IN LAW

Numerous inquiries have been re- ceived regarding the proper interpre-
 tation Of section z23 of the revenue act of 1921, which provides that each individual whose gross income for 1921 was $5,O00 or over shall file q 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 t. of whatever kind and in what ever form paid, or from professions, vacations, trades, business, commerce or sales or dealings in property, whether real or personal, growing out of the ownership or use of or interest in such property; also from interest, rent, dividends, securities or the transaction of any business car ried on for gain or profit or gains oT 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, a merchant may have gross receipts amounting to $l0,0O0, but the cost of goods sold amounts to %,000. He has no other income. The statutory gross income would be $3,000. In case the other deduc- tions allowed him for business ex- penses, taxes, interest, bad debts, etc. amount to $2,500, his net income would be $500. No return of income is required ill this case.
 A lawyer who is married and liv- ing with his wife has gross receipts in the form of fees amounting to 5000 and his necessary business ex- pen5es amount to $4,200, leaving a net income Of only $l,800 A return will be required in this case, as tax payers gross income as well as gross receipts is $6,000.
