GET YOUR INCOME TAX
STATEMENTS IN ON TIME.

Income taxpayers are advised by
the Collect of Internal Revenue,
L. M. Willcuts, that under the new
law no extensions of time for fling
income tax returns can be granted
by the Collector. In former years
the Collector, under certain circum-
stances, could grant thirty-day ex-
tension, but that authority is not
contained in the new law and re-
turns will have to be filed in all
cases by March 18th, unless the
taxpayer takes the matter up with
the Commissioner of Internal Rev.
enue, Washington, d. c., before
March 18TH So, it is important for
taxpayers to get1their returns ready
and filed on time.
Taxpayers are also advised that
there have been radical changes
made in the new. law, and the maxi
ing out of returns is going to be
more difficult than under the old
laws. We therefore urge the tax
payers, where it is possible, to come
to one of our offices and get the
help of Deputy Collectors in MAX
ing out the returns and to take the
matter up at the earliest possible,
moment. Our whole force is at
the disposal of taxpayers to help
them in this matter, but if they
wait until after March 1st, it will
be impossible to give them in
dividual attention.
: Taxpayers will be greatly pleased
with the substantial reduction in
taxes under the new law, but Just
the same, the new returns are more
complicated and need careful atten-
ton in making them out.
Taxpayers are again urged to
make returns at the earliest pos
sible moment.
The new law made no changes
whatever as to corporations.
