In making out his income-tax re-
turn for the year 1928 the business
man, professional mar and farmer
will be required to use Form 1910,
regardless of whether his income was
or was not over $4,000. The small
Ter form, 1040A, is used for report
ing net income of $4,000 or less de-
rived chiefly from salary or wages.
All items of gross income must be
reported. In the case of a store
keeper gross income usually con-
sists of the gross profits on sales, to-
gether with income from other
sources. The return must show the
gross sales, purchases and all cost
of goods sold.
The professional man, lawyer, doc
tor, dentist, must include all fees and
other compensation for professional
services. The farmer must report
as gross income the proceeds of sales
or exchange of products raised on
the farm and the profit from the sale
of products purchased by him and
He must also report gross
income from all other sources.
Taxpayers, in order to take full
advantage of the deductions to
they are entitled, are advised
to study carefully the instructions

and $4,000 for married couples
whose net income was in excess of
$4,000. An additional credit of $40O
is allowed for each person (other
than husband or wife) dependent up
on the taxpayer for chief support if
such person is under 10 years of age
or incapable of self support because
physically or mentally defective.
The normal tax is 4 per cent on
the first $4,000 of net income in ex-
cess of the exemptions and credits
and 8 per cent on the remaining net
income.
If you are single and support in
your home one or more relatives over
whom you exercise family control,
you are the head of a family and en-
titled, in your income-tax return for
the year 1928, to the same exemption
granted a married person. These
are $4,000 if the net income was S.
900 or less and $4,000 if the net in
come was more than $4,000. In adj
dition the head of a family may claim
a $500 credit for each person de-
pendent upon him for chief support
if such person is under 10 years of
age or incapable of self-support be-
cause mentally or physically defect
i've.
For example, a son supports in
his home his aged mother and two
IA and 16 years of age. His
net income for 1923 was $4,000. He
is entitled to an exemption of ST.
500 plus a $4O0 credit for each de-
pendent person, a total of So, 300.
While he pays no tax he must file a
because his net income was
excess of $1,000.
An exemption as head of a family
can be claimed by only one member
Of a household.

Jan. 1, 1924, marked the begin
ming of the period for filing income
tax returns for the year 1923. The
period ends at midnight March Is,
1924. Heavy penalties are provided
by the revenue act for failure or
willful refusal to make a return and
pay the tax on time.
Form 1040A, heretofore used for
reporting net income of $4,000 and
less, from whatever source derived,
has been revised in the interest of
the largest class of taxpayers-wage
earner and salaried persons. Re-
duced from six pages to a single
sheet. Form 1040A is to be used for
reporting net income of $4,000 and
less derived chiefly from salaries and
wages. Persons any part of whose
income is derived from a business or
profession, farming, sale of prop
erty OF rent, though the amount is
$4,000 or less, will be required to
use the larger form, 1040. The use
of Form 1040 is also required in all
cases where the net income was in
excess of $4,000, regardless whether
from salary, business, profession or
other taxable resources.
1t being impossible to determine
at this time which form is desired,
copies of both forms will be sent
taxpayers who filed individual re-
turns for the year 1922, and may be
obtained also at the office of collect
ors Of internal revenue and branch
Offices upon written request.

$4,000 or more, and every married
couple diving together) whose net
income was $4,000 or more or whose
gross income was $4,000 or more,

all income received by the taxpayer
during the year from salary or
wages, business, trade profession or
vocation, dealing in property, inter
est, rent or dividends, or from the
transaction of any business carried
on for profit. Net income is gross

WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.-With

the National WCman's Party and

Although both are Democrats, as

And as the first women ever to
be elected to such high office it is
felt that their particnation in the
ceremonies would place the wholo
status of women, as possible future
contenders for the presidency, in
Jew and more favorable light.

America is on the eve of such

Industrial expansion, many IL
