REPORT PROFIT
Revenue Men Checking Up On
Realty Transfers.

Boise, Idaho. Investiga atIons
conducted by field deputies OF the
internal revenue service indicate
that hundreds OF taxpayers in !, the
district Of Idaho have neglected,
Intentionally or Otherwise, 70
include as income in their returns
for 1918, 1919, 1890. 1921 and l9a2,
profits realized from the sale Of
real estate, according to Collector
Evan Evans, who several weeks
ago ordered rigid probe to be
made OF suspected evasions Of
income regulations.
In order to close up the govern
ment tax net, the collector has
ordered that transcript be made
of all doubtful transfers. A caro-
full investigation will be made OF all
these files, to determine whether
or not the sales involved have been
reported upon the income tax
returns. Collector Evans suggested
that all persons who failed to
include the profit realized from
real estate sales call at his oflice,Lr
lie amended returns, as it is the
policy of the revenue department
not to assert heavy penalties when
the disclosures OF failure to include
income are voluntarily made. by
taxpayers.
at is my belief that the failure
of many taxpayers to include real
estate profits in their returns was
due to an erroneous Interpretation
of the income tax laws, and to mis-
leading publicity that was givsn
out prior to the ruling of the Unit
ed States supreme court, hoIdifg
that such gains were taxable
income under the revenue laws"
Collector Evans stated. te
In cases where the taxpayer
does not voluntarily disclose items
of income that were omitted, and
where the gains from real estate
.lcs have not been reported, The
collector said that II would be nec-
essary to assere full penalties.

To Check Scarlet Fever.

The village trustees held a
special meeting Monday evening
and voted to prohibit public gath
erings until next Monday in order
to prevent spread of scarlet fever,
two mild cases of which were re-
ported in town. Further action
will then be taken if deemed neces-
sary. The board also requests
that parents cooperate by keeping
their children from copgregating
anywhere or lettering about the
streets and public places.
In response to inquiry at the
meeting, DR.. F. Wenz said there
were two mild cases of the fever IN
town, both under quarantine, and
that he had knowledge of children
in two families in the country
being i'll with the disease.
The meeting was largely attend
ed, all the members Of the town
board and about fifteen others
being present, and the matter was
fully discussed before action was
taken.
After the board adjourned, the
chautauqua guarantors met and
inasmuch as public gatherings are
prohibited for period covering
the greater part and probably all
of the time of the fve-night festival
to have opened last evening, and
the dates here would have to be
cancelled by the Ellison White
company, it was voted by all the
guarantors present and represented
that they offer the company
contract for the 1924 festival under
the same conditions as the contract
this year and with at least the
same number of signers.
Much regret was expressed by
the chautauqua signers at the loss
of this years festival, said to be
the best the Ellison White Chau--
tauqua company has offered in four
years.

ANCHORAGE, Nov. 2O.-This city today formally launched its fight to bring the seat of the Third division district court from Valdez to Anchor age. Thomas c. Price, president of the Chamber of Commerce last night appointed Jerry C. Murphy anu Arthur Thompson as members of special committee to prepare data to De sub mitted. Anchorage will appeal that court headquarters will be brought to the railroad metropolis, first, in the interest of economy and second be- cause the proposed translel would division.
 According to the chamber the fight will be vigorously prosecuted in the National capital, and all civic forces in the city are backing the movement
 If it is demanded Anchorage is said to be ready to contribute a part of the expense Of providing a building to house the government officials.
 There are many good reasons why the court headquarters should be re- moved say Anchorage citizens. They are: First, there are hardly enough people left in Valdez to fill grand and petit jury panels.
 Second, the expense of holding a court term in Anchorage is about half what it costs the government to hold term in Valdez.
 Third, and the mot important. it would mean the addition of about $100,000 in business each month to Anchorage, the center of the govern ment's railway development
 Fourth, the expense of transporting prisoners and witnesses in Valdez in cases which do not originate there, multiplies court costs and would be materially reduced if the court head quarters were removed
