MUST BE REAL TRANSACTIONS.

Following is statement from Com
missioner of Internal Revenue, David
/. Blair relating to the procedure with
respect to inquiries received by the
Bureau of Internal Revenue regarding
tax liabilities:
Requests are being received daily
for rulings and advice upon abstract
cases or prospective transactions in
volving questions of income tax and
profits liability. These requests are so
numerous and the insistence on
prompt action SO great that it seems
advisable at this time definitely to
outline the Bureaus policy which
will govern the consideration of these
requests.
''The Revenue Acts of 1918 and
1921 depart widely at many points
from prior law or practice, and have
given rise to new questions of such
importance, complexity, and number
that the resources of the Bureau are
no more than adequate to advise tax
payers promptly of their present liza
bilities arising out of past transac-
tions. It is impossible to answer ev-
cry question which the invention or
ingenuity of the inquirer may devise
without neglecting the fundamental
duty of determining tax liability upon
the basis of actual happenings, Under
these circumstances, the administra-
tive necessity is obvious Of giving pre-
cedence over abstract or prospective
cases to actual cases in which the
taxpayer desires to know what are
his immediate liabilities under the
law.
! 1T will be the policy of the Bureau
not to answer any inquiry except un-
der the following circumstances:
The transaction must be complet-
ed and not merely proposed or plan
ned.
"The complete facts relating to the
transaction, together with abstracts
from contracts, or other documents,
necessary to present the complete
facts, must be given.
The names of all the real parties
interested (not dummies" used in
the transaction) must be stated re-
gardless of who presents the question.
whether attorney, accountant, tax ser
vice, or other representative.

LIGHT DEPARTMENT PAYS
BIG DIVIDENDS TO CITY

In the report of the council meet
ing in Wednesdays Tidings, the
statement was made that the light
department had run several thou
sand dollars behind during the past
five years. The report should have
stated that the electric light depart
ment had given away several thou
sand dollars worth of current during
the past five years to the other de-
partments of the city
The figures, as given by Mr.. East
erling, show that better than $4,000
worth of electricity was donated to
the different branches of the city
government during the last five years
but, despite this fact, $4,000 worth
of bonds have been called in this
year as well as smaller amounts each
year heretofore. All of the replace
ments for the distributing system
have also been taken care of by the
general light fund, as there is no
depreciation fund for this purpose.

r. c. Challis has sold the Eagle
Meat market to William and Frank
Kirby, from whom he purchased 1t
about six weeks ago. Mr.. Challis is
retiring from the business because
he feels his health will not permit

itself apparent after two weeks Of
the work, resulting in his losing
from five to ten pounds in weight.

changes in the running Of the mar
ket from what it was during their
previous ownership, when the kill
ing and much of the other work was
done in connection with the East
Side meat market. The slaughtering
will now be done on the Kirby ranch
near Talent, and the market will be
run entirely Independent of the East
Side market.
G. A. Kirby took charge of the
shop Friday morning and will have
active charge of the same in the fu-
ture.

throw the officers off the track for
the time. However, after a hurried

so. PACIFIC FEEDS LARGE
NUMBER OF PEOPLE HERE

Between 800 and 400 people are
being fed daily by The Southern Pa
cific at the Depot hotel since the
dining room has been re-opened on
the "a hour basis, according to F. K
Schilling, inspector of restaurants
for the railroad company, who is in
the city temporarily. In order to
facilitate the handling Of the large
number of customers, a great many
improvements are being planned for
the dining room, including the in
stallation OF an up-to-date lunch
counter, and the partitioning off of
a portion of the large room, provid-
ing more private place for the ta-
bles. According to Mr.. Schilling, a
number of Ashland people have
formed the habit of dropping down
that way for special dinners.
Mr.. Schilling is making arrange
ments for special Thanksgiving
dinner de luxe, which will be served
from 12 O'Clock noon until 10 o'clock
in the evening, November 80. This,
he declares, will be one of the finest
that the railroad can provide.
During the war, Mr.. Schilling was
engaged in entertainment work in
many Of the mobilization and draft
camps throughout the country, and
for years was well known in comic
opera and the better musical COM
edy circles as a baritone singer.
