Largest Percentage of Income
Tax Returns Come From
That Territory.

Southern Agricultural States Are Well

in Total Returns-MiIiion-
naires Decrease.

MISUNDERSTANDING bits of in
formation relating to American in
comes are included in the Treasury
departments report covering returns
for the calend;s' year 1919, which has
just been made public.
Contrary to popular opinion the larg-
est percentage Of returns according to
population was not from the wealthy
industrial centers, but from Alaska
and the District of Columbia. The
territory's showing-17.l7 per cent
was explained by the number of in
dividuals operating their own business,
while that of the District of Columbia
1910 per cent-was believed to have
resulted from the high ratio of govern
ment employees with salaries of more
than $1,000 year.
The southern agricultural states in
variably were far down the list. Mis-
sissippi citizens made returns COM
prising only 1873 per cent of the total
population; North Carolina, 1.45 per
cent, and Alabama, LA.
New York led in total returns with

~.:.. Sources of Revenue.
The analysis made by the treasury
of the sources of income showed that
those in the S1,00O-$2,OOO class OBJ
tanned II per cent of their personal
revenue from wages and salaries, 3.S
per cent from rents and royalties, IA
per cent from dividends and AZ from
interest on investments.
This was cOntrasted with the tax
payers with incomes Of 100000 who
drew only 1874 per cent from salaries,
% per cent from partnerships, II per
cent from sale of real estate, stocks,
ETC., 6 per cent from rents and royal
ties. SO per cent from dividends and
IL per cent from interest on invest
ments. -' --- ~~--''. - '- J..@..
Deductions permitted by the govern
ment also showed a wide variance,
amounting to 7.47 per cent for incomes
between $1,000 and $4,000 and 2O43
per cent for incomes of $2,OOO,O 900 and
over.
Agriculture In Lead.
Agriculture and related industries
comprised more than 81 per cent of
those making returns, trade % per
cent and public service p.
Corporations reporting mo net in
Gomez totaled 11O,564; the aggregate
deficit in this class was 1906, 900, 900.
Seventy-one per cent of the firms en-
gagged In mining and quarrying de-
clared they had made no profit in 1919,
against 46 per cent in agriculture and
related lines and 10 per cent in tex
tiles.
Interesting changes in the financial
status Of certain taxpayers were noted
in the report. One group of 561 each
who reported incomes of under $780,
600 in 1914 was reorganized in 1910
so that only $50 remained in that
bracket; 1S9 returned incomes of up
to 100000, POS up to $1,OOO,OOO and
eight over that figure.
On the other hand 81 selected tax
payers, who paid on incomes of 81 ,0OO,-
600 and over in 1914, dwindled pro-
gressively to % in 1919; eight of those
"lost''' dropped back to the $1OO,00o
class.

The big growth has come within the
past month since the few successful
demonstrations on large scale of the
wireless telephone. Prior to this the
department conducted propaganda to
interest amateurs. to break into the
