INDUSTRY Showing
PROSPERITY TREND

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.-The
commercial pages of the daily press
continue to tell the story of returned
"pros% rity. Increased bank clearings,
increased building permits, increased
orders for steer, increased output of
pig iron, are all indisputable evidences
of a &Ound foundation for the opaim-
ism that exists throughout business
circles in the United States.
4 resume of the facts in these and
other particulars gives an interesting
and encouraging picture of the up
ward swing of industry and trade. Al
the end of January, 1928, the United
States Steel orders aggregated S.
$4,000 tons as compared with 4,241.-
600 tons at the same time a year ago,
Pig iron production during the month
o. December, 1922, amounted to 81
229 900 tons, as compared with 1854

In 1876 cities for which building sta

pared with 1921 $4,000 in the CORE
spending month of 1922. From every
part of the country reports are re
ceived of scarcity of labor in all the
building trades, with wages of skilled
labor as high as $12 and even $l5 {
day. There is ready demand for the
lumber output.

With a steadily increasing export
trade, and a materially improved sit
uation in our foreign relations as a
result of the adjustment of the most
important of our foreign loans, the
outlook for foreign commerce during
the present year is all that could be
desired. The improvement in for

danger of foreign controversies, the
promotion of peace in the western
hemisphere, the reduction of federal
expenditures, all confirm the evidence
OF our domestic situation that we are
we'll started on an era of industrial
and commercial prosperity.

1920, recently issued, show that ap-
proximately $4,000 women filed re-
turns for that year, claiming the
$1,000 exemption allowed a single
person. The amount of net income
reported by those ONE was $1,264,-
995, 727. In addition there were filed
132,181 returns by women claiming
an exemption of $4,000 as the head Of
a family, "a person who supports and
maintains in n household one or
more individuals closely related to

these women for the year 1920

December 81, 1922, may claim a per-
sonal exemption of only $1,000. A
divoxcee, or wife who continuously
and without necessity makes her home
apart from her husband, is classed as
a single person, and entitled only to
the $1,000 personal exemption.
Whether a man and wife are div
ing apart" for the purposes of the in
come tax law, depends upon individu-
al circumstances. A wife who sup
ports an invalid husband in a sanitar-
ium may claim the exemption allowed
a married couple. The separation is
of necessity.
The revenue act does not prescribe
the amount of the exemption allowed
a married woman living with her hus-
band. Married couples living together
are granted an exemption of $1,000
or $4,000, depending upon whether
their combined net income is 5000
or less, or more than $4,000. Hus-
band and wife may make separate re-
turns, or they may make a Joint re-
turn. In the event separate returns
I made, either husband or wife may
claim the exemption allowed married
persons, or they may divide it between
them in such proportion as they may
choose.

turns ends at midnight, March Is.

Demand For Goods
Sends Prices Upward

New York, Jan. 26-Dun's tomor-
row will say:
AS was expected, January has been
good month for business. After a
holiday lull that was less evident
than usual, activities broadened in
different quarters and many orders
have been placed at enhanced prices.
Following a 16 per cent advance last
year, the general wholesale price
level has risen further, and the wide
margin of increases in Dun's list
again is a feature this week. The
larger demand for goods obviously
is a factor in the upward price move
ment, but there is the contributing
element of restricted supplies in
some instances, and production costs
are maintained on a high basis.
While labor troubles do not now Seri-
ously interfere with operations, a
shortage of workers has become q
handicap in some industries and the
question of making deliveries as
specified enters more sharply into
manufacturers calculations. Inabil-
ity to give assurance of carly ship
mentS tends to prevent the develop
ment of some orders, and reports of
the Withholding of additional offer
ings or the limiting of commitments
by producers are being heard more
frequently.

As some indication of the interest
being evinccd in the Sears-French bout
at City hall next Tuesday night. 1T
was learned Friday that a block of 40
ringside seats have been taken for the
use of legislators. In addition TO this
there has been a brisk demand BY local

baseball fans who know that all sur
plus funds are to go toward the fund
for team next spring.
Several local boys who saw service
in the Yankee Division overseas saw
AL Scars when he fought several times
in France. They all agree he is some
boy and welcome the opportunity to
again see him in the roped arena. In
