TAX FACTS

The following statement is issued
by Collector of Internal Revenue,
Evan Evans, of the District of Idaho.
ITO save themselves the time and
trouble, and, in many cases. unnec-
essary expenditures, taxpayers hay-
ing business with the income tax unit
of the Bureau of Internal Revenue
at Washington and desiring confer
ence with officials in connection
Herewith, are advised to ask for such
conference in advance.
A number of taxpayers and their
representatives appear at the income
tax unit with appointment, and ask
immediate hearings. Frequently the
conference cannot be held at once for
the reason that the papers and infor-
nation relating to the case must be
assembled or the proper official may
be otherwise engaged, The result is
a delay OF day or two, and added
cost to tho taxpayer in the way of
hotel bills, etc.
Requests for conference should be
addressed to the Commissioner of In
ternal Revenue, Washington, D. c.,

PLAN FOR AMORTIZATION
OF BONDS Is APPROVED

Pocatello-School districts in Ban
mock, Madison and Bonner counties
have approved the new plan for
amortization OF school bonds as adj
vanced and approved by the state
board OF education. AS prescribed
under the statutes, school bonds Oh
common school districts must be re-
deemed in part each year after the
first eighteen months, One-twenti-
eth OF the principal on each bond
must be paid annually with interest,".
AS modified by the board the plan
will be to pay one or more bonds In
full each year and pay only the in
terest OF the bonds remaining. The
attorney general has ruled that this
plan meets the spirit of the law and
will permit of more ready sale to
bond-purchasing companies.
District No. AZ is the first district
to be affected by the ruling, as this
district has just issued bonds for
$4,000.

r TNDER the American valuation
plan, as proposed in the Ford
ney Tariff bill, an equalizing
effect upon the commerce of the
United States with all nations with
which we trade would be one of the
first and most desirable results, ac-
cording to William Burgess, member
of the United States Tariff Conn
mission.
A similar article sold in Japan at
SO cents, in Germany at so cents, in
England for 81, under the present
foreign valuation plan means, at a
tariff rate of so per cent, that Japan
would have to pay Is cents in duty,
Germany 80 cents and England SO
cents. Under the proposed American
valuation, Mr.. Burgess points out
that the importation of this article
would cause each of the exporting
countries to pay exactly the same
amount of duty. regardless of cost
of production.
Thus, he shows, the present dis
elimination in favor Of low-cost
countries would be removed. This
also would result in helping our
debtor nations to pay their debts to
lis. Our debtor nations are Great
Britain, France and Italy
How are we going to help these
nations TO pay their debts by charg-
ing them a greater amount of duty
than we charge Germany and Japan p
Mr.. Burgess asks.
Certain large importing houses and
dealers making greater profits on inn
ported merchandise than they think
they can make on domestic goods,
are the real opponents of the Ameri-
can valuation plan, the tariff expert
declares.
He answers the argument that
American manufacturers could raise
their prices so as to compel importers
to pay higher amount of duty by
citing the following example:
Assuming foreign article to be
worth 20 cents and the American
article is selling at 81, it would re-
quire 3096 Of the American selling
price to equalize the difference be-
tween the foreign and domestic val
ues. Now, if the American manu-
facturer raises his price to SIPS,
800 duty on this value would be
3711 cents, the foreign value remain
ing at 20 cents, the landed cost would
be 20 cents plus 371z cents, which
! gives the foreign article the advan-
tage of 1877 cents in this market
The American valuation plan places
an automatic check on American
manufacturers doing this very thing

WILLIAM BURGESS
Member U. s. Tariff Commission


Mr.. Burgess disputes estimates of
increased selling prices of commodi,,
ties which the Women's Consumers,
Committee recently declared would
result from application of the pro-
visions of the Fordney tariff bill.
The increases were estimated at
from 609o for wooden dress goods to
720Io for women's cotton gloves. lie
says: Taking their own figures as
a basis and applying the rates OF the
Fordney bill, we find that the only
additional cost to the retailer would
be the additional amount of duty re-
quired under the Fordney bill, be,
cause all other costs and overhead
charges remain the same"
The question, Mr.. Burgess con-
cludes, is simply whether customs
duties shall continue to be assessed
upon the foreign market value OF
goods or upon the value in the
United States, and asks whether II
is easier to obtain information upon
their value from over ITO different
foreign countries of exploration,
with no legal power to secure such
values, than it is to get this intorr1ia-
ton in America with the full power
Of the Government to compel sncn
information.

FARM BUREAU PRESIDENT
ANSWERS CoKEVILLE PAPER

The following article was sent to
tho Cokeyille Register for publica-
tion last week, says the Independent:
Editor Cokeville Register.-The ar
ticle appearing in recent issue OF
your valuable paper regarding pro.
posed change OF mail route Alton to
Cokeville to via Montpelier, has just
been handed the writer for attention,
and were it not that you feel and i'm
ply that / have made untrue state
ments in the article appearing for
the Lincoln County Farm Bureau
over my signature and also for a
very warm spot in my heart for any
thing and everyone connected with
Wyoming, this letter would never
have had existence.
For myself and associates want
to assure you that real, hearty good
will exists toward yourself and Coke
vile and for the road lying between
us.
1T may be good to know that the
good road connecting Alton ana
Cokeville ownes its inception and the
large part of it's accomplishment to
Senator Kendrick, then governor of
Wyoming, committee of five, State
Senator Clarence Gardner, Osborne
Lowe, o. T. Papworth, T. III. Roberts
with tho writer as chairman ap-
pointed by him and coupled with the
generous good will and support of
your fellow townsman Mr.. Joe Kin
ney and the county commissioners.
This same loyalty and good will to-
ward you and yours and the gooo
road referred to still exists, and will
continue until that road extends on
through to the Yellowstone Park,
and then some.
we cannot afford to develop an
tagonism when such an undertaking
meaning SO much to you and us, lies
before US. We must be united ana
together make the road on to the
park an accomplished fact. You can
rest assured we are with you in the
undertaking.
Nov just a few words to set you
right on the mail route proposition:
Salt Lake to Alton enjoyed a second
zone rate for quite while based as
you say on The way the crow flies.
The ruling, however, authorized by
Sec. 43. Par. d. page IA, U. s. POST
al Guide for July 1921 changed this
to the third zone. Salt Lake via
Cokeville to Alton is 315 miles; via
Montpelier it is 274 miles, giving
this rate third zone instead OF second
zone rate. The on-Montpelier
roads enjoys the benefits of gov
eminent road building project anQ
even at the present, with only hall
LOT this new road built, it is equal
mile for mile, with the exception or
the wear of the very heavy traffic,
Ito the Afton-Cokevil1e road and is
miles shorter.
I'VE have no complaint to make
against tho present mail contractors
nor tho road, only its length and
j lack OF winter travel The necessity
and desire for prompt mail service
and Is mile shorter road material
ly assists this: together with an
able and efficient delivery of parcel
post which an already heavy freight
traffic is ready to take over and as
sist. are our only reasons for desiring
amy change.
THE South road will undoubtedly
always be the Automobile route and
the Montpelier road the heavy traffic
route, In any event we most as
suredly need both.
II I'm the interest of good will, good
roads and good service, remain,
Yours very truly,
